    HI team, while it's not possible to include links to all outstanding invoices when sending a statement I did want to make sure you're aware of the option to include a link to Outstanding bills when emailing an invoice to customer. 

    From this link your customer will be able to see a total and the individual invoices they have outstanding to pay with you - more on this here 

  2. Ability to email payslip before the pay run is posted. This way the employee can come back to the pay clerk with any feedback on hours or allowances before the pay run is completed and filed through to myir. The reduces the need to revert the pay run before the "final" posting and payment made to employees. Reverting the pay run impacts on IRD when IRD have begun their processing as they have to do a manual amendment to pick up any changes once the pay run is re-posted. I have advised by IRD they have to make manual amendments…

  3. Export in CSV UTF-8 or excel file as opposed to CSV comma delimited. Or have the option to choose what format the file is downloaded in as opposed to it having to be csv comma delimited.

    Reasoning: We utilise characters in our Xero that currently doesnt export out correctly e.g. "青龍 香米". This problem would be eliminated if we could export the file format as either excel or CSV UTF-8. Xero as a system supports the upload of these characters and displays them absolutely fine on the webpage, which is why we have decided to move to your system, but…

  4. Ability to add freight charge fields in the sales invoice.

    Purpose: To easily show the freight cost to the customer rather than having to edit the line items.

  5. Our company's invoicing procedure comprises three steps:
    (1) invoice generation by our own custom software and also pushed to Xero through the Xero API,
    (2) direct debit payments manually added and processed via GoCardless (on their own website, not Xero's integration) for selected invoices, and
    (3) invoice reconciliation in Xero. This process is jeopardized when any alterations are made to the invoices in any of the systems (our database, Xero, or GoCardless), causing inconsistencies and the need for corrective credit notes.

    We primarily use our custom software for invoice generation and management (90%) and occasionally create manual invoices in Xero…

  7. Add a date option on the Taxes and Filings tab to add the PAYE payment date. This would easily show if the payment has already been set in advance without having to log into internet banking to double check.

  8. Option to automatically apply or allocate existing credits to future repeating invoices. When the client receives the invoice, it will be marked as a PAID invoice because the credit has been already applied in Xero. But only if they choose to apply the existing credits instead of a refund.

    Purpose: Saves time in manually creating an invoice to apply for the credits

  9. I understand the ATO requires you to enter 2FA daily, but that doesn't mean the tickbox should uncheck itself every day.

    If I tick trust this device on Monday and login using 2FA, I can then login without 2FA for 24 hours.

    After that 24 hours, I need to login using 2FA again AND I have to tick the trust this device box again to get another 24 hour reprieve.

    Let us tick the box or another box that will remember our choice ongoing. So each day I only have to login using 2FA again but my choice to trust…

  10. Get rid of this stupid MFA on EVERY sign in.
    It used to be monthly which was bad enough, now it is a constant pain having to use an authentication device just to get access to Xero. MFA is a complete waste of user time. My bank doesn't use it and I trust them not to lose my money, so why does accounting software need it?
    If the ATO insists on it with their stupid STP, then link it to STP and nothing else.

    Hi Charlotte, can you expand a little on your needs or use cases for your idea here? 

    A wage would generally be connected to an employee in payroll. Managing a loan is a little different and we have suggestion of how to do this in our help here, and when it comes to drawings and introducing cash to the business this would generally relate to a specific shareholder and would be recorded as Spend or receive monies, if you'd rather not specify the contact you may want to set up a generic contact that you could code these sort of transactions too. 

  12. Dear Xero,

    Cheque Printing option should be available for versions outside of Canada & US It's a very key feature required to many organizations which should be added in xero. Hope to see this feature available to every version of Xero in the near future.

  13. UK Payroll- Access to a communal time off calendar for all employees.
    As a smaller business we try to have one employee off at a time where possible- it would be hugely useful if they could access a shared leave calendar in the same place as they request leave & submit timesheets from. This would pull data from my admin overview calendar and stop me having to create external calendar in iOS and another in android which leads to missing data etc and wasted holiday requests. They could see if the leave they want is available prior to the request.

  14. Copy a Bill to an Invoice. We have many instances where we need to charge out for the invoice that we received. You can copy Quotes and Purchase Orders to Invoices and Bills already. Not sure why this is not already a function.

    Hi everyone, appreciate the continued conversation here. Please bear in mind while a solution may not solve what you're in need of, it's generally offered from a good place, where everyone is trying to help one another. 

    As noted earlier there are a couple of existing options that some may be able to make use of like;

    • Using Billable expenses to mark items of your bills as an on charge to your  customer which can be easily added when the invoice is created for the customer later on, or 
    • Perhaps entering the invoice first, and then copying the invoice to a bill

    We totally get some users find this second option useful and it's not quite available within the new invoicing experience just yet. There is a specific idea for this that I'd encourage you to join and follow for any updates as we're continuing to develop the new experience. 

  15. I am needing to import my payroll expenses from another payroll platform in the form of a manual journal. I need those payroll expenses to be tracked by project. It would be handy to be able to have a column for projects instead of a tracking category.

  16. It would be really helpful when merging suppliers if there was an option to keep all contact and financial details with the updated contact. When an existing supplier joins Xero and starts sending Xero generated invoices that you can upload to Xero if the name is even slightly different it creates a new supplier. This could be as basic as Ltd vs Limited. When these contacts are merged all the existing information is deleted and needs to be re-entered. An option to keep all existing contact information would be great.

  17. It should be possible to search Fixed Assets by serial number using the existing search box.

    Otherwise the Fixed Assets registration feature is not that useful, because if you have i.e. 50 of the same asset you have to manually open all 50 assets to find out which one actually matches the SN of the asset you are disposing.

    If you can't search based on the serial number, what is even the point of entering it?

    Hi everyone, thanks for your feedback and detail of why searching b y serial # would be of use. We understand how this'd be beneficial when you have multiple of the same asset being registered.

    At this time, as with a few parts of Xero our product team in the Fixed Assets space are focused on updating some core Fixed Assets technology to provide future capability and a consistent look and feel to what you've begun seeing in other parts of Xero like reports, and invoicing.

    We'll keep watching the support for ideas closely and share any updates with you all.

  18. Add a feature where you can capture bulk supplier invoices.
    You can select your supplier from a dropdown, type the invoice number, type the description, select to add a file, select account detail (sales account) and type in your amount.
    This will save much more time vs opening the supplier account, add new bill, etc, etc, or copying a recent bill and just typing over it ... it's tedious and time consuming the way it is set up now.

    Hi Louleen, rounding back to your idea here. From what you describe it sounds like majority of the contents of the bills are the same? If so perhaps a repeat bill template could be an option. If you set this to create a Draft bill you could then just review and make any adjustments.

    Also if you already have existing bills that need entering you can back date a repeat bill template and dependent on the cycle you set e.g 'repeats every x days' you could spin up multiple bills from one template at once.

  19. Changing MFA devices for Xero Verify brings over your accounts but on the Xero Identity Account page, when you attempt to change the device it makes you re-set up the account / code in Xero Verify. Would love to just have a 'change linked device' with a drop down of devices that have Verify attached to the account.

  20. When I am emailed a bill from a vendor who also uses Xero, I click the link and open that bill in a browser. Usually, I am already logged in to Xero in another tab in the same browser. Usually, there will be multiple bills to open this way.

    For every single bill, I have to click to log in to Xero to save it as a draft in one of the organisations I have access to. It's a small thing, but I'd like to not have to do that if I'm already logged in to Xero in another tab,…
