UK Payroll - Auto enrolment postponements
When an employee has a postponed autoenrollment the pension doesn't prompt or show up until just before the payment run has been posted. Making any prior payroll reports and payslips incorrect as the pension then tags on at the end. So reports then need to be reprinted and balanced again.
Can the prompt no show up at the start of the pay run? This will then save any duplicated reports and potential incorrect payments.
Also the pension filing report viewable before the RTI posting.
Alternatively, enter the postponement date when posting the pay run in which the employee becomes eligible…

Bills - Add 'Make Payment' option available in Canada for 'Bills'.
In Canada, 'Make Payment' button is not available in 'Bills'. It would be nice to make payment directly from the Bills instead making payment from the bank.

Invoicing - Reduce steps from Reference to Item field
Re: New Invoicing - Reduce Number of steps and clicks (The original thread has had comments turned off, so I can't comment that it has made more steps, not less...)
What has happened here...it is now taking eight tab clicks to get from Reference Number to the first box to input the item code...last week it was six...so the number of click has increased, not decreased.
Also, when inputting an item code, I have multiple codes that have the same base code with different suffixes...is there are way to just get it to the shaded part that you select the…
5 votesThanks for taking your time to start a new idea with the specific flow you'd like to reduce steps in, Lynette. Just to check it sounds like you may be tabbing from the Reference field to the Item code field - Would this be correct?
Being upfront this isn't something we have further changes planned for in the near term but it'll be good to gauge the interest from community around this, here.🙂

AU Payroll - Timesheet quantities
Timesheets - aside from just having an employee enter hours worked against each, it would be good to have a customizable timesheet that other fields could be recorded against the day that are not hours driven. For example - for one day have the employee enter 5hrs of time worked but also another field for a quantity driver - eg; enter quantity of 3. We have one client with a large number of employees that are remunerated via an hourly rate plus a quantity driver. The current workaround is the employee to submit the timesheet but also send a separate…

Capture incoterms under Contacts & Invoices
It would be useful to capture Incoterms on a contact by having a dropdown selection for them. Additionally, if this information can be carried over to the invoice screen, it would be beneficial.

Organisation Settings - Show Xero subscription plan in Settings
At the moment when you go to Organisation Settings > Subscription and billing (e.g. https://go.xero.com/Settings/ManageSubscription), it says "Change plan and update credit card details Managed by XXXX"
If we are XXXX - we don't see either of those things, only a button to take us somewhere else to Manage the plan.
If we are not XXXX - we don't see either of those things.How dumb?
Just show the Xero subscription/plan so we know what it is.
2 votesHi Sam, appreciate you sharing this idea — we understand where you're coming from.
Being able to quickly see your Xero subscription plan from within your organisation’s settings would definitely make things easier. Having to jump to a different section just to check your plan or see what features are included isn’t ideal, especially when you’re trying to make quick decisions.
At the moment, this info isn’t shown in the Organisation Settings, but you can view your plan by going to My Xero from the main menu and clicking on the Subscriptions tab. That’s where you’ll find your current plan and any add-ons.
This idea is now in the Gaining Support stage. If this change would make things simpler for you, feel free to vote or leave a comment — your feedback helps us understand what matters most and where we can improve.

Projects - Allow limited-access users to add expenses
we are currently setting up our company so that all employees use projects to keep track of time entries.
however, we have given majority of our employees limited access as they don't need to see much, but it means they aren't able to add their expenses on. This isn't ideal for us as our employees do a lot of travelling and need to be able to add their own expenses on to claim their millage back, is this something that could be changed?3 votesWe're grateful for your engagement and letting us know the changes that matter to you.

Sales overview page - Option to show Invoices as GST Exclusive
Kia ora Xero Product Team,
I’d like to raise a feature request regarding how invoice totals are displayed in Xero.
Currently, the Draft, Awaiting Approval, Sent, and Awaiting Payment invoice lists always display totals on a GST (tax) inclusive basis. For businesses like ours that operate and report primarily on a GST-exclusive basis, this creates unnecessary reconciliation effort and increases the risk of error when reviewing invoices in bulk.
While we can work around this by using the Receivable Invoice Detail report set to “Tax Exclusive,” this adds extra steps and does not provide the same quick visibility as the…

Exclude Auto Save from History and Notes
Exclude new auto save updates from History and Notes. It made sense to save these when it was manual but now it just clutters the history so badly with every auto save creating a new entry.
7 votesThanks for sharing your feedback with us. Though not a direct solution of what’s being asked here we wanted to share that our product team has been focused on autosave improvements to help reduce lag, and help your invoices load and save faster.
As we continue to develop invoicing in Xero, our team will keep considering how autosave events are displayed in your invoice history. We'll share any future updates on reducing these events or providing more control over what you see, here. Thanks

Ability to retain quote number when creating invoice
We currently avoid using the quote function for our business case as we need to use the Inv/Quote number as the reference from start to finish for the job, but this means the quotes are actually draft invoices so sit in draft.
In MYOB there was the ability to retain the quote number as the invoice number when converted, It would be excellent to have this as an option so we could use the quote function.1 voteThanks for submitting your idea on Xero Product Ideas.

Navigation - new files screen
The new files screen has created unnecessary navigation issues.
When you navigate down the uploded file list to select a file to convert to a bill, the "Add to New" buttons disappear so you need ot navigate down and back up again. More unnecessary and unproductive steps to do what we could easily do before the change. Please fix these buttons as a header. It's less intuitive now as it no longer has similar layout to Office. Why is Xero so fixed on changing these unwanted cosmetic things at the expense of functionality?1 voteThanks for submitting your idea on Xero Product Ideas.

Xero Central - Add changelogs to Xero Central Support pages
Things like tax returns change fairly frequently. Not all new features are entirely self-explanatory. Xero Support's Articles are simple and aimed at giving new users basic information, but often lack the detail to be used as an ongoing resource.
I'd suggest adding changelogs to Xero Central Support pages/articles for existing products that have been updated.
For example the IR6 tax return has changed in the 2025 year to match tax law. Estates are still able to use the 33% tax rate in their first 4 years, but the return defaults to the 39% rate.
Existing users will review the Tax…

UK Payroll - Option to view leavers in History by leaving date
After the recent Xero upgrade, the ability to view leave dates disappeared from the employees' History. Instead, a column titled "Next pay day" was added, which does not seem useful because the employees have left the company.

UK payroll - Turn off automatic journal posting for payroll
As the automatic journal for payroll is not able to be viewed before posting to accounts, we should have the option to turn off automatic journals. Currently, we have to post, then go back and do another journal to split out ER NI & Pension for different departments. This system is so unflexible.

Invoice has been unmarked as sent.
New Invoicing: in the History & Notes, an invoice has been approved BUT NOT SENT, then when the invoice is edited, a history note says " Invoice has been unmarked as sent " This is definitely not true. The invoice was never sent at this point, it was never marked as sent or marked as unsent. Please fix this incorrect Note in the History.

geofence
Add Geofencing to Xero Payroll for Seamless Timesheet Automation
Description:
I’d like to suggest adding a geofencing feature within Xero Payroll to improve how employee timesheets are recorded and approved.With geofencing, employees could automatically clock in and out when they enter or leave a designated work location (set by GPS coordinates). This would remove the need for manual time entries or paper-based sign-ins, ensuring timesheets are accurate and reducing administrative workload.
Key Benefits:
Accurate time tracking: Automatic capture of start and end times when employees arrive or leave job sites.
Reduced manual errors: Eliminates forgotten or incorrect timesheet entries.

Transaction Tagging System
Transaction Tagging System.
Instead of the simplistic Tracking Categories which only allows a two categories to be applied to a transaction, Xero should have a tagging system, where custom tags can be applied to any transaction in any quantity.
This system could replace Tracking Categories by using a format like "Location:HQ", "Location:Branch", and have custom tags like "SDE" (Shareholder Discretionary Earnings), "PST:Reimburse" (for taxes that can be refunded from the government at the end of the year), "Review Needed", "Approval Needed", "Accountant Review", etc.
Bonus points ff the tags can be applied to any object in Xero - Invoices, Transactions,…
