    We appreciate you sharing your ideas regarding timesheets.

    We've reviewed your idea and can see that the idea regarding notifications is an existing Xero Product Idea called Notification - Reminder to employee to enter Timesheet. This is currently in review with our product team.

    The ability to input weekly hours (rather than daily) has not yet been raised though. The idea is now available to the community to share their support. We'll keep you updated!

  2. When creating a new invoice, the search scope includes every contact in the database, every vendor, evert coffee shop or gas station anyone ever used a credit card at. Xero knows which contacts are Customers (there's a Customer Invoice report), it should pull from Customers only. For the use case where someone is invoicing someone for the first time, they can open that Contact and then click New Invoice.

    Appreciate you sharing your feedback with us here, Rob. Understand how this could help you find the contact you're after if your supplier and customer lists are quite separated.

    We'll get a sense of others that would also like to see this from your idea here. If there are any updates we'll let you know.

  3. I would like to be able to assign the 210 CIS labour account to a service for CIS labour. At the moment, I have a couple of services for CIS labour and some for non CIS labour.
    For the Non CIS labour, I can creat a service called 'labour' and add the account code to it.
    This can't be done with CIS labour at the moment as Xero won't allow it. This means that for each line item of CIS labour in an invoice I have to manually add the 210 CIS account.
    This is unnecessarily timecomsuming and allows for…

    Hi Leonie, trying to better understand your idea here. When you say payment and credit allocations screen - is this when reconciling your bank account? Or somewhere a bit different.

    If you can share a bit more detail of where in Xero, and how this feature would help I can ensure it's shared back with the right product team. It'll help others in the community here understand if this is something they'd like to support, too.

  5. The delivered response to my previous idea was no correct. The aged summary/detail reports only show what is outstanding.
    The report I am requesting is to show the turnover, monthly across 12 months so that we can see what we have spent with a supplier each month for that year, but also what a customer has spent with us.

    Appreciate you creating a new idea to confirm what was missing within Xero's reports that you'd like to see, Les. Being open this isn't something we have any plans for right now, but we'll continue to track the interest through your idea here and we'll share if there are any updates planned.

  6. Increase the character limit for product/item codes from 30 to at least 50.

    Our suppliers use a minimum of 8 characters, up to 12 characters. We use 4 suppliers regularly, which all use different SKU's; This means we can have 36 characters for standard products, even more if there is a supplier we don't purchase too regularly from or if there are 2+ similar products that get grouped under one item.

  7. It would be really helpful if a bill could be created from the pension filing figures on payroll once you have clicked on marked as filed. (such as it is an option when you do your vat return)

  8. Please add a VAT Reconciliation Report for South African Xero Orgs.
    There is currently no report that allows users to determine which transactions in the VAT Control Account have been posted to which VAT periods and which returns they fall under. Late claims are not indicated anywhere except in the transaction detail within each VAT201, so the Control Account needs to be reconciled externally in excel.
    This is particularly an issue when a conversion from another accounting software has taken place and there are opening balances to reconcile. Or if conversion took place mid VAT period.
    It would be useful…

  11. Customers often ask for a copy of an older invoice that's been paid. When either resending or downloading it, Xero creates a new PDF that shows the invoice as paid with a 0.00 balance.

    I should be able to send an exact copy of the original that clearly states it is a copy. In fact, HMRC states that a request for another copy of a VAT invoice SHOULD be as per the original and state that it's a duplicate.

  14. Create a task list for new users of what they need to set up or complete in order to start working. Include links to the learning material for those tasks. New small business owner and I was not sure what exactly I had to set up or edit before just jumping in so I learnt when doing the tasks that I needed to set up a default invoice as example

  15. Its really distracting and stressful having pop ups and flashing bits. I am doing a difficult job and you are meant to be a tool, not an annoyance. Its also eating up my desk space and time trying to figure out how to turn them off one at a time - IF I CAN. Some don't even turn off. This is not a shopping experience. Its a workspace. Could you treat it like one please?

  16. The lack of warnings, pop ups or anything relating to accidentally finalising STP for the wrong financial year is pretty disappointing.
    I work on a large screen and didn't see the tiny little 2025-26 drop down menu top right. I've selected the employees to finalise and proceeded with the wrong year. At no point was there a warning, note, message or anything to bring light to it being the wrong year.
    Yes I know I should have concentrated more, yes I realise now the financial year is displayed at the top of the confirmation screen, but for something that has…

  18. Would it please be possible to increase the amount of attachments that can be saved against a bill. At the moment it will allow us to attach more that 50 items but when it saves it only saves the first 50 and removes the rest.
    I realise there are ways round this eg by attaching an e-mail with multiple items attached within it, but it's then more time consuming when trying to find specific attachments

  19. Hi Xero Team, I’d like to provide some feedback regarding how timesheets integrate with payroll in Xero Payroll. Currently, each timesheet period is directly tied to the payroll calendar, which means that once a payroll is posted or finalised, the related timesheet period automatically closes. This setup prevents employees from entering or submitting any hours that fall after the posting date, even if those hours occur before the end of the pay period. In practice, this creates challenges for businesses that: Need to finalise payroll a few days in advance to allow time for approvals and payments, and Still require…
