  1. 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

    Interesting to know you're attaching so many files to bills, Jenni. Out of curiosity can you share why you need to attach so many files to each bill? And, is there a # that would suit how many you'd often attach?

  2. Would it be possible to add an option to show items on the Projects screen as "not rechargeable" as well as "invoiced"?

    Thanks for sharing how we could improve projects for you, Jenni. Not exactly what you're asking here but thought it was worth sharing that we have an idea over here for being able to set a default for items to be non-chargeable if you feel this would accommodate what you're also after I can merge to get a better overall view.

    For the meantime, we'll start tracking community interest in this from your idea here.

  3. When reviewing reports (e.g., Profit & Loss, Balance Sheet), we often need to view monthly data from the start of the fiscal year up to the current month. Right now, we have to manually select the first and last day of each month every time, which is time-consuming and repetitive. This makes simple tasks like flicking through months to verify data more cumbersome than necessary.

    1. Add “Previous Month” / “Next Month” buttons These buttons would auto-update the report’s date range to the previous or next full month.

    Example: From May 1 – May 31, clicking "Next" moves the report to…

    Thanks for submitting your idea on Xero Product Idea's, Jessica. We appreciate you taking your time to share changes that would be most meaningful to you.

    We don't have any plans for adding more common date options in reports atm, but we'll begin to get a feel of the interest in this from your idea.

  4. Would love to see the Accounting menu split so that there are new menus for Reporting & Bank Accounts. Show under the Accounting menu all the actions (journals, fixed assets, chart of accounts, advanced accounting, plus favourites). Then a separate menu for Reporting - listing the different reporting sections Adviser, Custom, Drafts, Archived etc. plus favourites). And a separate menu for Bank Accounts (reconciliation report, bank accounts, bank rules, etc).

  5. It will be great to have meaningful payroll reports. E.g., the leave overview is a blunt tool, as it shows all employees, including those who have left. The same applies to the Auto Enrolment Summary Report - it is a basic on-screen report with no filters, etc. And, yes, includes historical employees. Where there are filters, these overlook some choices which should be present. E.g., wage type, which payroll runs are they- monthly, quarterly, weekly, etc

  6. Convert Overpayment to Credit Note, or treat Overpayment the same as Credit note.

    We have a lot of customers who double pay their invoices and several who would like to see what credit they have on their account as they will order again - so don't bother with a refund.

    Creating overpayments seems like the most logical thing to do, but the functionality of overpayments is lacking in every way. There is no way to send a pdf version of an overpayment to a customer except for printing a statement. I've upvoted the suggestion to add printing functionality, but that…

    Thanks for sharing the bank you'd like us to build a feed with, angel. We appreciate you taking your time to share changes that would be most meaningful to you.

    This isn't something we're developing just atm, but it'll be good to get s sense of the interest from your idea here.

  8. I'd like to enable one-click payments from customers when I send them an invoice, but only ACH, not credit card. As it is, if I enable ACH payments via Stripe, the system displays credit card options to the customer. When I try a custom branding theme without the credit card display, Xero will not allow any Stripe payment mechanism.

    Thanks for letting us know what you're tried, Roland.

    We appreciate you taking your time to share changes that would be most meaningful to you.

    If we make any plans for changes around the ways in which you can offer ACH for your customers I'll update you here.

  9. Is there a way that we could see the names of opened Tabs so that we could see the name of what we are working on such as Balance Sheet instead of seeing Xero | Balance Sheet. When we open HST/HST returns, it shows GST/HST Returns which is great.
    We know we are with in Xero. If Xero has to show up, it could be added to the end of the Tab heading. This way, opened Tabs would be a breeze to drag in alphabetical order. This would also facilitate working with Workona resources to put Tabs in alphabetical order.

  10. It would be nice if the Xero app was fully functional like the website. I have clients that only use tablets and rarely use the website. Making the app identical to the website in feature would make it easier for them to do things

  12. Reinstate the 'Compare With' drop down.

    The key benefit of the old General Ledger Summary report was it's ability to show the net movement for multiple periods.

    Xero is now without a single report to perform this core function.

    Hi Phil, thank you for this important feedback on the General Ledger Summary report.

    We understand your point about the previous version's functionality. Losing the ability to easily show the net movement for multiple periods in a single report is a significant change, and we recognise how valuable this core function was for analysis.

    We're grateful for your engagement and for letting us know the changes that matter to you.

    We've reviewed your idea to reinstate the "Compare With" feature to show net movement per period, and now it can gain support from other community members. Along with votes, others can now comment to share how they used this comparative reporting feature for their financial analysis.🙂

  13. In the iOS app: Create an Invoice. When you are selecting the customer to invoice: Who is it for?

    Once you tap this field, a search window appears and you start typing customer name to find.

    Below the search field it would be nice to have a list of the top 5-10 customers you have create invoices for.

    Hi Todd, thanks for your idea about creating a 'Frequently Invoiced Customer List' for the Xero Accounting app. We really appreciate you taking the time to let us know the changes that matter to you.

    We've reviewed your idea, and it's now open to gain support from other community members.

    Along with votes, others can now comment to share additional detail about how having a list of top customers directly in the invoicing screen could improve their experience with Xero. 🙂

  14. The pop up boxes, creating a new item for example, should be able to be moved so that the underlying page can be seen. This is standard on most of the software that I use so it should be so on Xero.

    Thanks for your feedback, Alan. I want to be upfront that this wouldn't likely be implemented across all areas of Xero at once. Is there a specific feature (such as invoices) that you use most and would find this most beneficial to you? Thanks

  15. In Xero Payroll, it would greatly improve efficiency if the "Save & Next" button appeared at the top of the employee pay details screen, not just at the bottom.

    For businesses with detailed pay setups (multiple earnings lines, deductions, reimbursements, etc.), scrolling to the bottom of every employee’s pay screen just to click "Save & Next" is time consuming and disruptive to workflow.

    Adding this button to the top would:

    • Streamline navigation during pay runs

    • Reduce unnecessary scrolling

    • Improve accessibility for users reviewing multiple employee pays in one session

    This small UI change would make a big difference for payroll…

  16. Ability to cc and bcc when sending emails from xero.

    This would be very useful as we have many clients that like to have various other people copied in.

  17. I see that in Aus the starter plans in Xero are going up by 7-12% again this year (July 2025).

    Part of the sales pitch appears to be access to analytics. Subscribers on this level are mum and dad businesses, maybe an employee or two (as restricted by Xero).

    They need a simple system they can use, they don't need or want sophisticated analytics systems. There's nothing in their accounts to analyse. They barely have time or inclination to do a bank rec.

    I find it odd that xero restrict basic functions and compliance features like invoicing, bills, payroll and…

    Hi Craig, we really appreciate you taking the time to share such an honest and detailed perspective on our pricing plans. We hear your frustration and understand your concerns about ensuring our plans provide the right value and features for small businesses, especially in light of the upcoming price changes.

    Your feedback is an important part of how we learn and grow. We've reviewed your suggestion to make Analytics an optional feature on the Ignite and Grow plans, and it's now open for the wider community to see and support.

    Along with votes, others can now comment to share how this kind of flexibility in our plans would impact their business. Hearing these different perspectives helps us get a much clearer picture of what our customers truly need from Xero.

  18. I create a purchase order through the Xero App
    I go to Categorise to an account - on my iPhone it has a search accounts feature, on my colleagues Samsung phone there is no search feature - he has to scroll through all the accounts listed to find the correct accounting code
    Will this feature be added to Samsung phones?

    We also found this was the same when selecting Projects or Plant (tracking categories), on my iPhone I had a search feature, on his Samsung he did not and again would have to scroll through the extensive list we have…

  19. When writing a cheque, I am limited to a 6-digit unique cheque number. With QUickBooks I used the date as the checknumber. For example May 31 2025 would be 20250531, then I append a letter to it as 20250531a. With making payment on web sites and then entering checks into Xero this still allows things to sort properly. Being limited to 6 numbers makes it harder to keep track of things.

    Hi Stanley, thanks for sharing your idea and explaining your specific workflow for tracking payments. It's really helpful to understand how you use cheque numbers to keep things organised.

    We've reviewed your suggestion to increase the character limit for cheque numbers, and it’s now ready to gain support from other community members.

  20. Set Overpayment Allocation Date:
    Currently we are not allowed to change the date when an overpayment is applied to an invoice. It is allocated to the issue date of the invoice.
    The inability to change the date when allocating the overpayment to an invoice is causing problems where payments are now being applied to a closed sales tax period, which in turn causes the need for sales tax amendments and additional report filing.
