group account transactions by month
I would be good to be able to carry out data analysis of each nominal code and therefore group the account transactions by month with totals rather than by week which will ultimately tie back to the P&L. This would make it useful when carrying out data analysis from the P&L.
4 votesHi Kate, not sure I understand your ask here - is this within the Profit & Loss report, or is there another report you're running that you want to link back to the Profit & Loss report that is currently grouped on a weekly basis?

Organisation Settings - Setting up a UK company with a non-GBP base currency
We have a UK based client who have a presentational and functional currency in USD. There is no possibility of setting up this company correctly on Xero, as Xero only lets UK organisations use the base currency on GBP to link easily to taxonomy.
It would be very helpful if this could be set up.
6 votesHi Jonathan, when you say presentational and functional currency is USD - does the organisation pay taxes in the US? If so it would be recommended that you pick US when setting up the org.
Alternatively, if US is one of the currencies that the org regularly deals and transacts in but pays taxes in the UK it would be recommended that you select UK and the client is on an org that includes multi-currency in it's plan.
We appreciate customers would like to see more capability with currency in Xero - most recently we have added the ability to run the newer Profit & Loss, Balance Sheet and Budget Variance reports in other currencies an org uses.

Contacts - SAP field
SAP Field- ability to add a field for SAP# that is searchable and exportable.
1 voteHi Andrea, if you'd like to have a field to enter your SAP # into you could look to save this as the Item Code for inventory you set up in your org. You can search items from products and services in Xero , and export your inventory items so you'd be able to export all item codes if this is where you save your SAP #.
If you're looking for the step further of being able to scan inventory into the system - this isn't something we're looking to develop for and you can see more on this from the idea here

Aged Payable Overhead Report
Aged Payables Overheads Report. Allow filtering by cost code.
1 voteWhen you say filtering by 'cost code' - would this be an account or tracking category you've set up n the organisation, Kaytie?
If you can also share some detail of what you'll use the report for specifically this'll help when sharing back with our product teams. It's good for them to understand how a particular type of report or setup could help a business.

Projects - Assign bills to closed Projects
As an event company, we often receive bills months after the original project is "complete". I wish I could assign costs to "complete" projects the same way that I can assign invoices to "complete" projects.
22 votesHi Leah, when you've closed/completed a project it is still possible to add Bills and new Expense tasks to it.
From the bill you'll be able to look up and assign lines of your Bill, or within the project you can simply add an expense. The only transactions you can no longer add once closed are Billable expenses, Spend monies and time entries.
Is there a specific reason you need to enter the expense as one of these type of items?

Reconciliation | Find & Match - Set a range for search
While performing a task of Bulk Income Reconciliation , I have to add Invoice one by one likewise 70123 , 70124, 70125 and so on. This is very time consuming task.
Could we have range over there so that we can directly select all and reconcile the same.5 votesHi there 👋, for the example you've provided here you could enter "701" into the search field which would search all unreconciled invoices that include this detail in the Invoice Number field.
While not a definitive range this'd enable you to focus on a group of invoices in a sequence - Would this suit for what you're after here?

A report showing a summary of transactions not yet included in a VAT return, particularily for late claims
30 votesHI team, our article here will likely help you identify transactions that have not been included in your VAT return.
You can run the Account Transactions report to compare with the Transactions by VAT box tab of your VAT return.

Quotes - View Inventory Item Cost
See Inventory Item Cost when doing a Quote. I would find it helpful, when doing a quote to a customer, to see the cost of the inventory item I am quoting on. Of course, it should not appear in the final quote going to the client, but seeing it, would give me more confidence in doing my quote and make it a lot quicker. Thanks
8 votesHi Mark, as cost price of items can change over time, if you often associate specific items you're selling to sales you make to your customers perhaps Billable expenses?
When you add the expenses to your customers invoice this will bring across the cost price of the items you've assigned.

Purchase Orders Report - Show Expected arrival date
It would be extremely useful to be able to either
1. export the main data from all purchase orders / or
2. be able to make up a custom reportIe: Supplier, date / reference / ETA / Salesperson / dollar / Revenue identity etc.
Used For: Sales team, Customer order ETA's etc3 votesHi Melissa, when you mention ETA - Is there a field in the Purchase order that you're currently using to track this?
There is a common format within the Payable Invoice detail report that might serve your needs here and can be set u and saved as custom with the columns you'd prefer, and can be exported to PDF, Excel or Google sheets.

Photo of receipt to create draft bill
Take a photo of a receipt in the Xero app and upload directly to draft bills. Xero automatically prefills readable data.
2 votesThere are already ways you can automate this process, Elise. Is there a specific reason you'd like to do this through the Xero mobile app?
I'd recommend looking into connecting Hubdoc to your Xero org, or emailing bills to your organisation.

Description and details in a new transaction
When you create a new transaction you have 2 fields which identify the nature of the transaction - "Description" and "Details".
I find myself constantly copying one to the other. It would be really useful if Xero could auto-copy description across to details, and if you don't want it the same you can overtype the details.
Having content in both fields helps identify the item, and usually the same content will do.
1 voteHi Rick, trying to better understand the flow you have here - would this be to copy the details of a statement line across to a transaction you're creating
when reconciling?

Bills - Flag a Bill as 'in dispute / query'
Ability to flag individual bills as in dispute
Purpose | To enable review and ensure the business does not make payment for a bill when it's currently 'under query'
921 votesHi community, appreciate the want for more of an update from us on this highly voted idea. Since Kelly’s last message I am pleased to let you know that our product team has done some discovery work in this space. More specifically, exploring the different ways in which the problem could be solved in Xero, alongside understanding the technical challenges. The feedback you’ve shared has been really useful for our product team’s research 🙏
We recognise the importance of needing to know which bills are flagged, so people making payment can review whether a bill should be paid or not, to avoid inadvertent payment. Being able to improve this workflow is important to us and once we have solution concepts, we will be sure to reach out to this community for feedback.
Right now there are no specific time frames available as to when this might be worked on, but…

Reporting - Net Sales
To have a report for NET Sales for a month. Currently there is a report that only shows what's payable with VAT (not all sales are vatable) so, when trying to reconcile with the in-house ordering program it becomes a whole big xcel spreadsheet exercise...... takes to much time. the report also includes Prepayments which are not goods sold, but money transactions in advance
1 voteHi Zoe, does the Receivable Invoice Details report meet your needs here?
You can add Net and Gross columns to the report, as well as filter by Status if needed to zone into a group of invoices.
Once you have it set up for your needs you can save as custom to access the report with this setup anytime.

General Ledger (detailed) - Quantity column
Hi there, would be awesome to be able to have a column in the detailed general ledger which has the quantities from what you entered in the quantity column when you reconcile the transactions. This is especially important when figured is used with Xero. As it takes a lot of time to go into each transaction and see what the stock quantities are to get the group total.
16 votesHi Maddy, may depend on how the stock is being recorded in Xero and reconciled with Figured - would the Inventory Item Details report be of use here?
You could group by Item name, include Expense, Inventory & Revenue accounts, as well as QoH movement to view the total # of units sold in the period you're running the report for.

Bills: Option to unapprove
Bills: unapprove option
Have the option to unapprove a bill so it can revert back to draft/awaiting approval rather than having to void a bill and re-enter it.
424 votesHi community, we can see there’s lots of interest in this idea and appreciate all your feedback and comments. We absolutely understand the value that unapproving a bill would bring to your businesses. Unfortunately, while the concept is quite simple, the technical implementation within Xero is highly complex.
The good news is that our Product team is still keen to solve this problem for you. They have a possible solution and would love to hear your response to validate their thinking.
Put simply, instead of "unapproving", the solution would bundle the following tasks into a single action so that you can effectively "unapprove" a bill much faster.
- Void the bill
- Copy the bill
- Reattach any files (IF any) from the voided bill to the copy of the bill
A primary caveat to this is you could only action one bill at a time. So, if you had multiple bills that…

Navigation - Add a 'Jump to top' button at bottom of page (or floating)
Would be useful to be able to have a button at the bottom of a page that you can click to jump to the top of the page instead of having to scroll up, especially when working a page that has many lines.
5 votesHi Susan, thanks for suggesting this one!
Whilst not quite the same as having a button that's built in to the page, you can quickly jump to the top, or the bottom of a page using keyboard shortcuts:
- On a mac, hit Command-up arrow. You can then return to the bottom of the page with Command-down arrow.
- On Windows, hit the Home and End keys to go to the top and bottom of a page, respectively.

WE NEED TO BE ABLE TO GET MONTHLY SALES TOTALS OF THE INDIVIDUEL PRODUCT ID CODES
IS THERE CURRENTLY ANY WAY TO DO THIS
WE HAVE THREE WAREHOUSE LOCATIONS PREFIXED WITH WAREHOUSES CODE AND 20 VARIATIONS OF PRODUCT IN SIZES AND TYPES AND WE NEED TO SEE EASILY WHAT IS SELLING MOST ETC IN EACH OF THOSE PRODUCT CODES

PETER J FCA1 voteHi Peter, perhaps the Inventory Item Summary report can be of help to you here.
You'll be able to filter to only select the items you're wanting to view and can add columns to view Opening & Closing Balance or Quantities, as well as those sold in the period the reports being run - Does this help with what you';re in need of here?

Supplier Activity Report - Description column includes description
When I run a supplier bill activity report it would be HELPFUL if the description column actually contained the description of the invoices, or at least the start of it. For example, say a supplier is for office rent then I put in the description what period or month the rent is for. Then, if I run a supplier activity report I would expect the ******** description column to show me the helpful description I entered. Instead I get INV Ref: xxxxxx which repeats the xxxxxx from the reference column next to it. Noe useful at all, and the info…
12 votesPayable Invoice Details report, grouped or filtered by your Contact should be of use to you here, Michael.
There is an option to include 'Description' as a column. Let us know if this helps provide the view you're after.

Contacts - Allow macrons for languages (such as te reo)
We use another software programme which exports all our customer details and invoices etc into Xero automatically. The other programme uses Google to create addresses. A lot of the addresses include te reo, so include macrons. When the text is imported into Xero the macrons cause non-recognition of the characters, so we end up with a mess.
Surely in this modern world, Xero, an Aotearoa, New Zealand, developed programme, can be made to recognise our indigenous (Official) language, and allow correct te reo spellings.
This is 2022 not 1922, please allow us to get this basic NZ requirement correct. Xero…11 votesHi Karin, would it be possible to get a few more examples of names that you've tried to import and not have show with macrons?
One of our team have tested creating a contact via import with the name Whakatāne (/mækrn, me-/) and this created a contact in Xero as shown in this image.
It'd be great to better understand and see if we can look into this a bit more.

Notification - Reminder to employee to enter Timesheets
An option within the employee page, once selected, to send app notification reminders that timesheets are due by specific date/time.
71 votesHey folks, thanks for the idea and support here. We appreciate all the valuable feedback and ideas shared regarding timesheet reminders ⏰
We understand that the ability to easily remind employees to fill out timesheets would make things easier and save you time.
Our product team is currently investigating potential solutions for this but at this early stage there are no specific time frames available. We’ll be sure to let you know if there’s any change, though!
