  1. Xero Central - please add the year that a case is lodged and each response. At the moment it just has day and month but no year. I have found one of mine from Nov 2022 that the last response is that I would be updated when it is resolved but the case is closed and the only reason I knew it was Nov 2022 is that the attachment I uploaded had the date of the screenshot.

  3. Suggest the ability to apply work patterns to part time employees. For example, we have a part time employee who works 7 hours on Mon, 6 hours on Tues and 6 hours on Wed.
    At the moment, if a Public Holiday falls on a Monday, it does not correctly work out hours worked.
    The same happens if Annual Leave is taken; incorrect hours are calculated which affects AL accruals.
    Hours worked have to be calculated and added manually.

  4. Be able to copy reports created in the "Demo" company to a live company instead of having to start from scratch again. The concept of the Demo company is great - to experiment and learn. Just need to easily be able to implement those learnings into a live situation.

  5. Any user with the 'Standard User Role' AKA the role with the least amount of permissions that can still access and perform bank reconciliation, has access to Setting>Check Styles which contains your bank account routing & account number, if you need to have that information printed onto blank check stock. This is a major security overlook. I do not want my employee that is helping with bank reconciliation to have access to my bank account information.

  7. We need more flexibility in depreciation schedules to add Second Hand Capital Works Assets for rental properties.
    When you buy a second hand rental property, the capital allowances available under Div 43 needs to be calculated on the original cost, however, the total amount remaining to be claimed will be less than this original amount. Fixed Assets in Xero does not currently allow for this. We need to calculate the depreciation on a straight line basis based on the original cost, not what we paid for it and we need to be able to include an opening written down value,…

  8. Currently the Sales tab in the Xero app offers no purpose at all for users of Xero VAT Cashbook subscription because they are unable to create invoices.

    I propose that Xero make sales transactions visible in "Sales" tab of Xero App for VAT Cashbook users, enabling them to use this to view income (identical to the Purchases tab) which would enable them to take and upload photos of invoices to attach to income transactions.

  10. For volume based businesses, we lose money (30c per transaction) on the stripe fee we pay vs what we can pass onto the customer (because there's no option currently to just pass on the full fee, just a %). That % can't legally be higher than what we are charged, and we can't add the 30c fee to the % anywhere in settings. When we're processing 1,000 transactions per month, we lose $300 to fees. For a small business, this isn't justifiable. Most small businesses that have high volumes are low cost, so they rely on volume of sales to…

  11. At the moment, starting a timer on the phone app will "stay local" to the app (i.e. opening XPM on the web does not show the timer running).
    It would be good if the system was aware of the fact that I am timing a task before it's completed, so if I start it on the laptop (e.g. because I am in a call and I can't easily do it on the phone) I can stop it on the phone and viceversa.

    Also, as things stand, an app crash might make me lose the timer.

  13. Our company are making use of the "personal money" and "company money" options to submit their expense claims. There is a report to track cost paid with personal money but no report to track cost paid with the company money. This report will be critical for commission calculations.

    Hi Hiten, company money transactions are recorded in the organisation as Spend money. You could run the Account Transactions report for your bank accounts, and add a filter for, or group the report by source to only see spend money transactions.

    In terms of commissions, we don't have a specific feature for tracking this however you could use Tracking in Xero to set up a Tracking category and each of the employees as a tracking option on that category. This way when they are entering company money transactions you could track it back to the employee by filtering by that tracking option.

  14. an employee has moved to NZ, we are still paying him wages but currently Xero doesnt allow for STP lodgement thorugh the payroll functionality, would be good to have this added, No PAYG & No super is aplicable because of the treaty between AU and NZ - also would be good to have the capability to add in his NZ address to his employee details

  15. I note there are repeating (aka recurring) invoices and bills.
    I would like repeating quotes as well because every year, we issue a quote to some of our clients for maintenance agreements or hosting agreements. It is basically the same quote every year except that the amounts are adjusted for CPI

  16. I have to create a biill with about 60 line items which contain a mix of duplicate and variable information. As there's no way to duplicate line items in bills, I employed a workaround by exporting Xero's inbuilt bills template file 'BillTemplate.csv'. In Excel I was then able to quickly and easily create 60 copies of the same line item, make the changes necessary and import the csv file into Xero which successfully created the bill containing the 60 line items - thus saving me hours of wasted time.

    The only issue is that no provision has been made in…

  18. Every company in the US needs to report sales by state. I've been told by support that you require us to use the tracking feature to do this, which I find quite cumbersome, as there is no need to create a tracking category when every contact has a state.
    Simply adding the state field to the Income and Expenses by Contact would resolve this.
    Please do.

  19. I work for a company where our employees can work on multiple contracts with different pay rates and different working hours for example 2 hours tues and wed at £11.50ph and thurs at £11.75.

    It would be useful if you could allocate an hourly rate to a specific working pattern and then be able to allocate multiple patterns to one employee

  20. Currently, when a quotation is sent via Xero, only the recipient's email address is visible. However, for invoices, everyone in the loop can see other recipients' email addresses.

    To ensure transparency and facilitate communication, it would be beneficial if the email addresses of all recipients could be visible when sending quotations as well.

    Could you please review this matter with your team and explore the possibility of making email addresses visible to all recipients when sending quotations through Xero? This adjustment would greatly improve our communication process and enhance the overall user experience.
