  1. On the Gross to Net report, payments before August 2024 have a "posted date" set to the date the report was generated, which is incorrect. See attached example.
    To reduce confusion, either:
    - The Posted Date feature should be backdated so that payments before August 2024 show the correct "posted date"
    - Payments before August 2024 should not state a "posted date" at all.

  2. We have assigned users to different projects in Xero Projects. However we are not able to filter reports based on Assigned Users. There is currently no filter or a separate column we could use to filter a report to show all projects assigned to a particular user and not the whole company. This would be useful for Project Summary reports in particular.

  3. I would like the ability to set up an email forwarding rule so that any incoming invoices can be automatically forwarded to Xero and created as draft bills.
    At the moment, there’s no verified mailbox or built-in process that allows this automation, meaning invoices have to be manually uploaded or sent from specific addresses.
    Adding this feature would make invoice management faster, simpler, and far more cost-effective, as users wouldn’t need to subscribe to third-party apps or integrations just to achieve automatic forwarding.

  4. Bulk Actions for Expenses: Restore Submit/Approve Many. With the retirement of Classic Expenses, a major efficiency feature has been lost: the ability to process expense claims in bulk.
    The Problem: Currently, each individual expense claim must be opened, reviewed, and actioned one-by-one. For anyone who needs to approve 20 claims at the end of the week, this is an incredibly tedious and time-consuming process. What was once a 30-second task now takes many times longer.
    The Solution: Reintroduce checkboxes and a bulk action menu to the expense claims overview screen. This would allow users to:
    Select multiple claims.
    Perform bulk…

  6. Re-introduce Vendor Auto-fill in New Expenses to Save Time & Prevent Data Duplication. The new Expenses experience is missing the vendor auto-fill/suggestion feature that existed in Classic Expenses. This is a critical time-saving tool that also prevents the creation of duplicate vendor records due to minor spelling variations or typos. Re-adding this feature would greatly improve efficiency and data hygiene.

  7. Title: Make Supplier Name Clickable in Draft Bills

    Description:

    When entering a draft bill in Xero, the supplier field is auto-suggested — often using AI — but it remains a plain text box. This prevents users from clicking through to the supplier’s contact record to view past bills, which is a critical step in avoiding duplicates and checking billing patterns.

    Once a bill is approved, the supplier name becomes a clickable link. But during the draft stage — when users are actively entering and verifying data — this functionality is missing.

    Suggested Improvement: Make the supplier name clickable in draft…

  8. If an employee has had their expenses approved for payment, could you automatically create a line item in their next pay run for the reimbursement of that expense?

  9. It would be help helpful to be able to edit reconciled transactions within the Xero phone application.

    I often want to fix something on the go and have to wait until I can get to a computer.

  10. Invoice - Ability to add a second reference field.
    Add a second Reference field for customer's purchase order number

    Purpose: When sending invoices to customer most of them use accounting systems that automatically searches for their purchase number. It would be easier to have a dedicated field for the customer's purchaser order number (your reference) separate from our own reference number (Sales Order Number)

  11. Create a "widget" with a customizable icon shortcuts to have it where you can click on one button and get you to where you need to go instead of navigation through menus. Have a way to only show which icons appear. For me, it would be "invoices, expenses, refunds, chart of accounts, and inventory". See the attached mock up of what I'm talking about. It would be so nice to have shortcuts right there on the homepage.

    Appreciate your feedback and great visual understanding with your mockup there, Chris. Totally get it's not exactly what you're suggesting here but just as a highlight around shortcuts there are a few that can be used anywhere in Xero to help you quickly navigate to some features such as '/a' to get to the all bank accounts screen, or '/e' to go to all employees 😊

    We'll get a sense of interest building for homepage icons through your idea here.

  12. I have been told I can use Xero to submit quarterly returns and the final submission but I won’t be able to submit my SA return as Xero only allows Xero partners to submit SA returns using Xero. The software therefore does not fulfil my needs as I want to file my own SA return. Will Xero allow me to file my SA return ?

  13. Report which lists (chart of) accounts by their creation date. Handy to update an exported excel report based from a Xero report. It would show where updates in the existing excel report are required before updating latest figures

  14. Can we please have an option to run a report for contacts incl Suppliers for example, where we can then audit new suppliers for a time period. Links into other ideas posted here to also see last active/used date. Similiar to the account transaction reports but to be able to run one for Contacts/suppliers would be super helpful for audits. Currently xero does not support any such thing, only the history & notes which is basically useless as it does not have the capacity to show or export more than 1000 entries, so when we do more than that in…

  15. When will the ability to add a shortcut to the settings like "tracking category" and "Fixed Assets" to the "accounting" dropdown menu be re-activated like you could do with the old task bar, or is this another case of "we don't care about our customers bookkeeper's productivity being lost" as all the other dropdown menus appear to have all the shortcuts?

  16. To have the option to view full invoice amounts instead of changing on the summary screens after credit notes or any payment has been deducted, as makes it very difficult to check statements when it doesn't reflect the full amount.

  17. To include payments made when looking at the activity on a supplier account without having to click into invoices, so when a supplier is querying a payment made it can be found on the first screen in the supplier account without digging too much.

    And then you can click into it, and it lists all invoices allocated to that payment and the option to resend remittance etc.

  18. Link the holiday group, working pattern and leave entitlement so it automatically deducts the relevant number of hours taken off for a bank holiday. Our contracts stipulate 28 days including bank holidays pro rated. The holiday group deducts the bank holidays on the pay slips but doesn't reduce the annual entitlement so the leave allowance is always higher than it should be. If you don't use the holiday group so you can circumvent the allowance being incorrect you then have to manually add the bank holidays for each user to ensure the pay and holiday allowance is correct which is…

  20. The reporting features for Aged Payables and Aged Receivables currently default to the base currency. While the exchange rates are displayed at the bottom of the reports, converting these figures into foreign currencies requires a lot of manual work in Excel to rebuild the reports.

    It would be extremely helpful to have a one-click option to view these reports directly in foreign currencies. This would save considerable time, particularly for businesses like ours where most clients and suppliers transact in foreign currencies.

    It would also be great if this functionality could extend to the Contacts screen, where the “Amounts owed…
