Xero Me - Timesheet automatically calculate overtime
It's great that Xero Me now allow employees to add their own start, finish and break times but all hours appear as ordinary hours. Xero should have a warning prompt flagging this as it's easy to miss overtime hours and pay them as the default ordinary hours, which then needs an unscheduled pay run to correct the underpayments (assuming you work this out for yourself!). Public holidays should also be flagged so we can adjust pay rates (if needed) for these days.

Invoice template - Ability to add Invoice Balance Forward
When printing an invoice I would like to go to the customer's account and bring forward the balance that is on their account.
And have this balance on a line above the net amount for this invoice, which would then add the gross amount to the brought forward value and have aline below the gross amount of the invoice, showing the total amount that they owe to date including this invoice.28 votes -
AU Payroll | Timesheet - Update time in lieu balance
The current option available for updating the time in lieu of XERO is to previously inform the fixed number of hours that will be added to the leave balance in the leave register. However, the number of hours varies each week, so I cannot predict in advance how many hours each employee will work.
My suggestion includes an automatic update from the time in lieu of using a timesheet. Thus reducing the probability of errors by entering the balance manually.

Reporting - Add Graphs and Pie Charts in Management Accounts for KPI
Add Graphs and Pie Charts of KPI's to the Management Accounts report as some client prefer picture diagrams.

Though not direct within the Management report - Xero Analytics provides visual tools to assess and get insight into your business with Short term cash flows and Business Snapshot.
Alongside this, our reporting team have also started release of a graph in the 'Expenses by Contact report' - It's available if you're running a US organisation atm, and will be with other regions soon

Invoice reminder - Show the list of those contacts that have reminders turned off
Currently there is no easy way to review the on/off status of invoice reminders for Customer unless they have an outstanding balance, and even then this is only on screen and not exportable, so either a way to filter the Customer list for those which have invoice reminders turned off, or just a report that can be run with a column for the reminders status (on/off and number of reminder sent) would be useful for better credit control review.
28 votesHey team, thanks for sharing how we can improve Invoice reminders and make these more powerful for use in your business.
Our product team has kicked off some research around Invoice reminders. It'd be great to get your input - We've got a quick form here where you can sign up to be part of the process.
As we do our research, the team might reach out with surveys or even chat with some of you directly. We'd be super grateful for your involvement in shaping the future of Invoice Reminders at Xero!

AU Payroll - Multiple payroll bank accounts
We need to pay two different groups of employees from two different bank accounts. Having to change the payroll settings each time I do a pay run (to change the bank account) leaves far too much room for error. Can there be an option to select which bank account you want to use for each pay group PLEASE!!?

AU Payroll - Recording TOIL hours worked as part of timesheet entry in My Payroll
It would be beneficial for an employee to record all hours worked in the timesheet including hours to be allocated as TOIL Accrual
i.e. employee works 35 hours, 30 hours ordinary and 5 hours to TOIL accrual?
Then when the employees wishes to take the TOIL, they submit a Leave Request as per existing functionality.Currently the employee needs to separately notify payroll regarding hours worked to be allocated to TOIL Accrual. And this doesn't go through the Supervisor Timesheet Approval process.

User Permission - Separate approver roles for both Invoices and Bills
When raising client invoices, it would be good to be able to submit the invoice to a Manager for approval.
When processing supplier bills, it would be good to be able to submit the bill to a Manager for approval of payment of that expense.
In both cases, this would mean that approval details of "who" and "when" would be noted in the History of the invoice/bill without needing to attach a file showing the approval or tracking this outside of the system.
Ideally keeping the Approval role completely separate to the ability to edit the invoice/bill as well as…28 votes -
Reporting - Add a Budget column to the Cash Summary
The profit and loss report has an option to put in the budgeted figures when you edit the layout. Can this option also be introduced to the Cash summary report please. Some of my fruit farmers love to see that figures as well compared to the actual figures.

Reporting - Ability to view balances while in edit layout function
Can you please add balances to the edit layout function so we can see what we are mapping or where things have automapped? I often need to open the financials in a separate tab while editing the layout because I can't see the balances and it would be nice if I didn't have to do that.

Expenses | Notifications - Option to choose the type of notification e.g email or in app
Ability to turn off email notifications for submitted expenses to Xero admins. Only started receiving email relating to submitted expenses as of 10th July 2025 but have been told by Xero support that it is an integral part of expense management and can’t be switched off. Have used Xero and expenses since 2019 and have never received an email relating to an expense submission. Am more than happy to continue receiving notifications of submissions via Xero Me mobile app but do not want or require email notifications.
27 votesHi everyone, we appreciate your feedback, and have been monitoring this change closely.
We appreciate the differing needs of our customers our product team have temporarily removed the notification changes mentioned in my previous update - This means this'll reduce the amount of email notification you're receiving from expenses.
We're looking into enabling more controls for expense notifications and I'll come back to share any further news around this with you here.

Short-term cash flow, mix invoices with projections
When viewing the 90-day short-term cash flow projection, payments from our on-site shop show 90 days of predicted income. However, for customers with existing invoices in the system, only those invoices are displayed.
The issue arises when customers have only 30 or 60 days of invoices, causing a drop-off in the cash projection after 60 days.
Proposed Solution:
- Combine existing invoices in Xero with predictions for future invoices.
- Automatically remove these predictions when an actual invoice is entered into the system.

AU Payroll - Fast click Superannuation directly from payrun
Could you please consider adding the feature of adding and processing auto superannuation payments from each finalised payrun (eg button next to "File" that would prefil the contributions in the payrun and further to authorisation). A number of clients are asking for a payday super feature, and adding this feature directly from the payrun will minimise the number of "clicks" and processing time. This also would be a hot topic if moving to compulsory payday super.

Organisation settings - Change base currency
It is remarkably convoluted to change the base currency even when no transactions have been posted. It only seems to be possible by cancelling the subscription and starting again. I rely on clients purchasing the software and it is not unknown for them to enter an incorrect base currency. I have used other systems where changing the base currency is very quick and easy. I suggest you make this a little easier.

New invoicing - View in files library when uploading and option to return to library
In New Invoicing, I need the ability to view the files in the file library prior to attaching them to an invoice, as I can do in Classic Invoicing. This is because when received into the file library, the files aren't always in the same order as they were scanned. I tried attaching a file using New Invoicing and it wasn't the right file and, because I couldn't return the file to the file library, I had to rescan the document back into the file library. Without the ability to view files prior to attaching them to the invoice, users…

Profit and Loss - Option to show opening and closing stock
Ability to show opening stock & closing stock closing amounts in the P&L on a monthly, quarterly etc basis.
A function to allow to pick a Balance Sheet code or P&L code for stock and specify what balance to report in the P&L or trading account. ie. when running May 2023 monthly reports, the ability to specify that the opening stock is the stock on hand balance at 30 April 2023 and the closing stock is the stock on hand balance at 31 May 2023.

Reports - When running the GL detail report on a Cash Basis, show the description of invoices & bills
As payments are applied to invoices or bills, you can't see the description detail on a cash basis report (no problem with an accrual detailed general ledger though).
The old general ledger (export function) enabled you to see the description on both accrual & cash.
Seems illogical?!

Reporting - Option to "exclude" rather than deselect in filters
The filter right now only allows to select all or select/deselect some, but sometimes it would be easier to be able to just exclude something (an account, a group of accounts, a contact, an invoice etc).
27 votesHi Barbara, when considering your idea here - is there a specific report you'd find the option to exclude rather than deselecting most useful?
