  1. Expenses and Projects - We have received some complaints about the functionality of these apps from our clients. In order for us to be able to assist our clients, it would be useful if:

    1. There was a way to see what the app looks like from a users point of view. e.g. a demo version of the app.

    2. If xero showed clearly which expenses had been reconciled to the bank to avoid double ups.

    3. If you could sort expenses by date/contact/amount under the 'ALL' tab.

  2. RE: Xero message delivery failure notification

    This is WORSE than useless - it doesn't tell you which email. We sent 24 invoices as usual to one company's three invoice clerks. We had three messages back covering two of those three clerks. It too 90 minutes with them checking every invoice in their system before we could work out which han't been sent.
    Absolutely dreadful system. Why is it impossible to tell us which emails weren't sent?

    Hey Christopher, sorry to hear the troubles you're running into here with email failure notification. If you're experiencing performance issues, or some thing isn't working as you'd expect it to, it's best looked into with a closer lens. Please raise a case with our Xero Support team on Xero Central and our specialists can investigate with you 1-1. Thanks!

  3. Xero told us Global Pay Run would be retired from 23 July and advised us to download Pay Run data but did not tell us to pay employees before that date. I approved a pay run a few days ago, intending to pay it at end of month in the Bills to Pay module, which has not been retired. But now those bills and deductions in Bills Payable are greyed out and inaccessible. Xero did not tell us about this. Please let us pay off those bills in Bills Payable otherwise they will be stuck there indefinitely.

    Thanks for reaching out and sharing your concerns regarding Global Pay Run payments, Jonathan. Understand that you're looking for guidance on how to manage the pay run bills you approved prior to Global Pay Run becoming read-only.

    For any Pay Run bills that were not marked as paid by July 23rd, you can post manual journals to adjust the balance of non-system relevant accounts. While it's not possible to post manual journals directly to system accounts like Accounts Payable, there are other ways to make these adjustments. We have a helpful article on Xero Central that outlines the steps to do this.

    Hi Judy

    Thanks for submitting this idea!

    We'll just need a bit more detail for your post to be considered here. There's already an 'Uncheck all' button and a 'Discard changes' option on this screen. Just so we can fully understand, what exactly would you want this Cancel button to do, that the existing options don't do?

    Hi Shona, appreciate you sharing your idea about the Reference column in the GST Return Transactions report.

    We understand this might be an inconvenience when the column doesn’t display as expected. This is typically influenced by your device or screen setup.

    To help other users understand the issue further, and to help us get it to the right team, it would be useful to have a bit more detail. You can edit your original post and respond directly to this update if you'd like us to re-review.

    In the meantime, there are a few workarounds you might find helpful: selecting fewer columns, zooming out in your browser (Ctrl + - or Command + -), or exporting the report to Excel or Google Sheets to adjust the layout.

    Aaah good to get this added feedback and thanks for the detail, Meloraylan.

    When it comes to integrations and how data is synced into Xero from another application we'd recommend making sure you've connected with your app provider. Generally, they will have designed and built their integration with Xero themselves and will be best placed to help with any changes that may be needed when syncing your data.

  8. Having recently started using Jobber and it is so frustrating that the invoice number in Jobber does not import correctly into Xero.
    Having the Invoice number appear in Xero as the reference and the reference number appearing as invoice number in Xero, I am having to go into each invoice and edit.
    Raising this query I was first told it was a Jobber problem but New reply from Xero has confirmed that is is the mapping designed by Xero that needs to be corrected.
    Please can you address this problem.
    Thanks

    Hi, thanks for your feedback about this.

    As Jobber is an external app, they've created their own integration into Xero, and they'd be best placed to check if/how their invoice numbers can be imported into Xero.

    We'd recommend reaching out to Jobber directly to ask about this.

    If you need further help after contacting Jobber, please raise a case with our Xero Support team on Xero Central, and our specialists can check it out with you 1-1. Thanks!

    We appreciate your feedback about uploading bills, and this has been shared with our product teams.

    However, as this does not meet one or more of the qualities of an idea votes and comments have been turned off.

    The reason for this is that the idea submitted contains more than one suggestion. Limiting an idea to one suggestion allows for better monitoring and helps your idea to gain support.

    Hi Barbara, thanks for raising this idea with us regarding dating the EPS submission earlier or later than the set times in Xero.

    For clarity, when a pay run is posted, an EPS is submitted to HMRC between the 12th and 19th of each month, in time to meet the HMRC deadline of the 19th. Even if a pay run is posted earlier, it will show as Scheduled until this period. It isn't possible to send an EPS earlier in Xero. If you need to send an EPS for a previous month and can't wait, you can use the Basic Tools from the HMRC website.

    Thanks for your feedback on this request. We understand that having the last payment amount visible in the Receivable Invoice Detail report would be a big help for many of you. For now, a workaround is to open each invoice to view its payment history. 🔎 This isn't ideal, but it will give you the information you need.While this idea is not currently on our development roadmap, we are keeping a close eye on all the suggestions here. We'll be sure to post an update if there are any changes in the future. Thanks again for sharing your feedback with us! ⭐


  14. Please, can we make sure the new dashboard will still have all the existing widgets and their current functionality, including VAT Return, Account Watchlist, Invoices owed to you, bills you need to pay, and that each bank account will have its own widget, so that it doesn't become the same debacle and waste of our processing time in doing the same functions as now.

    Thanks for your feedback on the new dashboard widgets. We're excited to see so much engagement and appreciate all the suggestions on what you'd like to see 🤩. We understand that a more flexible and customisable dashboard is key to helping you manage your business more effectively. We'll continue to keep you in the loop as we progress. Thanks again for your valuable input and for helping us shape the future of Xero!

  15. Dates - could this please not necessarily be the current date? This is the one most infuriating thing I find with Xero as it is time-consuming to keep altering it.

    For example, when entering bills, I am working through bills from the previous month. It would be useful if the date remembered the previous date entered and defaulted to it, so that one could just change the 'day' number and not the month and year.

    Alternatively, could one choose a month period and year so that all entries are going to be in that month, with just the day numbers…

    Hey Richard, thanks for the feedback on the new Home Page Prototype. I can see that this particular feedback, is about the default date that populates in an invoice or bill when you first create an invoice or bill. Although this is helpful feedback we are hoping for more specific feedback on your experience of the new prototype Home page. We will pass the date picker default date feedback along and ask that you click the Feedback link at the bottom of the Home Page and share your own experiences with the Home Page. Thanks again for the feedback.

  16. Automatic transfer (synchronisation) of timesheets from Tradify to Xero. Settings to chose which timesheet category (Tradify: billable vs non-billable) is transferred to which earnings rate on Xero. Prompt in Xero's payroll feature to check the synchronised data before submitting the pay.

    Hi Wiebke, we’ve reviewed your idea about timesheet synchronisation between Tradify and Xero Payroll features. We appreciate you taking the time to suggest this.

    Since this request involves a third-party app (Tradify), any integration would need to be initiated and maintained by the Tradify team. If you haven’t already, we’d recommend reaching out to them directly to let them know you’re interested in an improved Xero integration. It often helps when the request comes from users like you.

    As this falls outside the types of ideas we can action from our side, we’ve turned off voting and comments on this post.

  17. AroFlo → Xero Integration Ignores Quantities – Every Line Shows “1” in Xero

    We use AroFlo to create purchase orders and invoices, and send them into Xero via the standard integration. In AroFlo, each line has the correct quantity, unit price, and total.
    However, when the invoice arrives in Xero:

    Every line item quantity is set to 1

    The real quantity is moved into the item description

    This breaks inventory tracking, reporting, and makes invoices misleading for our clients

    AroFlo support has confirmed this is a “limitation of the Xero API,” but from our research, Xero’s API does support a…

    Sorry to hear the troubles you're running into here.

    If you're experiencing issues with the data that's imported into Xero from an integrated app such as Aroflo, we recommend contacting them directly, as they'll be more familiar with the dataflow from their application and what it can do.

    If Aroflo need assistance with their integration, they're welcome to reach out to us for help.

    That said, if you still need help after contacting them, please raise a case with our Xero Support team on Xero Central and our specialists can check it out. Thanks!

  18. New Bill Button Changes.

    I am freaking out about changes that Xero are going to force on us within the Bills Framework.
    The Invoices framework changes have been the stuff of nightmares.

  19. Addresses should not be a mandatory condition for submitting TPAR Reports to the ATO via Xero. This is not mandatory with the ATO, why make it mandatory in Xero?

    Many contractor and supplier invoices don't have their addresses listed on their invoices. Some don't have offices and it would be understandable that they don't want to put their home address on the invoices.

    It is also quite cumbersome for us as the preparers when we can't lodge the TPARs in Xero and have to then line by line copy and paste out to submit via ATO.

    It would be great…

    Thanks for your suggestion to make the payee address field optional on the TPAR, Kai.

    While the address isn’t required when lodging manually, Xero’s TPAR is built to meet the ATO’s software provider specifications, which do require the payee address for electronic filing. That’s why Xero treats it as mandatory and will show an error if it’s missing.

    If you prefer not to include the address, you can export the TPAR as a CSV and lodge it manually with the ATO.

    As this is a compliance requirement, we’ve closed the idea for votes and comments. However, we’ve shared your feedback with our product team in case the ATO’s requirements change in future.

  20. Bill entry - keep the ability to tab through and edit through the PDF of the supplier's bill.

    Note this is a request to keep this beautiful feature when it comes time to upgrade Bill Entry. The ability to have a PDF in mid screen while tabling and data entry literally 'through' the PDF and seeing the fields change is a huge time saver and contributes to accuracy and speed - this is something that maybe overlooked when the team starts to 'upgrade' billing as per invoicing et al.
