Without the ability to schedule amortization within a bill or invoice, proper accounting of just about any SaaS revenue or spending MUST be done via a manual journal. Without any ability to tag these journals with a contact name, there is no way to do any sort of decent revenue/expense reporting by contact within Xero, nor via any third party tools which rely on imported data, resulting in countless hours of manual work-arounds each month.

This feature would but down on manual work so much because I could filter by contact name on manual entries. I spent so much time trying to match up accrual journals with the real income from clients. it's sort of riculous and needless

Please add this feature. It helps a ton when you have multiple companies and there are lots of inter-co loans. I have to do double the entries to get to the same outcome. Please help! Conisdering going back to QBO.

Another vote for this. I've just moved over to Xero an am amazed such a basic feature, a feature available on all other accounting systems I've used, isn't available.

I am currently deciding which software to use and may not Xero if I cannot aside names to Journal entries

Voted Critical, but given that's been on the list since early 2022, perhaps Xero thinks otherwise.

come on, this has been requested for far too long, such a basic thing should not be in pending items!

Assigning the contact to journals to allow for expenses to be billed on to clients.

This feature feels like it should be a basic requirement. I need to track movements from the balance sheet to p&l and would like to use a specific contact to quickly reconcile the movements.
It is for deferred income which has already come up in this thread but there would be many useful ways to use this feature. -

Upvoted as critical. Your primary competition has this feature. I'm new to the Xero platform after leaving your competitor. I kept thinking I was doing something wrong when trying to make a journal entry. The ability to assign a contact so that you can track all transactions with that contact is (in my mind) a basic feature. I'm struggling to figure out how to assign tenant security deposits to the individual tenants they belong to and have them show up in that tenants account. I'm sure there's a workaround....but this is just odd.

Please prioritize this product feature. I feel that less urgent product designs and features that have been deployed recently are not as critical. This would save a substantial amount of time on my reconciliations and accounting practices

Come on Xero - lets go - time to roll this feature out - the value of having the this level of detail is immense in terms of reconciling prepaids, deferred revenue, and a whole host of other transactional data. GO GO GO.
