Enter your idea

So keen for this.

This is a much needed and, candidly, pretty basic feature for any accounting system. We assumed, bad on us, and are now trying to grapple with the amount of tasks and reminders required to manually generate and publish the reports across clients. PLEASE consider this to be an important and urgent "enhancement". Thanks!

Sorry to let all Xero users know, but we aren't going to get this sort of flexible data interchange outside the xero platform.

Why? Because in this new age of enshottification, you will either need to sign up with more users to be able to access the reports in Xero, or you will need to pay a monthly charge for a third party app to be able to email reports.

Software companies don't do upgrades now unless you pay them (forever) for thos upgrades.

I have been watching this request for close on 2 years. Zero progess speaks volumes about so called beautiful accounting services.

Having the ability to auto generate and email reports daily to key staff would be extremely valuable for maintaining up to date bank recs for just one thing. Our business team need to be immediately aware of payments received from customers so that they can despatch orders in a timely manner.

Would love the ability to auto send a report monthly of leave balances to our CEO

Being able to email the daily Debit / Credit report to staff for bank reconciliation would save a lot of time and help reduce business costs.

That would be super helpful if Xero can automate sending reports such as Profit and Loss. Being able to schedule weekly emails to stakeholders that a part of decision-making process.

Such a basic feature, prices keep going up, yet basic features don't exist.

Schedule reports to be run and sent to another user (via email) on a specific date.

Hi Xero Admin

Looking at this issue has there been any movement from 18 Dec 2023 based on community feedback?
Thank you

I still can't find a paid app integration that allows me to do this using Xero accounts and tracking categories. Please consider it as an essential business requirement. Thanks

This would be a great and helpful feature

This is CRITICAL! DEFINITELY NEED THIS ASAP...
How/why is it not there already!??

This would be a brilliant feature to enable us to send reports to key individuals in the organisation without having to give access to the reports module.

This is something that is needed. Various regulatory requirements would be easily helped if this was in play.

What we need is

1) The ability to generate a report on a schedule.
2) Specify a format and the parameters.
3) Specify an email address / Xero user that it goes to. Note - if this could be a different user or a user external to Xero, that would be cool. quite frankly I would pay for a "reports" user.

Basically, allow a "Set this report to be emailed" option.

I need to send weekly reports to 40 individual budget holders (we're a school, so each subject has a separate budget) to enable them to see how their actual expenditure is tracking against budget. It's not feasible to do this manually, so I am using an add-on, which isn't entirely satisfactory.

It's frustrating when work is done on Xero to 'improve' on existing functionality when there are still basic features - like scheduled reporting - missing.

Would like the ability to schedule the automation of reports and be emailed to staff. For example, schedule each Monday morning to have a WIP Aged Ledger report processed and emailed to staff.

Of course, this is still of interest! It is a basic feature and frankly it is remarkable that Xero does not offer it.

For our US operation we use Zoho Books for Invoice generation and sync back in Xero (the standard accounting system for our group).

For my weekly US sales meeting, we use Automatic generation of reports from Zoho Books to enable sales meeting attendees with weekly results for review.

For my weekly marketing meeting, I have to manually login and generate a marketing spend report from Xero to be circulated. Same for the monthly group finance review (but for 3 companies).

The lack of automated reports in Xero costs me atleast a day a year. I wonder what its costing the entire Xero customer base?

Attached is the screen shot of the interface from Zoho Books.

Frustrated!

Automated reporting is very much needed, I was so surprised when I found out Xero didn't have it!
