Reporting - Automatic generation and emailing of reports
Automatically send email reports every month.
Purpose: Users can set up recurring reports to the dedicated person consistently at the same date.
Hi community, we appreciate this idea has collected a fair amount of votes and commentary. This has all been shared with, and considered by, our product team - so they have an understanding of the work that would be required for this.
We'd like to confirm that, at this stage, the automatic generation and sending of reports is not something we have plans to develop in the near term. We are still interested to get a clearer understanding of demand for this feature, and we'll continue to track this through the conversation and votes on this idea. If there's any change we will let you know!

It would also be useful for exporting data via email that can be sucked into Power Bi, Data Warehouses and the like all automatically
Same with WorkFlowMax
i.e.
Xero emails report as attachement daily at 7am
Power Automate picks up the email attachement and saves to Sharepoint. Power BI Service schedule picks this data up at 8am and refreshes reports etc. which can be streamed into Microsoft Teams -

This should a basic feature in the software i.e., to email reports to clients etc. and request that this feature be implemented immediately.

This would be a great function to allow regular reporting and ensuring the reports are run on time and go to the correct people each month.
Saves another thing being on your to do list each month. -

I agree automatic generation and emailing of reports would be of great benefit and save time and act as a trigger

Would be useful to have an option to schedule reports to be automatically generated and sent on recurring dates. Have taken this for granted on other systems, seems like a glaring omission.

Every month I have to generate a bunch of reports and email them to people. This would be a great alternative

Currently I have to manually exports from Xero everyday, I thought all products like yours have an automated export tool via email or scheduled task?

When viewing a report is it possible to have option to email, for example, a payroll summary report straight to client from software in PDF format.

It would be great to be able to set up a standard report that could repeat on a monthly or weekly basis.
I would like to be able to run a report that gives the client a weekly update of certain KPI's and sends that report to their inbox.
One particular use case might be to let cash accounting clients know how much cash they have received this quarter to date - and how much cash they should put aside in a separate VAT account.

Can we please get this feature moving? Other SAAS accounting packages offer this and it is desperately needed!
