Reporting - Option to add account numbers & zero balances to financial statements
Ability to have to have a check box for "Include Account Numbers" and "Include or Omit Zero balances".
Purpose: Because it demonstrates completeness to show that the balance actually is zero

XERO look at the number of users who have supported this for so long. It is long overdue to be implemented.
With so many supporters you must feel obliged to support your users requests.

Chris Curlett commented
YES YES PLEASE.
XERO this can not be too hard to implement.
It is needed to download and use such things as the Trail Balance in excel.
PLEASE MAKE THE UPDATE!

'Xero Team shared this idea'... over a decade ago!

Rosie - you are so right this is a basic missing feature that is so important.
XERO this is well supported and needs to be fixed as per users requests. Come on and stop stalling..

Rosie Wren commented
this used to be a feature as I still use custom reports from a few years ago that include tracking with zero omissions, it makes it incredibly difficult to build a reliable excel sheet for reporting if the zero balance tracking categories are simply rejected.........I find it extremely frustrating that I can't set up management accounts for my new clients because this feature has been removed!

Chris Curlett commented
I so agree. This very overdue and has a lot of support so XERO will ignore ot - as is their previous practice.

We need this implimented as we need all of the accounts in a report to assist with setting budgets for next financial year! can this one be considered urgent!!

This is such a basic feature sorely it can be added very simply. XERO please stop producing changes that are not supported by users (New Invoicing) and fix what is needed.

I was about to move a client to Xero but have now paused on discovering this feature isn't available. Critical in creating regular reports in Excel using data exported from accounting software. The client is currently on Quickbooks (which has this feature) and I can't move them until this feature is added.

Very essential for accountants to demonstrate the completeness and query if the submitted reports are correctly coded compared to the other years. We request you more than 1000 times if needed, please include this essential feature in all the reports as an option to include or omit Account numbers with Zero balance. Note: Most of the other accounting softwares has this beautiful features and it will save lots of time in reconciling and comparing individual accounts, sometimes can make accountants Crazy and glue to the seat... More productive hours will be wasted in the absence of this feature, infact will demoralise a good professional who can otherwise effectively devote time to train many future accountants. In fact, Xero software rating will improve drastically with this additional feature. The recent report improvement is an addition and expecting this feature will be provided in the near future. Please note you have given the option to include or omit for Account transaction but the same not given for reports especially Profit & Loss account, Balance Sheet, etc. which are in fact used by the operations manager for decision making purposes.
I hope this will be added in the near future, being a big fanatic and enthusiast of Xero user, will not be left with disappointment I believe. -

I would love this. I tried to click "critical" but page said I must login first, and at the top of the page, it says I am logged in :(

I agree and would also like to see this feature

After all these years, and all these reports of the critical need for nil balances to be reported, and we still don't have a resolution?

Chris Curlett commented
It is normal for Xero to ignore suggestions by Users. Look at all the suggestions where there are over 500 supporters however Xero ignore it or provide a sanctimonious response.

I can't believe this isn't a key function already. Demonstrating that a balance sheet account balance IS actually 0 when it's supposed to be is critical. We shouldn't have to explain to our clients "oh if you don't see it at all that means it has a 0 balance."
It's insane to me that people have been asking for this for over a year now and nothing has been done.

This is critical for all the reasons mentioned.

This is critical to our integration with our close software

It would also make completing some templates needed more efficient, as the formatting would be the same as the format required, instead of having to copy and paste individual cells.

Such a pain in the neck not to have this. Have to spend 10-15 minutes each time I export to move things around in excel. Every time! Please add this!
