Navigation - Return to previous screen after viewing/editing a transaction
Ability to return to the previous screen after the user edited a transaction.
Purpose: To make users easily continue working on the previous page rather than having to navigate from the different page again.

This, along with not being able to search for items from every page, is a reason why I’d recommend other cloud accounting products over Xero.
It’s a small and seemingly insignificant change that actually saves a lot of time and frustration.
Why would it chuck me out to a banking page rather than whatever I was working on after I’ve edited a transaction? That doesn’t make sense and it interrupts work flow. -

I would like to have Xero go back to the original page I was looking at. For example - I am looking at Accounts Receivable Aging Detail. I click on one of the invoices, and when I close it, I would like to be returned to the AR Aging Detail Screen. Instead, I have to go through three clicks to get back to the detail screen (Accounting / Reports / Aged Receivables Detail). This takes too much time and happens in every instance when I want to drill down on a transaction - I have to retrace the steops I took to get there.

Maintain Intuitive Workflow
After completing a task, return to the screen from whence the user came, rather than dropping into other screens. E.g. Currently, if I select a client invoice from their Contact record and Add a Payment, on completion, I'm dropped into the Paid Invoices screen; to me this seems unintuitive. Ideally, I want to go back to where I came from - i.e. All Invoices of the particular client.

This! I open the contacts list, select a contact, edit the entry, it goes back to the contact list after saving instead of just returning to the entry for the contact I was editing. A definite improvement can be made there.

Please update this - it is an impediment in what is otherwise such a great, intuitive product

It is so time consuming not to be able to do this, please update this.
