I back this idea, I run two companies and would like to be able to assign a company color to the menu bar so I can tell them apart.
If this messes with Xero's corporate scheme, maybe a customisable logo somewhere would also work.
C'mon guys this is an easy fix... 👍

It would help tremendously for all of us with vision issues and partial sight loss

Maybe we'll get it if they add it as a new feature for an additional subscription ;D

This is my feeling exactly @Marc Allinson.
"It shows either that they don’t look at this forum, or that they have a total lack of regard to our experience once we are signed up."
Once we are signed up and they are getting our money for a product that doesn't live up to our expectations, they no longer care about us and focus on recruiting more unsuspecting customers. I tell everyone who asks, not to move to Xero and also have left reviews telling other people the same. It is definitely not what it once was.

Yes. It’s been asked for repeatedly, but ignored.
A small ask, that will make a huge difference to users.It shows either that they don’t look at this forum, or that they have a total lack of regard to our experience once we are signed up.

This idea has been suggested since April 2022 and still not implemented - changing a colour on the toolbar to reflect different companies/clients doesn't seem like a big ask - all in favour please vote and hopefully it might be actioned!

Having different colours would make it so much easier to select the correct organisation, especially as I have organisations with similar names. Please, please, please implement this!

Please action this idea, it would be a simple thing that would help to reduce the risk of posting in the wrong company

Suellen Cooper commented
voting yes for this definately. too many business files that commence with similar names but now with duplicated colour identifiers it's inefficient to go through them to find the correct business entity

Significant benefits for users that would reduce frustration with the product quickly and easily

We have a client who can't see the colour blue - the ability to change the colour of the text would be extremely beneficial!

This would definitely help with avoiding putting information in the wrong company when you have multiple companies operating

We have two current sister companies and soon expanding to have 3 - I need to know which company ledgers I'm in and by visual colour will assist and avoid entering information in the incorrect company

It will provide valuable support for those like me who benefit from visual cues for identifying differences quickly; minimising the potential for mistakes.

The ability to customise the color of an organisation in Xero’s "change organisation" navigation section is highly valuable for users managing multiple client accounts. This feature would allow users to color-code each organisation tab, helping to visually distinguish between different clients and minimize the risk of entering data incorrectly. When working with multiple clients or organisations, it’s easy to accidentally enter information under the wrong account, especially if the interface for each organisation looks identical. Color-coding provides an additional layer of distinction, making it clear which organisation is currently active.
For example, users who have designated specific colors for each client's files could match those same colors in Xero, creating consistency across platforms. This would improve efficiency, accuracy, and ease of use, allowing users to quickly identify the correct organisation tab at a glance. This customisation aligns with Xero's goal of providing a streamlined, user-friendly experience, especially for accountants and bookkeepers who manage numerous organisations within Xero.

This would be so much easier as we have multiple companies through Xero.
Please add it
