Being able to list the costs assigned to a project by expense category is a requirement by our client, and I'm disappointed to learn that this is not a feature.
Hoping that this can be brought in very soon.

The lack of ability to analyse project data by account code is a significant oversight by Xero, and hugely limits our ability to recommend the product.

I'm really surprised this isn't already implemented. I want to break down project expenses by type.

This is vital and I'm somewhat surprised it has not been included from the start, which I think is suboptimal. Or if not, allow reports to be customised to include this as a category.

Since we are allocating project line by line, I don't understand why there is a report which can give us this information.

This would be a great feature for me too! I have Projects, but without being able to breakdown by account, it is not particularly useful.

I would have thought this would have been a fundamental addition - to be able to report costs by cost code. I have even struggled to get supplier name added onto a report but have a workaround but it still isn't giving me the information i need without cost codes showing! Please help.

As a bookkeeper for a construction firm where some nominal codes are subject to CIS deductions and some aren't this is absolutely critical to the use of the projects reports.

Producing cost codes in the Project Reports would be so useful!

Please add cash coding to the project reports, this is critical to be able to use project reports

I would like Project Reports to be able to categorise transactions by the Chart of Accounts Code would be immensely useful. That way, for each project, you can track the main categories of expenditure - e.g., travel, wages, etc.. For projects where money is allocated by category (such as travel, salary, equipment), you can then see if you are over/under budget. At the moment, the only way of extracting this information is to use the tracking option, and to have tracking categories that match your Projects.

Please include this vital function. I allocate all items to a project with an accounting code. I really need to be able to run a project report with these codes. Please help!!!

It would be useful to run a report on cost of sales codes and see which projects they have been allocated to. This will highlight where costs have not been allocated.

Details of the different cost types is vital to preparing cost reimbursable account presentations for our client.

Is this something that Xero will look at urgently to develop.

Thank you

For the project reporting, can add account codes to the report?

Hi, I've raised this before but it seems like such an easy fix I wonder if there is any possibility of it being actioned.

The latest Project Financials report is great and I use it often but I constantly need to export the report and reorder the spend lines in order to give our departments the info they need.

Can the Project Financials report please be ordered by operating expense?

We categorise the transaction against an account when it comes in so it should surely be fairly easy for that report to include this info no?

Any help or advice you can offer on this would be hugely appreciated and would save me an enormous amount of time.

Exactly the suggestions I would make already made for me, thanks Sarah.

This is critical for our business. In order to properly assess agency profit each month we need a breakdown by project of transactions and relative to the Chart of Accounts.

Please make this happen.

Please add extra filters/headings to Projects reports to show what account codes have been used for each transaction on a particular project, eg. costs for labour, materials, overheads etc. Sage had a report called "Cost Transactions By Cost Code and Project" which does such a breakdown so that each individual transaction is easily identifiable without drilling down into each transaction.
