Enter your idea

I echo Andy D'Souza's first paragraph below.

we are spending huge amounts of time reconciling projects to accounting. would be extremely helpful if the project report could include account code.

The only way i have found is to use vlookups to match the date, supplier, invoice reference and amount to the accounting transaction report to be able to see the account code. This only works if the combination is unique and doesn't always work when working in multiple currencies.

Who can we talk to in XERO to get this option as an option?

I have created a framework form managing small to medium construction projects and not being able to run a report on Project by cost centre has made all this effort redundant and we will need to find another solution....

I was excited to try Projects, but couldn't quite believe it wasn't possible to report by account code. Wouldn't this just be another column to add to the Project Financials report?

I am unable to do any of my basic management accounting without being able to download the nominal codes per project. This should be a very simple fix, the information is all there. This is so much more important than the majority of the Reports that Xero provides.

This is such an obvious common sense need....it's shocking Xero isn't seeing that or doing anything about it.

Allocating Journals to project codes is so basic, I'm not sure why it's not been added yet, by looks of it, it's been required by many since 2022!

Also, being able to select a report that shows the account code, but with the column option of the project number, as you can with department.

It is surprising that this has not been sorted yet as it has been needed since its inception.

This is so critical.
To see a list of costs assigned to a Project, it seems like it would be so simple to include in the Account Transactions report an additional 'Column' for Projects. Then Projects could be filtered in order to see all costs and then could also be hyperlinked to the invoice/bank payment.

As it stands, the project reports do not give nearly enough detail or information. The costs need to be broken down into different direct expense and overhead account codes to get a true financial report of the said project. Please look to implement this as soon as possible.

This is a fundamental for our business and it is disappointing to only learn, once fully up and running, that Xero Projects does not offer reporting on account code. Please introduce this asap.

in a project be able to break the project down by the different accounts so we can see how the money was spent in a project and run it as a report.

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.
