Reporting - Reporting engine structure
Reading through some of the suggestions from clients and they all have a similar background theme - the reporting engine in Xero is decades behind what should a rich and easy to use reporting engine. Unfortunately it just doesn't exist. The back end data is difficult to access and find the correct meta data to even start building something that is remotely useable. There is nothing simple or easy about creating a report in Xero - there are a plethora of BI tools on the market that could partner with Xero to produce quick informative reports that are easily customised and transportable.

Appreciate the feedback, Alex - However this is quite difficult to consider in terms of the change you'd be looking for our teams to make or develop for.
Could you please detail of use cases or scenarios when you're trying to find data pull into a report or which direct fields you're hoping to report on in Xero? Thanks
