Xero Advisor Financials - Automatically fill notes or alert if figures don't match
Currently notes need to be updated manually on the financial statements (as far as I am aware). New accounts need to be added to the respective notes otherwise the figure in the notes will not match the figures in the financial statements.
I feel that this is inviting error as inevitably there will be times where this process is overlooked.
it would significantly simplify the process if Xero recognises where a note is connected to a financial statement line item, and then automatically fills in the notes with the same accounts grouped in the financials.
at the very least, there should be an error alert if the total in the financials do not equal the total in the connected note.
