Sticky top menu and organisation name to prevent wrong-entry
I would like to request a usability improvement for the new Xero interface.
Currently, the top navigation bar (Home, Sales, Purchases, Accounting, etc.) and the organisation name disappear when scrolling. Because these elements are not fixed, users often lose visibility of which organisation they are working in while entering data or reviewing long pages.
This has already caused several situations where data was accidentally entered into the wrong organisation. It’s not a user error — it occurs because the organisation name is not always visible, which makes it difficult to stay oriented during detailed data entry.
Proposed solution:
Please make the top menu and organisation header sticky (frozen in place), similar to “Freeze Panes” in Excel. Keeping the organisation name and navigation visible at all times would:
Prevent accidental entry into the wrong organisation
Improve accuracy
Reduce scrolling fatigue
Enhance workflow speed
Make navigation easier and more intuitive
This small UI enhancement would have a big impact on users who manage multiple organisations.
Thank you for considering this improvement.
