Purchase Orders - Approval for amended purchase orders
Since the option is there to amend a PO once it's been approved would it be possible to add a requirement for POs where the value has been increased to have to be re-approved?

Bills - Include a tracking order under inventory/product items
Include a tracking order under inventory/product items. For e-invoicing in Malaysia, a classification code must be tagged to each product items when issuing the bill. This is mandatory as the e-invoicing would need to be validated by the tax authorities. Including this classification code simplifies the coding for each product items and this would avoid running into errors during validation with our tax authorities.

Expense claims - Choose which fields are optional
Adding a feature in Xero that allows finance admins to designate specific fields on expense claims as mandatory or optional would ensure consistent data entry, improve financial tracking, and streamline the approval process.
Key Benefits:
Enhanced Compliance: By making certain fields mandatory, such as business function or event tracking, admins can ensure that all necessary information is provided, reducing the risk of incomplete or incorrect submissions.
Improved Data Accuracy: Mandating specific fields ensures that critical data, like cost centers or project codes, are always captured, leading to more precise financial tracking and reporting.
Flexibility: Different organizations or departments may have…

Projects - Add task categories and sub-tasks
Title: Add the ability to allocate tasks under major project categories (e.g., Direct, Indirect) and create sub-tasks in Xero Projects for better project summary management
Description: Currently, in Xero Projects, there is no option to allocate tasks under broader categories (such as Direct, Indirect) or create sub-tasks within a project. This limits the ability to organize and simplify project summaries, especially for larger projects with multiple facets.
A more efficient way to manage complex projects would be to:
Allocate tasks under major project categories like "Direct" (e.g., Manufacturing, Certification & Testing), "Indirect" (e.g., Design, Development), and Other" (e.g., Client Engagement,…

Xero Network - Send purchase order via the network
Xero to xero network - send purchase orders. Want to be able to send my regular supplier a Xero Purchase order via Xero network, who can then create a bill in their Xero, who can then send me their Invoice via Xero network. Would be super helpful given the start of the workflow is typically the purchase order.
2 votesThanks for your idea, Paul. Great to hear you find using the Xero network helpful in your workflow.
We'll gauge the interest from the community in expanding the use of the network to send purchase orders. This isn't something we have plans for at this stage but we'll let you know if there are any updates.

Bills - Filter bills list by account code
On Xero bills, as well as being able to filter and search for purchase invoices by contact or invoice reference, being able to search by a nominal code would be helpful. For example, making a payment run for all of one type of cost; finding any invoices that have not been allocated properly or for finding amounts that need to be included in management accounts.

Bills - Add planned payment date from inside the bill with a default of the due date.
Add planned pay date automatically as the due date or add a field into the bill entry screen so that you dont have to go back and add it from the bill list view.
Just a suggestion which i think lots of people would find helpful. It would give real time data from the bill screen and saves going into the bill list to add the planned payment date for the categories at the top to populate correctly.
I I believe that this enhancement would be beneficial for many users, as it would definitely save time by reducing the number…
2 votesHey Sarah, thanks for your suggestion to add a planned pay date field directly on the bill entry screen.

Invoicing - Xero Network remember based on last send for contact
“Send via Xero Network” feature in your invoicing system, which have negatively impacted our workflow and client payment behavior.
Since the update, this option now appears at the bottom of the invoice, while the sending process begins at the top. This disjointed placement is not intuitive and often leads to it being overlooked. More importantly, the system does not remember this selection, requiring us to manually enable it every time we send an invoice.
This has had a direct impact on our cash flow. Since the update, we’ve noticed a significant drop in timely payments. Many of our clients rely…

We don't have further changes planned around this right now but will start to get a sense of interest from your idea, here.

Invoice Template - Setting for Decimal format
Invoices Australia
An update in the last few months bought inconsistency into the invoicing format in terms of the decimal points on the unit pricing. It would be good to be able to define this - to two, three, four decimal points so that there is consistency on the invoices rather than some units at two and some at four decimal points.7 votesWe're grateful for your engagement and letting us know the changes that matter to you.

Reporting - Calculate % from invoices for payment report to Contractors
We pay contractors based on sales reports for each contractor. Getting this report is easy. In fact, Xero does that well. However, to get that same report and deduct a % value or any other value to work out what the contractor payment will be. Then being able to save & print & Email that report. Currently, we export to Excel, and whilst that works great, it is fiddly and time consuming. Probably not for everyone, but handy for some.
1 voteTHi Steven 👋, thanks for raising this idea. We appreciate its not straightforward calculating the percentage of invoices paid to contractors, which we know creates extra manual work. Although this is not on our current roadmap, we will monitor this idea for votes and other comments. However, for now, a workaround would continue to be to export the report and use a spreadsheet application to calculate the percentages. 📈

Ability to cc and bcc when sending emails from xero.

Invoice - Preview attachments from send window

Contact – check bank details reminder
Last Paid Date flag for Vendor or Check bank account details alert.
Increasing there is a need to check bank details for Suppliers - to make sure haven't changed. If a Supplier hasn't been used for many months, Xero doesn't prompt the bank details to be checked. We have had cases where the supplier changed owners and bank accounts but not informed us. The bank details weren't checked. it would be useful if we could have an alert or flag that prompts a check after 3 or 6 months.1 voteThanks for sharing this idea – it's a really practical suggestion.
We get how easy it is to miss checking bank details, especially for suppliers you haven’t paid in a while. A quick alert or reminder after 3–6 months of no activity could be a great way to help catch changes (like new ownership or account updates) before a payment goes through.
Your idea’s now live for others to see, vote on, and add their thoughts. If this would make things easier for your team, feel free to share it around.

Expenses - Edit Submitter when awaiting approval
The expense reimbursement function should include an option to change the submitter after the request has been sent for approval, rather than declining the request and re-enter just to be able to update the submitter name in case of 'submitting on behalf'
Additionally, it should allow exporting the entered expenses into an Excel file to verify whether everything has been entered correctly. Currently, exporting is only possible once the request has been approved. This feature is especially important when there are numerous expense lines.
Furthermore, the screen layout feels a bit cramped. Could the input fields be arranged in a…

Xero Accounting App - Add item from Product & Services to Bill
On the Xero mobile app it would make life easier for small entrepreneurs who are always on the go to update products purchased and update their inventory from a receipt that they capture on mobile app. This feature is only available from a desktop computer where persons need login from their computer to enter Bills or expenses for the purchases of inventory products. At the moment this is possible through the Sales invoices. Please make it available through purchases as well

Batch payment - Warning if contact has not be paid in the last year
It would be great to have a warning pop up when creating a batch payment if a supplier has not been paid in ie 1 year. Recently a Supplier was paid however in the 2 years since they were first added into Xero (and no bills paid since) the business was sold and the bank account changed. Additionally if Hubdoc could read bank accounts and a warning pop up if they differ from that in Xero.
