Stripe - Invoice Xero user separately for Stripe fees
In an ideal world when a client pays us via Stripe 100% of the fee would be reconciled and XERO/Stripe would invoice us separately on a regular basis for the applicable Stripe fees.
3 votesHi Jo, thanks for sharing your idea on how Stripe fees could be handled.
We understand your 'ideal world' scenario where the full invoice payment is deposited, and Stripe invoices you for the fees separately. We can definitely see how this approach would lead to a much cleaner and more direct bank reconciliation for every single payment.
We're grateful for your engagement and letting us know the changes that matter to you. We've reviewed your idea and now it can gain support from other community members. Along with votes, others can now comment to share additional detail about how having Stripe fees invoiced separately could improve their experience with Xero.

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…

Sales overview page - Option to show Invoices as GST Exclusive
Kia ora Xero Product Team,
I’d like to raise a feature request regarding how invoice totals are displayed in Xero.
Currently, the Draft, Awaiting Approval, Sent, and Awaiting Payment invoice lists always display totals on a GST (tax) inclusive basis. For businesses like ours that operate and report primarily on a GST-exclusive basis, this creates unnecessary reconciliation effort and increases the risk of error when reviewing invoices in bulk.
While we can work around this by using the Receivable Invoice Detail report set to “Tax Exclusive,” this adds extra steps and does not provide the same quick visibility as the…

Email-to Bills - Use the contact's default currency
When sending invoices to Xero email address, the currency defaults incorrectly instead of taking the currency already set for the contact. We expected the contact’s currency to be applied automatically at the stage of creating the invoice, but this is not happening.

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.10 votesWe're grateful for your engagement and letting us know the changes that matter to you.

Bills - Automatically adjust the date on imported draft bills to a set date
We use Xero on top of a project management system (Deltek PIM) which generates employee expenses and supplier invoices. When we export them to Xero they sit as draft bills which we approve. If users of PIM enter an invoice/expense for a prior period, the transaction has to be redated in Xero to prevent it changing the historic management accounts. My suggestion is that there is an option within Draft Bills that would redate draft transaction dates (before posting) to a given date, say 1st of the open period.

New invoicing - Remove invoice description character limit
Remove New invoicing description Character limit. Currently the limit is 4000 which isn't enough for large customer invoices.
26 votesHi everyone, thank you to everyone that participated in our teams survey from my last update. We appreciate your insights and these continue to help inform our teams of where they can best focus their efforts, as they continue to develop invoicing.
We don't have any plans at this stage to increase the Description field character limit from 4,000, however we're interested to continue tracking the interest in community and understand what the optimal amount of characters would be for our customers.
If there are any changes we will share an update with you all, here.

Profit & Loss - Ability to show percentages with Tracking Categories
On the Profit and Loss report there is no ability to show percentages, if tracking categories are used as a filter. We want to see COGS as a percentage of trading income, and Net Profit as a percentage of trading income.
3 votesHi Karen, thanks for submitting this idea. Showing percentages in the Profit & Loss report when using Tracking Categories would make it easier to see how different projects, departments, or locations are performing at a glance.
This feature would give you clearer insights and save time by reducing the need to export data and crunch numbers in spreadsheets.
This idea is now in the Gaining Support stage. If this would help your reporting, please add your vote or share your thoughts, it really helps the product team understand the impact.
We’ll keep this thread updated with any news.

Projects - Increase bill description character limit when invoicing from a project
Please increase the character limit for line descriptions when generating invoices from Projects.
Right now, if a bill line has a description that exceeds the small character limit, it gets cut off on the invoice. I have to then manually open each bill, copy the full description, and paste it into the corresponding invoice line. Obviously this is extremely time-consuming and inefficient for something that seems like a relatively small backend fix that would make a big difference to everyday usability.
Is anyone else dealing with this?
2 votesHi there 👋, thanks for reaching out to our Xero Support team and clarifying the difference between your idea here from the one we merged to. Apologies for this oversight - I've restored your idea here.
While increasing the character limit of a bills description when invoicing from a project isn't something we have plans for atm, we can gauge the interest from community in this and will update you if there's any progression.

Sales | New Invoice - Only show Customers when entering Contact
When creating a new invoice, the search scope includes every contact in the database, every vendor, evert coffee shop or gas station anyone ever used a credit card at. Xero knows which contacts are Customers (there's a Customer Invoice report), it should pull from Customers only. For the use case where someone is invoicing someone for the first time, they can open that Contact and then click New Invoice.
2 votesAppreciate you sharing your feedback with us here, Rob. Understand how this could help you find the contact you're after if your supplier and customer lists are quite separated.
We'll get a sense of others that would also like to see this from your idea here. If there are any updates we'll let you know.

Inventory - Increase item code character limit
Increase the character limit for product/item codes from 30 to at least 50.
Our suppliers use a minimum of 8 characters, up to 12 characters. We use 4 suppliers regularly, which all use different SKU's; This means we can have 36 characters for standard products, even more if there is a supplier we don't purchase too regularly from or if there are 2+ similar products that get grouped under one item.

projects assign staff

Onboarding - Add Xero to the list of "What tool are you currently using to run your business"
When creating a new organisation, there isn't an option to choose Xero from the dropdown list of "What tool are you currently using to run your business". I'm migrating from one org to another because of limitations in your PAYE scheme functionality. Right now, a user can't select Xero from the list, which may help you shed light on users who are either running into org challenges or who are power users of your tools.
