Bills to pay - Filters to apply when editing bills (e.g Approve & view next)
In the new bills to pay draft screen even though I search for a particular supplier or filter alphabetically so I can find a certain supplier when I go into the first one and approve & view next instead of giving me the next one of that supplier (the filter I have on) it goes to the next date. I need to approve a lot of invoices and it is much quicker to do by supplier and be able to go straight to the next one. I could do this in the old bills to pay drafts but can't in…
3 votesHi community, thanks for sharing your needs with us in product ideas here. As you may have seen we've released some new features in the bills space and you should find our new quick view of a bill solves for what you're after here.
With quick view you can easily filter for a supplier, then view each draft bill for that contact before bulk approving all bills at once. Simply click the downward arrow above the bill in the side view to move onto the next. 🥳

Account Transaction Report - Show related accounts or split amounts in account transactions report
It would be great to be have the option of a "related account" or "split" in the Account Transactions Report, so that you can see the other half of the transaction (opposing debit or credit) without having to click on the transaction to view the full detail.
1 voteHey Kate - thanks for sharing this suggestion!
You can select 'Related Account' from the Columns drop down in the Account Transactions report to include this information.
I've attached a screenshot as an example 😊

File upload
Add the ability to "Drag and Drop" files for upload. Currently we have to save a PDF to then upload from the computer - more often than not we have these files in emails. It would be ideal if we could drag and drop the file into the upload box
1 voteHey Anthony, thanks for sharing this product idea!
You can drag and drop an attachment from your computer into the Files screen to upload. Check out our 'Upload a file to the file library' article for more information and detailed steps 😊

New Invoicing - Use Tab to confirm highlighted suggestions and move across fields
Currently: In new invoicing we are provided with suggested items when completing fields such as "To:".
Using Enter at this points selects that highlighted suggestion, but using Tab ignores the highlighted item.Request: Enable Tab to be used in new invoicing to confirm a highlighted selection. The same function as Enter currently provides within this context.
Tab is an active keyboard option in other areas of Xero such as Bank Reconciliations so this would keep the UI more consistent.17 votesHi team, we recently made a change to the tabbing behaviour, so now when you tab to a field and highlight an option, tabbing to the next field will hold the selection that was highlighted.
For example pressing Tab in the 'To' field will hold the highlighted contact, and move you onto the 'Issue date' field.

Xero Accounting app - Raise a purchase order
I can not fine any answer on the web or searching on xero to see if this is possible. I have tried the app but there does not seem to be an option. The xero app would be amazing if we were able to raise a PO. We store product from our supplier and being able to send them a PO at the time of picking would greatly reduce handling of the matter by not having to send an email for it to be raised. In an age where phones and Ipads are becoming more common, this solution would seem…
35 votesHi community, thanks for staying tuned with us here.
For all those on iOS we're pleased to share that this is now live for you all just like Android - you can add Purchase Orders and edit existing Purchase Orders from within the Xero Accounting app.There isn't any ability to send from within the app at present - Start a new idea for this, or another feature you'd like to see in the Xero Accounting app. That way we can begin to get a better idea of the appetite of those, too!

Invoices in other currencies - Compliance with HMRC's guidance (for UK businesses)
HMRC's guidance on invoices in currencies other than GBP, found at https://www.gov.uk/guidance/foreign-currency-transactions-vat-and-tour-operators lists specific requirements that need to be met when creating an invoice in a currency other than GBP, namely:
1. "the total net value of goods and services at each VAT rate" needs to be shown in GBP (as well as in the foreign currency)"
2. "the amount of VAT, if any, at each rate" needs to be shown in GBP (as well as in the foreign currency)"
3. the currency conversion for VAT purposes needs to be calculated in one of the following two ways:
- "UK…3 votesHi all, apologies we've not responded here before now. Checking in with our team on this our current invoice templates do accommodate what's needed here.
With the standard invoice template you can select to 'Show currency conversion as' 'Net amounts with tax totals', which display a currency conversion table with the net amounts and tax grouped by tax rates or tax components. A base currency equivalent is also included. You can see more information on displaying currency conversion on Xero Central.
We also provide a highly customisable DOCX invoice template that can be used to provide more detail if you choose.

Analytics Plus - Fortnightly expense predictions in short-term cashflow
The short-term cash flow projection should allow 2 weekly/fortnightly expense predictions (instead of just weekly and monthly predictions). The current absence of this feature currently results in incorrect cashflow forecasts (e.g. we pay wages every two weeks, so the timing of our wages prediction is always incorrect).
2 votesThanks for your feedback, it's good to hear how you're using short term cashflows.
Predictions within Short-term cash flows should be generated for recurring amounts based on the last 3 months.
Our tool looks for weekly, fortnightly and monthly payments - the dates, amounts and contact have to be fairly consistent each time for a prediction to be generated.
If you do find you're not seeing predictions you'd expect to appear for fortnightly payments do raise a case with our team of specialists so we can take a deeper dive into why this may not be showing in Short-term cash flows. Thanks

Navigation bar - Ability to bookmark most used features
Have a ribbon/menu across the top of the screen with the ability to pin a “button” that links to your most frequently used windows - eg bills to pay drafts window , or the reconcile window of the most used bank feed, or a report you run daily
1 voteHi Kristen, touching back on your idea here there are many shortcuts that enable you to navigate to the features you use most. See all the shortcuts available from Xero Central. You'll also find for Bills to pay particularly we've added the ability to set a default view 😊

Invoices/Bills - Additional options/filters when viewing invoices/bills
- There should be an option so that we can arrange bills/invoices according to suppliers /customers when processing bills/invoices just like in dext .And next option should be included in both archive and during processing bills/invoices.
- Split and merge option should be included when processing bills/invoices. 3 There should be a filter for credit note, overpayment and prepayment in archive invoices.
1 voteHi Uzair, a few ideas shared in the one post here. It's really best if we can keep each idea separate so we can gather interest in each and keep you updated of change to the product that might resolve what's being asked.
In relation to your post here we have a couple of existing ideas you may also like to add your vote for and follow for any updates.
- Bills to pay - Filters to apply when editing bills (e.g Approve & view next)
- Bills - Merge multiple bills from one supplier
In relation to invoices, you'll find when approving invoices you can Approve and view next or Approve and add another.
From the draft tab in invoices you can also select multiple invoice and use the Copy to option to create one invoice from a collection of invoices which might help when looking to merge. This way once…

Invoices - VAT/GST/Sales Tax number on customer invoice preview
To show the customer's VAT/GST/Sales Tax number on the preview version of the customer's invoice, instead of having to download the PDF to check if it is there (after loading it via Xero Contact).
1 voteHi Kyle, the product team have been working on improving this area and have released a new invoice preview for the PDF. This will display any details you have included in the selected invoice template, so should display the customer's VAT/GST/Sales Tax number if you've included that. We hope this helps!

Inventory - Auto stock level update.
Daily auto inventory update. Just as Vend sends through daily sales to Xero, it should be able to do this for inventory levels.
1 voteHey Bronwyn!
From your description, it sounds like Tracked Inventory in Xero would accomplish this 😊
Tracked inventory maintains a live count of your stock on hand, allowing you to report on stock quantity and value. You can read more about it here.

Customer statements - Default to today's date
With Customers statements it would be amazing if it could default to todays current date as it is always retrospective and eg today it automatically defaults to 31.03.2023 it would be so much easier to adjust back than forwards all the time .

New invoicing - Ability to create new item from invoice
The classic invoicing had the ability to add a new item or a new account code while creating the invoice, the new invoicing doesn't have this ability so you have to go back into products/chart of account, create it then go back to the invoice - this seems like a step backwards rather than an improvement
2 votesHi Paul, a slightly different process to classic invoicing, but it is possible to add an item when using new invoicing.
When you add a line without an item code (description based) you'll see an option from the 3 dots at the end of the line that allows you to 'Save to inventory' meaning you don't have to jump out to Products & services to add each new item - see my example below🙂

Xero Accounting app - Add reference number to invoice
We really need the ability to add a reference number to an invoice created in the Xero mobile app.
6 votesHi Owen, this is already possible. If you're using an Android device you can click the 3 dots to edit the Invoice #, reference, branding, files attached, or currency.
If you're on iOS you'll want to select 'Optional details' within the invoice - see our article here.

Xero Expenses - Delegate expense claims to another user
Allow another user in your organisation to enter and submit expense claims on behalf of another user... "so you can focus on other important things" in Xero parlance.
For example: company director can delegate the expense claims to the company secretary to submit expenses on the director's behalf.
Zoho Expense has this feature, which we use for this reason:
https://www.zoho.com/expense/help/delegation/overview/5 votesHi Mark, with the Xero Expenses app and approver/admin permission a user will be able to enter expenses on behalf of another user. Meaning your directors can focus on the more important things that matter - See more detail in our article here.

Inventory item list report - Ability to view all transactions
Browse all transactions on the "Inventory item list" report, it will also be helpful to reveiw in & out movement and can double check with other source.
2 votesHi all, rounding back on the idea here as noted in my last response you can use the Inventory Item details report to view the information you're in need of here.

Profit and loss + Statement of cash flows combo report
Business owners need to see the P&L and the Cash in one place. Please combine the P&L and the Statement of Cash Flows into one report so they can be viewed together.
This is how it is in professional 3 statement financial models: P&L with Cash flows directly below.
Providing a combo report would save many hours in combining them manually!
2 votesHi Patrick, you could do this with Management reports in Xero. You can add both the Profit & Loss and Statement of cashflows reports when creating a new pack🙂

Invoice - Copy to repeating invoice
It would be nice to be able to use "copy to" function on an approved invoice to create a new repeating invoice.
3 votesHi Lorraine, not quite labelled 'Copy to' however this is possible 😁
You'll find a 'Repeat' option from an approved invoice where you can create a repeat invoice template - See here.
