Sales - Automatatically create invoices received from otheir Xero users
Could you please consider the ability to automatically create purchase invoices from sales invoices sent from other Xero users to our account?
Likewise creating contacts should be part of this process - whereby when I receive a sales invoice from another Xero user, I should be able to click a button and it automatically appears in my purchase invoices with the fields already filled up accordingly.
This would automate a big chunk of our invoice processing time because we interact with several other Xero users!
1 voteHello, while save to Xero from an online invoice is still an option, taking a deeper look I see you're based in Singapore.
We now support Peppol eInvoicing in some regions, including Singapore (where it's called InvoiceNow), as per this community request. eInvoicing allows for the features you have requested as well as the ability to send & receive from other software.
For Singapore businesses with Xero, you can connect your organisation with 'Invoici' which will enable you to register with InvoiceNow. - Read more on how this works in Xero Central. -
Direct debit payments for SEPA region
We are looking for a solution where we can generate a SEPA direct debit XML from customer and invoice data in Xero. This XML format is called PAIN.008.001.02 which is supported by all 31 countries in the SEPA region (including the UK). Every bank in the SEPA region lets you upload a PAIN.008.001.02 XML file to collect direct debit.
1 voteHi everyone, appreciate your input here. And thanks to those of you who provided some options too!
As you're aware, we don't restrict currencies/locations from our side, so you can integrate a payment service that supports direct debit payment that's available for the SEPA region.
One of the options that we can suggest to you is to set up GoCardless as a payment service in your Xero org, as they support Direct Debit schemes for this region. You can also check out their API documentation here, if you need to see it.
That being said, we'll mark this request as 'delivered'. -
Business Snapshot Report - Add Custom Date Range Option
Not sure if this feature is already coming but would be great to be able to use a custom date range in the Business Snapshot reporting. We have clients who run on a 4-4-5 basis so would be great to be able to produce the report for their accounting period.
5 votesHi all
To use custom date ranges, and get access to more advanced features, you can upgrade to Xero Analytics Plus.
You can do this either by upgrading your subscription to the Ultimate plan, or by selecting it as an add-on.
Here's more info about Xero Analytics Plus and our pricing plans.

Projects Desktop Timer App
I would like to suggest a desktop version of the Projects Timer app. Either Chrome or MacOS would be my personal preference. The mobile app is great but when you work online it's annoying to frequently log in to your phone which is a potential distraction if anything.
7 votesSorry we've not rounded back here sooner! A little earlier this year our Projects team released an update that allows Projects users to create time entries and record time on your computer, through the Web version of Xero - See more on Xero Central
So rounding out the experience you can now record time from your desktop, or your mobile device 😊
Appreciate, recent commentary on ways you'd like the desktop timer to be further optimized for your workflow. If there's something more you'd like to see in this please do start a new idea and we can begin tracking the support for that too.

New invoicing - Show more details without clicking into each line item on invoice
Hi,
I have started to use the 'new invoicing' that's just been released and can't say that I'm particularly impressed. Some of the simplicity of the old invoicing has disappeared. Please can you reinstate the visibility of the following:
Part Number/SKU number
Discount Given
Account
Tax RateWithout these being on the one page, it's very easy to make mistakes and not notice them.
Also, when entering plain text into the description I.E. a description of what the invoice contains, if I accidentally click in quantity or tab to it, it gets auto filled with avalue of 1 which can't…
1 voteHi everyone, in Oct last year we released an improvement to new invoicing where you can now show or hide fields of your invoice in the creation screen.
Checking in on the billable expense flow - we intend to develop how billable expenses data appears in new invoicing but it's not in the roadmap just atm.
We've also made a recent update to new invoicing to separate the Approve, Print and Send options, as well as provide more Approve options to the drop-down.

Reconciliation - Bulk Reconcile transactions in the account transactions view
Bulk Reconcile transactions in the account transactions view
At the moment is very time-consuming to manually reconcile tons of transactions in the account transaction view. It would be very very very helpful to be able to tick the transactions we'd like to reconcile and be able to bulk reconcile them. At the moment we have to enter into each transaction and reconcile it. It's not scalable.
Thanks
1 voteYou can try to use Mark as Reconciled option, this is great for bulk reconciling if you have account transactions without a matching bank statement line. Heaps of detail on this Xero Central article.
Otherwise, there's the Cash Coding feature for quickly reconciling cash transactions. -
New Invoicing - Add last items
I like the layout of the new invoicing structure, though the only thing it's missing is the 'add last items' feature that was in the classic invoicing layout.

Bills - Email incoming bills to Xero to create a task list
My suppliers send me invoices by email.
I would like to be able to forward that email to a (unique) email address at xero that can preprocess that bill and put it in a task list of draft bills so accounts payable can then check them and put them into xero formally for payment.
I envisage this working just like tripit.com - there I can email an itinerary document from say an airline or hotel and it will automatically parse the contents, work out the flights, departure times, arrival times, etc and create entries in tripit for me.
I would…
1 voteHi everyone, this is now possible with either the email to bills feature, or if you've set up and connected Hubdoc to your organisation you could send documents through this.

Expenses - Viewing new expense claims on dashboard
On my dashboard, I can see details of my current and draft expense claims. I have just added some new expenses in my browser using the New Expense Claim page, and I cannot see these on my dashboard.

Option to show trading in name in online quotes rather than legal name.
