Petition for Xero Executives Regarding Alleged "Improvements"
Petition for Xero Executives Regarding Alleged "Improvements"
I encourage Xero Subscribers and other customers to start commenting and upvoting so we can show the Executives that these "improvements" are NOT improvements!
So, if you have had problems with any of the alleged improvements, some I have listed below, they include any sub issues associated with the changes.
Please add only "I agree" in comments. This will help our overall numbers into a louder and bigger voice.

101 votesHi community, I’d like to share the new Xero Central page for new invoicing that we noted was coming.
Along with updates to individual ideas on the site here, this page will become the one source for key feature rollouts including:
- what’s available in new invoicing right now,
- timelines for features and enhancements going live in new invoicing, as well as
- a comparison table between the classic and newer versions of invoicing.
We'll be updating this page regularly.
Remember, you can keep switching between the two products between now and September. Thanks

Giving Statements for Year End
It is crucial to be able to print or email statements to multiple or all contacts with received money transactions at once showing each received money transaction for the contact in a time period on individual/separate pages by contact. This is really needed functionality because any nonprofit entity needs to send giving/donation statements at year end. I have tried multiple reports and statements. I can create an Account Transactions report showing all the clients and the received money entries, but it doesn't allow me to separate contact on their own page. The functionality under Business and sending statements would be…

more flexible surcharge and payment control options
Subject: Feature Request – Option to Automatically Decline International Card Payments
Dear Xero Product Team,
I am writing to request a feature that would allow businesses to automatically decline international card payments through Xero’s integrated payment services (such as Stripe). Currently, there is no way to restrict card payments to domestic cards only, which presents several challenges for businesses that wish to limit their exposure to international transaction fees, fraud risks, or compliance requirements.
Why this feature is important:
Many small businesses prefer to accept payments only from domestic customers due to higher fees and increased risk associated with international…2 votesThanks for submitting your idea on Xero Product Ideas. We appreciate you taking time to let us know how we could improve Xero for you.

Having option to change quotes to bills to credit notes if entered incorrectly
I often create credit notes as bills in error. It would be good to be able to change a credit note to a bill or vice versa rather than having to void and re-enter.
This could be expanded to other areas of manual data entry.

Submit UK corporation tax return online as small business
We really need Xero to implement the capability for small businesses to submit their UK corporation tax return online, directly without an approved xero partner, BEFORE MARCH 2026 WHEN THE HMRC ONLINE SERVICE FOR SUBMITTING CORPORATION TAX RETURNS STOPS.
Our main justification to pay for Xero is it saves he cost of an accountant!
Currently HMRC lists Xero as an alternative software package for submitting tax returns after March 2026; but at the moment this is not an option in Xero unless you are a professional accountancy firm approved as a "Xero partner".

Automatic Card Type Detection and Dynamic Surcharge Application
Subject: Feature Request – Automatic Card Type Detection and Dynamic Surcharge Application
I am writing to request a feature enhancement for Xero’s integrated payment services that would allow businesses to automatically detect the type of card a customer uses (e.g., domestic, international, credit, debit) and dynamically apply the appropriate surcharge.
Why this feature is important:
Card processing fees vary significantly depending on the card type and origin. Automatically passing the correct surcharge to the customer ensures transparency and helps businesses recover costs fairly.
Manual calculation or flat surcharges can result in either under-recovering costs or overcharging customers, which is not…1 voteThanks for submitting your idea on Xero Product Ideas. We appreciate you taking time to let us know how we could improve Xero for you.

credit limit
Currently credit limit is only available to stop an invoice going. My beef is that a credit limit alert needs to be advised in the software at point of quotation. I have clients who are quoting, delivering the work to the customer and then finding they are having to overide the credit limit/untick the "block invoices" box as there's no choice but to do so to get paid. Quotes and invoices are dealt with by two differentt depts and therefore sales need to be alerted when their quotation is over the set credit limit before the damage is done and…

Dividends and other distributions not as P&L - automated support
It would save time and avoid accounting errors if a new document type existed (akin to Bills) that can be sent to recipients (contacts) generating the accounting transactions appropriate for distributions such as dividends and appointments from trusts. Those transactions would be on equity and assets accounts (not expense accounts and accounts payable as is the case for Bills).
It would be great if such processing could be applied to contacts in bulk (e.g. a shareholders register) but the possibility of accounting for distributions singly would be a good start.
I am a trustee and the usual distributions are cash…

MTD for ITSA - Facility to export a PDF of quarterly returns
It's currently not possible to export the Income Tax Self Assessment figures for the MTD for Income Tax quarterly submissions as a PDF to include them in a documents pack for client's approval via e-signature in Xero.
This would be helpful from April 2026, so accountants can gain client's approval prior to submission with HMRC.

custom reports - can you create multiple custom budget reports which show budgets and transactions which can easily be emailed out to collea
The ability to create multiple custom budget reports which show budgets and transactions which can easily be emailed out to colleagues at the same time. This is useful if a Xero user has multiple budget holders to report to. This should be able to be emailed as both PDF and Excel.

Report Templates - Ability to edit report codes from Chart of Accounts, not separate area.
Report Codes ability to edit from Chart of Accounts, not separate area. I see that you have marked previous suggestions as completed, because you've added a button. It isn't a button we are seeking, it is the ability to edit directly within COA, rather than having to go elsewhere. The elsewhere is still a useful tool to help identify when clients have added their own codes, but from a click minimisation perspective why not have COA and Report Codes integrated, and provide us with a field to add our nominated report code.
1 voteHi Justine, thanks for sharing this idea. We appreciate you explaining how integrating report code editing directly into the Chart of Accounts could streamline your workflow. After reviewing this with our product team, we're updating the status to 'Not in pipeline', which means it isn't on the foreseeable roadmap. The idea will remain open for votes so we can continue to gauge community interest. We value your feedback and encourage you to keep sharing your thoughts with us.

Add NDIS Funding Period Tracking in Xero
With the rollout of the NDIA’s new PACE system, NDIS participant plans now include funding periods (e.g. monthly or quarterly). Providers and plan managers must track and claim within these timeframes, but Xero currently doesn’t support this.
Adding a Funding Period Tracking feature would let users:
Set funding period start/end dates per participant or support category
Track and report spend per period
Receive alerts for overspend or expiring funds
Validate invoices against active funding periods
This would help thousands of NDIS providers maintain compliance, reduce manual tracking, and strengthen Xero’s value in the disability sector.

Reporting - PDF Preview - fix the scroll and zoom behaviour
The PDF preview pane is fantastic... except a page can be lengthy and it doesn't let you scroll on it.
If I hover my cursor on the PDF preview and scroll (using the scroll wheel of my mouse), it zooms. I almost never need to zoom on it. If I needed to Zoom I would hold control and scroll, like I would on any other browser page.
I have to move my cursor to this skinny panel either side of the page to be able to scroll, or grab the skinny scroll bar (to the right, not the left).

Xero Accounting App - Option to submit a Bill or Invoice for Approval
I would like to see full Xero usage on the Xero app. In this case, the ability to submit bills for approval instead of the current options of save and approve only.
1 voteThanks for your feedback. We know that having the option to submit a bill or invoice for approval directly from the Xero Accounting app would significantly improve your workflow. As noted in the comments, users have the option to log into the web version of Xero on their mobile devices allowing them to submit bills and invoices for approval. ⭐ This allows you to perform the approval process on your phone, though it's not as seamless as a native app experience. At this time, we have to prioritize which features we bring to the mobile app. The primary focus of the Xero Accounting app is on quick, simple tasks, like creating basic invoices and submitting expenses. Complex workflows, such as bill and invoice approvals, are better suited for the desktop version due to their complexity and the constraints of the smaller mobile screen.We will continue to review and consider this…

Multicurrency - Option to not assign Tracking Categories to Bank Revaluation
Currently our monthly bank revaluation FX diff is being automatically coded by Xero to be split between tracking categories rather than simply being "unassigned". However, for our purposes, once USD are banked, they no longer "belong" to that tracking category and instead are general company funds. It is impossible to tell Xero to stop coding revaluation amounts to tracking categories but this doesn't make sense for the accounts, especially when a tracking category finished within the business months ago. It would make more sense for the FX funds held to be an unassigned tracking category once they are in the…

MTD for Income Tax (Employed Income)
As well as my self-employment, I received income through Employment that currently I cannot declare through Xero's MTD for Income Tax implementation, and therefore I cannot use Xero for filing. The addition of allowing me to declare income through Employment via Xero would allow me and others like me to do so.

We appreciate you highlighting how important it is to declare employed income alongside self-employment income within Xero’s MTD for Income Tax implementation. Our product team is aware of this request and it’s on their radar as we assess future improvements.

Multicurrency - Support cryptocurrency directly, or have cheaper crypto apps
Please investigate cheaper crypto aggregation services than the ones available currently in your apps section. Currently (Aug 2025) all the ones there are for enterprise, or businesses that trade a LOT in crypto. And the prices are ludicrous for those of us with small amounts of crypto assets.
Maybe get the IRD to fund your research and development of this kind of thing, because it will make proper tax reconciliation possible, and their investment will pay dividends.
As an example, ZenLedger (https://zenledger.io/) lets us integrate all this information. It still costs a yearly fee (per tax year) but…

Jobber integration to sync data from Xero
There is currently a way one sync from Jobber to Xero. It would be great if a sync from Xero to Jobber can be implemented to records payments in Jobber as soon as a transaction is reconciled in Xero. Similar to what is being one with Thryv and other integrations. This will save me about 1 hour of effort everyday and about 5 hours monthly when the bulk payments come in. I have tried to implement this myself however Jobber API support states they will only allow this if a partner works with them like Quickbooks and Stripe.
1 voteHi Jaco, I want to be open that we don't typically design and build integrations with other apps ourselves. We have a Xero Developer ecosystem where interested parties can come to get information on how to integrate and sync data from Xero with their application. If not already, I'd suggest letting Jobber support team know this is something you'd like to see and if they'd consider expanding their integration for.
