New invoicing - Remove split screen when sending
The split screen when sending an invoice makes everything cluttered. I already approved the invoice, I dont need to see it as I add an Email address
4 votesSorry to hear you don't like this feature, Richard. We've heard from others that this helps them get a better picture of what their invoices will look like when sending to a customer and enables them to make changes on the fly without having to preview or send a copy to themselves first.
Appreciate it might not be everyone's cup of tea and while we don't have any plans for removing this atm, we'll get a sense of the interest through the idea here.

VAT - Support multiple VAT accounts for control and suspense
Can the VAT account be split into two, a method that Sage utilises?
A vat control account and a VAT suspense account.
The VAT suspense account will show the balance of the Dr or Cr of vat payable or owing from transactions included in the VAT return, this is where the Vat payments to/from HMRC are posted.
The VAT control account shows the balance of transactions where input/output VAT has been realised from invoices raised/received, but are not yet included in the VAT return typically because the the company is operating the VAT cash scheme.
These two accounts could be…
2 votesHi Robert, being upfront this isn't something we have any intentions of changing in the near term. We will continue to track interest in your idea here for the time being but would be quite a fundamental change to the way tax works in Xero.

Projects - See a list of spend money transactions not allocated to a project
It is possible to see a list of bills not assigned to a project.
However, I would like to be able to see a list of all transactions not assigned to a project including spend money and receive money.

Reporting - Custom Complex Formulas
Ability to create custom formulas in reporting, specifically to be able to (+) some accounts and (-) others. Support referred to this as custom complex formulas, but it is a simple formula. We just need to be able to customize them.

Projects - Show outstanding invoice balance under "Quotes & Invoices"
On projects under "quotes & invoices" it would be great if it showed the remaining balance of the invoice. I send 4-5 invoices per project and sometimes clients pay a random lump sum and i write it off against the invoices but that can lead to an invoice being part paid and being able to see which invoices have been paid or have a remaining balance under that view would be beneficial instead of having to get out of projects and searching the invoice under the invoice tab.

Business Activity Statement | GST Audit report - Add transactions source field
I would like the GST AUDIT REPORT to be permanently updated, so that the transaction SOURCE FIELD would be included in the report. Otherwise the report should be customisable to include this and many other fields / options, so any of us professionals and internal accountants can extract what we need to review client / business BAS data easier, and lodge the BAS's quicker. There are MANY ideas for the GST AUDIT report to be customisable and several are also relevant to me and my needs, but I couldn't find a request for this one and it is such an…

Bank Reconciliation - Option to Save a draft reconciliation for completing later
Reconciling funds - I need to be able to save Reconciling items while I'm half way through reconciling.
eg - I receive large amounts via bank statement - eg $16,000. That $16,000 will be made up of 10 holiday home bookings. Then I break down each booking into cleaning, credit card fees, our company commission, Airbnb commission, etc etc. Sometimes there may be up to 80-100 lines of items. Currently I can not save and it is really frustrating as it can take an hour to do and then if I have to leave or can't reconcile I need to…8 votes -
Prepaid Expense Manager
My Idea: Somewhere to enter a prepaid annual or longterm expense (ie Insurance) that can first go into a Prepaid Expenses asset account and then set to either expense at regular intervals until "used up" or able to manually expense as periods come to a close. This manager would help keep track of all prepaid expenses in one place and would keep a running balance for each item. Viewing options would include being able to filter/sort by item (ie 2023 Insurance Premium), or by type (ie software subscriptions) or by expense account (ie Insurance Expense).
5 votesHi team, while we don't have a direct feature that would automate the entire process, there is a way to record and do this in Xero.
You could set up an account for the expense in your Chart of accounts, and reconcile the original payment to this account. You could then set up a repeating bill or invoice template to auto generate and you'd make payments on it to the same account to reduce the balance over a period of time.

Projects - Repeating projects
Would it be possible to set up repeating projects? IE if I do the same work for a client each month to save me keep setting up a new project could I choose for it to be a repeating project?

Bank Rules - Ability to search by Account Code
It would be very useful to be able to search bank rules for an account code, since account codes cannot be archived/deleted if there is an associated bank rule. I eventually found the relevant bank rule but it was very time consuming to go through each bank rule individually - there can be hundreds of bank rules.

Bills - Temporary pop up after creating bill and view bill opening in new window
A slight nuisance when creating bills, that seems to have started happening as part of the new invoicing 'updates' as I never had these two issues before.
1) There is a certain bill transaction that I add monthly, usually 10-15 per month. The lines are always the same so for speed I always copy one bill to another and so on. Once I add the payment Xero sends me back to the home screen and a pop up appears in the bottom left hand corner to 'view bill'. I click on this to then copy the bill for the next…

Small request: Include the cover & contents page by default, please.
The following is info from a Support webpage... Publish a report from the Drafts tab. In the Accounting menu, select Reports. Select the Drafts tab. Click the menu icon kebab style menu icon to the right of the report you want to publish, then select Publish.

Cash Summary Report - Include Primary Person
Cash Summary Report to include Primary Person Please.
Can you get a cash summary report to provide in order 3 items as per below
Invoice No ... Contact ...Primary person
I cant seem to find a report for all three .
We send 170 invoices out client who pay sometimes do not include invoice number and we have to track by firm name or contact which can vary also on bank receipt information.
e.g.
I need "Primary person" to help "match" an unidentied payment. so searching for "primary person" identifies the invoice number or the right contact.2 votes -
Projects - Keep items in the same order when invoicing
When creating an invoice from a project-keep items in the same order as they appear in the project. It is very confusing when all the items are in different places than they were in the project and I have to reorder everything.

Batch Payments - Ability to 'split' when reconciling
Currently a client can upload a number of invoices and then create a batch payment for these invoices. When they make a payment for 1 of the invoices in the batch, you have to remove and redo the payment then match the separate invoice up, and then recreate the batch payment, excluding the amount which has now been paid. Would be easier if like with invoices, the batch payment could be split, saving the new to remove and then recreate the batch payment.
333 votesHi everyone, thanks for the idea and support here. We appreciate all the valuable feedback and ideas shared regarding the ability to split batch payments when reconciling, and understand it currently takes extra steps to reconcile when a single invoice among a batch has been paid, or when there are multiple payments to the same entity for different invoices.
Being transparent, we don’t have direct plans for making this change within the foreseeable future but if anything changes in this space, we’ll update you on this idea! -
Bank Reconciliation - Navigate to top of page when moving between page
When Reconciling a large bank feed It would be good if the page went back to the top so that we did not have to scroll up every time.
At the moment when you get to the bottom and page forward it stays at the bottom of that screen2 votesNot a direct solution to what you're asking here, Tony. However you may find it a useful shortcut to press the 'Home' button on your keyboard which should bump you from the bottom to the top of any screen 😊

Invoice List view - Upload invoices (like you can with bills)
Having the ability to upload invoices in the same manner as the recently introduced bill upload would be great addition for those users who run industry POS software that generates sales their invoices and stock and ordering management.

Validity period for Tracking Category
We would like the possibility to assign a validity period to each new "Tracking Category" entry.
This would mean that you don't have to see all options every time the Tracking Category drop down list is selected e.g. when entering an invoice.
It would also help to limit the Tracking Category options available to employees, for example, when they enter their expenses.
1 voteHi Amanda, Tracking was originally designed to be used as a way to track and monitor parts of the business that did not have a lifespan like departments. Appreciate there are many different ways our customers have grown to use tracking, and we'll start to track the interest in this through your idea. But do want to be open that we don't have any plans for this at present.

Reporting - Sankey Diagrams
I would like to suggest adding the capability to generate Sankey diagrams within Xero. Sankey diagrams are highly effective in visualizing the flow of resources, such as money, energy, or data, through different stages or categories. They could be used to illustrate cash flow, revenue distribution, and expense breakdowns in a more intuitive and engaging way.
By adding Sankey diagrams, Xero could offer users a more dynamic and insightful view of their financial data, helping them better understand how money moves through their business, leading to improved decision-making and reporting.
4 votesInteresting idea and good to hear the different visualisations that'd help our customers understand their business, Paul. This isn't something we have immediate plans for but will be good to get a understanding of the interest from the community here.
