Business performance - Negative + negative resulting in incorrect profit
Mathematically a negative x a negative = a positive. But when this is gross profit @ 312%, it does not represent the business financial position.
1 voteHi Charlotte, sorry we haven't responded to your idea sooner. Appreciate your screenshot and raising this with us. I'd recommend this is something our Xero Support team take a deeper look into with you. If you can raise a case with them through Xero Central they have tools to be able to escalate this with our product team if not working as it should.

Bank Reconciliation - Recap transaction option prior to reconciling
Please add Recap Transaction found in MYOB.
The feature allows you to see which accounts will be affected (debited or credited) by a transaction you're about to enter. Seeing what effect a particular transaction will have on the accounts allows one to know the outcome of transactions with accuracy. This is a powerful feature that can prevent incorrect entry of all kinds of transactions. See attached screenshot from MYOB5 votesAppreciate not the exact feature you're looking for here and will be good to get a sense of the interest of this here. In the meantime, I wanted to make sure you can find this information once reconciled. Those with the Standard or Adviser roles can run the Journal report to view recent impacts to accounts and the user that made each change.

Repeat invoicing - Automatic attachment placeholders
Automated File attachments for repeating invoices.
Is it possible to add a feature where attachment placeholders can be saved with a repeating invoice.? So that attachments can be bulk uploaded at some future time and they are included in the draft invoice using file name matching. "[contactname][year][month].csv" for example. Even better if this could done with all the attachments extracted from a single uploaded monthly zip file. The zip file could also perhaps contain a txt file with a simple filename to invoice matching array for a more flexible approach. I know that adding attachments is easy via…

Projects - Ability to set a default tracking category
Number of fields for projects is really poor, I need a tracking category added to projects so for example we can have four different types of projects which I want to categorise in the initial project set up. When costs and revenue are then allocated to this project it's also automatically allocated to the tracking category associated. At the moment I'm having to manually allocate to every transaction. Would be made easier if like sage they had a copy above function but we don't even have that either, so clicky!

VAT - Override VAT box figure and delete Adjustments
VAT In the VAT boxes you have to "adjust" the figure rather than entering the relevant amount. Why can't you just enter the figure and move on. It would be much easier. Also you can't delete what you've done in a box or re-start the entire return. In my view it makes Xero a sub-standard product.

Invoice report - Ability to view adjustments to tax
Would like to be able to find and recode transactions in bulk or have a report somehwere, where we can search the "include Adjustment to Tax" amount on any transactions. There is currently no way to find transactions that have this and to correct we have to find the batch payment, undo, edit the invoice, approve and re-batch. Not ideal.

Purchase order - Compare purchase order amounts raised compared with budgeted accounts
For Purchase Orders:
1) Able to assign departmental head for approval ( email goes to manager for approval and they can click and approve ) . Can create a approval level all from Xero to email.
2) Able to see budget against PO , once budget uploaded approver or procurer can see department or nominal account budget before approval.
1 voteAppreciate your idea, Sadan. Sort of 2 different requests in the one here.
We have an existing idea for being able to assign a user that can approve purchase order that you may like to join and vote for.
I'll slightly update the title of this idea to reflect the request to compare with budgeted amounts. We don't have any plans for this right now, but will get a sense of the interest to begin with through this idea.

Trust Account Management - South Africa Legal
South African Law is in desperate need of a simple Xero based Trust Account Management system.
Xero is so easy to use for the Business transactions, a similarly user friendly option for Trust Account Management would be a dream.

Invoice reminders - View email sent to customer
On the contact activity it tells you when an invoice reminder was sent but what would be really useful from a contact relations POV would be to be able to click that interaction and view the email so that you could screenshot/resend it to a client who says they didn't receive it. For example I have one saying at the moment they never received the reminder but did the one after and the one before? Odd? Proving the amount, email it went to etc would be a useful "told you so" if you know what I mean.

Bank Feeds - Bank feed form status for all users
When a bank feed form is uploaded, you can see the status of this - currently if one person has uploaded bank feed form, no one else can tell. Would be great if it just showed "bank feed form uploaded and being processed" or something

Xero Accounting app - Check if uploaded fully before save is enabled
Xero app - Adding a Receipt - check if image/s are fully uploaded before the Save button is enabled/allowed or run a check when the Save button is selected and if image/s are not fully uploaded alert user to wait.
Xero app - Adding a Receipt - auto compress images larger than x size.
The Xero app is incredibly slow when uploading images eg; receipt scans. These are not expenses, the expense app works differently and is much faster but I can't use it for business receipts as they are not 'claims'. It has become slower each time I've upgraded…

Import Accounting Data
Given there is an option to 'Export Accounting Data' in 'General Ledger format', why is there no corresponding facility to Import in 'General Ledger Format '? I have a client with many problem transactions locked by accountants. The solution is to start again with a copy of the accounts, which involves splitting the exported data into several different import templates.

Reporting - Set a Start Date for the Trial Balance
Trial Balance - Start dates
The TB needs to have start dates please!
A TB is a list of balances from both the P&L and BS.
The P&L needs start dates as well as ending dates as it is compared to a "video". The Balance Sheet only needs an ending date as it is a snapshot or a "photo".
Therefore the two selections for the TB in Xero are messed up/ wrong/ misleading/ liable to cause errors:(add your own term here)
End of last month
End of last quarter
Both of these give you the figures for the whole of…

Reporting - Run Prepayments Monthly
Is there a option to run prepayments like depreciation on fixed assets like Sage does?
4 votesHi Tracey, not so familiar with how the reporting works in other accounting software, however there are a few reports you can run to view prepayments in Xero. If you find one of these quite useful, you could save the report as Custom so you can easily access it anytime.

Lock dates for time entries in xero projects
We're currently using xero projects a lot and something that happens fairly regularly is staff posting time entries into finalised periods. I.e. we have run reports and finalised an accounting period and then there have been later changes in those periods in xero projects. It would be good to be able to lock periods in xero projects as we do with financial informtation in xero.

Budgets - Calculate as a % of another line
I'm setting up a budget in Budget manager. Is it possible to budget that one expense line is a percent of another - eg Superannuation is 11.5% of wages payable?

VAT Reconciliation - Ability to view tracking category
Adding tracking categories to VAT return/reports:
I would like to run a VAT return/report per quarter to be shown by tracking category rather than as a whole. There is not an option on the current VAT report to add the tracking categories, therefore I think this would add benefits to any client that uses tracking categories for departments.
41 votesThanks for your response, Jordan. Can see why the Account Transactions report won't fit in this scenario.
To be upfront we don't have current plans around this with much of our reporting teams focus on change in the new reporting framework in lead up to removing older reports in July this year - More on this here
I've slightly amended the title of your idea and we'll feel out the interest for this here and update if any change is planned.
For now if not already, I'd highly encourage sharing link to the idea here with your clients and colleagues that'd like to see this to support, too.
