    Hi team! We've been following the conversation here and appreciate you taking the time to explain the need for this feature.

    We understand you’re looking for a way to change the default setting for the ‘Show journal on cash basis reports’ checkbox in manual journals, so that it’s unticked, and that having this box ticked by default can create inaccurate cash basis reports, which is particularly challenging when you’re correcting entries or dealing with a high volume of journals.

    We may look into this with a finer lens further down the line, but want to share that there's no immediate works planned to enable changing the default for whether a journal is Cash basis.

    As many of you have noted, right now you'll need to manually untick the box for each journal entry.

    If any change is planned for this we'll be sure to share with you all, here.

  3. Ability to show attached documents in Reporting.

    Hey everyone, thanks for your feedback on having the ability to run a File Attachment report in Xero.

    We know it's a bit of a manual process right now, but to confirm there are currently some places within Xero that'll help provide a view of the files attached to transactions, such as the account transactions page in the bank reconciliation screen, or the list pages like on Invoices or Bills.

    Though we really appreciate you highlighting how this feature would be useful to you, we want to be transparent that we don't have any plans for building a report of this nature right now.

    Though the idea has been updated to Not in pipeline it will remain open for votes. If there are any changes that change this state we'll make sure to share with you all, here.

    Hi everyone, understand the confusion in some of the recent comments here. To explain how this works at present - A report will automatically default to portrait or landscape mode based on the width of the report. The more columns you add, Xero will automatically switch the layout from portrait to landscape mode.

    The same report should not change from user to user, if you're finding this it may be worth checking your printer fit settings and if these differ.

    We don't have plans for developing an option of whether a report prints in landscape or portrait mode atm, but our teams are across the interest of this, so if there's any change we'll share an update on this with you, here.

  8. Ability to edit Inventory adjustment.

    Purpose: Because it would allow the accountants to reverse the effect of any wrong adjustment.

    Appreciate the interest in being able to search by description. While we're attentive to your feedback, I want to be open that we don't have any immediate plans for developing this atm. 

    We're staying close to feedback on how we can improve navigation for our customers when using Xero, and I'll let you know if there is any development planned surrounding this, here. Thanks

    Hi everyone, right now the only way to edit a cover page in Xero is when you're publishing the report template. 

    Then you can change the Title, Date and Prepared by options. To further change the cover page, you can export the report template to a PDF file and customise it using a PDF editor. This would also be an option for editing the page numbers


    We made some changes in Report styles for our new reports in 2021, though this is only for practice users - They now have the option to choose from four font sizes, and can add a text watermark to exported draft and published reports. 


    We don't have plans to develop this functionality further in Xero atm, but we'll keep you updated if our plans change.

  14. To allow multiple Fixed Asset Changes to be made at once and also selecting multiple Assets to Register at once.

    Purpose: To save users time. Especially when dealing with large Asset Registers and users have to edit it one by one.

    Hi community, thanks for your interest in this idea. Just wanted to pop in here to share, for those who aren't already aware, that you can export the Receivable Invoice Summary report. The report has a 'Last Payment Date' column that you can add to it which is useful for finding customers who habitually pay late so that you can take appropriate action.

    To be transparent, building a feature to show the average days to pay by customer isn't on our roadmap at this time, but we'll be sure to update this idea if that changes in future.

  17. Ability to have custom text in the ‘set reference’ when setting up Bank Rules.

    Purpose: This will save users’ time when they’re doing reconciliation each week.

    Hi community, thanks for your continued input to the idea here. While this isn't something we have planned in the near term, we wanted to share a possible

    alternative where you could send the prepayment transaction to your customer.

    Unallocated customer prepayments can be found on the Awaiting Payment tab on your sales screen. You could add a separate invoice template to use with receipts for prepayments and consider making the following changes.

    • Change the 'Approved Invoice title' field to Receipt.
    • Deselect the Show unit price and quantity columns.
    • Deselect the tax column.
    • Deselect the Show payment advice cut-away

    We'll continue to stay tuned to the idea here, and let you know if there's change.

  19. Add an option to remove and redo transactions within the find and recode function.

    Purpose: To simplify users’ workflow from having to recode to another code, or individually search each transaction in account transactions, then remove and redo it again.

    Hi everyone, thanks so much for sharing your comments and support for this idea. We really get why you'd like a central report, so you can check each customer's payment history just to see who's paying late.

    Currently as mentioned in the discussion here, you can see a customer's average days to pay on their individual contact record, but we know this isn't the same as having a single report for all your customers. 

    While we can see there's a lot of interest in this, it's not on our current roadmap for development. Community members will still be able to vote - So we'll continue to keep a close eye here and will let you know if anything changes.
