Xero Login - Enable Passkeys as a replacement to passwords
Passkeys (https://fidoalliance.org/passkeys/) are rapidly taking over passwords and are infinitely more secure than passwords.
Intuit are already using Passkeys (https://fidoalliance.org/case-study-intuits-roi-from-passwordless-customer-authentication/)
53 votesHi team, we've just launched passkeys to our first group of users. From this week, Xero Me app users who haven't set up MFA yet will be able to use passkeys to log into Xero. Next, we'll be progressively rolling this out to more users over the coming months. We look forward to and welcome your feedback here. As we have more news on the rollout I'll share with you on this idea.

Login - Ability to set a Password Expiry
Hi Community,
In relation to XERO security, I suggest all users should have a password expiry functionality where after a period (eg 6 months) it prompts all users to change their password.
5 votesHi Simon, thanks so much for taking the time to share this great idea about improving login security.
We've had a look, and your suggestion to add a password expiry feature is now open for the community to vote and comment on.
We're keen to see what others think! They can now add their votes and share how this would help them manage their own business's security policies in Xero.

Expenses - Permission to submit on behalf without approval
Expenses - I want to be able to give an employee the ability to submit on another's behalf but not to be able to approve them or see everyone else's expenses e.g. Executive PA should only be able to submit her the Executive and not have the option to approve or see another employee's expenses.

Invoice templates - Ability to edit Title for Prepayments
Invoice Settings - Branding Themes - Prepayment title
Why can't we alter what shows on a prepayment? We have several customers who mistakenly pay us twice for invoices, this is made worse when we send them the prepayments (of the double payments) which say "Tax Invoice" suggesting this is money owing to us. Why can't we change the title to "Credit Note" or similar, so that our customers know that they've overpaid without us needing to manually contact each customer.
It should be a fairly easy fix, seeing that most types of invoices, quotes, drafts, etc have the ability to…2 votesThanks, Will for submitting your idea.

Xero Login - Authenticate with Face ID on desktop
Hi Xero. I can log into Xero on my phone using facial recognition, but it's not available on my desktop, why is that? Should be easy to do, right? Current MFA whilst necessary is cumbersome, facial ID is simple and safe.
2 votesGreat to hear that you find the Face ID authentication on your app useful, David. This may be something we bring to the desktop over time but isn't in the plans just yet. We'll feel out the interest for this from the idea here and I'll keep you updated of there's any news to share.

Missing Setting options approved and awaiting approval
The two-way communication between Xero and integrated software/apps needs to have at least some settings options – currently, there are none. At this point, it’s either connect or disconnect. The way Xero and the integrated software communicate is based solely on what they envision businesses using Xero would like as features, with a strong focus on streamlining processes. To make things as simple as possible, all invoices and costs added to Fergus (and many other project management apps) just go straight into Approved.
When staff members, contractors, or anyone with access to the software/app can add costs to ongoing projects…

Ability to restrict account access when you have more than one to different users.
Ability to restrict account access when you have more than one to different users. We are a small business and have one employee that helps us with some basic accounting needs such as allocating payments, creating invoicing and quotes BUT this is only required to do this in one out of the 4 bank accounts within our Xero account. For many small businesses that have serveral accounts i.e. tax account or savings account etc you need to be able to restrict what users can view or have access to these. At the moment its either access to all accounts or…

Restrict access to certain financial reports
Similar to Reckon, have the option to provide access for admin staff to view selected reports, eg, AR & AP without providing permission to view all financial information.

Block certain contacts on a user profile
Adding the option of blocking a user from seeing certain contacts. E.g. having a sales manager who can see the salaries of all they employees, which can cause some ruptions. Having the option to block the user from seeing certain contacts, would help this.

User Roles - Ability to filter and sort list by roles and permissions
As part of our QA, we review the list of users to check that it is up to date, eg, remove terminated employees, remove auditors at the completion of the audit or revert to Read Only, etc.
It would be great to be able to filter/sort the view by access type, such as looking only at Payroll Employees, or filtering them out.

Reports - Shortcuts for navigating Financial Statement Reports
Shortcuts for Financial Statement Reports
It would be extremely helpful to have shortcuts to navigate financial statements.
E.g. 1 would go to the first page of the report, 2 would go to profit and loss, 3 to balance sheet etc. this would assist with quickly switching between different reports in the financial statements.4 votesHi Emile, appreciate you sharing this suggestion for specific shortcuts that would improve efficiency when working in reports. This idea is open for fellow community members to support through voting and comments.
We also have an existing idea for more shortcuts in Xero - we'd encourage you to also add your vote to that broader idea here: Navigation - More keyboard shortcuts in Xero.
Voting on both helps us in two ways: it shows our Reporting team the specific need you have, and it also contributes to the overall demand for more keyboard efficiency across all of Xero.
Thanks again for your valuable contribution to the community!

Invoice templates - Prevent past invoices from updating when a template is amended
Amendments to Invoice Templates.
If you make amendment to an Invoice, the amendment should only be applied from the date & time of the amendment & should Not apply the amendment to all your previous Invoices on your records already sent!
Note, currently the only way around this is to create a new template with the amendment.1 voteThanks Ian, for submitting your idea!

Notifications - Screen to maintain settings for notifications
I think it would be great to have a screen to manage notifications settings.
This could present a long list of notifications for different things (e.g. for me the important ones are activity statement due soon, STP filing overdue).
For each item, the user could select if they want it active, how they want to be notified (e.g. header line, or in a widget), and whether to be emailed (very helpful for people like me who only log in once or twice a week and do a days work).As a side note, the first of my important ones was…
14 votesHi team, while not a feature wide control we've implemented a change leveraging Xero notifications service so you can set a reminder and stay on top of Activity Statement lodgments - Within the settings of this report you'll find a due date reminders tab where you can select a recipient and when you want the reminder to be sent.

Invoices - display autopay label to users who do not have standard/advisor roles
Current user role permissions require the Standard or Advisor role to use the auto pay feature for invoices. However, this role also reveals financial information that a sales rep should not have. Our sales reps, therefore, have Invoice Create/Edit capabilities. Within these capabilities, or perhaps as an optional toggle, I would like them to be able to set up auto pay and see if it is active so they can get it set up for clients as part of the closing process.

Oustanding supplier invoices
Being able to access supplier invoices using the link in the email. Currently we can only access the invoice related to the email. When trying to view other outstanding invoices, I get the message that I don't have permission to view that page and to have my access upgraded even though I have full access (bar subscriber). It would be great to be able to, as a bookkeeper, access other outstanding invoices. A lot of clients will use the link, see that they can access the other invoices, and not see an issue.

Notifications - Ability to create custom notifications
CUSTOM STAFF / BUSINESS NOTIFICATIONS
This page states I can set up custom notifications in the business section under features and notifications but this is not available in my xero, only 'practice organizations' have these features.
I want to be able to set up notifications or reminders for my staff. For example to follow up a sent quote or other tasks.
Also, I think quotes should have the same reminder system as invoices as I think this will assist with getting quotes accepted.

Branding - Links to Invoices from custom DOCX Statements
Link to Invoices on Custom Statements
Xero recently added a link to Invoices on the Standard Statement. Thank you! However, this is only helpful if you're using the Standard statement. We would like to be able to add the Invoice link on Custom statements as well.
