UK Payroll - Calculate leave in days
Create the option to use Days or hours for time off (holidays).
Holidays are often calculated in days or 1/2 days not hours.
Having this option for pay & pay rates would also be helpful and also on payslips64 votes -
Xero Projects - Bulk Delete Projects
It would be great to have the option to select multiple projects at once, e.g. Like there is for transactions. This would provide so much better management of projects. Currently it is is soooo slow to delete projects. Each deletion requires three clicks of the mouse and then the page refreshes. Such basic functionality which would be transformative in managing lots of projects.
In addition in the API there is no way to bulk delete projects either. Very frustrating!

Profit & Loss | Tracking - Ability to drill down
The previous Profit & Loss report allowed you to filter by multiple categories. There was an add t report function which allowed users to drill down into secondary categories and export ALL of the data into one report which showed 1. A P&L Summary, 2. Detailed expenditure for the chosen secondary category. The "Add to report" function allowed the user to export the entire category details as a whole.
For our business this is critical. We are a bespoke project based company and use this filter constantly & No the project feature does not work for our business....I have tried!
Without this feature the user will need manually export everything individually to be able to build a detailed report for the chosen category...the timing of this would be insane. Please Xero bring back this functionality.
I have added an example with screenshots here for your perusal. NB: Sensitive information has been redacted.

Invoices - Populate Description when importing with Item Code
When bulk importing invoices, I want everything to have the same item code and description.
BUT when they import, the item description does not pull through.
And the item code needs reclicking to make it pull through.
Therefore, you have to go into every invoice individually.
It should be updated so that when you import invoices, everything pulls through correctly.

Batch Payments - Customise Batch Payment Printout
On our batch payment printout auditors want someone to sign them off and say they've randomly verified bank accounts. Is there any way to customise the batch payment printout to include:
1. Random bank accounts verified (with tick box)
2. Signature area
3. Name of Person Signing off

Xero Expenses - VAT on mileage claims through expenses
Many are complaining about no VAT option on mileage claims through expenses. I can see why this would be timely to implicate as the fuel element changes and is different depending on fuel type and engine size.
But think for those that want to, we should at least have a VAT drop down. We could then create a new tax rate for each rate or even employee using expenses.
For example I have a director with a vehicle >2000cc Diesel I believe using the HMRC company car fuel rates this equates to 19p inclusive of VAT. Using the 45p for the first 10,000 miles the VAT is 3.1667p per mile. So I have created a code '7103 Mileage RK 45p' in the chart of accounts and added this to mileage under expenses so that RK knows which code to add to his mileage. Under code '7103 Mileage RK 45p' I have shown a default VAT of 7.037% of the 0.45p to give me the VAT of £3.1667. Obviously we could ask the employees to put in the fuel amount at 20% inclusive and the balance of the 45p at zero but not sure too many employees would do this.
The problem is with doing all this, still no VAT gets posted because there is no drop down for VAT and/or the VAT isn't coming through from the VAT default for the new code I have set up. I can't even adjust VAT via the bill option. Only option via the bill is to void it.
There are so many ways in which XERO could get this to work but to have no options but to make a manual adjustment via the VAT returns or journal seems a little wrong.
Also I have noted that I can't seem to run a nominal and add in columns 'Quantity' and 'unit price' so that I can create an excel download and easily work out the VAT without having to drill down to in to each transaction to see if 45p was used 5p for passengers or 25p. Can we have this added also to nominals? Thanks

Xero Expenses | Labels - Enable filters and reports
Would love for Xero Expense Admin to be able to see Expense Reports listing the Labels, and being filtered/grouped by Labels.
For background, Xero Expense allows employees to put a Label. The Labels can even be pre-set in the organization's settings. But the Xero Expense Admin's don't have a way to report on on expense claims by Labels.
Reporting based on Labels would allow users to tag Xero Expenses for projects for instance.
60 votesThanks everyone - It's good to know how we can enhance Xero expenses for our customers. While we'll consider how we can develop labels in the long term, we don't have any plans for adding filters within expenses or reports for Expenses labels right now.
If there's any updates to share around this I'll definitely share with you all through the idea.

Reconciliation - Bulk 'OK' for reconciling bank transactions
Ability to select multiple/all transactions during reconciliation.
Purpose: To save users time from having to reconcile the transactions one by one.
232 votesThanks for all sharing and supporting how bulk reconciling transactions and suggestions that have been matched to statement lines in your bank would help your business.
It's great to see the trust you've built in Xero's capabilities to match and help you save time from manually finding and creating transactions to reconcile your bank.
Along with building on the foundations of our platforms, the teams efforts at present have been on improving the ability to create suggested transactions for more statement lines in your org - With a lot of this being backend logics there's not a heap you'll see from the front side of things but Xero's reconcile engine is getting stronger and overtime you should find even less need to create transactions in your org, yourself.
With this work underway there is no development for being able to reconcile transactions that have the 'OK' presented option atm, but we keep this top of mind as we continue to make Xero reconciliation even more powerful.
For now, cash coding in Xero can help save time with bulk reconciliations where you'll find Xero's suggested create transactions, and any bank rules you've set up are also presented - Find out more on how this works on Xero Central

UK Payroll: Pay apprenticeship levy through Xero
I have a client that needs to apply the Apprenticeship levy and this is not available on Xero Payroll as this is normally a function for large companies and not small companies that Xero are focusing on. This is a small company, but do form part of a large UK group therefore are sucked into reporting this to HMRC. Can this function be integrated into Xero payroll to be switched on when needed? I am sure it won't be a large effort for the Support Team at Xero. More and more clients are using Xero including larger companies and this will aid future clients to join Xero. I recommend Xero to everyone, small and large companies as the addons make all functioning well.
Currently the payroll will need to be ran and the client need to download HMRC Basic tools to submit the Apprenticeship levy that is only £261 per month. What a hassle. If your Team can generate a solution within payroll, we would have a happier client.

Reports: Bookmarkable link to reports
Currently when using the new reports, bookmarking a page in Xero will take us to the specific organisation that the bookmarked screen was in.
But when using the old reports, bookmarking a page in Xero for example Balance Sheet for the year ended 30/06/2022, when i click on the bookmark link it will bring me to the Balance Sheet for the year ended 30/06/2022 for whichever organisation i am working on. This makes it easy when i'm looking at multiple entities.
Since Xero is phasing out the old reports, can you please bring this feature into the new report?
55 votesHey community,
Thanks for all your feedback on this idea.
As you’ve found, users could bookmark reports and that bookmark would work across organisations. However, this caused some strange behaviour when navigating between organisations in bookmarked reports.
By including a unique Organisation ID in the the new report URLs, the data displayed is consistent with the organisation the report was bookmarked in. The result is that users can navigate away from a bookmarked report, without Xero updating the organisation.
To be transparent here, this was a deliberate change, and there are no plans to re-implement book-markable links to reports.

NZ Payroll - Generate invoices from pay runs
Automatically generate payment invoices when creating payroll.
The current help article suggests creating spent money entries on the fly when reconciling.
It would be better to be able to generate accurate payment and separate code tax invoices when the payday is filed.
The advantages are that:
- the payment is reconciled to where it is created ensuring it is correct,
- the invoices are easily selectable into batch payments from payable invoices which correctly connects to bank batch payments,
- payments to IRD could be raised to different contacts for each payment type allowing the right references to be attached to payments to IRD.
- contacts and accounts are consistent for the payable invoices,
- At tax time the tax invoices can be easily selected and paid as a batch payment,
- Reports correctly show tax liabilities between raising and paying,
- Cashflow analysis system is more accurate.It could be added to the pay employees option drop down as 'generate invoices' or be a setting that allows these to be created automatically when the payroll is filed. While you are at it you could do the same thing for the GST payments.

Bank Reconciliation - Improve date recognition for auto-suggestion
Reconciliation - when you have multiple payments of the same amounts over several days... Always selects the Invoice to the newest payment.. even tho the invoice date is the same as the first payment? seem like the system allocates backwards?.. We get lots of the same payments and Invoice totals and we have to always manually select/search for the invoice as the Auto reconciliation seems to not factor in Invoice date to Payment date as an option.

Invoice reminders - Automatically send invoice overdue notification to designated email address
So far I know Xero only have features of sending overdue invoice reminder to customers, but in absence of the feature I mentioned. This feature is good for the operation.
The invoice overdue days could be set by us and automatically send the notification to our preset email address once the overdue day came. So that, our customer services staff can easily be notified all the overdue invoice and doing their followup tasks.3 votes -

Reporting | Groups - Option to sort in alphabetical order
In the old reports, once the account was added to a subgroup, the account code would automatically be in alphabetical order. However, this is manual for the new reporting.
A good function would be to automate this in the new reports as well (per the old reports) rather than dragging and dropping manually.

Contacts - Better explanation for BankAccountNumber when importing
Better documentation for BankAccountNumber needed.
The documentation for importing contacts is not clear, specifically how to include banking details.
First time users, such as myself, could be greatly assisted if the documentation for the BankAccountNumber was described as <bsb><space><account number>.
I did a large number of documentation and Google searches before it clicked that the BSB and account number are both specified in the BankAccountNumber field. This is not obvious.
Thank you.
