Ability to edit the layout of the Check Voucher
When using pre-printed check stock, information on the voucher overlaps information on the pre-printed check. If you could change the layout of the voucher, this problem could be eliminated.

BAS (AU) - Monthly PAYG Income tax instalment
Xero doesn't currently have the option for reporting PAYG Income Tax Instalment on a monthly basis. Could Xero look into providing this option in the monthly BAS Activity Statement reporting.
64 votesAppreciate your input here, everyone. Our team has looked into this idea to better understand the needs and complexities involved, however they don't have any concrete plans for it just yet.
Rest assured that our eyes are on the ground monitoring your feedback and votes here, so please keep adding them in this thread. For the time being, I’ll move this idea into ‘Under review’ status. And if there's any movement, we'll make sure to come back here and let you all know.

Bills - Ability to set a default for 'Approve and Add Another'
When posting a bill, you must use the drop down menu to "approve and add another" because the button defaults to just "approve". If there was a way to change this it would save time when entering multiple bills at once.
10 votesThanks for sharing in community here, Lindsay. Sales invoices and Bills are developed quite separately in Xero and we have a separate idea for the same in Sales invoices across here that you may also like to support.
Atm, we don't have direct plans for this change in either area but we'll keep those interested in each idea updated if there's any news.

UK Payroll - Secure form for fraud prevention
A company we work with here in UK was recently a victim of an elaborate but simple fraud, resulting in the loss of around £5,000 from the payroll.
The scam went like this:-
- Scammer fakes an email to HR from an employee requesting the bank details for their salary be changed.
- HR fails to spot the "EXTERNAL EMAIL WARNING!" and forwards this email to the person who updates the payroll. They also didn't spot the fake email address, or double-check with the employee.
- Bank details for the employee are updated in the payroll and bank payments.
- Some weeks later, the employee concerned then contacts their manager as apparently they had not been paid this month. The fraud comes to light. "I never sent any email changing my bank details!" The scammer is long gone with the money. Whoopsie!
It would seem to me that the simple solution to this is not to accept, EVER, any instruction to change bank details via email. Instead, employees should be directed to a page internally or in our case in Xero, which can only be accessed by employees with a login and preferably requires two factor authentication.
The form could allow the employee to enter their new bank details. Xero sends a notification to the employee's known email/phone contacts to confirm the action, and then the person responsible for updating it receives a notification in Xero to update the bank details.
This approach would considerably reduce the risk of this type of phishing fraud, as any scammer would need to have access to xero and would have to get round 2fa, with at least two people checking the request before any bank details are changed, and not just fake an email: "Please to be updating my bank details... thx..."

3 votesThanks for your idea here, Rob. I've made sure to share this back with our Payroll product team. We appreciate your desire to prevent fraud, however there are also employee laws that implicate this process. It's something we're keen to track demand in here, but want to be upfront that there are no immediate plans for developing this.

Bank rules - Option to pause/disable Bank Rules
Would be great to have a "Disable" button for checked/selected Bank rules on the bank rule page, rather than only a "Delete" button. Sometimes staff want to turn them off but we don't want to delete them.

Bank Reconciliation - Save for later option
SAVE FOR LATER section within the Reconcilation page
We should be able to add a transaction to the top of the list to a section that doesnt scroll, another tab or click a button to change its colour to signify it is now in a special section for 'saving for later'.
Sometimes a transaction needs looking into further and when doing recon you might end up with half a dozen of these, it would be really handy to be able to group them at the top of page or turn them a different colour so that when continuing on they are out of the way and you know you can ignore them for a little while, instead of scrolling through all of the transactions to get to the next transaction that you CAN actually complete.
If you were to put these in a tab of their own, reminders would need to be present on the currently viewed page to let us know that recon cant be completed until those grouped 'saved for later' transactions are completed (would just need to be a brightly coloured button somewhere on the screen that can be clicked on to take us to the saved for later transactions.
But I think the ability to just change the colour of 'save for later' transactions would be simplist.SAVE FOR LATER section within the Reconcilation page

Invoices - Keep Invoices search bar permanently open
Dear Sir/madam,
Is ther a way to have a search bar permanetly open. It disappers every time a change between invoce tabs.
Perhaps it can be one search bar on top of the tabs with a choice of permanently open or closed with option to search invoice status as per tabs.It seems more convenient than clicking search buttom prior search all the time you switch the invoice tabs.
Best regards,

Projects: Default markup in projects
There is currently no way of putting a default mark-up on supplier invoices that are being assigned to projects. Many of my clients have a set mark-up on all invoices, so the means that they are frequently entering the same information. This would be handy to have a default setting (with the options of it being overriden if needed) to stop having to do the same thing over an over.

Overpayments - Create Overpayments with Tax on for cash basis VAT
Ability for Xero to treat an overpayment with VAT on - I don't want to use a secondary debtors control account.
We have a client on the VAT cash accounting scheme and we have a number of overpayments which need to hit the debtors control account. When I run the VAT return, these amounts are not being captured for VAT purposes since there is no option to select a tax rate when using the overpayments option.
Should I treat these as prepayments, Xero will allow me to code these to a nominal account with VAT. However, the nominal code I need Xero to code to is the debtors control account, which you can only choose when selecting the overpayment option, (and as mentioned above this doesn't allow you to select a tax rate).
What I want to do is to treat this receipt as an overpayment which hits the debtors control account but also attracts VAT. The client is on the VAT cash scheme, so I believe the overpayments must be included for VAT purposes - I don't want to use the work around of using a second nominal for debtors and posting these receipts as prepayments.

Invoicing | History - Show detail of action made
With the currect feature History and note report we are able to see which invoice for example has been edited - change name of invoice - reconciled etc. However we would like to have a more detailed view, for example if an invoice is booked in USD and someone will change the currency in EUR we are not able to see this change , we can see only that the invoice is edited by X person but we are not able to see the change. How can we have this feature?
24 votesHi everyone, while we still have more changes planned in this space I wanted to fill you in on the more recent changes in this space.
We have now added the ability to view the email an invoice was sent to in history, as well as adding timestamps for more insight into when an event was made.

Invoices: Bulk update invoice all lines
It would be extremely helpful to have a 'master' input at the top of each column of a quote / invoice / bill etc so that the master input is then auto-populated under that column heading for all line-items of the quote / invoice / bill.
For instance, my sales code is likely to be the same for each item of a given invoice, and yet I need to input this code as many times as the number of line-items in the invoice - rather than just once. Same for eg tax code and, in my case, I have a custom field too.
These entries are very frequently identical for a particular quote / invoice / bill, and yet I need to complete this process for every discrete field, rather than make one selection per column. It would significantly improve efficiency from an input perspective.
Even with a master input, I would envisage it still being possible to change discrete entries if one or two line items required a change subsequent to a master input being applied. Much like a master 'select/deselect all' feature works - ie the ability to 'select all' then subsequently unselect one or several entries, or conversely, deselect all, then selecting one or two discrete entries.

Billable Expenses - Show Bills that have and haven't been assigned as billable expenses
To have a list that shows bills that have and haven’t been assigned to billable expenses.
Purpose: Users can easily identify which bills that have and haven’t been assigned to billable expenses.
150 votesHi everyone, we appreciate the importance of being able to view and understand where billable expenses have and haven't been assigned. While we have keen eyes on the idea here, with other big pieces of work on the go we want to be open that this is not in the roadmap atm.
We want you to know we're taking on board all your feedback here, and will continue to stay across this, and keep you updated of any news or progress that'll improve visibility for your needs here. -

New invoicing - Ability to add Account Code within the invoice
It would be helpful and efficient to be able to make or add an account code straight from the "account code" dropdown in the bill/invoice/journal without needing to go to chart of accounts to make a new one. Currently, users still need to go to the chart and then go back to the bill/invoice/journal but since this refreshes the page, it erases all the data already filled up in the invoice.
21 votesHi team, as mentioned in our last update here our team were looking into improvements.
You may have already noticed but we made a change since this was initially raised so when you select '+ Create new account' at the top of the dropdown list in the Account field, the Chart of Accounts screen will open in a new tab. Fro here you can create the account, and when you return to the invoice, the new account is instantly available for selection.
We are still considering future improvements of enabling account creation directly within new invoicing, so I'll update if there's any news of this to share, here.
