Reporting - Balance sheet b/f line for charity accounts where funds span multiple years
Where funds span multiple financial years it would be good to be able to add a brought forward fund balance (balance sheet item) the the P&L fund report (income & expenditure for charities where tracking categories are used for the funds) so that the charity has full visibility of the fund available - last FY brought forward + net amount for this FY = total fund till available

Reporting - Bring back ability to highlight text in main report area
A while ago before an update, when working on a set of accounts in Blue Xero, there was an option to 'highlight text' from the main screen of the report, but this was changed to make it so you had to go to 'edit layout' in order to be able to highlight text yellow.
It would be so great if we could have this feature back on the main page as it was so much more user friendly. I would suggest in the area next to the bold/italics/underline/bullet points area which is where it used to be.

Dashboard - Option to hide graph for bank accounts
Bank Account Graphs on the Dashboard - I would LOVE to turn these off. They take up space and are of little value.

AU Payroll - Next employee button on employment information screen
Currently we can search employee's data by using the dropdown arrow and selecting a specific employee. Can we also have the option for an arrow which allows us to simply scroll through each employee's record rather than having to use the dropdown option each time

User Roles - Allow Invoice Only +Draft users to edit auto-created bills
Our users email received invoices to Xero and then go into the Drafts Folder to check/process the bill - but if we make their Role 'Draft Invoice Only', they can't see the draft orders that the system created from the emails.
This means that the users can't use the auto Bill creation process and have to enter them manually.

Xero Me - Timesheets default start and finish times
Ability for the employee in Xero Me. to be able to create a timesheet template so that they don't have to complete the start, finish and break times for every day every pay period.
40 votesHi community 🙋
Thanks for starting this idea! Did you see last week that our Product Team released an update that helps speed things up on Xero Me Mobile? They’ve enabled the ability to copy previous time entries in start-end timesheets on a per day basis. To do this, enter your time entries as usual for the first day in your timesheet, and then select the “copy from [date]” option when adding a new time entry for a consecutive day.
The team are interested in further exploring improvements in this area, but at this stage there are no firm plans to progress this idea. They’ve got their eyes on the ground though - closely monitoring your ideas, votes and comments. -
Project Summary report - "Project to Date" time period option
We often need to generate Project reports for the time period 'Project to Date'.
This isn't an option in the Project Summary report. Can this be built-in as a further standard option?

Xero Go - viewing attachments without downloading
It would be great to have the functionality for Partners/Accountant to be able to view Xero Go files as you would in a cashbook, ledger or business edition organisation, by seeing a preview of the document without having to download it.
This was the case when Xero Go was initially came out and only an odd invoice needed downloading, now it is all of them, across various clients.
I would take a guess there may be an issue with the app and photos it takes, these are jpeg and should just come up automatically when we view them. A fix would be great!

2 votesHi community, thanks for engaging with us here on Xero Product Ideas. As you'll have recently seen in our communications - We have spent the last year testing and refining Xero Go and after completing a careful review to understand the future of the product, we found greater investment was required to meet the changing customer needs and expectations around the product. As a result, we will be retiring Xero Go on 12 September 2024, and will move this idea to not planned. We really appreciate the support from you all who have been using the app during this free period.

Contacts - Compact view to reduce white space
In the new contact view, everything is spread out, with lots of wasted white space (similar to the bills list without 'compact view' toggled, or the list of repeating bills (which doesn't have the ability to be compact in view). I can deal with the info I need to pick a transaction to open being on complete opposite sides of a widescreen by pulling the contact into a new window and reducing the width of that window until it's readable without excessive twisting of the head (a poor workaround for an ergonomics risk, but it's the only one I could find) but there's more space between the text lines I'm comparing than the text itself takes up. The ideal spacing between lines of text is 130-150% of the height of the font, and Xero has chosen a little over 300%.
It's very pretty, but it's not ergonomic nor user-friendly. There's so much white space that it doesn't meet Web Accessibility guidelines, because Xero has used it to, in effect, separate lines within a paragraph instead of separating paragraphs from each other. It's not prose, it's a table. The data is MEANT to be compared to each other, not separated by what feels like an infinite void - and since we cannot readily adjust the spacing of either columns or lines to meet our personal requirements, it fails at Accessibility there too.

Reporting - Rollover current/GST account codes to Opening Balance account
Would like to see Current Account codes rollover each year to an Opening Current Account Balance (same with GST codes, Tax codes, HP's, Bank loans) - like P&L items do to Retained Earnings code. And show the Opening Balance on the Trial Balance.
Currently Xero Trial Balance shows Current Account codes (& all of the above codes) with accumulated Opening Balance & current year movement.
However the report formatting in the advisor standard reports appears to be driven off movements in the current year (so we can't journal the closing balances from last year to an opening balance code - because that is considered movement)
Jump forward a few years and these current accounts & GST codes etc will show millions and millions in the YTD column on the Trial Balance as are accumulating - ideally want to see just the movement in each code for the year, with an opening balance - rolled over account for each of these codes.
Report formatting is currently an issue because of how Xero is picking up the eg Current Account/GST codes. If the P&L codes can roll to the Retained Earnings code, could the Current Account codes roll to an Opening Balance code please (likewise with other above codes).

Accounting Data - Option to select what to export
General Ledger export from Xero file. Currently when you export the general ledger transactions from Xero and import into MYOB (which we use MYOB AO for our year end Financials) the transactions are the full audit history of the Xero transactions not just what shows in a general ledger report. If transactions have been edited in any way this creates multiple additional entries and reversals to sift through in MYOB. It would be great to have the option to exclude the audit history transactions and just have what shows in the general ledger report.

Projects - Assign bills to closed Projects
As an event company, we often receive bills months after the original project is "complete". I wish I could assign costs to "complete" projects the same way that I can assign invoices to "complete" projects.
38 votesHi Leah, when you've closed/completed a project it is still possible to add Bills and new Expense tasks to it.
From the bill you'll be able to look up and assign lines of your Bill, or within the project you can simply add an expense. The only transactions you can no longer add once closed are Billable expenses, Spend monies and time entries.
Is there a specific reason you need to enter the expense as one of these type of items?

Quotes - Automatically add attachments when emailing
We have to disclose certain information when issuing quotes and it would be very helpful if we could choose a template that automatically adds documents to our quotes as instead we have to; create the quote; process it; go back into the quote; attach the files and then send this out to the client. We only have 1 business manager and this is very time consuming for them as their time could be spent elsewhere.

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.

Invoicing - Auto send receipt when payment applied to invoice
Allow XERO to automatically send a receipt to a client when an invoice is paid in part or in full.
102 votesThanks for all the feedback and detail on your needs in the idea here. As you'll see from each others comments there are different points at which businesses would want to be automating this process. Not really a one size fits all approach.
As noted in recent comments, we recently made a change for new invoicing flow where (like classic) you can now choose to Send receipt from the payment confirmation that's shown once you apply a payment to an invoice.
At this time we don't have plans for automating this flow however we're still attuned to the idea here and will be sure to share if there are any plans made toward this in the future.
