Reports - Improve speed when launching reports
The new reports are significantly slower than the old reports. I was wondering if this has been experienced/ shared by other users? And if Xero were working on improving this?
Appears Xero has gone backwards in terms of efficiency...

NZ Payroll - Ability to set employee with a daily rate
I have a number of clients that have employees that are paid a daily rate rather than an hourly rate. We currently can't use Xero payroll for them as the payroll needs to use hours rather than days to pay. It would be great to use Xero if there was an option to pay a daily rate rather than an hourly rate.

Sales Tax (CA) - Support 'Quick method' GST/HST tax calculation
Support Quick Method of GST/HST tax calculation for Canadian small business. Small business corporations in Canada have an option of so called Quick Method of GST/HST tax calculation that is based on a marginal percentage from the sales revenue amount instead of full balance of taxes collced and paid. Many small businesses choose to use QM because it frequently and significantly (upt to 30%) reduces GST/HST taxes payable. Current GST/HST tax report does not support the QM and the manual workaround method through tax adjustment is not 100% corret in terms of the line numbers in the report. Enabling QM support will significantly increase usability and value of the GST/HST tax report for small business users in Canada. More about Quick Method here https://www.canada.ca/en/revenue-agency/services/forms-publications/publications/rc4058/quick-method-accounting-gst-hst.html

Bank Reconciliation - Summary Report with Imported Statement Balance for all banks
Can the new bank summary report have the option of adding in the imported statement balance for each bank account. This would provide a quick way of checking which accounts need more work rather than having to check each reconciliation report for each bank account when there are multiple bank accounts (I have 10+ and it is arduous having to run each reconciliation report just to check the balance)
7 votesHi everyone, while not a direct solve for the idea here we wanted to share a recent release that improves customers ability to confirm their bank balances using the new Bank Reconciliation Summary report.
With the new report you'll now find you can enter a Bank statement ending balance. This means where an imported statement balance has not imported, or doesn't match your actual bank statement balance you can now enter an amount and update the report. Xero will then calculate the balance out by based on the amount you've entered in this field.
Currently this is still on a bank by bank run report, you can switch between banks you have in your organisation from the Bank account field.
If there are any plans to develop a view across all banks at once we'll let you know here.

Accounts Receivable and Payable details reports - Flag manually entered 'expected date' in reports
On the Receivables and Payables Detail report, include a flag that shows when a planned payment date has been manually identified (as opposed to the credit terms due date). Will simplify cashflow forecasting

AU Payroll: Ability to archive or delete old timesheets
I want to be able to archive or delete old, previously processed timesheets. In the timesheets section, processed timesheets from 2018 continually rise to the top and it is annoying and time consuming to always change the sorting order to find the most recent, or filter via a start date. This is all annoying. I want to remove old or previously processed timesheets from this list, or at the very least, have recent timesheets/those waiting to be processed automatically listed at the top.

Xero Expenses - Ability to edit exchange rate
"As an employee submitting my expenses I don't want to be left out of pocket because Xero Expenses doesn't allow me to set the exchange rate I was charged by my bank."
Xero Expenses uses XE.com exchange rates for foreign currency exchange rates and it's not possible to override/change this.
It should be possible for the employee, or approver, to manually set the foreign and domestic currency amounts, or set the exchange rate itself.

Account Transactions report - Ability to change default columns when drilling into report
Although you can save a custom Account Transactions report as the new default report, Xero still displays the original default Account Transactions columns if you drill down to account activity from Balance Sheet or Income Statement.
This currently requires re-adjusting the column settings every time.66 votesAppreciate the detail, and thanks for raising this here in the forums.
While this isn't something we have direct plans for atm, we're keeping an active eye on the idea here and will share if there's any change.

Reports - View bank reconciliation narration in account transaction report
Description Field with the bank narration
This happened as a couple of newer client and new to xero in the contact field wrote something incredibly different to the bank narration which makes it very difficult to review the general ledger information.
For example in the General Account the transactions descriptions are all listed as "John Smith" when if the bank narration option was available I could see it is Officeworks, KFC, etc and this would make it easier to realise these are miscoded and reallocate.

Batch Payment - Support TXT file format
Allow a bank file that is supported by Coutts to allow batch payments to be made.
8 votesHi Iain, having a quick search it appears that Coutts accept 2 file type formats, TXT and CSV.
It is currently possible to export a CSV file from batch payments - read more on Xero Central.
I've slightly adjusted the title of your idea here to request TXT format, however want to be open that we don't have plans for developing new file formats for batch payments at this time.

Budgets - Import Tracking budgets
Please please can you sort your system so that when we are bulk importing our annual jobs that it is possible to import the budget also - I have asked for this for many years but to date nothing has changed. I hope that now that you have finally updated the system, after several years of empty promises, perhaps this is now a possiblity. It is far too time consuming to enter the budget manually with over 1000 jobs and would speed up our invoicing if the budget field was imported instead of having to look elsewhere for the fee. Reporting would also be more valuable and doubly so if we could also import the actual hours anticipated for each job instead of just a generic time allocation on the templates. This in turn would then make your new Time Budget field actually worth having!

Quotes: Hide line item cost
When we create quotes we do not want the individual cost to be sent to the client as we may increase or decrease price depending on actual needs. Therefore I would like to send a quote with all the products/services itemized but not individual cost just a TOTAL?

Contacts - Add a new contact directly into a Group
When adding a new Customer have a field at that time to place the new customer into a Group.
Would save time later and enable a better CRM feature for later marketing.2 votes -
Navigation - Hide tool tips/help banners
Is it possible to permanently remove the help banners that continually appear at the top of screens in Xero?
Ideally, it would be nice to use these (if needed) and then close them off permanently, so they don't reappear every time you work in the file.
They take a significant amount of space at the top of the screen so you actually have to X them out.

Bills - Bulk add Due Date when creating bills from Purchase Orders
Draft Bills - BULK add Due date when bulk approving.
- need to use when creating RCTI's from purchase orders. We have the option to bulk move from Purchase order to Draft Bill, but then must open each one individually to apply the due date so that they can then be approved.Another alternative is to add a 'due date' field on the screen when choosing to transfer the Purchase Orders to the Draft Bill page

UK Payroll - Adding Employee Group data to reports
You can enter a group for an employee on the employment information but this function cannot be used on the reports.
If the information of which employee is in which group, then surely its not a huge leap to add this function to the reports. Using the gross to net report, you could select a group rather than an individual, saving a lot of time.

AU Reports: Gender Equity Reporting
Appologies in advance for my frustration.
Are Xero considering providing a Gender Equity report in the future?
I raised a case for our HR Dept last year and the answer from Xero was no.If any community member has any short cuts on gathering this info, please respond to this post.
I am wasting so many hours trying to gather the required data from your available reports.
In April I exported Employee contact details to export & sort.
This morning I have been exporting Renumeration data and then sorting deleting non date range required emplyees. Due to no date range option for this report.Then this afternoon moved onto manually saving a PDF Payroll Activity Summary report for each business loaction (11) and now each individual employee (176). (can't find anything shorter that lists allowances seperately and totals ).
Why this report is not available as ALL individual employees I'm not sure. Drilled that down by location would be even better.As a business we are chased to comply and provide this information annually - our lodgment deadline is 31st May each year.
.
I'm sure Xero's HR/ payroll departments are aware of this annual Gender Equity reporting to the Australia Government.This information was much easier to gather from the old PAYG employee summary reports which listed allowances seperately (Yes everyone I know I'm old!).
Failing a standarised AU Gender Equity report, and the fact Xero will not supply old fashioned Report Generator access to users (allows any data title to be included in a report you build yourself - time consuming but at least you can get most data in the same location), are you able to provide a summary report in PDF & Excel format that supplies Payroll Activity Summary in a single all employees report with excel export. Then that data could be sorted and added to with data from various other reports to get close to lodgement data required.
Sorry Guys for the waffle.
Hope some other users can offer their wisdom on how they handle this task.
I'm so over my head.Many Thanks

Invoice Branding - Increase limit from 15 Custom DOCX themes
There is no reason to have a limit of 15 Custom DOCX Branding Themes (when those are needed to be used as RCTI). Organisations that issue RCTI do so for many clients so why limit it.

Checks - Only capitalise the first letter of the City on US checks
Checks (cheques) cut for Xero US subscribers should print addresses accordingly. Not all the letters in a City need to be capitalized. City not CITY. Furthermore, there should be a comma after City. And if you use the Attention feature in the Contact Address, it should print as the first line in the check address. Currently it prints as Vendor Name, Attention: Jane Doe. That makes for a very odd, confusing addressee on the check.
