Credit Notes - Show the invoices/bills the credit is allocated to
Automate the showing of which invoice or bill a credit note has been applied to.
I work across about 20 businesses who use XERO. All waste time when the customer or supplier allocates credit to a different source document to my client. A way to avoid this is to automate the display of which Invoice or Bill a CN has been applied to, in the email templates and attached PDF's.
XERO potentially currently works on the idea that a CN is applied to the Bill or Invoice the credit was derived from - but in practice this doesn't always work, as the bill or invoice may have already been paid.

Invoice Reminders - Set up for a Contact group
It would be great if we could turn automated invoice reminders on and off for contact groups, rather than needing to do it for each individial contact.
34 votesThanks for taking your time to share and support how setting Invoice reminders for a Contact group would be beneficial to your business.
Our product team have started research for the future of Invoice reminders and we wanted to make sure we shared this sign up form with you all here - We'd love to have you join and feedback.
Throughout the research our team may engage through surveys or direct interviews, and your input would be really valuable!

Financial Accounts - Switch rules effect notes
Would like to see switch rules work in the notes to the financial accounts the same way they work on the balance sheet - allowing for reclassification of accounts with negative balances, for example negative current asset to current liability or negative non-current liability to move to non-current asset.
These issues are particularly acute when an account goes from positive to negative and vice-versa between current year and prior year.
On the basis the switch rule does not operate correctly in the notes to the financial accounts, means that in many cases the switch rule is rendered an unusable feature - as switch rule will work in balance sheet but not in notes to financial accounts.

Billable Expenses - Retain source currency when invoicing expenses
When we rebill a transaction to a client that was already paid, if the amount is paid in Euros, for example €5,000, when I issue the next invoice to this customer, the expense automatically shows up to be included in this invoice. The issue is, when I choose this transaction, even though my invoice is also being billed in Euros, the amount is automatically converted to GBP (my company a/c's currency) and then is converted back to Euros so the amount to be rebilled shows us as a different figure either positively or negatively in my favour depending upon the exchange rate at that time. We do not wish these transactions to be converted from EUROS to GBP and then back to EUROS, simply put, the amount I paid in Euros is the amount I wish to bill the client. My question is, how do I stop this "behind the scenes" conversion which I believe is due to the fact that my company a/c's default currency is GBP? All my clients operate and function in Euros and all my invoices issued to them is always in Euros so this is an issue that happens routinely and is very time consuming to have to manually identify the original Euro amount and correct for each individual rebill item?

Quotes: Generate as legal 'Estimate' instead of quote
I believe being able to update all fields to show the word Estimate rather than Quote would be extremely beneficial. I have been able to update all except for the wording of Online Quote Link

Bills - Give approvers access to limited suppliers
Xero access - Limited permissions for approver
In the process of bills approvements we need the approvers to have limited access to suppliers (if they can access xero currently access allows them to see everything on the system). For example:
approver A has limtied access to supplier B
Approver C has limited access to supplier Dapprover A could not see information regarding supplier D and approver C could not see information on supplier B.
This would help us to avoid having an extra software that handles approvals when everything could be done through xero.

Expenses: Option to change default from company to personal
We have a lot of personal expenses (reimburseable) and no company expenses within our business - when employees input their expenses it defaults to company money.
Occasionally these slip through the net and aren't changed prior to approval.
Can we switch off 'company money' in expenses - or can we set 'personal spend' to be the default option?

Aged reports - View Credit note allocations
Just looked at the new Aged Payable report > Aged Payables Detail - it doesn't show credit notes which been allocated to invoices. This is very confusing as we can't reconcile against the statement. Please review the report and add in credit notes, even if they have been allocated to the Invoices, or advise which report I need to use when reconciling the account.

AU Payroll - Show 'actual' leave balance in employee record
Make it so that an employees actual current leave balance is shown on an employee's record under the leave tab. Not just the balance with future leave applied. It's frustrating to have to download an employees pay slip to view these balances.

VAT late claims report
Hi,
Something that would be very helpful as an accountant, is the ability to run a report for a given date which shows all the transactions where the VAT was claimed/paid on a later return. I know that the VAT reconciliation report doesn't work with MTD.
Happy to discuss to help with this.69 votesThanks for sharing and supporting here, everyone.
For those that aren't already across, though manual at present you could run the Account Transactions report to manually reconcile against your filed VAT returns.
We appreciate the process could be more automated. Though this isn't something we have immediate change planned around atm, we'll update you here if there's any news.

Xero Accounting app | Bank feed - Ability to refresh
Given that your bank feeds constantly don’t work, it would be great if they could be refreshed via the app, rather than having to login to a computer.
5 votesHi Tahnee, the process can slightly differ from bank to bank. Is there a specific bank connection you'd find this most useful for?

User Role: Ability for standard users to have access to Uncoded Statement Lines
I would like to recommend that standard access users be able to access a very handy "uncoded statement transaction report" that at this point is only available to the advisers role (usually accountants). I am told for advisers it appears on the front page of bank reconciliation. If it wasn't for chatting to an accountant one day about typing out lists to my clients I wouldn't know about it. I guess you don't know what you don't know. This is an extremely helpful tool when trying to send lists to bookkeeping clients / business partners or employee's when you are chasing backup documentation (invoices/receipts/income info) from. I find it quite illogical that accountants / adviser role are the only one's given this particular report when it is the bookkeeper needing to get all the transactions allocated finalised for them to do their magic. I can't for life of me understand what reason there would be that this report isn't given generic access. At this point I have Advisers/accountants that run this report off when needed but naturally this comes at a cost to the client and a waste of accountants time. For years I have been typing out all the unallocated transactions to send to my clients to chase up and as much as I am a fast typist it's a little frustrating the person that needs to get the information finalised for the accountants doesn't have access to this simple report. I propose that the "Uncoded Statement Transaction Report" be amended to include for standard users. Please vote for this to simplify getting the work done. Appreciate your help. Roz

Bills - Set up repeating payments
If I'm paying a bill by monthly direct debit (say Business rate), it would be useful to have the ability to set up multiple payments instead of having to set up 12 separate identical monthly payments.

Contacts - Reinstate the 'Payments in past 12 months' feature
The recent changes to the contacts screen have done nothing but hinder our business. You have removed the "Payments in past 12 months" which is something we rely on heavily when managing our clients. There is now no way to see all payments by a particular client where there are credit notes applied or they have paid by different means (sometimes by card, sometimes DD and sometimes bank transfer) as we would have to search each account separately and manually pull out the credit note balances. Very laborious and this is information we use daily in our credit control procedures.

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.

AU Payroll - Add the name of the leave approver to connected app notification
Please can you send the name of the 'leave approver' to Finlerts LeaveCal integrated app. We get leave approval email notifications via their Xero add on and it would be really helpful to know the name of the person that approved a staff members leave application.
There has been cases of team leaders with leave approval permissions authorising their own leave so this would help us monitor these situations.3 votes
