Xero UI - Unify date selectors
At a quick count there at least three different date selectors used in Xero. This makes it clunky for users and some date selectors are functionally outdated. Examples, the date selector used in Invoices (best) vs the one used in Reports (worst) vs the one used in Leave.
Use the same date selector(s) across the entire product. One that allows for:
- Keyboard entry of date(s), multiple formats eg 23/08/23 as well as 23 Aug 2023 (Invoices does this)
- Shortcuts like 'This financial year' etc - where applicable
- Quick year jumps (unlike the date selector in Reports - nobody likes pressing the back button 84 times to go back 7 years)
- Entry of start and end dates in the same window - where applicableAt a quick count there at least three different date selectors used in Xero.

Inventory - History and Notes to show the PO's that make up the Quantity on order
When you look at an inventory item, it shows that you have that item on order, but it doesn't show you in the history and notes, what PO that the item is ordered on. All it shows in the history is the Bill's and the invoices.
IT needs to show in the history the PO that the goods on order are ordered on.

AU Payroll - History of leave requests
REQUESTING LEAVE
Firstly, when an employee is submitting a leave application, they are unable to adjust the number of hours they are taking when submitting this leave when the leave period is for more than one day. This is problematic for part-time employees that may work different hours on different days of their working week.
RECORD/HISTORY OF LEAVE REQUESTS
Also, employees used to be able to see the number of hours taken but this is no longer the case - why is this?
LEAVE APPROVER ACCESS
And finally, my client has multiple entities that use Xero for payroll processing however requires employees that are employed in one entity to approve leave applications by employees in another entity. The only way that I understand this can be achieved is by setting up the approver as an 'employee' in the other entity so that they can receive these leave application requests and action as required. Is there an update to Xero coming that will allow for leave approvers to be set up as a User with leave approver access only?REQUESTING LEAVE

It's correct that currently it's not possible to enter a number of hours leave if the request spans more than a day. We have another idea that's gathering support around this and we'd urge those interested in this to join.
Similarly, we have another idea based around the permission to approve or decline leave request and provide read-only access to Payroll reports that you can support, here.
Understanding the importance around being able to see history of events in payroll, you may have noticed we've rolled out payroll history to the employee record-level and most recently you can now see a history of user activity in the Organisation, Calendars, Pay Items, Superannuation & STP Settings tabs of the Payroll Settings.

Bills - Move the New Bill button to the top left, to match the Invoices screen
On the Bills page, the New Bill button has been moved top right. More distance to travel = more time wasted. Need to look harder to find it too because it isn't where it was and the New invoice button still is. No - the new colour doesn't help that much as I am colour blind. Could you please move the New bill button back to top left of the screen like the New invoice button ?
When I enter a bill where there is an outstanding credit, I go and Allocate credit. Great but after doing that the screen returns to the Bill - but there is no Add another bill link so I have to come out to the Bills page and go back in. Could you please put an Add another bill button in the left of the header as there is if I had just come to this screen from the Approve button when there is no outstanding credit ?
When I edit a bill I finish by clicking Save. As in the paragraph above after doing that the screen returns to the Bill - but there is no Add another bill link so I have to come out to the Bills page and go back in. Could you please put an Add another bill button in the left of the header as there is if I had just come to this screen from the Approve button on a new bill ?
Many thanks, Mike.

Tracking - Restrict categories and tracking combinations
Ability to restrict the 2nd category tracker to a 1st category item.
Eg - Category 1 is the property, Category 2 is the tenant.
When we have multiple properties in an entity it would be great to be able to restrict tenant category to only relate to the 1 property that the tenants are for. This would help to stop a mis-match of property/tenant.

Mileage/Tracking Report - Ability to see employee mileage within the tax year
We need the ability to see how many miles an employee has travelled within the tax year. This is so that we can follow HMRC guidelines in respect of the pence per mile that is paid to the employee. Currently the rules state that up to 10,00 miles can be reimbursed at 45p per mile and thereafter this rate is reduced to 25p per mile.
This could also include the ability to set a default rate to avoid any errors made by the employee and to then generate an alert once the employee exceeds 10,000 miles and automatically reduce the default rate to 25p per mile.

Fixed Asset (AU ) - Remove empty Fixed Asset Pool
I've accidentally created a Small Business Depreciation Pool in the Fixed Asset section of a client.
As far as I can tell there is no way to permanently remove or delete this, and it just hangs around forever?

Dashboard - Ability to change the columns from the standard two to three or four
Dashboard - Ability to change the columns from the standard two to three or four.
This would give me more flexibility to see all the data in one place without having to scroll down to see all our accounts.
33 votesHi all, we appreciate feedback we've received about improvements we could make to the Dashboard that'd better serve your needs. You may've heard that we have a new Homepage that'll replace the Dashboard and will be released to all customers over the next few months.
With updated technology the new Homepage is much more responsive and will adapt based on your device, screen size and zoom functions to show a maximum of 4 widgets side-by-side. 😊
I'll keep you looped in on when this is available to everyone, but in the meantime if you'd like to try it out jump into the demo company!

Short Term Cash Flow - Filters for invoice status
Being able to filter on the Short-Term Cash flow would be very helpful. For example, if I create an invoice but haven't sent it yet, it's included in the projected income, but if I can tell the report to only show invoices that have been "Sent" it would only include invoices that have actually been sent to the client.

Include dates on cheques under date to comply with CPA requirements.
Xero needs to include the field indicators on their printed cheques like all the other Canadian compliant software companies.
Right now Xero directs Canadians to have their printer include the field indicators on the preprinted stock, but this makes alignment very difficult and most printers won’t. Even the companies that they suggest to provide the stock do not include it.

Hubdoc - share and upload documents from device drives
Why can't you open a document , press share and the doucment filed into Hubdoc in the same way you can with Xero Files where want to push into Hubdoc initially?
Also you can seem to add PDF file types (that are not photos taken previously and stored in your phone gallery) with or without downloading the PDF document onto your device first - why is that?
Is Hubdoc a proper document storage facility?

Receivable Invoice Summary - Date range 'Any' option
Previously, in old "Customer Invoice Report" there was a feature under "Dates" where we could select "ANY" which allowed Invoices created outside of your selected date range to be included in your report.
This seems to be no longer available in the new "Receivable Invoice Report" and any invoices created outside of your selected date range (but paid within that date range) won't show up on the report.
You can expand your date range but this has potential to re-list paid invoices from previous reports.
Can "ANY' be added as an option to Dates as it was in previous version?5 votes -
Custom Report - Ability to Hide/Unhide Columns
Currently we create a budget for each tracking category (department).
I have created a custom report which includes the budget for each category. I then use the formula function to sum the budgets together.
I only want to see the formula column in the report outputted. (I realise that columns can be hidden when data is exported to Excel)
I understand that there is not a way to show a formula column without all the individual budget columns.
Enhancement suggestion: include a radio button for each column to hide/reveal that column in the report

Reports: Show net profit or loss on Trial Balance report
Showing profit of Loss on Trial Balance (at both Client XERO Blue and advisor) Reports
At present the trial balance report does not show profit or loss, can or will XERO recode the report in client reports(XERO Blue) and in the advisor templates. This is something I believe all accountants and bookkeepers will welcome the change, as the would improve workflow.
Please refer to trial balance from competitors software (has printed that way for over 30 years)29 votes -
Reporting - Accept 2 decimal places in Budget Manager
Modify the Budget Manager so that it accepts 2 decimal places and does not round to the nearest full dollar.
Rounding all figures means that the Net Profit amount is incorrect which means the budgets are incorrect.
46 votesThanks for your interest and input on this idea, everyone. Being upfront this isn't something we have planned at this time but we'll continue to monitor the votes and feedback coming through and will be sure to let you know if there's any change to this, here.

Cash coding - Filter and Search
Filter/Search in Cash coding screen.
