Xero Me - Payroll Authorisers to NOT include advisers
Please adjust the Leave Authorisers in Xero Me to be the employees in the business with Payroll Admin &/or the Authority to Approve Leave.
Currently all user with PAyroll Admin are available for selection - which includes ALL advisors.
As an accountant - we are having to revoke our access to a client's payroll to ensure that the staff in the client's business cannot select the accountant's staff members to approve their leave.17 votes -

Purchase orders - Ability to lock/stop editing once billed
Purchase orders should not be able to be edited after they have been billed (even part billed). It defeats the purpose of a purchase order.
We want staff to be able to issue purchase orders. Invoices are approved on those matching purchase orders. The same staff shouldn't be able to edit the original PO if it has been billed as then it doesn't match the invoice that's been paid/being paid.4 votes -
Sales invoice - Export Contact account number
Hi,
I have seen several posts about the Account Number not being searchable/usable within the system or via exports. Contacts' names can vary easily from the different systems used by a company and even between departments: ABCco , ABC Company Ltd, ABC Ltd... - the account number can solve these format issues.
In my case i need to export invoices in csv to be then imported in another system, also the invoice standard template has this field (to be ticked or not) it does not get exported which is rather peculiar; that obliges our finance to maintain a mapping file in excel and run a formula which is far from ideal.
Will this get solved in the near future?Hi,

If so we don't have any direct plans for developing this at this stage. I'll change the title of your idea here slightly and we can get a sense of the interest from the community of this, here.

Reporting - Include invoices due today as Current in the Aged Receivables, not Overdue
In the aged receivable reports (summary and detail) Xero currently assigns any invoice that is due today to the "< 1 Month" column. But an invoice that is due today isn't yet overdue, so it should still be in the "Current" column.

Reports - Group account transactions report by bank account

Xero Files - Retain transaction attachments when removing files
When delete a file, do not automatically delete it from the linked transaction.
I have had a client delete many of their files from the file library, as she wanted to 'clean it up'. This has in turn deleted them from all the bills/spend money transactions etc and we now have lost access to all the source documents and will need to reenter them.
Even a warning that this would happen, would be better than just wiping everything.

Contacts - Search description across customer activity for products sold
Would it be possible to have the ability to search on a customers account for individual products that have been previously sold to them? We have customers that purchase various products from us and sometimes it will be months between each purchase. I have to open every invoice to see if the item is on there. Even if there was an update on the Products & Services page to list the products sold to each customer, I think it would help.
7 votesCurrently there are a couple of options for some here such as using Smart Lists to run a search to view all customers that have bought a certain item within a period.
Alternatively, you can run Inventory Item Details or Receivable Invoice Details reports could be useful where you can filter by a specific contact, item and/or description to understand what items and quantities of those items that have been bought by a contact with the in the timeframe of the report.
However if you'd like to see this option direct within the contact record, add your support to the idea here and we'll get a better sense of overall interest. 🙂

Assurance Dashboard - Add Reporting Functionality
The assurance dashboard has been around for a while and it's great to have a number of checks accessible in the same place. However, there doesn't appear to have been much development in this area i.e. we are still not able to export out reports from the Assurance Dashboard.
A client reached out today looking for an easy to run report showing bank account number changes. This is an important item to check on for businesses, particularly entities that have bank accounts loaded into Xero by multiple people, use batch payments etc. Accessing this information through the assurance dashboard is clunky, it shows that bank account numbers have been edited but takes a few clicks to get into the detail as to what was edited. I suggested the client use the 'history and notes' functionality, selecting contact as the item and searching for the keywords 'bank account number changed'. This pulled the detail on the bank account numbers changed ie. bank acct 03-1750 changed to 06-9250 (screenshot attached) but doesn't show the contact name, so further clicks are required to obtain this detail.
Recommendations:
1. Create reports for the assurance dashboard, particularly a standalone 'bank accounts that have been changed' report
2. Both the Assurance Dashboard and the History and Notes Areas do not allow data to be exported, in either pdf or excel. It would be great if this functionality could be added, perhaps as an interim measure until reporting is able to be developed under these areas.
3. Further development in both the Assurance Dashboard and History and Notes areas, to make these easier to use and to pull detailed data, without having to click through layers of summary dataThanks

12 votesHi everyone, appreciate the feedback on my last question. I've slightly amended the title of this idea. As a bit of an update from when I last posted we have actually made an update in History & Notes as I know some of you were interested in - You can now Export to PDF or Excel from this screen and you'll find there are filter options to help you zone into the items you're most interested in looking at.

Quotes - Add lead time to items
When quoting items, customers need to know when the quoted items would be available.
It could be that the item is available ex stock or that there is a lead time to the item of days, weeks or months.
This is a common occurrence in the industrial sector.
Each item on the quote could have a different lead time, whether it is an item or service that is quoted.
The information is important to the customer for operational, as well as cashflow purposes. M
Would be great if a feature could be added for each line item on the quote, or even some fields that the user can define in the template settings.
Thank you

Account Transactions report - Move selected date range a period forward or back
When in account transactions (or any report where you can select a date range) have a button to move that date range one month forwards or one month back.
For example if you have the date range selected as 01.08.2022-31.08.2022 have a backwards button that would change this automatically to 01.07.2022- 31.07.2022 or a forwards button that would change this to 01.09.2022-30.09.2022 without having to go in and manually change the date to every month.
This would be very helpful when doing detailed reconciliations on a monthly basis so you can move between the months much quicker. I know you can a P&L for a month and compare it to previous months but you cannot see the detail like you can in account transactions.

22 votesHi everyone, we appreciate interest in a setting within the Account transactions report that would allow you to move forward a period or back a period from what's currently set.
In openness, this isn't something we have any plans for developing in the near term but we will continue to track the community interest of here.
While not exactly what's being asked in this idea I did want to highlight the Common date selections that are available within the report atm with the ability to easily select 'This month' or 'Last month'.
If there is any news of improvements for dates that'd accommodate what you're after here, we'll update you all.

Xero Expenses: Automatic receipt scan in web app
Add the ability to extract data from scanned receipts in the Xero Expense web app.
At the moment, both the mobile app and HubDoc can automatically scan receipts and extract data (date, amount, payee, etc). This doesn't work in the web app and Hubdoc cannot send documents to the Expense app.
We use a document scanner to scan multiple reciepts at a time and then batch upload to our expense keeping app (Zoho Expense). Drag and drop multiple receipts into Zoho Expense and the software will automatically extract the data from multiple reciepts at a time. This is more user friendly and faster than taking photos one at a time on a mobile app, or uploading them on the Xero Expense web app where we have to manually extract the data.

Xero expenses - Ability to export submitted expenses
Currently expense reports are not fit for purpose. You can't even order non-approved expenses by date or export them.
You need to be able to order unapproved expenses by date and by project/customer.
You need to be able to add description and project/customer information into the expense claims report.
Xero is **** at expense management frankly and with a few minor changes could be so much better. I should get a refund on my subscription for the wasted time.
11 votesSorry to hear your're not satisfied with Xero Expenses, Jeremy. Appreciate there are a few things that you've noted that you feel could enhance your experience when using expenses.
We do try to keep one idea per thread to make it simple for community to understand what they're adding their support and to help share this back with our product teams. I've adjusted the title of your idea here to reflect exporting expenses. We have an idea for changing the sort order here, and you're welcome to start new ideas for any other points you've shared too.

Sales Overview - View Outstanding invoice amount not Total invoice amount
Prior to the last update the upstanding invoices on the sales dashboard used to show amount outstanding. After the update it shows the total of the invoice. This is misleading as it is not showing the actual posts sing amounts.
I run a layby system in my shop and this new update although small is actually inconvenient as I now have to click into each invoice (many of my customers have various laybys ar one time) to see the actual outstanding amount vs total of the invoice.
Don’t suppose you could change it back??5 votes -
Invoice - Add billable expense hyperlink invoice to bill
I can create a Purchase Order, and from that I can mark it as billed and it creates a bill record for this purchase, putting the PO number into the Reference field of the Bill. The Bill also has a hyperlink to jump to the Purchase Order.
Within the Bill, I can assign the expense to a customer, which is fine.
When I create the customer Invoice, I have the option to add billable expenses, which is fine, and it marks the line as a billable expense, but there is no hyperlink to jump from the Invoice to the Bill.
Having created the Invoice, when I go back to the Bill, the chargeable expense line is marked as invoiced to "Customer Name" followed by a hyperlink to open the Invoice which is perfect!So in summary:
There is a hyperlink on the PO to jump to the Bill - Perfect
There is a hyperlink on the Bill to jump to the Invoice - Perfect
There is a hyperlink on the Bill to jump to the PO - Perfect
There is NO hyperlink on the Invoice to jump to the Bill - This is the missing link and would be very useful!!Adding this hyperlink would allow you to look up a customer invoice and very quickly track back any items to the purchase Bill and Purchase Order, something that is very important in the case of a warranty claim on a failed item!
Where the line on the invoice is marked "Billable Expense" could this not simply include a hyperlink to jump to the Bill?
(Out of interest, this is also one thing that Quickbooks can do that Xero cannot!)I can create a Purchase Order, and from that I can mark it as billed and it creates a bill record for this purchase, putting the PO number into the Reference field of the Bill. The Bill also has a hyperlink to jump to the Purchase Order.
Within the Bill, I can assign the expense to a customer, which is fine.
