New invoicing - Searching items by start of field
New Invoicing - Type in Item - please change back to only searching start of field, as per old invoicing.
Now that typing in the Item field in the new invoicing brings up every item with that word or part word in anywhere, we either need to learn all the codes, or make sure our items all contain totally different words. It takes ages to find the item required.19 votes -
UK/AU Payroll - Option to select/deselect 'Other Previous Earnings' feature on payslips
Remove the feature of 'Other Previous Earnings', or an option of allowing us to choose whether to have this feature. Grouping all previous pay items into 'Other Previous Earnings' in the same financial year is confusing and our employees won't understand what it is for. Please get rid of it!

Fixed Assets - Delete wrongly created General Pool in Xero Blue
Looking for deleting wrongly created General Pool, which were created during the conversion of file to Xero Blue. Currently we can record an end date to the pool, but it doesn't stop the previous pools to stop appearing on the 'Run Depreciation' screen. No balances recorded, no movement at all.

Remittance Advice - View emails sent for batch payments
When looking at the notes of a batch payment, it says "remittance advice emails were sent to 16 suppliers" - but I can't see anywhere that will tell me which 16 suppliers & which email addresses they were sent to. It would be great if I could see that.

Xero Accounting App - Ability to sort quotes order
In app version, when we click omn Quotes then we see 2 options to choose- numer of quotes sent & number of quotes to invoice.
When we click on number of quotes to invoice then we see all the quotes converted to invoice. But they appear as increasing order means oldest quote on top, we should have option to change the order i.e newest quote on top.1 voteThanks for sending through your idea and highlighting what’s important to you.
We’ve taken a look, and now it’s over to the wider community to get involved. If others you work with would benefit from this too, feel free to share it so they can add their vote.

Bank Reconciliation - Suggest matches for total of multiple transactions for the same Contact
In the bank feed, recognise transactions that cover a supplier or customers total balance, or multiple bills/invoices paid together rather than only suggesting matches for 1 invoice/bill.

AU Payroll - Display name as standard across payslips/timesheets etc.
Currently the display name for payroll items doesn't extend to timesheets. So the employee sees the rate name. Really an employee should only see the display name and the rate name should be for/staff/admin/advisors. I would like to enter the default rate in the rate name as there is also no prompt in the employee file if you choose to use earnings rate to see what the rate is. You need to go back to payroll setting to check which is inefficient.

NZ GST - Zero rated GST for asset accounts
At the moment Zero Rated GST can only be applied to Revenue items on the Chart of Accounts. When we deal with a property sale between GST registsred parties, the sale is also zero rated for GST purposes. We need the option to apply the 0% GST rate to asset codes as well as revenue codes. At the moment, we have to do a manual workaround.

Xero Accounting app - Sales report table by month and year
I would like to be able to see sales totals on a simple table on the Xero app. I simply wish to see monthly sales totals as well as year totals per selected year. This helps me to get a quick snapshot of how my sales are increasing or decreasing, and also to view sales trends by month.
5 votesThanks for submitting your idea on Xero Product Idea's, Domenico. As you may have seen there is the Total Cash In and Out graph on the dashboard of the app. The dark blue bars show the total amount of cash that’s come into your bank account per month, and the light blue bars show the cash that’s gone out.
Appreciate there's no way to show this only based on invoices, or for a year view atm.
We'll monitor and track support your idea receives from the community.

Lock Dates - Option for an auto lock date every month
The ability to have a set lock date EACH month. For example, every month by the 5th the prior month is locked for users other than the advisers. Currently you can manually do this, IF you remember.
My issues is, if I do not remember the accounting clerk will go back multiple months creating entries and causing issues.

Purchase orders - Online view with option to convert to Quote
Purchase Orders - ability for the suppliers that you send the Purchase Order, to view the document online and have the option to import the Purchase Order to Quotes and Sales Invoices.
The Purchase order area of Xero feels a bit underdeveloped at the moment. However, one strong step would be to allow Purchase orders sent by Company A from their Xero account to be transferred to Company B's Xero Sales area at the click of a button (giving an option of Quote or direct to sales invoice).
This is already set up on the Sale side, where Company A sends an Sales invoice to Company B and Company B can add it to their draft bills directly. Creating a similar flow from Purchase Order to Sales Invoice/Quote would be a logical step.

2 votesHi there, we appreciate your suggestion. It's a thoughtful idea that touches on a key part of the procurement process. We understand that the current method of emailing PDFs and relying on suppliers to recreate the information on their side requires some manual work.
An online view of purchase orders, along with the ability for suppliers to convert those into a quote or invoice in Xero, would help make this a much smoother experience for everyone involved.
At the moment in Xero, purchase orders can be converted into bills, which you can then send to suppliers, and quotes can be converted into invoices to be sent to customers. However, there isn’t a way for suppliers to view a purchase order online and import it into their organisation as a Quote.
This idea is currently in the Gaining Support phase, so we’re keeping a close eye on feedback and interest from the community. We’ll continue to update this thread as things progress.

New Invoicing - Feedback
What I like that you added:
* Saving as draft!
* New Due Date drop-down selections (e.g. 14 days)What I do not like:
* No "add another invoice" option after save + print PDF, more clicks now
* When save + print PDF, now opens a new tab that needs closed, more clicks
* Cannot "copy" the invoice line "item" - I usually create many lines that I used to be able to copy & paste the "item", now more clicks
* Too much whitespace and font too large, I want to be able to see the data w/o having to scroll - while it is nice you allow turning off some fields (e.g. discount) please allow resizing fields, changing overall font size, or somehow make a "compact view"What I like that you added:

We recognise that some things will be different, so we encourage you to spend some time familiarising yourself with the new version. We also believe all small businesses and advisors around the world can benefit from Xero, which is why we’re deeply committed to accessibility. We’re confident that in time, new invoicing will become easy to use and that you’ll enjoy the benefits of us being able to provide much more value on that platform quicker.There's some improvements we have made to enhance workflow. For example when you create a new invoice the cursor will begin in the Contacts field, from here you can tab through all fields of your invoice to enter detail. We’ve also developed smart suggestions for due dates based on common dates people use most, or you can use Xero’s keyboard shortcuts to save time entering dates in Xero. If you have set a default due date in your invoice settings this will be applied when using new invoicing.
Not being focused on a single idea alone, we’re going to close this thread, but please rest assured that we are taking on board your valuable feedback and there are even a couple of existing ideas mentioned in your feedback that you could join to monitor progress on, such as being able to reduce the number of steps and clicks involved in new invoicing, New Invoicing - Add line number, Invoice | Less clicks for printing PDF and sending receipts, and Invoicing | History - Show detail of action made.
Our invoicing product team are very keen to keep improving new invoicing and encourage you to start a new idea if you’re unable to find an existing one that matches your needs.

Customer Statements - Option to remove links to invoices
Have the option to remove links to invoices on Customer Statements
152 votesHi everyone, thanks for your interests and sharing on the idea here. Being totally open, we don't have plans in the near term for any change that'd solve for the idea here. This may be something we consider down the line and will keep the idea here open to continue monitoring.
For the time being, we wanted to share a way you can remove links from the customer statement using a custom branding theme that you'd apply when sending a statement.
Once the new branding theme is created, you can select it when printing or sending the customer statement, and the invoice link will be removed.

Quote / Invoice - Select lines to copy to PO
When your quote involves different vendors, it would be nice to have the option to create POs with a click of a button for all the vendors but because you can't specify a vendor for each item then at least let us select the line items. Also very important, any additional information that was added to the description during the quote / invoice process should be carried over to the PO.

Reporting | Add multiple FY'S as common date selections
Report dates
On financial reports. Instead of last financial year of this financial year wouldn’t it be better to have the years as the selection ie 2024/25 2023/24 2022/23. it will be much quicker to select the year especially is going back further than the current year.3 votesThanks for sharing here, Kerri. Understand why you'd find this helpful and we'll start to get a sense from others that'd like to see this here, too.
I know it's a little different to what you're directly asking here, but perhaps comparison columns and saving as custom could help where you can run the report for multiple date ranges at once and view the comparison across each?

App Store - Cheaper crypto apps, or support crypto directly in Xero
Please investigate cheaper crypto aggregation services than the ones available currently in your apps section. Currently (Aug 2025) all the ones there are for enterprise, or businesses that trade a LOT in crypto. And the prices are ludicrous for those of us with small amounts of crypto assets.
Maybe get the IRD to fund your research and development of this kind of thing, because it will make proper tax reconciliation possible, and their investment will pay dividends.
As an example, ZenLedger (https://zenledger.io/) lets us integrate all this information. It still costs a yearly fee (per tax year) but its orders of magnitude less than any of the others in the current Xero apps list.
An even better solution would be to provide native support inside Xero for importing crypto transactions. Now, I expect there would come a point where its too complicated, and an external service may be needed. Thats fine, because I would expect by that point, there would be sufficient need for that service.
But MANY people would only need pretty limited numbers of transactions per year.
Downloading our transactions via our Public Address is done by any of these services. So it would be a trivial task for Xero to do that.

Xero App Store - Add a link to each app's website
When we go to the apps directory, and click on an app we are interested, they are usually associated with an external company. For instance, Crypto websites that consolidate our crypto transactions, then can be imported into Xero.
But when I go to the information pages about the apps, there is no link I can find to the actual website of the company. There are usually links to support, or social media.
Please go one step further and just put in the official website.
The reason for this is because sometimes we are researching what services actually connect with Xero so we can use that, rather than start using something that doesn't connect.

1 voteThanks for submitting your idea here, we appreciate you taking time to let us know how we could improve the App Store for you.
As you mentioned, the app listings currently have links to their social media pages, but not directly to their website.
For now, you might use these social media pages to get links to their websites. In the meantime, our team will check into this and your suggestion can now begin to build support with votes from other community members.

New invoicing - Option to show/hide fields and adjust their sizing.
New invoicing - option to remove existing columns and adjust their sizing.
You had this option before the latest release, why did you remove it...
I dont want to "Due Date" on the top, nor the "reference", nor the "online payment option"3 votesHi everyone, thanks so much for submitting and supporting this idea. It’s clear from your feedback that having greater control over invoice edit layout, like showing or hiding fields or adjusting the column size, would make a difference on your workflow.
We understand how important this kind of flexibility is, and we aim to support a wide range of businesses. Right now in Xero, there are some options available. You can choose to hide or show certain columns on the invoice layout, such as tracking, discount, and amount. But we know this doesn’t cover everything, and many of you are looking for more customisation.
This idea is currently in the Gaining Support stage, which means it’s open for feedback and votes. The more we hear from you, the better we can understand the need and shape future improvements. We’ll keep an eye on the discussion and share any updates right here.

Stripe - Pass full fee amount to customer
For volume based businesses, we lose money (30c per transaction) on the stripe fee we pay vs what we can pass onto the customer (because there's no option currently to just pass on the full fee, just a %). That % can't legally be higher than what we are charged, and we can't add the 30c fee to the % anywhere in settings. When we're processing 1,000 transactions per month, we lose $300 to fees. For a small business, this isn't justifiable. Most small businesses that have high volumes are low cost, so they rely on volume of sales to make profits.
Simply adding the 30c line item to invoices is also not an option as again, for a volume based business, it's too onerous and time consuming and we'd spend more in wages doing that than the amount recovered.
We need to able to pass on the full cost to the customer - please make this setting available or change the fee structure to exclude an additional cents component and just keep it to a flat %.
