mandate - Show mandate status and progress etc.
Show mandate status and progress: In Sage one of the Customer fields is their mandate status. You can see when the mandate was sent, whether it has been submitted, is being processed, is now active or has been cancelled. These are crucial for us. We are finding it very hard to get even a couple of mandates set up due to the way that first invoices are processed (on their invoice date rather than as soon after as practical). Then we have no way of knowing whether a mandate has been sent or…

Reports - showing receipts (credits), which matches bankings/receipts & can be filtered by date.
Report similar to Approved_sentand_paid which shows receipts (Payments & credit) for a specified week and not including previous part payments in the Payment and credits collum. The report should match our banking / receipts for that specific week including part payments.

Contacts - Include account number or email address in exports
We need to export donations from Xero to our CRM system. However, matching on Name is looking very difficult but we could add either the CRM ID to the Contact record as their Account Number, or their email. However, I can't find a way of exporting a csv containing the date, amount, and either email Account number. Can this be added?
9 votesHi everyone, as noted in my last update it's possible to export contacts and their data from your Xero organisation.
This will include Account Number, email - See our article here.
It sounds like some in this discussion may want the ability to include the Contact Account Number in the emails sent for invoices and we have a slightly separate request for this that you may like to vote on.

Invoice - Set the calendar to Sunday to Saturday
Set the calendar to Sunday to Saturday for everything, including Invoices. - Xero recently changed the Calendar for only the invoices. The week day now starts on Monday. I was informed this change was intentional and is currently not going to be changed back. Credit Notes, Recurring payments, quotes, bills, reports, literally everything else has the week starting on Sunday. This is very cumbersome for our business. My staff are constantly putting the wrong date on invoices. We operate at very high speeds because we have a lot of customers come in at a time, and a lot to do…
18 votesHi team, we appreciate all the feedback we've received on the invoice calendar here. I want to confirm that our team have released an update and you'll find the calendar now runs Sunday - Saturday consistently with other areas of Xero. Thank you again for feeding back with us, here.

Bills to pay - Filters to apply when editing bills (e.g Approve & view next)
In the new bills to pay draft screen even though I search for a particular supplier or filter alphabetically so I can find a certain supplier when I go into the first one and approve & view next instead of giving me the next one of that supplier (the filter I have on) it goes to the next date. I need to approve a lot of invoices and it is much quicker to do by supplier and be able to go straight to the next one. I could do this in the old bills to pay drafts but can't…
3 votesHi community, thanks for sharing your needs with us in product ideas here. As you may have seen we've released some new features in the bills space and you should find our new quick view of a bill solves for what you're after here.
With quick view you can easily filter for a supplier, then view each draft bill for that contact before bulk approving all bills at once. Simply click the downward arrow above the bill in the side view to move onto the next. 🥳

New Invoicing - Populate Tracking column from settings in contact's Sales Defaults
Hi, the new version of invoicing will increase my work load. at present when you open an invoice to approve it, it is easy to select the tracking categories, as it is linked to the client profile. in the new version it does not and you have to go through the list in a drop down!
Also we have an issue when we change the invoice date. for example and Invoice raised on the 5th Feb should be paid on the 6th March. If we change the invoice date from the 5th to the 4th, it does not…
3 votesThanks for your feedback on the idea here, with the way new invoicing works once you add a contact, any sales defaults saved for that contact in their record will be applied.
Adding a Qty or Price for a line will trigger Tracking defaults saved for them to be automatically applied. Similarly this applies to the any default saved for Due Date. If you have saved a due date that is driven by the invoice Issue date you should see this update if you change the Issue date on the invoice.
If this is not behaviour that you're experiencing please do raise a case with our team of specialists so we can take a closer look into this with you.

NZ GST return - Easy Printing of GST Return and Transactions
I would like to request the return of the nice simple professional looking GST Returns and Printouts as the new layout is unsuitable to be sent to Clients and printing out the GST Returns and details now appears spread over more pages.
5 votesThanks for your feedback here, everyone. We appreciate hearing what our customers need, and listening to feedback our team have made a change to the layout of the GST Transactions by tax rate view, so this is now similar to the previous report in a portrait layout 😊

AU Payroll - Create a report that shows when a salary change was actioned
Hi Guys, I'm not sure if this has been raised previously, but would like a payroll report that will detail employee salary changes and the date they changed.
4 votesHey team, if you'd like to see a report that shows changes made to payroll such as salary changes, you can use the Payroll History report.
It can be run for a specified date range and will show the date the changes were made, what the changes were, the employee affected and the user who made the changes.

NZ GST: Widen the GST Audit report
Widen the display of the GST Audit report. When viewing the GST return I also check the GST audit report. When viewing the GST audit report I cannot see the date on the left side without scrolling to the bottom and using the scroll bar to move the report from side to side. It will not show all the columns at once.
6 votesHi everyone, our new New Zealand GST experience is now available to all users.
As noted in my last update there is no longer a GST audit report. The transactions tab provides options to toggle different columns on or off.
The new experience also auto scales the page to fit information in one screen, so no more need to scroll. Thanks for all your feedback and contributing to the idea here.

AU Payroll - Include terminated employees in pay runs for backpay
When processing backpay for employees where they have a Termination Date currently involves either an Unscheduled Pay run for a period the employee was employed or undo the Termination date, and run a payrun, then Terminate again.
Both of these are very time consuming, particularly when there are some 40 employees over an 18 month period that need to be included who have a Termination date.
It would be useful to have a function in a payrun to "include terminated employees" which keeps all the previous data, but includes them for the backpay without having to manual up…3 votesHi everyone, it's currently possible to have terminated employees included in unscheduled pay runs, that are prior to their termination date.
If you're experiencing any issues with this, reach out to our specialists at Support who can help 1-1.

Subscription - Allow downgrade any time (effective at the end of the subscription period)
It is ridiculous that you are forced to set a calendar reminder to come back and downgrade a Xero Subscription in a month's time.
A client may need to increase their subscription purely to account for the crossover period of one staff member leaving and a new one starting and whilst we have no issue paying the additional for the one extra employee, to make it impossible to downgrade for a month after that upgrade is a pathetic cash grab by Xero.
Make it possible to downgrade the file immediately and have it take effect from the future date.7 votesWe appreciate the feedback about downgrading plans through this idea. While we've made sure to share this internally with our teams. To communicate transparently with our customers we'll no longer be accepting ideas about Xero pricing plans and plan structures on Xero Product ideas, as we cannot make commitments to ideas of this nature.

New invoicing - View Item Code and Tracking columns on saved invoice
Unless I'm missing something, I can't seem to see the Item Code or Tracking Code fields on a saved invoice? They are there in Edit mode, but not when viewing a saved invoice? We don't need to include these columns on the invoice sent to clients, but do need to be able to see them for internal use without having to go into edit mode. Until we can do this, we won't be able to switch to the new invoicing.
5 votesHi team, apologies we haven't updated this idea sooner. Our product team made a change to the approved grid view a fem months ago, where now you'll see Item code and Tracking as separate columns once the invoice is approved to make it easier to review your information. We appreciate your feedback here and sharing through product ideas.

Timesheets - New design has limited functionality
I have observed that the timesheets section in the payroll system has been updated. However, this update appears to have introduced several questionable design choices that hinder its functionality and efficiency.
Firstly, the employee list is not sorted alphabetically, which complicates the process of locating specific individuals. Secondly, the system no longer autofill's the default earnings rate, requiring unnecessary manual input. Thirdly, upon clicking the "Approve Timesheet" button, a redundant popup appears asking for confirmation of the approval, despite the action already being explicitly initiated. Lastly, when entering hours worked into a field, the system fails to…
18 votesHi everyone, while we appreciate your feedback about the updates to Timesheets with quite a few points raised in the one post we are going to move this to feedback. I want to assure you your feedback here has been shared with our product teams - however, if there are specifics that you'd like to see developed in the new timesheets we ask that you create ideas for each that we can then get a sense of the community in and keep you updated through - See the qualities of an idea on Xero Central. 🙏

Notes - Ability to bulk add to transactions
It would be incredibly helpful to be able to update multiple notes at once. For example, if I have a list of 300 invoices and a statement has been sent, I want to see that note on each invoice, so that anyone going into that account can see the last action. So for example, I want to add the note 'Statement sent today requesting payment by 19th April' to all 300 invoices, but I want to be able to select them all and add that note once, not 300 separate times.
It would be so helpful and would…

Xero mobile app - Take photos of receipts and auto fill data
Allow the Xero app to take photos of receipts at the time of purchase. To reduce the number of steps to get a photo of a receipt attached to a transaction.
Ideally then when reconciling credit card transactions, the receipts will already be in Xero and they would pop up as a suggestion, based on the date of the transaction with the date the photo was taken.
It would also be ideal if you could view the receipt whilst coding, like it does when you are viewing a draft bill to pay.
3 votesHi Lauren, this is possible with the Xero Expenses through the Xero Me app. When you enable receipt analysis, you can take a photo and Xero will pull the detail out of the receipt to enter into the fields of your expense - Find out more on this here.

Bills to Pay - Feature to save Supplier Statements
Description:
I would like to suggest the incorporation of a new functionality in Xero that allows users to save supplier statements within the system. This feature should not post any transactions to the chart of accounts but instead, save the supplier's name, balance, and date as a memo associated with the statement. This information should be viewable within the supplier's profile.Implementation:
The saved statement details should be accessible in a dedicated section of the supplier's profile, providing a historical record of statement balances on specific dates. Furthermore, these statement details could be utilized in the Aged Payables report,…11 votesHi team, as shared earlier - we made an update to Contacts a little earlier this year so you can now upload and save a Suppliers statement as a file directly to the contacts record in Xero.
It's also possible to add notes within the details when editing a contact which are visible on the right of the contacts record once saved.

Branding - Merge field for Credit Terms on Custom DOCX Statements
To allow for the statements in the docx set up to have a field for terms. The due date whilst it prints on the statement it is helpful to the client to see their terms
3 votesHi all, not having any response since my last update we're going to move this idea to delivered. If terms are generally the same you could use Advanced branding and add your payment terms to the docx template as static text so this would be included when sending statements to your customers with that branding applied.

Submit UK corporation tax return online as small business
We really need Xero to implement the capability for small businesses to submit their UK corporation tax return online, directly without an approved xero partner, BEFORE MARCH 2026 WHEN THE HMRC ONLINE SERVICE FOR SUBMITTING CORPORATION TAX RETURNS STOPS.
Our main justification to pay for Xero is it saves he cost of an accountant!
Currently HMRC lists Xero as an alternative software package for submitting tax returns after March 2026; but at the moment this is not an option in Xero unless you are a professional accountancy firm approved as a "Xero partner".
If Xero does not intend to make…2 votesHi 👋 your idea is being looked into by our Community team. We'll be in touch soon to update you once your idea has been reviewed.
