Sales Invoice - Include files attached to an invoice when sending
Ability or setting to default include files attached to an invoice when sending from Xero
Purpose | Steps are currently involved to include files that are on an invoice when sending the invoice to a customer, an option like this would ease the process of including files that a customer needs to have access to and see when they received their invoice
303 votesThanks so much for sharing your feedback on this idea, community. We appreciate that having to manually select attachments on every invoice can feel a little fiddly. We get that you want a smoother workflow, that saves you time.
As noted by others in the idea, one option for now would be to add standard files, like your terms and conditions, directly to your invoice template. That way, they'll be included automatically when you send out your invoices.
To confirm how this functionality currently works - this is based on the user and driven by the last invoice that was sent. Where you have files attached, and you had selected to include files as an attachment when emailing the invoice, the next invoice you send with file attachments should have this selected by default.
A caveat to this is when you are working in incognito mode, or refresh your browser…

Xero Mobile - Bank Reconcilation: Notify when more than one potential match
Mobile/ipad bank reconciliation
Request to show in the suggested green match it is 1 of many if more than 1 matching invoice (as it does in desktop)
Else payments can be matched to incorrect same value invoices - what a headache to fix later..
AND
… find and match can only search by name or invoice number -
Please add to search by invoice amount (as this will help with when there are multiples to choose the correct one)
Thank you

UK Payroll - Improving User Experience for Closing Payroll Schemes
When closing a UK PAYE scheme in Xero Payroll, I struggled to locate the option to end a PAYE Scheme within the system but found guidance in Xero help resources.
I suggest moving the "scheme cease date" box to the "HMRC" Xero Payroll Settings tab for better visibility and less confusion.
Your step-by-step explanation was helpful, but some adjustments could enhance user experience.2 votes -
AU Payroll - Merge duplicate employees
Employee - Merge Function
I cannot believe that there is no merge function for duplicated employees. Most payroll systems have this function. The error occurred between integration with time and attendance software and Xero.

Subscription - Make billing clearer, including an itemised breakdown
Xero billing: Please make the packages pricing clearer on the monthly invoices.
i.e. please add the package elements breakdown. It doesn't have to be a separate line item, it could even just be added to the text description, but showing one price, as per the invoices from xero, does not explicity explain that there is a breakdown for items mentioned. Seeing this clarity on the monthly invoices is very helpful for ensuring transparency from xero to its customers. Also, months - or years - down the line it is hard to remember what the package elements cost unless so…7 votes -
Branding - Links to Invoices from custom DOCX Statements
Link to Invoices on Custom Statements
Xero recently added a link to Invoices on the Standard Statement. Thank you! However, this is only helpful if you're using the Standard statement. We would like to be able to add the Invoice link on Custom statements as well.

Bills - Record delivery notes for goods received, and attach to bills
We are a retail business. 15 companies and 65 shops across Australia. We currently have 285 different suppliers from whom we buy multiple items without creating purchase order as we order them on phone or online portal. We have Xero just to maintain supplier payments only.
Now, many suppliers send us periodic invoices means one invoice for multiple deliveries.
therefore, if we can enter delivery dockets header data only in bills to pay section just for records purpose we can track deliveries and assign them to Invoice once it arrives just like credit notes.
So we would know that we…20 votes -
Gocardless - Subscription template integration for reoccurring payments
Allow us to select 'reoccurring payment' in a repeating invoice for Gocardless in Xero.
When Xero generates a repeating invoice that is setup for auto collection from Gocardless, it is classed as a new payment each time and sends the Gocardless customer an email everytime.
In Gocardless when subscriptions were done through its own systems, they were classed as reoccurring payments and therefore as per BACS rules, the customer does not need to be informed everytime payment is taken.
We have over 400 monthly payments and growing, we can't keep emailing customers everytime we take their approved monthly…

Hubdoc - Set rules when importing bills
The way that you can preset (and save) coding in spend money bank rules in Xero between "Fixed items" and "remainder items", it would be extremely useful to be able to do this with bills that are uploaded to Hubdoc.
You would then also be able to save the multiline configuration in Hubdoc so that when the bill autosyncs with Xero it has the desired split between fixed and remainder items.
Please see attached PDF. An example of this is where you have phone bill that has fixed business and personal items. The remainder of personal tolls, which differ in…

GST | Increase backdating of GST returns
Why are we limited to backdating GST Returns in Blue Xero just 12 months.
It's crazy to limit the backdating of GST Returns to 12 months for Advisors. In an ideal world our clients are well behaved and we only need to deal with recent GST Returns. But we often get situations where we need to backdate GST Returns beyond 12 months: ie A client comes to us who has been trading for 2 or more years and not filed any Tax or GST returns - how do we deal with that? Or if we are doing a migration from…
34 votesHi everyone, with Xero's new GST returns can now be created back in time with no limit.
The one thing to note here is that returns do need to finalised and filed in order of the period of the return.

Inventory - First-In-First-Out (FIFO) option in Tracked Inventory
Offer First-In-First-Out (FIFO) accounting within Tracked Inventory as an option.
Purpose: Established US Companies tend to use FIFO for inventory valuation, so Xero would widen its scope of clients by offering the option. Plus, the option adoption would make reporting of its current US clients so much more straightforward.

Timesheet synchronisation with Tradify
Automatic transfer (synchronisation) of timesheets from Tradify to Xero. Settings to chose which timesheet category (Tradify: billable vs non-billable) is transferred to which earnings rate on Xero. Prompt in Xero's payroll feature to check the synchronised data before submitting the pay.

Emails to BIlls - Auto capture the bill as tax exclusive
You can set your company preference to tax exclusive or tax inclusive, but the Xero email bills to Xero function does not follow the company settings and always puts to tax inclusive. Can this be as per the company settings? Eg we would like it to always be tax exclusive.
0 votesThanks Dominique, for submitting your idea!
We've reviewed your idea, and it's now open for the community to support.
Other Xero users can now vote for your idea and add comments to share how it could enhance their own Xero experience.

Login - Don't Log Me Out/Extend Log Out Time (more than 60 minutes)
Develop the feature where Xero doesn't log user out time is extended for more than 60 minutes when it’s idle.
Purpose: Because having to log in again can disrupt users' workflow, which some users had to be interrupted as they’re also taking care of their business at the same time.
1,066 votesHi everyone, we appreciate the interest surrounding this idea, however we want to be open that we're unable to extend our log-out time past 60 minutes. Xero hold a lot of sensitive information including bank data and we're required to be as secure as online banking.
Any session information running on a web browser can potentially be stolen. If the session does not time out. You then have an infinitely long vulnerability window to session hijacking. Our best option is to keep a tight expiration window on the session cookie, and regenerate them frequently. Even setting a long timeout doesn't help with this - too long a timeout will greatly increase the risk of invasion or potentially jeopardise your personal data and the safety and integrity of the Xero application itself. This is why we maintain control of this.
If we detect there's been no activity on a page (e.g… -
Invoicing - Approve and send invoices when customer is over their credit limit
I would like to request the Xero add the feature to be able to approve and send customer invoices even when they have reached there credit limit in the new invoicing. Currently this feature is available in the classic invoicing of Xero. Xero are forcing everyone to move to the new invoicing from September 2024.
We use an external software for our customer invoicing and then import these into xero the following day after the sale has occurred and email the invoices to the customer. Moving to new invoicing currently means that for any customer that is over…2 votesHi Afaik, as part of setting a credit limit there is an option to "Block new invoices when credit limit is reached" if you'd still like to be able to send invoices once their limit is reached you'll just want to edit the Contacts record to deselect this option.

Organisation Settings - Allow seperate branch codes for STP and TPAR
Xero provides for only one ATO Branch code to be recorded for an organisation in Settings / Organisation details. Also, Xero does not require a branch code to be recorded for Single Touch Payroll (STP) which would be resulting in a number of cases where the ATO is contacting clients and practitioners regarding incorrect branch codes for STP and requiring correction of STP filings which is time consuming and complex.
Some businesses have different branch codes for different ATO reporting obligations. For example, a business may have a branch number of 001 for Single Touch Payroll but 003 for Taxable…

Invoicing - Ability to turn off auto suggestions
What happend -
I imported invoices with an invalid account number. When I went to review the imported invoices in draft, the new invoicing AI technology selected suggested account codes for me, almost to fast for me to notice the account code was blankWhy this is important -
The "review draft invoices after import" step is critical in getting it right - I should be able to review exactly what I imported to see where the mistakes are. I can see this being an issue with integrations where invoices are imported via the APIWhat Xero can…

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 -
AU Payroll - Calculate future leave balances for employees
For permanent employees, all XERO business customers should be able to calculate their future leave balances. This will allow a business owner to know if they can approve the leave or not, or what conversation to have with a team member.
I hope this idea is backed and implemented.
185 votesHi community, thanks for all your discussion and votes on this idea. We can see the appetite in being able to project future leave balances in AU Payroll. We understand that you're looking for an easier way to see an employee's accrued leave for a future date, which would make planning for things like company shutdowns and approving leave requests simpler.
Our product team has taken a look at this suggestion, however building this functionality isn't on our foreseeable roadmap. For that reason, we'll be changing the status of this idea to ‘Not in Pipeline’. The idea will remain open for votes, so we can continue to gauge interest when we next review our priorities for payroll.
As some have shared - exporting and combining reports outside of Xero is one way to get the information you need, although we understand its not the solution you'd like here.
We really…
