New invoicing - Increase size of item code display
The item code on the New invoicing shows much smaller that it was on the Classic Invoicing. Example attached shows how much harder it is to read. Can this be enlarged?

Bank Reconciliation - Check box for 'Pay by check'
Right now, checks must be written by going to the top of the page, choosing "Spend Money," choosing the bank account, and then checking the "Pay By Check" box on the page. I regularly enter transactions right on the back account page through the "Spend Money" and "Receive Money" button. It would be great if the "Spend Money" area on the account page could just include the "Pay By Check" box so we could avoid the extra steps.

UK payroll - Back date directorship start date
Xero should deal with back dating a directorship
As an accountants it is not unusual to only have a touch point around the year end and the client prepares the payroll. And the addition of new directors can be missed by the staff preparing the payroll.
No HMRC guidance is that you can adjust in the next month if the directorship is in the same payroll year. Xero does not work in this scenario. You need to revert each pay run back to the start if the directorship and re run and submit and if there is a weekly pay run this is a significant job.Xero should deal with back dating a directorship

New Invoicing - Move the "add last items" option
Move the "add last items" in the invoicing screen. Half the time the Billable items button comes up first in its place, but then moves to a lower point on the screen. The problem is if you click on it before it moves to the lower point on screen or just as it does, you end up with the last invoiced items on the invoice that you don't want.

Logout now option on the timeout screen
When the screen locks it would be helpful to have the option just to logout. Currently if you have timed out but finished working on Xero you actually have to login just to be able to log out which is a waste of time.
6 votesHi 👋 your idea is being looked into by our Community team. We will be in touch soon to update you once your idea has been reviewed.

Tracked Inventory - Add Sales invoice number of COGS journal
When COGS posts via tracked stock on a sales invoice, record the sales invoice number the COGS value relates to in the nominal ledger. There is already a field for this, but Xero does not populate it.

Invoicing - Undo/revert to previous version of an invoice
Create an undo or revert option for edits made to invoices. We can already see the history of changes made to an invoice, so why can't there be a option to undo or revert to a previous revision of the invoice?

Contacts - Show Contact Details on Customer Activity Page
I would like to be able to see the "Contact Details" as a little box on the left side of the Customer Activity Page. See my example attached.
I use the 'contact details: notes' section to add notes about some of our jobs, because the History/Notes section is useless. I would like to see the ability to move the customer tabs around and display what we want to see on the activity page.
Not every single one of my customers has an additional note, so I don't always remember to click over and double check it. I want to be able to see those notes right beside all of their invoices.

3 votesThanks for taking the time to share this suggestion Justine.
I can certainly see how having those specific notes visible right alongside the transaction feed would improve efficiency and make sure key information isn't missed.
While this isn't in our immediate plans to make changes in this area, this idea is open for support from other community members, and we'll keep a close eye on the interest here.
You may also wish to vote on and share your thoughts on some similar ideas regarding how notes are viewed in Contacts:

Reporting: Excel Export - Adjust default row height on exported reports
When exporting reports to Excel they are coming in with very narrow row heights. By Default Excel will create a row height 4 points larger than the font. Eg: default font is 11 points and row height is 15 points. If I increase the point size, the row height increases.
My exported reports have the general data at 9 points but the row height is at 11 points - and I'm constantly having to modify my spreadsheets.
It appears that Xero believes that a 2 point difference between font size and row height gives enough white space to make the spreadsheets easy to read.
Can we please have at least 4 points difference between font and row height on exported reports.

Demo Company - Clear ALL, don't reset, optional data reload and cloning
This idea has been raised again and again but XERO isn't listening!!!
The demo company is a great idea, but it makes no sense to automatically reload all the "duff" data every 30 days.
It's VERY simple to achieve a very useful and flexible feature, by....
1) Be able to clear all the data in the Demo Company
2) Make the 30 day reload of useless data optional
3) Enable cloning of an existing organisationWe need to be able to test imports, features etc. and be able to return the "demo company" to EMPTY and if required to restore the standard demo company data set or Cloning an existing organisation.

Xero Support - Change how 24/7 support is advertised
Xero advertises 24/7 support. My idea is that this representation is amended to reflect what support is actually offered.
Xero state that you can "Contact Xero for free and unlimited 24/7 customer support". To most people, the meaning of this representation is that you can communicate in real time with someone from Xero who can help. This is not the case.
The advertising claim should reflect that, while you can request support at any time, you will only get that support when Xero staff have the time to provide it, based on their triage system.
If you believe I'm being too literal, consider this statement "Your doctor is available 24/7 to provide you with support/medical advice". Do you take this to mean that you can contact your doctor at any time to make an appointment? Or that you can get hold of them (that is, talk to them) at any time?

AU Payroll - Filter Leave Balance report by employment status
Has support considered the option to filter the leave balance report by employment status? When generating this report all employees are listed or only an individual employee. Why would we need the current balance of leave for terminated employees? I have some employees who have returned, so both are listed but I don't know which is active until I run the report on each.

Contact record: suppliers and customers list by page
On the Suppliers list, if you want to get to the next page you need to scroll down to the bottom of that page. Could there be a next page toggle at the top of the page as well as the bottom. This also is applicable to Customers.

Add Country Bank to supported banks.

Reports - Re-order columns and rows using cut & paste
Instead of dragging rows and columns (which takes forever when you have long reports), can you implement a cut and paste instead?

Reports | Budget Variance - Add line highlight
As someone who is colour blind, I find the Budget Variance Arrows are similar / same colour which makes viewing budget variance at a glance a challenge.
It would be great to have an option to have lines highlighted a colour if above/below budget instead. Even better if this colour option was customisable.

AU Payroll - Copying previous wages across to current week shortcut
It would be great if there was an option (tick the box) to copy last week's wages for the current week for payroll. I have casual staff who sometimes have the same hours as the previous week's so not having to replicate this would be great and the quickest way would be to have a tick the box which can copy it across to the current payroll

UK Payroll - Salaried employees who work changing shifts each week
In service industries like hospitality salaried employees will work a different set of shifts each week across 7 days. Currently I have to set up a working pattern and if they phone in sick on a Saturday for example if that day isnt set as their working day (i.e we set them up as Mon-Fri for ease) we have to record the sick day on the Monday to ensure it is deducted. But in these industries the working days are different each week and they dont work on a set pattern. Need the ability to set that the employee works a varying working pattern, and when a sick day or absence is recorded it is marked as "on a work day" or something

Business Activity Statement | GST Audit report - Add transactions source field
I would like the GST AUDIT REPORT to be permanently updated, so that the transaction SOURCE FIELD would be included in the report. Otherwise the report should be customisable to include this and many other fields / options, so any of us professionals and internal accountants can extract what we need to review client / business BAS data easier, and lodge the BAS's quicker. There are MANY ideas for the GST AUDIT report to be customisable and several are also relevant to me and my needs, but I couldn't find a request for this one and it is such an easy amendment and a basic need, for BAS quality control.
