  1. There is an issue in payroll where you will get a rounding error due to other pay items such as Leave/Holiday.

    e.g. Salary £12,570 per year
    Paid in May the calculations are as follows:
    1685.692935=£956.41308 Rounded: £956.41
    8
    5.692935=£45.54348 Rounded: £45.54
    8*5.692935=£45.54348 Rounded: £45.54

    Total = £1047.50084 Rounded Total: £1047.49 instead of £1047.50

    This should be corrected somehow to use the correct number before rounding as the final calculation. The rounding can either be ignored from the line items, added to the first line item (the total pay) or added as a new line item specifically for the rounding…

  2. Xero calculates VAT on a line by line basis and rounds up at every instance. This leads to the VAT amount sometimes being more than a few pennies over the top of what it should be.

    I propose that Xero calculates VAT to 3 decimal places, which will mostly eliminate this over payment to the VAT man and overcharging our customers. Or it only calculates VAT at the end of the invoice.

  3. Xero subscription invoices added to Files
    When you email our Xero subscription invoice, please email it to our Files. (Or at least give that to us as an option.) We shouldn't have to forward our Xero invoice to our bookkeeper. The file should already be waiting for the bookkeeper within the software.

  4. Background: We are a chapter-based organization with almost 50 chapters. Each chapter is a 501(c)3 organization and uses Xero as its accounting software, meaning each one is treated as an individual organization in Xero.

    Every week, as the PM, I need to report on the health of each individual chapter. Currently, this process involves me manually switching into each organization's dashboard, checking if their bank is synced, identifying any unreconciled transactions, and recording the date of the oldest unreconciled transaction. This currently costs me ~1.5 hours per week.

    Purpose: A report that would allow users the ability to extract KPIs…

  5. When paying bills through Xero there should be some warning box to state this will not take money from your bank account. This will be recorded in Xero however you will need to make payments from your bank account.

  7. Add functions to Activity Statement report. It would be great to be able to collapse the GST categories in the Transactions by Tax Rate section of the report, much like grouping in MS Excel. Also being able to Sort the transactions, eg. by account and/or contact. This would be very useful for clients with a large number of transactions per GST category.

  8. It would streamline workflow if there was a feature that allowed us to store a client's credit card on file and when a single invoice is sent out to the client, the business can charge the card on file.

    In previous invoicing systems, I was able to "store" a client's credit card on file and then invoice and charge the credit card on file. This is an important feature for my business as it removes the burden off my clients for paying the invoice and reduces the amount of follow up on my end for collecting payment.

  9. Hi,
    The Profit and Loss function in the Accounting mobile app is great.
    It has a range of precanned Date options.

    Could you please add a Custom option to select start and end dates?

    A useful period for us to look at is start of current FY to end of last month. Custom date pickers would make that very useful.

    Thank you!

    Cheers

    Chris

    Great to hear that you like the Profit and Loss in the accounting app, Chris. We don't have any direct plans for this just atm but we'll get a better sense of the interest here and keep you updated if there's any change planned.

  10. It would be really useful if you could give a user permission to be able to reconcile and post bank transactions, but not see the bank balance.

    We thank you all for sharing in the idea here, and understand there are many permissions that our Xero customers would like to provide on a more incremental basis. As you'll all know access to bank accounts is available to users with Adviser, Standard or limited access to those with Read Only roles - You can see more of the breakdown in our article here

    With much of the teams resource drawn to work on the platform that'll continue to help us with the 'building on beautiful' experience for our customers we want to be upfront that there are no direct plans for altering the user permissions in this space just yet.

    User roles and individual permissions within a bank account will be in the limelight once much of the platform upgrades are complete, but this is some way off atm. We'll return to share when there's any…

  11. Activity Statement report - currently the activity statements need to be finalised in order and if not then the unfiled amounts option is turned off for good, with no way to change this. The current workaround is to delete all previous statements and then finalise them in order. This means we lose history, and particularly when the client is managing the BAS returns, we need that history to stay. Also there is no way to tell how far back into history the error is occuring. We need a manual override where we can switch on the unfiled amounts, so that…

  13. Hi guys,

    It would be great if we could get reminders for customers and suppliers birthdays, this is great for customer relations. Also a reminder for certain documents that might expire at a certain time.

  14. If you pay a vendor too much and they send you a refund for the overpayment that is recorded as a Receive Money transaction, then the amount to be reported on the 1099 should be the net (amount paid less the refund received), but since Receive Money transactions don't populate on the 1099 report, the amount is incorrect.

  15. Auto-reconciliation for transactions and invoices/bills - I appreciate that the manual reconciliation is to allow for oversight and management of transactions, but when you have several thousand transactions in a month, reconciling them all is very tedious, especially when 99% of them is just clicking "OK" after checking that the names/references match!

    Auto-reconciliation would be an amazing timesaver, even if it was just for transactions where the references or customer names onn payment and invoice/bill match. Please consider adding this!

  16. Hi,

    You can only create credit notes to Invoices or Bills if these aren't marked as paid on Xero, or by creating them as new items from contacts or using upload via Hubdoc.

    I think it would be beneficial to allow the creation of credit notes from bills or invoices that are already paid. Very often, there is a requirement for a credit note to be created when the bill/invoice is already paid. Adding the feature to allow creating credit notes based on the information already recorded on paid bills/invoices would save a lot of time in dealing with creating…

    Hi Wojciech, if an invoice or bill has already been paid there is no amount left outstanding for the invoice. It sounds like you'd like the ability to easily copy the detail of an invoice to a credit note? I've slightly updated the title of your idea here, for this. 

    If this doesn't quite reflect it'd be great to get more detail of scenarios you'd in which your business receives a credit note for a completely paid invoice or bill. 

  17. When depositing checks, I often search for the customer name or invoice number and deposit ONE CHECK AT A TIME. While this is less efficient than batch deposits, it works fine for our low volume of checks (most customers pay by CC or ACH now). That said, it would be more convenient to navigate to business/invoices/awaiting payment in one step than navigating to invoices and then clicking on the awaiting payment tab in a second step. IOW, you should show the sub-navigation within invoices so you can go to the exact tab you want.

  18. At the moment I cannot email end of year CIS statements through Xero to contractors like I can for monthly CIS statements.

    It would be very helpful to have this facility as I have to download PDF for EACH contractor (which can be very time consuming) and email individually at year end.

    This is a requirement as a CIS main contractor, so should be automated and easier for us to do this. Thanks

  19. At the time of creating ABA file with 10 bills and one supplier bank account has an error (eg extra 000 in front of the account number), XERO still allows to create the ABA file however removes the bill without a notification.

    Let's say you do not take time to check the batch payment PDF file with ABA data file, you do not know that bill is removed.

    If XERO does not allow to create the ABA file OR notify that bill is removed from ABA file will solve the issue.

  20. Branding Themes (in Invoice Settings) that are templates for Invoices, Statements, Purchase Orders, Quotes, Remittances, you name it, can only currently be 'deleted' when no longer required (ie, if a staff member resigns). BUT, individual staff themes have generally been attached to a transaction and once that 'theme' is deleted, you lose the history/audit capability. Being able to ARCHIVE instead will maintain the integrity of all the 'theme' template data it was use for.
