Foreign Currency - Ability to turn off
One day I added a foreign currency because I needed the rate for a single transaction, but now all of the detail reports show three foreign exchange columns checked all the time, when I don't need them and don't want them. There is no way to turn off foreign exchange organization wide, nor to get rid of the columns. I am aware that I can make custom reports for account transactions, but the fact is that I use right click to open the account detail in a new tab from an existing report such as a…

Payroll UK: Import annual leave from planday to xero
The ability to import annual leave from Planday to Xero so you are not creating it twice on both platforms.
1 voteHi Chris, thanks for your idea here. Understand you may have completed the process yourself by now, but incase you have other orgs you're looking to set up and for others that may be looking for the same - We've released new Switching Wizard in Payroll for the UK.
This'll make it easier to transition from your current payroll provider to Xero Payroll, reducing errors and saving you time.
As part of the experience, you'll be able to import a Full Payment Summary(FPS) from your current software provider to Xero Payroll. You can get more understanding of how this works on our website and through our short video.

Xero Me: Hide personal leave balance when requesting leave
In Xero we have the ability not to show the personal leave balance on payslips. But this is made redundant where the employee can apply for leave on the Xero Me app and see their personal leave balance there instead.
For consistency, there should be an option to not show the available personal leave balances when employees are applying for leave - either on the Xero Me app or if on the web browser.
8 votesHi Cassandra, sorry we've not responded here sooner. You should now find when a leave balance is hidden on payslips, it's also hidden in Xero Me 'Leave Balances'

Bills to pay view - Ability to customise which columns are shown
This is NOT an idea, more of feedback for the new layout in Purchases/Bill section.
The new layout is terrible!!
3 votesHi team, a while on since this idea was initially raised we have made more improvements to the bills list view. You'll find you can now choose which columns are shown in the table, as well as choose where in the table these sit.

Bills - Provide a 'Skip to Next' function when reviewing Bills to Pay
In the same way that we have 'Approve & View Next' for invoices in the draft and awaiting approval sections, it would be useful to have a 'Skip to Next' function in the event that you are missing information or unable to approve at that time. This would certainly save several clicks and make the process more fluid.
3 votesHi team! Our new quick view feature in bills allows you to simply view your bill and it's details without having to leave the list view.
Move from one bill to the next using the arrow options and once you've reviewed make bulk actions by selecting multiple bills and using the list bulk action options like Batch pay, Approve, Add planned date, Print or Void 🥳

Reporting - Option to add account numbers & zero balances to financial statements
Ability to have to have a check box for "Include Account Numbers" and "Include or Omit Zero balances".
Purpose: Because it demonstrates completeness to show that the balance actually is zero
212 votesHi everyone, as of today the ability to show nil(zero) balance accounts in reports is live to all users!
To confirm, there are 2 ways to turn this on. Either through a blanket selection in the Report preferences, or via a toggle on and off option within the 'More' menu of the following reports;
- Balance Sheet
- Profit & Loss (Income Statement)
- Statement of Cash Flows - Direct Method
- Trial Balance
- Cash Summary
- Movements in Equity
- Blank report
- And, Report templates
As we close out this idea, we want to say a big thank you to everyone that's shared their interest in this with us overtime.

Income and expenses by contact - Filter using tracking category
We run multiple branches out of one Xero ledger. We find the income and expenses by contact report very handy to track sales data, however it would be much more useful if we were able to filter by tracking catagory (for our instance we track branch locaiton).

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…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.

Purchases - Set default landing page for payable invoices
Business dropdown menu
‘Bills to pay’ link goes to ‘Purchases overview > All’, showing all Paid and Unpaid.
This should go to Purchases overview > Awaiting payment’? The way it is now doesn’t seem logical, when we’ve clearly selected ‘Bills to pay’ not ‘Purchases overview’ or ‘See all’Menu option to Invoices ‘Awaiting Payment’ going directly to all outstanding invoices?
4 votesHi Larina, we appreciate our customers have different preferences for the bills page they would like to default to and this option is available within the 3 dot menu on the Bills page.
From here you'll be able to set the Awaiting Payment screen as the default.
It's not possible to do this for the Invoices screen atm so I've slightly changed the title of your idea here to reflect that specifically. We'll continue to track the interest here and let you know if there's any progress.

Navigation bar - Ability to bookmark most used features
Have a ribbon/menu across the top of the screen with the ability to pin a “button” that links to your most frequently used windows - eg bills to pay drafts window , or the reconcile window of the most used bank feed, or a report you run daily
1 voteHi Kristen, touching back on your idea here there are many shortcuts that enable you to navigate to the features you use most. See all the shortcuts available from Xero Central. You'll also find for Bills to pay particularly we've added the ability to set a default view 😊

Invoicing - Stop capitalizing the address line for City
On the PDF invoices, Xero automatically CAPITALIZES the entire town/city name, even in my custom invoicing template. It looks unprofessional and I want it to go away. I've avoided this by typing all new addresses on the first line, but I have imported hundreds of contacts into Xero and I don't want to go in and change every single one of them.
5 votesHi all, in Xero City, State and Country fields appear in capital letters when using a standard invoice template. This is because the US Postal Service (USPS) recommends these fields are in all caps.
Currently you could use an advanced invoice template and replace the merge field <<ContactPostalAddress>> with some or all of the following merge fields to change the way this appears:
- ContactPostalAddressLines
- ContactPostalRegion
- ContactPostalCity
- ContactPostalCountry
- ContactPostalPostCode
- ContactPostalAttentionTo

Reporting - Option to include zero-balance accounts in the Trial Balance
The TB in Xero does not show lines that have a nil balance, however, you may need to drill down on a line that has a nil balance but may have have transactions (such as a control account). Could an option be added to the trial balance that would allow it to be displayed either with or without the nil balances?
33 votesHi community, we've just released the ability to show nil(zero) balance accounts in reports.
Along with the Trial Balance report, this selection is also available for the Balance Sheet, Profit & Loss (Income Statement), Statement of Cash Flows - Direct Method, Cash Summary, Movements in Equity, Blank report, and Report templates
You'll find you can turn this on as a toggle option from the More menu of the report itself, or there is a selection in Report preferences.
We appreciate you sharing your needs in this and joining in through Product Ideas.

Xero Me: Allow multiple timesheet entries in one day when using start and end times
Add the ability to Xero / Xero Me for multiple time sheet entries per day.
For staff who work across multiple sites having the ability to add multiple time entries per day and either select a client to associate those entries against, or add a note for each time sheet entry would be fantastic.
Ultimately you would allow up to 6 time entries per day.Example
Monday
Time Entry1= 8:00 - 11:30am (note= site 1)
Time Entry2= 12:00 - 3:30pm (note= site 2)
Time Entry3= 3:30pm - 5:00pm (note = site 3)Doing this would improve the functionality and uptake…
6 votesHey team, apologies we've not got back to you here sooner. Our product team have implemented a change so you can now enter the start and end times in a timesheet, which enables you to enter time spend in multiple locations.

Dashboard | Cash in & Out - Link to new bank account summary
Reports: Bank Summary Report
The recent shift to new reports has not considered the Bank Summary Report. It is an important report in the sense that it tracks movements and balances for all the banks.
Please consider creating the Bank Summary report in the new format.2 votesHi team, thanks for the idea here and apologies we've not rounded back on this sooner. We made an update so this widget now links to the new Bank Summary report 🙂

Giving Statements for Year End
It is crucial to be able to print or email statements to multiple or all contacts with received money transactions at once showing each received money transaction for the contact in a time period on individual/separate pages by contact. This is really needed functionality because any nonprofit entity needs to send giving/donation statements at year end. I have tried multiple reports and statements. I can create an Account Transactions report showing all the clients and the received money entries, but it doesn't allow me to separate contact on their own page. The functionality under Business and sending…
7 votesHi Justin, thanks for sharing your idea again, I understand the challenge of creating a statement for a contact who only have receive money transactions. We've reviewed your idea agree its something others have asked for, so now it's up to the community to get behind and support it. Make sure you share your idea with any colleagues that this could benefit so they can add their vote too!
Along with votes, other members can now comment to share additional detail about how your idea could improve their experience with Xero.

Dashboard - Show difference between total Invoices Awaiting Payment and Bills You Need to Pay
On the Dashboard can Awaiting Payment, Display Current Month and Future as Two Separate Lines. At first glance we want to see what is happening this month, for example are the Receivables greater than Payables this month. Currently the Totals include all future Receivables and Payables. This is difficult especially when Directors are viewing via Mobile, although it's still a problem via PC.

Director Declaration - Auto adjust terminology (single vs multi)
In the Director's Declaration, it would be great if the report could recognise if there is a single Director or multiple, and then update the wording accordingly. (eg "The Directors have determined" or "The Director has determined".)

Foreign currency - Change exchange rate behaviour
Re: Handling of Mutly-currency/translating foreign currency amounts into the functional currency
Multy currency is currently not fully supported in xero.
A foreign currency transaction should be recorded initially at the rate of exchange at the date of the transaction and then, at each subsequent balance sheet date, foreign currency monetary amounts should be reported using the closing rate.
This is true in xero only for Bank accounts, accounts receivables and payables set in foreign currency but not for other account.
As a result users are required to input periodical manual adjustments at each balance sheet date.We ask…

Financial Settings - Shorten financial year
Ability to shorten a financial year end on Xero without messing up reporting.
E.g. when a company's financial year end is shortened from 30 June to 31 December so there is a 6 month transition period needed.45 votesSorry we've not updated on this idea sooner.
We've now added the ability for you to create a short transition period (between 1 - 12 months long) when changing the Financial Year End date within your organisations Financial Settings.
To confirm the work in this space - Aligning with the UK basis period reforms we've made a change to Financial settings in Xero, so you can add start and end dates to different periods.
This change impacts multiple areas of Xero;
- Fixed assets will draw on this information, to prevent any loss of historic information when your year end changes. Everything will automatically be calculated for you based on the period start and end dates you set in Financial Settings.
- The same story will apply in Reporting. All historic reports will be protected. And you’ll have accurate comparison periods even across varied financial years.
- In Xero Tax, you’ll…

Multicurrency - Change behaviour of Unrealised Gains/Losses with Bank Accounts
Xero has a gap in handling Fx gains/losses.
It is great at both Realised and Unrealised on bills and invoices but it drops the ball on Cash at Bank. It treats it all as Unrealised, which is where the flaw is.You can have an empty currency bank account which has a residual functional currency balance and has movements on the TB every month due to revaluation. This is clearly nonsense.
I have also been told to ignore the exposure column on the Fx report as it is meaningless.For Fx gains/losses Cash is a document in exactly the same…
