Reporting - Monthly and Annually Recurring Payments to Suppliers
Please explore the possibility of generating a report that efficiently and clearly captures Recurring Payments made to any contact or supplier with either monthly or yearly frequency?
Currently, this is not achievable without significant manual effort to extract data from various reports in Xero. While I’m aware that the "Repeating Bill Payment" feature setup can also aid with producing a report of this nature, most clients do not use this setup, and the information isn't sufficient.
Payments have been processed in Xero through various methods, including bills, direct debits, and spend money transactions. The desired report should be able to extract all of this information, showing the contact, recurrence (within a specified date range), the amounts, and the payment method. Ideally, the report should also compare periods—separating data across multiple accounting periods if the date range spans more than one year.
I look forward to your response, Xero!

Invoices - Ability to set "Ask a question" replies to be sent to the organisation delegated email address
Currently, when a client clicks on "Ask a question" when viewing their invoice. This message is sent to the staff members personal email that created the contact in Xero rather than the delegated email address the organisation has selected in Email settings.
What if the staff member no longer works at the company or these emails are being missed as they are not sent to the organisations delegated email?

Invoices - Add invoice number when invoice is Approved
Recently found out that draft invoices are assigned a number once created, even if they are eventually not approved and deleted.
For accounting reasons in Spain, the numbering on all invoices presented has to be consecutive and the fact that draft invoices are assigned a number from the same sequence causes a problem. So basically if a draft invoice ends up being deleted, then when presenting the invoice list to the tax authorities, there is a number missing, which could cause a problem.
My suggestion would be that the sequence number is not assigned until the invoice has been approved and is ready to be sent to customer.Recently found out that draft invoices are assigned a number once created, even if they are eventually not approved and deleted.

Bills - Ability to Assign Project or Customer when importing
I have to create a biill with about 60 line items which contain a mix of duplicate and variable information. As there's no way to duplicate line items in bills, I employed a workaround by exporting Xero's inbuilt bills template file 'BillTemplate.csv'. In Excel I was then able to quickly and easily create 60 copies of the same line item, make the changes necessary and import the csv file into Xero which successfully created the bill containing the 60 line items - thus saving me hours of wasted time.
The only issue is that no provision has been made in the csv template file for assigning line items to a customer or project.
My request is for either:
a) ability to duplicate lines in bills (and invoices too would be beneficial) rather than just add empty lines.
and/or
b) ability to assign a line item to a customer or project in Xero's bill template csv file.

Reporting - Distinguish between 0.00 and nil balance accounts
On balance sheets or profit and loss reports. It would be amazing if there was a distinction between accounts that have nothing in them (e.g. -) and accounts that have a nil balance (e.g. 0). They currently have the same icon (-). Having different icons would make it easier to distinguish without having to click into the account.

UK Payroll - Activity Details and Summary report format
The new Payroll Activity and Summary Report is not as user friendly as the old one. It was much easier to read and find your employee name and net amount due on the older version. I also don't like how half an employees details can be on one page and the rest on the next page. I would like to revert to the old style, if possible?

Account transactions - Common date for 'last week'
An option to set the date range to "last week" from the date range pull down options in account transactions reports.
Being able to create custom account transactions reports set to "last week" would be invaluable for our weekly reporting, avoiding fiddly changes to the date range each week when pulling a number of reports, and preventing any dating errors.
It would be a great advantage.
Should be an easy to add that option to Xero, I would have thought.
And it is a common option (e.g. GoCardless has it.)

Purchase Orders - Improved text box functionality
When I add text to any of the boxes within a column in a purchase order, it moves the screen down because the box needs to expand to fit the text. This makes it really hard to copy-paste quickly. Please either remove the bug that makes the screen move down (boxes expanding) or add a "copy previous line" feature to eliminate this onerous task completely.

Reports - Option to hide "Tracking Transfers" from journals report

New invoicing - Auto tax rate to recognize non US address
Had to switch back to Classic INVOICE again... Because new INVOICE does not work...
Auto tax rate for us in the US can be a good feature if implemented with smarts... That seems to be a big IF... Some of us do business internationally. So not all our invoices are for US based customers.
Creating an invoice for a customer in Germany... !!!Unable!!! to complete the INVOICE because Auto tax rate insist I have to have a state for it to work???
IT IS IN GERMANY... No state required and being outside of the US Auto tax rate should recognize it is tax exempt??? Is this too difficult????
I see pop-up only 61 DAYS to retirement... You better start working faster....

Reporting - Show Invoice Approved Date in the Current Nominal transactions Report for Turnover reconciliation
Turnover per XERO and VAT declared Net Sales should be ideally Equal ,however often may not match and therefore need reconciling-which is important to understand the difference from both the YE accounts and HMRC point of view .
There should be a report in XERO which can facilitate this reconciliation rather than use spreadsheets -which is time consuming when the information is already existing in XERO
One of difference arising is -"The Date" invoice created and approved -are different and will report in different periods of the VAT return and Xero Sales Nominal Account
Example -Invoice created and left as Draft -dated 26/4/23 (note 1)
Approved on 20/9/23 (Note 2)Note 1 -The Nominal Account will show this sale dated 26/4/23 ie Qtr say April -June 23
Note 2 -The VAT entry as output will be declared in Qtr July -Sept 23This calculation gets complicated with lots of such entries in the year and suggest a report on sales within Xero to be able to pick up both Created and approved dates for each sales invoice and an option in the current Nominal codes transactions report.
so overall annual turnover per the year will be equal in this simple example but not when within each Qtr

Sales - Filter by Credit notes
Sales overview should include an option to view credit notes only (appreciate that this can be done by sorting on amount and looking for negatives) but would be nice if there was a one click option to show credit notes only
2 votesGood to know you're aware of how you can get a view of your credit notes for now. This isn't something we have direct plans for at this stage, but we'll track the interest from community here and share if there's any progress.

AU Payroll - Super Accruals Report to include TFN and Addresses
Recently did the super and needed to add the TFN of each and every individual employee manually into the file.
If it's a required field for the clearing house file then it should be included in the super accruals report - obviously.

Hubdoc - More control of menu
I just started using this program and the ability to close the left-hand menus is needed, at minimum the ability to adjust the column width.
When the "Folders" and "Docs" menus are both open constantly with no way of adjusting them, I lose almost 1/2 the screen.
The webpage is basically broken up into 4 columns, yet there is no way to adjust any of them for a better user experience or easy viewing of documents. Currently it is impossible to view all of the information needed for individual docs without moving the document around a bunch. It's a very basic feature to be missing.

UK payroll - Amend employee regular earnings if pay run hasn't been run
Please can you add a fix so that you can amend someone's regular earnings with the same start date if that pay-run hasn't yet been run.
You used to be able to do this, but recently you cant make a correction - instead you have to put the correct data on the next available date. This creates a second line on the payslip - which looks messy and clearly displays the fact you've made an error. Not something I'd choose to share.
1 voteHi Georgina, the salary line will only lock once it's been included in a pay run. Is it possible there is a pay run in draft? If so, you'd need to delete the draft pay run in order to edit the salary line.
If you're having any issues with this we'd recommend raising a case through Xero Central where our specialists can investigate this with you.

Date Fields - Hotkey shortcuts on all Forms
Similar to QB, in the date field, use hot keys to move quickly without all the clicks.
Use the "+" to go up one day at a time, the "-" key to go down one date at a time.
Use "w" to go to the beginning of the current WeeK and "k" to go to the end of the current week.
Use "m" to go to the beginning of the current MontH, and "h" to go to the end of the current month.
Use "y" to go to the beginning of the current YeaR, and use "r" to go to the end of the current year.Repeating the same key goes to the next date in that sequence.

You can see all of the different options in our Xero Central article. Is there a particular place you're wanting to use these shortcuts where they aren't currently applied?
