Reporting - Ability to create own report code structure
what about the possibility of practices creating their own report code structure? with infinite report codes capable of being added? to accommodate flexible reporting structures?
It is truly difficult to automate reporting where a practice does not control the chart structure. this is because clients often create new chart codes because their particular expense doesnt neatly fit the chart options available...so a new expense/revenue/etc account is added and then the report pack grows in size (with similar account types that really should be grouped for reporting) to the point where it is unusable...unless the practice manually maps into a "group" ongoing

201 votesHi everyone, thanks for your feedback here. It’s great to see so much engagement on this idea, and we appreciate you taking the time to share your thoughts with us.
We understand you’re looking for the ability to create your own report code structures within Xero that'd allow for more detailed and flexible reporting, helping to automate processes and provide clearer insights for your clients.
As noted by others in the idea, you can currently leverage the existing report code mapping functionality. While it doesn't allow for entirely new report codes, you can map multiple chart of account codes to the same report codes to group them for reporting.
To do this in bulk, you can also export your chart of accounts, apply the mapping in a CSV, and then re-import it.
We see the value in providing more customisation in reporting. Right now we have some more codes in the works for the UK - You can stay in the know of new features through our Xero Central Product Releases article and see what's 'coming soon' in the next quarter through The Long and Short of It
We’re committed to helping you deliver the best service to your clients, however we want to be upfront that creating a fully bespoke solution like what's asked here is not in the pipeline. Should our position change around this we'll update you, here.

AU Payroll - Payment summaries - copies or reprints
Payment Summaries in STP - Copies of prior years.
- It would be helpful if we could retrieve copies or make reprints of prior year payments. This is particular helpful where a new client comes on board, and you will not have history on files.

Credit Note - Ability to view contact when in the allocate Credit Balance Screen
When a credit note is approved, the next page that pops up is the Allocate Credit Balance screen. This screen does not state who the customer/supplier is, and when creating multiple credits, it can be hard to recall who each one is to. It would be great to have the Allocate Credit Balance screen displaying the contact of the credit (the reference would also be great, but I have already voted for that one separately).
With the new invoicing re-vamp this would be a great opportunity to increase the information on the Allocate Credit Balance screen too.

Bank Statements - Specify whether Direct/Prepayments/Overpayments on the CSV file
When importing bank statements, it would be very useful if we could select (already in the csv perhaps) whether the payment is to be a Direct Payment, or rather a Prepayment.
We receive almost exclusively prepayments, and I find that when I import the statement, that I cannot select that the income lines should be treated as Prepayment.

Shopify Integration - Confirm Daily payout settlements when importing
Subject: Request for Integration Enhancement of Xero and Shopify based on User Feedback
Dear Product Development Team,
Following my recent discussions with the Xero support team and research around user feedback on the issues I have experienced, I’d like to encourage relaying the integration feedback received from user experiences including my own, particularly regarding the timing differences between Shopify’s daily payout settlement and when the Xero integration pulls the data to create invoices. You can review some of this feedback through the following link: Shopify Xero Integration User Feedback: https://apps.shopify.com/xero/reviews?ratings%5B%5D=1
We’ve observed a gap in understanding the timing of these processes. I suggest working closely with Shopify to determine if there is a status flag for the daily rollup/payout that confirms it as settled for payment. This would help identify the optimal time to pull data via the integration into Xero. Additionally, validation checks could be implemented to ensure order numbers in the invoice match with the daily rollup, improving accuracy.
Currently, the setting up of a mock bank account known as a 'clearing account' to post Shopify invoice transactions serves as a workaround to monitor reconciliation by confirming a zero balance when payouts are matched with bank transfers. However, it seems this workaround is needed due to the transaction settling and timing differences with the Shopify > Xero data transfer. If the team can address the timing issue, I believe the user experience will improve significantly.
I hope this information helps the team troubleshoot and enhance the integration’s usability.
Best regards, Craig Jones-Stanley

New invoicing | History - Change the display to show all detail together
Please see attached doc re keeping some of old xero features in new xero
1 voteThanks for your feedback as well as sharing screenshots to show the differences and what would help you when using new invoicing.
Taking a look across these, the first around using a draft invoice as a template with only text in the description - this is currently possible, but may depend on how you are entering the information in your invoices. I'd recommend having a read of my update on this idea and joining if you'd like to receive updates.
We appreciate different users have different preferences to how they consume information and we'll track the interest in the layout of detail in History through your idea here. I've slightly changed the title of your idea, here. However just reflecting on your examples - all the information for the approved action as shown in your 'old xero' image, is the same detail as shown in the second note of your New Xero image.

AU Payroll - Ability to obtain costings for timesheet categories
Ability to obtain a report on the actual costings on each timesheet category. Currently only able to report on the hours paid. Would be helpful to find out costing on each category. Presently have to manually calculate by multiplying hourly rate charge and hours (plus super).

Projects - Different staff cost rate per project

Find and Recode - Ability to change the amount
Within the find and recode facility I would like the ability to change the amount posted. This can be particularly useful for repeating journals. For example, there could be a monthly release of a rent prepayment, where a rent review has been backdated several months and therefore the charge released needs adjusting historically. As it stands currently, each individual posting needs editing, rather than (say) being able to change 9 month's postings in one entry.
1 voteThanks for the detail in your idea here, Kevin. We don't have any plans to enable the changing of amount in Find & recode in the near term. We'll get a gauge a sense of the demand for this from community in your idea here.

integration with propertyme.com.au & propertytree.com
Integration with propertytree.com & propertyme.com.au for P&L
1 voteSorry we've note responded to your idea here sooner, John. We don't typically build integrations with other applications ourselves. Instead we have a developer centre where interested parties can come to get information and collaborate if they are interested in integrating with Xero. If not already I'd recommend seeing if this is something Property tree would be interested in developing from their end. You can share our developer platform here.

AU Payroll - Monthly payroll tax report
An automatic monthly payroll tax report would be fantastic. I've noticed Xero cannot do an automatic calculation of Payroll Tax like MYOB can. MYOB allows you to select pay categories (pay items) to exclude and run a monthly payroll tax report.
81 votesHi community 👋
Thanks for sharing and supporting this idea - while I don't have an update specific to this one, I thought you might be interested in the following:
Our AU Payroll team are testing some changes to Payroll reconciliation. The idea to have an automatic monthly payroll tax report is highly associated with payroll reconciliation and we feel that voters here would also have an interest in payroll reconciliation. They would love to hear from you!
They’re aiming to conduct some 1 on 1 interviews between 6 Feb - 16 Feb 2024, the interviews will last 45 minutes.
The purpose of the session: Participants will be asked to help with testing a prototype concept designed to enhance the AU payroll reconciliation process.
They aim to discover:
- Whether this conceptual solution meets your specific Payroll needs, and if it adds value to your Payroll reconciliation process?
- Whether this conceptual solution addresses your key struggles during Payroll reconciliation? What enhancements would you like to suggest?
If that sounds like something you’d like to get involved with, you can book here 👉 form removed since we've received enough interest.
- Heads up! Participants must be users of Xero AU Payroll, with experience of completing payroll reconciliation for 1 or more clients during EOFY

Reconciliation - Xero subscription invoice to be added automatically to xero for reconciliation
This should be automatically added to your account, rather than having to save to Xero manually each month
625 votesHi everyone, leading on from my last update we have now released improvements to eInvoicing for those in the UK! With the latest change you'll now find we've made it easier for you to opt-in to receive your Xero subscription bill via eInvoicing. You can now do this from your online invoice (My Bills page) instead of through the Billing contact page. Helping save you time and reduce manual data entry every month.😁
We understand there are other regions that'd still like to see this functionality developed and we'll shift back to submitted and share when there is news of moving this further afield.
We also wanted to address the recent comment of data sharing - We'd like to confirm that Xero do not share data with Peppol.com. We use the Peppol network and the subscription invoices are sent using our wholly owned provider, Tickstar. -
Xero Accounting app - Move favourite Tracking Categories to the top of the list
When adding bills in the app, I find myself searching for the same category over and over. On the desktop, a likely or previous category comes up automatically. That would be great in the app, too.
Failing that, it would be good if the list of categories contained frequently used categories first. I doubt anyone scrolls alphabetically, so it seems a useless feature to have.

UK Payroll - Activity Details report with a row per employee
A CSV/Excel file with headers Employee, Gross, Net, NI, giving essentially the same data as the Payroll Activity Details report, for a payrun, but in column format with one line per employee for ease of reference.
We have more than 30 employees and the Payroll Activity Details report is very long and cumbersome to reference.
