Quote/Invoicing - Job Workflow
BETTER WORKFLOW FOR QUOTES/DELIVERIES/INVOICING:
If we could get the actual flow for how the paperwork per Job can be produced!1.I always start with a QUOTATION: this doesn't always need to be sent to a customer at all as it could be raised by way of a telephone conversation, etc,et. This is logged as a Job manually in a Workbook.
2.If the customer agrees and some do use PO numbers then when we go to accept/confirm, this is when we need the ability to enter Their PO number or some other confirmation that can be proved, this may take the form of an email or even the customers name!
On other systems it is possible to send " order confirmation " for them to check and alter if anything needs adding etc,etc.
3. After approval, then we need to fulfil and deliver the Job, this is logically when a Delivery Note will be required...definately waste of time when raising an Invoice as this is the last stage..
The delivery note can accompany the Job in transit etc.
4. Finally when job is Delivered, we raise an Invoice..At all stages, copies of any emails must remain on the system or in the respective email software, Outlook etc...
This would give a normal workflow to Job flow in my opinion and make Xero more user friendly

API - Assign a Project to an Invoice line via the API
Via the XeroAPI, assign a project to a line item on an invoice.
Looking in both the invoices, and projects APIs I can not see how to do the assigning.
Also, If i assign the project from with in the Xero website, and GET either the invoice or the project, neither response seems to have the assignment.
First raised by Chris Chase on the community archive: community-forum-archive/discussion/118540025

Contacts | Merge - show contact merged to
When merging customers xero currently completes the merge and then displays the profile that has been moved which typically (for me) contains no customer data. Is it possible to instead display the profile that the customer has been merged to which shows all the existing customer data. Usually I am completing a merge and then having to go in and search for the customer name again.

Reports - When running the GL detail report on a Cash Basis, show the description of invoices & bills
As payments are applied to invoices or bills, you can't see the description detail on a cash basis report (no problem with an accrual detailed general ledger though).
The old general ledger (export function) enabled you to see the description on both accrual & cash.
Seems illogical?!

Invoices / Bills - Option to copy line above
Whilst doing multiline bills and invoices we need a key stroke shortcut that copies the line above to reduce time taken to enter data. I was used to this in sage. I REALLY miss it. Please!!!!
53 votesAppreciate wanting this feature if the line is unique, Melanie. However, if the lines are for items you regularly buy or sell, perhaps you could set up untracked inventory items to be able to quickly select and fill fields of your invoices and bills?

Xero Accounting app - Automatically assign the next Purchase Order number
When using the Xero app from your phone, to have the Purchase Order numbers auto generate the number.
Currently, we have to look back and previous purchases to find the last used PO....unless you have a great memory. And then, while creating a new purchase order, we have to enter the new number.
Currently, we also need to select as an optional detail, the order number. It would be nice if the app created a new PO number, sequentially from the previous PO issued.
The two attachments show when creating new PO, the first screen. Then I need to add the number, which is frustrating(Second screenshot). Any help on making this more automated would be great.When using the Xero app from your phone, to have the Purchase Order numbers auto generate the number.

VAT201 report | PDF - Links to attached files
VAT201 Report - PDF link to scanned tax invoices. It will be great to have a PDF link to scanned invoices attached to bills and invoices in the transaction by field number report. It will be easier and save time to download and save from this screen, instead of opening the actual bill or invoice in order to download attached documents for upload on SARS efiling for VAT verification/audit.

Invoice - Add dynamic Paynow QR code to invoice
Invoice amount and invoice number pre-filled after customer scan Paynow QR code. Increases accuracy and efficiency during bank reconciliation
23 votesHi team, as you may have seen in our Xero news, we've been making a lot of improvements in the payments space. While not a direct solution to what you’re asking here, we're beginning to roll out a Tap to Pay experience powered by Stripe in the US. This payment method is already available in AU and the UK, and makes it even easier for your customers to pay you in person, using just your mobile phone and the Xero Accounting App - no extra hardware needed. When these payments come into your Stripe bank account in Xero you'll have all the information for easy reconciliations. We will also be launching Tap to Pay in NZ and Canada after the US.

Xero Expenses - Search Projects by code
Currently when we are submitting expense claims we have to scroll through all our past projects to find the project we need to assign an expense to. We would like a simple search bar placed at the top of this list so we can start typing and the relevant projects will come up as an option.

Xero Me - List earning rates in alphabetical order
We have several earnings rates Eg. Normal Time, Saturday, Sunday, etc and for each earnings type, there are several rates. We have these set up in Xero and they display in Alphabetical order under 'Pay Items'.
However, when staff are completing their timesheets in Xero Me, all of the earnings rates are out of order (in fact they are in no particular order!) which makes it very hard for employees to complete their timesheets correctly. We have over 45 staff and approximately 30 earnings rates, therefore having them in random order in Xero Me causes many timesheet errors.
I am suggesting that XeroMe Earnings Rates are listed in alphabetical order.

Invoice templates - Set defaults for show/hide fields
When creating/editing an invoice with the new style, you can select fields to show/hide. We would like to be able to change these and set the changes as default - at the moment you have to go in and select the ones you would like to see every time you are editing an invoice. The main one for us is the discount column - we would like to see this on every invoice. Having this functionality to show/hide is good, but just don't want to change this every time.
13 votesHi everyone, we appreciate your feedback on the show/hide fields option. As you may have seen in other updates we're working on a new line item grid that will encompass a few enhancements we know our customers want to see, and will also include an improvement to the behaviour of the show/hide fields so the options you select will be retained. I'll come back to confirm when this is released.

Account Transaction report - Add Quantities & Unit Price to Column Drop Down
It would be incredibly helpful if 'Quantities' & ' Unit Price' were included as column options in the Account Transactions report.
This way one can quickly review the quantity & price of each entry without having to drill down into each individual entry. It would also provide a total quantity and average unit price for the given period.
The example that I am referring to is on a farm business where we would like to review the tonnes of crop sold and the price.158 votes -
Spend / Receive money - Ability to set tracking defaults
Allocate specific tracking categories to transactions instead of showing every category when a transaction is created.
Currently all tracking categories show when creating a new spend/receive money. In our business one of these categories is used for timesheets only. I would like the option to be able to choose which tracking categories display when creating new spend/receive money transactions in Xero, in the same way that I am able to do this for payroll and on invoicing.

Bills - Categorising hire purchase or loans from aged payables
Having the option of when adding a purchase invoice which is for a hire purchase or a loan agreement, then Xero automatically removes the aged payable balance from the listing and posts to a Hire Purchase/Loan nominal code to avoid having HPs/Loans in the payable listings - I know that this is a feature that other accounting systems have, such as FreeAgent.
1 voteI know it's been some time since you first started this idea, Harry. There's been lots of discussions from other users on Xero Central about recording Hire purchase transactions, and if you're using Xero's Fixed Assets you'll find steps on how to do this in our article here.
There's no logic in Xero to automatically detect where a transactions is for hire purchase or a loan, however if you've set up a liability account that you can record these sort of transactions to, it's a simple process of choosing this account when recording the transaction in Xero.
Tbh we don't have any immediate plans for changing how this works in Xero for the short term.

Invoicing - Assign a default Due Date and Currency per Invoice template
To allow default settings for individual invoice templates. For example rather than set a default due date or currency for ALL invoices, allow individual invoice templates to be set there own due date timeframes , ie 7 days or immediate payment terms and also the same for currency.
The more standardised we can make our templates, the less likelihood of user error.

Invoices - Add placeholders to invoices
It would be great if you could use placeholders in item and in the general text of an invoice. I know this feature is available in recurring invoices but would be great if we could add to all invoices.

Reports - Add report with all bank statement lines
A report showing all Bank Statement lines for (Filtered) bank accounts and date ranges.
This report could be used to track transfers that go from Bank Account A to B to C.
Should include User created statement lines and reconciliation status. Additional details such as matched transactions would also be useful.11 votes -
Contacts - Option to choose column to sort by
Sorting bills or invoices under contacts by bill/invoice number or date or due date or reference, etc., Previously I believe that this was possible, now the only column is date and that's pretty annoying when looking for a particular bill number, etc.,
