Projects - Allow access to view profitability without admin user role.
we have recently set up our business so everyone is on xero, we would like people to be able to view profitability in projects, but not have the admin user.
Giving people admin user allows them too much access, but we want them to be able to see profitability on the projects so they can keep track.
is there a way we can give them access, without upgrading their user role??4 votesHey Rebecca, thanks for your engagement and for sharing this detailed suggestion about user permissions in Xero Projects.
We've reviewed your idea to allow users to view project profitability without needing the full admin user role, and it can now gain support from other community members. We understand the need for team members to keep track of a project's performance, and why granting full admin access isn't always suitable.
Along with votes, others can now comment to share additional detail about how this more granular user role would improve their project management and empower their teams. 🙂

MTD For Income Tax (UK) - Accounts selection
When we eventually have to submit quarterly IT reports to HMRC, it will be very very helpful to be able to select which income accounts, and which expense accounts are include in the submission. Similar to being able to produce a custom profit and loss report. The reason being that some income or expense categories might be something that only gets included in the year end tax return calculations. My particular scenario as a sole trader is operating only one bank account, into which goes all my income, but out of which comes not only 100% business expenses, but also…

Bank Reconcile- Allow editing of one line item of a batch deposit
Currently there is the inability to edit one payment in a batch deposit that was created from the Reconcile screen without dismantling the entire batch (with Unreconcile, and then Remove and Redo). If the batch Deposit is created from the Invoice screen and one line item needs adjusting, we have and option to Edit Batch. This allows for removing one line item of the batch but preserves the remainder of the batch (less the removed line item). Please add the Edit Batch function to batch deposits created in the Reconcile screen too! It is a big pain point when you…

Reporting - Percentages with decimals when expenses shown without
Xero allows us to choose whether or not we show decimals in an Income Statement. We believe showing 2-decimal places on revenue and expenses to be unnecessary, but feel it is VERY important to show 2-decimals on the % of revenue. It is better to show .04% than .00% and .05% than 1%. We would like to see Xero separate the option of decimals between numbers verses percentages so our clients can have a clear grasp on their performance.

Sales Invoices - Import with Paid status and Date
Sales Invoice - Bulk create Sales Invoices is possible with the import of the csv file, however, the invoices entered is not marked as paid, so we either mark them all paid on one especific date (bulk payment) or go in each one of them and enter the payment...
Going in each one is impratical, and bulk paying all, lets say, at the end of the month is ok, but not right.
We would love to create and mark the invoice as paid in one go, just like with the import precoded bank transactions...
That would help a lot, as…

NZ GST - New GST return layout
New GST return layout and a few thoughts around it :-
1) when you export the PDF, the file name only shows as eg, GST return 01022024 for a GST return for period ending 31 March 2024. Why can't it show the client's company name, GST return followed by Period end date?
2) when you try to export the PDF with accounting firm logo - it doesn't seem to work and who has "minutes" to wait for it to download?
3? The body of the report is now in landscape which if the client were to print would…42 votesHi everyone, we appreciate all your feedback on the new GST return and while I've made sure your feedback has been shared with product, we're going to close this idea being too broad to focus in on a particular change.
We've created individual ideas for the following points raised as it'd be good to track the interest in each separately. Please do add your vote to each that you'd like to see.
- NZ GST - Export customised return
- NZ GST - Compact export (landscape v portrait)
- NZ GST - Move File with IR to top of page
- NZ GST - Styling PDF export
I'd also encourage raising a case with our specialists at Xero Support if you're having any issues with performance or usability as it'd be good to get more detail and our team can investigate.

NZ payroll - Create a shared Calendar
Integration of all employee leave taken with a shared calendar in outlook or calendar in Xero itself that everyone can view to see who is on leave and when.
5 votesHi everyone, appreciate your interest in a shared calendar for Payroll in NZ. With payroll products being worked on quite separately we have split this idea out from this one, so we can track the interest for this in each product and keep you updated.
Being open this isn't something we have immediate plans for in NZ payroll, however we're keen to continue to track the interest and can keep you updated if there are any developments.

Cash coding - Floating headers
Hi All,
On cash coding screen, it would be great if there was an option to freeze the heading panels so you dont have to keep scrolling up if you have millions of lines to code. Eg: to uncheck all
Thank you so much.

Contacts - Turn off the Contact name suggestions when entering transactions
Please provide functionality in Xero to turn off the contact name suggestions when creating an invoice, bill, receive money or spend money transaction. This is very frustrating especially if you make a mistake and it saves it, it is there forever. Also the list can get quite long. We need to delete the names that are not required anymore from the list. Please, please fix this issue up.
9 votesHi everyone, appreciate the feedback here. As you may have noticed we have made some changes to the Contact field within new invoicing over the past few months to improve the experience.
When entering a contacts name, the contact's shown are results from your existing contact record.
As a start to help with cleaning up contacts that have been created in error you can either edit contact records, or merge contacts that may have been created as duplicates in error. This will help limit the number of contacts that are appearing in results when you type a contacts name on an invoice.

New invoicing - Emailing Invoice where invoice date in locked period
Do NOT display an error message and update the history and notes.
Sending Receipt to Client50 votesAppreciate the feedback and including a screenshot of the notifications you're getting on the invoice, Andrew. Just to make sure I fully understand your idea here - Are you saying that rather than seeing the pop up you'd like to have these added as history events to the invoice?

Account Transaction report - Preview attached files without having to drill into transaction
It would be great if we could add a "files" column to account transactions to view attached files without the need to drill into each separate transaction. This feature is already available in VAT returns.
6 votesJust to check, would this be from the Account transactions tab of a bank account or from the Account Transactions report?

Bank reconciliation - Increase find and match limit
Dear Xero Team,
I am a regular user of the Xero Cloud Portal and appreciate the platform's intuitive features for managing business finances.
However, I am currently facing a challenge when reconciling bank transactions. I frequently receive bulk deposits that are made up of a large number of small invoices—often exceeding 100. Unfortunately, Xero's current system limits me to matching only up to 100 invoices against a single deposit. This creates a significant bottleneck in my reconciliation process and affects my workflow efficiency.
Feature Suggestion:
It would be extremely helpful if Xero could increase the invoice matching limit to at…2 votesThanks for sharing your idea with us, Dora. We appreciate you taking the time to let us know what changes matter to you.

AU Payroll - Allow to change settings for Decimal places for pay items.
pay rates rounding by 4 decimal points causing an underpayment of wages. EG: Base rate is 25.65 x 1.5 = 38.475000 but the award rate is actually 38.48. Need a solution for this ASAP.

Projects - Ability to edit time of users who have left
I use Projects as timesheets for my staff in my contracting business, and it has worked well for the past two years. I do not use Xero process staff wages, I use ACE Payroll.
After a staff member leaves, I delete them from Projects, as it costs me $7.50 per month per person, and when you have between 20-25 staff, it can get quite expensive.
Once I delete a staff member from Xero, I cannot change any of their time entries. The reason I need to do this is usually because they have allocated his/her time against the wrong project.

AU Payroll - Option for Weekly PAYG Withholding period
Ability to change our PAYG Withholding period to weekly. Only options are None, Monthly or Quarterly. The ATO requires we lodge and pay PAYGW weekly now and this is not possible in Xero. We have to change our PAYGW period to None so that it does not show on the BAS and manually calculate, lodge and pay this weekly.
36 votesHello everyone, we appreciate you engaging with us about this topic. To clarify, we acknowledge support in this idea has arisen from a new requirement from the ATO that means large orgs that withhold over $1M annually to submit PAYGW weekly via STP.
While we appreciate why you'd like to automate this flow of information from Payroll to BAS within Xero there are two current options;
- Within Payroll settings you could untick “Reportable as W1 on Activity Statement” so your payroll data is not included in BAS, or
- Manually remove the W1 and W2 figures from your Activity Statement to lodge activity statements for clients that are submitting weekly PAYGW.
This idea is on our product teams radar, however we want to be upfront that at this stage we don't have any plans for developing an automation of these fields.
We'll continue to monitor this idea closely, and share if…

MTD for IT - Make available to users without a Xero partner
Allow self employed who are not VAT registered to use MTD.
I've just signed up to submit accounts via MTD with HMRC but Xero currently don't allow me to do this unless I use an accountant. I use Xero so I don't need an accountant...

Please help! thanks.2 votesThanks for your interest in Xero’s MTD for IT beta and for sharing this idea here. In the first phase of our beta, we’re only supporting Xero Partners.
