Contact - Ability to add date of birth
I have multiple clients who have members. They like to keep their members date of births on file, so they can send them birthday emails, or if they are over a certain age can get a discounted membership. It would be great to have either a dedicated date of birth field, or like some other accounting softwares a few open fields, that we could name per file, for additional required details, like date of births, member types, allergies, voting member etc. I'm sure these fields could be useful for other types of businesses as well.

Hubdoc multi-organisation search option
It would be useful if we could search for invoices/suppliers/amounts/Invoice references in all organisations listed within our Hubdoc portal. Meaning one search bar that searches all organisations, no just the one that is open at the time.

Contact | Activity - view reference of transactions
Implement a feature to make it easier to ensure purchase bills are paid only after the corresponding sales invoice has been settled by the client. Ideally, this could be achieved by adding a visibility feature, such as a dedicated column (along with the already existing Type, Reference, Issue date, Due date, Paid date, Paid, Due, Total, and Status) in the ‘Activity - Bills’ tab of a contact. This would eliminate the need to manually search for each sales invoice or purchase bill reference. This column could be optional, as the others are.
1 voteInteresting idea here, thanks for sharing. Will be good to get a sense of the interest and other businesses that process sales and payments in this manner. Being open it's not something we have plans for atm, but we'll start to track the idea here and let you know if there is any plans made.

VAT - Override VAT box figure and delete Adjustments
VAT In the VAT boxes you have to "adjust" the figure rather than entering the relevant amount. Why can't you just enter the figure and move on. It would be much easier. Also you can't delete what you've done in a box or re-start the entire return. In my view it makes Xero a sub-standard product.

AU Payroll - Allowances not reportable as W1 to be included in STP filings
STP2 Allowances. Not reportable at W1 should push that information through with STP, but it doesn't. Using reimbursements as a work around is not good enough - better syncing is needed.

Xero Accounting app - List contact transactions in Date order, newest first
When going into a contact in the web version oif Xero the paid and unpaid invoices/bills are listed in date order with the newest first. This is not the case in the Android App version and it is really annoying having to scroll through (in one case) 200 invoices to get to the most recent.
Can the App versions please go newest first like the web version..

Invoice report - Ability to view adjustments to tax
Would like to be able to find and recode transactions in bulk or have a report somehwere, where we can search the "include Adjustment to Tax" amount on any transactions. There is currently no way to find transactions that have this and to correct we have to find the batch payment, undo, edit the invoice, approve and re-batch. Not ideal.

Purchase order - Compare purchase order amounts raised with budgeted accounts
For Purchase Orders:
1) Able to assign departmental head for approval ( email goes to manager for approval and they can click and approve ) . Can create a approval level all from Xero to email.
2) Able to see budget against PO , once budget uploaded approver or procurer can see department or nominal account budget before approval.
1 voteAppreciate your idea, Sadan. Sort of 2 different requests in the one here.
We have an existing idea for being able to assign a user that can approve purchase order that you may like to join and vote for.
I'll slightly update the title of this idea to reflect the request to compare with budgeted amounts. We don't have any plans for this right now, but will get a sense of the interest to begin with through this idea.

Trust Account Management - South Africa Legal
South African Law is in desperate need of a simple Xero based Trust Account Management system.
Xero is so easy to use for the Business transactions, a similarly user friendly option for Trust Account Management would be a dream.

Repeating Invoices - Copy option
Repeating Invoices - ability to copy existing repeating invoice.
Reasons:
- Temporary Discount rewards (Scenario 1 below)
- Previously agreed future price changes
- Similar fee package for another client on a recurring basisScenario 1
- Client signs an ongoing recurring contract Monthly Fee = $1,000 (for illustration purposes):
- Client sends us a referral, so we discount their fee 10% for the next 4 months (update current recurring amount to $900)
- After 4 months client's fee will return to the previously agreed amount (create brand new recurring invoice, keying all the same information in, but removing the discount - post-date for 4 months from now for $1,000)This process would be a lot easier if we could Duplicate the first invoice.
Same is true if we are adjusting service levels at various future dates, but the bulk of the detail will be the same.
Same is true if a different client is getting the exact same services, it would be easier to just copy an existing one.

Multi-Entity - Intercompany Account Transaction Feed
There should be an ability to set up an intercompany account using the bank feed function between businesses that are 'connected'. This would save countless hours manually journalling transactions. You should be able to create a transaction in the bank feed, or mark an invoice as paid by the intercompany account and the corresponding transaction should show on the respective other company.

Invoices - Enable deduction of withholding tax
A type of tax code should be possible in which the tax is subtracted from, rather than added to, the invoiced amount for that line item.
Rationale: Many countries require that a foreign supplier's invoice be subject to withheld tax if the supplier doesn't have a satisfactory tax treaty entitlement.
Example:
We use a reverse-invoice process for our Australian supplier to record payments due to them based on our activity. This activity often attracts a royalty fee that we must pay.
The UK requires us to withhold 5% of this royalty fee, and pay this over HMRC quarterly.
To create the correct Bill, I enter a line on the "Bill" line showing the total royalty due, and then another line for the tax = a number calculated by typing an arithmetic formula such as
-200*.05
This line is now a negative number allocated to a withholding tax account. The negative number reduces the total on Bill.
This is clumsy manual process prone to errors. I would like to be able to automate the calculation and the allocation of withheld tax to a specified account and the subtraction of this tax -- similar to the way VAT is automatically calculated, allocated to the VAT account, and added to total.
I am aware that many countries have similar tax requirements. It would be good to enable a way for businesses to create withholding tax codes for their particular situation.

Invoicing - Option to highlight selected invoice lines
It would be great to see an option of being able to highlight in red or yellow a particular line on your sales invoice for the client to specifically take note of, because at the moment when I add a note for clients to see I write it in capitals but it still gets ignored. Whereas if it was highlighted they may take more notice of it.

Bank Feeds - Bank feed form status for all users
When a bank feed form is uploaded, you can see the status of this - currently if one person has uploaded bank feed form, no one else can tell. Would be great if it just showed "bank feed form uploaded and being processed" or something
11 votesHi everyone, thank you for this great suggestion about making the status of bank feed applications visible to all users within a Xero organisation.
We understand that when one team member submits a bank feed form, the lack of visibility can lead to confusion or duplicate work for others.
We encourage you and other members to vote, and add comments below sharing how having a shared status like "bank feed form uploaded and being processed" would improve your team's workflow.
While we don't currently have plans to build this functionality, we'll be keeping a close eye on the support for this idea here and will keep you informed of any updates.

NZ Payroll - Read Only access
With audited clients , we normally only give Read only access, but this excludes payroll access. So either we need to access for them, what the require, or we need to change access level to standard , which is not idea. Can you not have a read only role, with the option to include Payroll?

Xero Accounting app - Check if uploaded fully before save is enabled
Xero app - Adding a Receipt - check if image/s are fully uploaded before the Save button is enabled/allowed or run a check when the Save button is selected and if image/s are not fully uploaded alert user to wait.
Xero app - Adding a Receipt - auto compress images larger than x size.
The Xero app is incredibly slow when uploading images eg; receipt scans. These are not expenses, the expense app works differently and is much faster but I can't use it for business receipts as they are not 'claims'. It has become slower each time I've upgraded my phone and I've realised why...the size of the images increases as the camera improves. As a work around to save time, I've ended up installing a compression app on my phone which I have to use now as it is still faster than sitting waiting for a 8-10mb photo of a receipt to upload via the app.
Here is what I have to do - take photo/s of receipt/s - use compression app to compress - Add Receipt function in Xero app - find photo of receipt - attach to receipt entry. Yes doing all of this is much faster, although very cumbersome so it would be great if the app was able to deal with this instead.
The first request above is due to my discovery that you can save a receipt whilst an image is still uploading! This means xero doesn't get the image and you are otherwise none the wiser... :(.Many thanks!!

Sales - Set default landing page for 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?
3 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.

Batch Deposit - Create multi contact deposit without invoices
In QB you can "create a deposit" and in each line item, you can assign a customer, assign a GL account, class & amount. (there is also a line to assign to an invoice/customer ledger if you use those). You can then print a deposit slip from this as well!
PLEASE make this function available.
It is a hassle to enter every check or payment into "Receive Money", then have to go back and try to match up all the correct payments to the bank deposit in the bank reconciliation.
But if we don't do it like that, we cannot reference the customer and then find those payments down the line.
