Bills to Pay: Transfer attachments when converting Purchase Order to Bill
When converting a Purchase Order to a bill it would be great if there was a way of transferring any PDFs attached to the PO to the Bill. At the moment you need to remember to do this manually.

Projects - Transfer funds from one Project to another
Right now there’s no functionality in Xero Projects to transfer or "reallocate" funds from one Project to another.
As a charity, from time-to-time we need to reallocate funds from one project to another (for example if we have not received enough money to complete a particular project we reallocate the funds assigned to that project to a similar one to honor our donor's preferences).
I have tried looking in Manual Journals but there is no option there either. The only option I can find is to locate each invoice or "receive money" and change the project allocation. This is tedious as each project has many donors.
As a solution, I suggest that "Projects" be added to the Manual Journals, which would allow such transfers to be made (like transferring between tracking categories but for Projects).
Another option is to have a "transfer" or "reassign" button in each "project" that will transfer funds directly from one project to another. For example, transfer from X Project to Y project.A solution to the absense of this feature will be a huge help for all NFP and charity Xero clients and be beneficial for other clients who may have multiple projects for a single customer (i.e. to transfer any surplus funds from a completed project to a new or different project).

Reporting - Filter out Archived Contacts in Account Transactions Report
Hi all,
I want to run an accounting transactions report... if I filter the contact, it comes up with the whole list (I have loads archived!). Would it be possible to be able to filter out the archived contacts or at the very least, be able to type in the one I want?
My predecessor saved all PayPal transactions by their individual addresses so have had to archive them all to make my actual contacts list manageable!4 votes -

Contacts - Integrate with details registered on the Companies office
Part 1: Integrate with Companies office NZ (or similar) so that when I enter the name of a new contact it looks for the details of the company published on the companies office / NZBN. This could reduce data entry and validate that the name entered is a real company, accepting it wouldn't cover other entities.
Part 2: When a company status changes (e.g. goes into liquidation) you could show Xero users a warning, could do the same for company name & address changes etc..

Smart Lists - Add "Country" filtering option
Currently, when filtering smart lists by location you can only add [city, state] tags. It would be nicer to be able to just add country tags, to sort / view contacts by country as opposed to by city.
This would also allow new contacts in that country to automatically be added to the list, vs needing to handle this manually.

Contacts - Search/autocomplete for international addresses
When adding or editing a contact, I always enter their address.
Xero has this great feature that allows searching for addresses, and that's wonderful!
...except it's arbitrarily limited to only search addresses in the country the Xero org is registered in; a US Xero org only offers autocompletion for US addresses, for example.
In this modern, international, remote-friendly age, the notion of only having domestic clients is a little silly– especially when paying for a Xero tier that supports multiple currencies.
So: being able to search/autocomplete international addresses when editing or adding contacts would be a great addition.

Gocardless - Subscription template integration for reoccurring payments
Allow us to select 'reoccurring payment' in a repeating invoice for Gocardless in Xero.
When Xero generates a repeating invoice that is setup for auto collection from Gocardless, it is classed as a new payment each time and sends the Gocardless customer an email everytime.
In Gocardless when subscriptions were done through its own systems, they were classed as reoccurring payments and therefore as per BACS rules, the customer does not need to be informed everytime payment is taken.
We have over 400 monthly payments and growing, we can't keep emailing customers everytime we take their approved monthly payment, it worries them that we are taking it twice etc.

Bills - Ability to Reject bills, with a Note for the reason
Ability to reject a Draft Supplier Invoice and send a email to the supplier with why their Invoice was rejected.
To often, I receive invoices from Suppliers of whom have forgotten Purchase Order details or have missing information.
There is obviously the option to Approve an Invoice, nut nothing to reject.
I would like a function where I can Reject an Supplier Invoice and respond to the Supplier with why Invoice was rejected and this information is stored against the supplier and shown as a note on the Supplier History or.Would also be handy if there was icon or able to be displayed against Draft Invoices which indicate if a invoice has been Rejected etc.

AU Payroll - Add expire date for Time Off in Lieu
According to different awards Time off in Lieu is suppose to expire in 6 months time if not used. Currently you can only bank and take Time off in Lieu. It would be great if Xero could automatically expire hours not used as this is a common practice in many employee Awards.

Projects - Visual Dashboard for Projects overview and at a glance review
XERO Projects could do with a massive update!
Similar to the main dashboard XERO Projects could also do with a dashboard where you can see a quick overview of what is due in the coming weeks, what is overdue, what is assigned to me, or what is assigned to staff I manage. What projects are in draft status and what projects are 'in progress'. Projects with amounts that need to be invoiced and projects where allocated hours to tasks have been exceeded or amounts allocated to estimated expenses have exceeded.
In other words a dashboard that gives a nice visual that shows where all your projects are at and anything alarming is right there to see.
Maybe a calendar view of projects, which could be clinked on to expand to see more dates/days. Or a Gantt Chart view of projects. Just more ways to view where all the projects are at in a short amount of time. Not just one big long list to look through.

I've shared with our Projects team. We're continuing to add Projects and while there's no plans at present I'll let you know if anything surrounding this is explored we'll share with you here. 🙂

User role - Restrict option to add or delete Bank Accounts To Subscriber user role
It is concerning that Bank Accounts can be added or deleted by users with "Standard User Access or even "Advisor" in some cases.
Considering the whole Xero Accounting system revolves around Bank Feeds, the ability to add a bank account, activate Bank Feeds or even delete a bank account should only be a function available to the Software Subscriber.

Repeating bills - Due date options to include 'working days' not just 'calendar days'
I have a repeating bill that is set up with the due date 14 days after invoice date. This is fine except the date calculated is 14 calendar days and the bill is actually due after 14 working days. Is it possible to have an option that allows for working days rather than calendar days?

Login page - redirect to ReturnUrl if already logged in
Redirect to the ReturnUrl on the login page if you refresh and have already logged back in, eg. from another tab.
Context: I usually have many Xero tabs open. If I am logged out due to session timeout, all of these tabs redirect to the login page with a ReturnUrl in the query string. If I log in on one of those login pages, I am correctly returned to where I was in that tab. If I refresh another one of the tabs after logging in, it stays on the login page rather than automatically redirecting to the ReturnUrl.
It appears the only solution currently is to re-log in to each of the tabs even though I'm already logged in. Otherwise I lose my place in all of those tabs.

VAT Reconciliation Report - Auto-populate and drill down into figures
An updated, functional VAT reconciliation report.
The existing VAT reconciliation report isn't particularly useful. It has to be populated manually and the figures that do populate automatically can't be drilled down into. Not helpful.
VAT reconciliation aren't really a problem for us as we can use the Detailed Account Transactions report to identify the transactions posted directly to the VAT account i.e. transactions that have a category of VAT, whether it be a VAT payment, VAT on imports or just simply a miscoding by the client. Essentially it highlights those transactions that will affect the VAT ledger balance but won't necessarily appear on a VAT return.
However, the Detailed Account Transactions report is being retired in July and I fear we'll have no way of identifying these transactions. I've contacted Xero support and they weren't aware of the report being used in this way and don't currently have plans to replace this report.
I feel there are 3 options here:
Don't retire a functional report,
Retire a functional report but replace it with a new version, or,
Create a functional VAT reconciliation report that highlights the differences between the VAT ledger balance and total VAT returns less total payments.An updated, functional VAT reconciliation report.

Contacts - Sort by Contact account number
Sort 'customer or supplier' list by account number from the drop down menu, (not the same as the search function).
The account number field is a unique identifier to any customer or supplier record. Having this function should be a necessity as it is with most other software.
In many cases the account number field is overlooked in Xero from the users point of view, yet it underpins the whole database for many people and connecting software/apps.
In the same vein, the 'date added' drop down, which could be argued as being able to achieve a similar result, in my experience does not return a true result.Sort 'customer or supplier' list by account number from the drop down menu, (not the same as the search function).

Reports - display currency symbol
Why doesn't Xero display the currency symbol (like a $) in any of the financial reports like Balance Sheet, Income Statement, etc.? We get only the plain numbers without knowing they are in U.S. dollars (in my case) and make these basic financial reports harder than necessary to read.

Batch Payment Report with Totals By Supplier
A report that shows the total paying a supplier in a payment batch, currently we can only produce a Batch report that has individual invoices and a total over all but no total by supplier.
Optional to have supplier bank details paying to would also be great
