Income and expenses by contact - Filter using tracking category
We run multiple branches out of one Xero ledger. We find the income and expenses by contact report very handy to track sales data, however it would be much more useful if we were able to filter by tracking catagory (for our instance we track branch locaiton).

Some invoices are missing in Xero – Pabbly Connect shows successful execution
I’ve integrated Pabbly Connect with Xero to automatically create invoices. The workflow in Pabbly shows a successful execution, but not all invoices are actually being created in Xero.
Has anyone else experienced this issue?
Is there a way to debug what might be going wrong between the successful webhook execution and invoice creation in Xero?Additional Details:
The webhook receives all required data including customer, line items, and invoice date.
Pabbly workflow shows "Success" status after sending data to Xero.
However, when I check Xero, some invoices are missing entirely.
No error message is shown in Pabbly.
This happens only with a few cases — not all.
Any ideas on what might be causing this or how I can track these missing invoices?
Thanks in advance!

1 voteHi Maheshwara, things that don't appear to be working as they should are best looked into by our specialists at Xero Support you can raise a case with them through Xero Central.
Where you're using an integration we'd generally recommend also contacting their support team as in most cases they have designed and built their integration with Xero themselves and are in the best position to troubleshoot.

Gift Aid - Option to automatically claim Gift Aid
As a charity we would really like the ability to be able to have Gift Aid and reporting on Xero, otherwise we would have to get a 3rd party piece of software to run Gift Aid.
It would be so great to be able to mark on a customers record that they allow us to claim gift aid on the monies they pay to us and then in turn for us to be able to run a report to submit to HMRC of how much Gift Aid we are able to claim from customers in others words extra income from the Government to our charity.Not sure how many UK charities use Xero for their accounting but this would be a helpful addition we feel.

JAX - Ability to move icon
Move "jax" and the new "Apps" icons into the Company Drop Down on the right hand side so they don't clutter our tool bar and you can go in there and chose to activate them or not.
Give us some choice please - I'm not loving having the search icon so far over now, as it has to make space for these 2, which I will not be using.
p.s. I did sign up for the Beta of jax and the first answer was wrong...1 voteThanks for your feedback, Rachel. I've passed this onto our product team.
We don't have any plans for changing the placement of the JAX icon atm, but it'll be good to get a sense from the community that also feel this way, here. We're keeping a close eye on feedback, and I'll let you know if there's any news to share with you here.

Glitches in the software
I've always felt like your software was created by people who have never used the software themselves because some of the pathways and defaults just don't make sense. Note: I access Xero using the Chrome browser.
Here are some changes that could be made that would really improve the user experience with Xero:When I'm entering bills, some date fields want me to enter the date like this: date/month/year and other times it wants me to enter it like this: month/date/year. It's very frustrating having to switch back and forth randomly.
After I finish putting in a bill, I click "Bills to Pay" at the top of the page and it takes me to paid bills. Why doesn't it take me to unpaid bills? I would never click "Bills to pay" and want it to take me to paid bills. The landing page for the bills section should never be All Bills or Paid Bills, it should always be Unpaid Bills. I have this same problem when I click Bills after I allocate a credit note. For some bizarre reason it takes me to Paid Bills. Please make it take me to unpaid bills.
When I'm entering bills, the due date should automatically default to the date of the bill. I noticed you are able to set a default due date for invoices a user creates, but nothing defaults for bills that are entered and it should just do the date of the invoice to make it easier to adjust the due date for each bill that is entered.
The pages jump to strange locations. After I've reconciled an item and hit 'OK' the page always jumps to a weird portion up or down the page rather than where I was working before I hit "OK". I have to scroll to find the next item I was working on each time I reconcile an item. A lot of pages jump to weird locations like that. It is extremely cumbersome and confusing working around this glitch.
The bank feeds never work for long. I try to connect them, sometimes they won't connect and when they do they always randomly disconnect and it's hit or miss if I can reconnect them. I do not understand why this service is so unreliable. With Quickbooks I can connect the feeds and they stay connected until I disconnect them or change my passwords.

1 voteHi Jenna, we appreciate your feedback and the detail you've given is great. However, it's best that strange behaviour or performance issues are shared with our specialists at Xero Support who have tools to be able to investigate and escalated with our team if something isn't working as it should.
There are a couple of your points I wanted to confirm here;
- Bills to pay - you are able to set a default page for this. It sounds like it may currently be set to Paid bills in your org. You can set the default by clicking the 3 dots in the top right of the page where you'll see 'Default bill page' to select your preference
- Default for bills due date - From the same place you can go to for invoice (Invoice settings) you can set a default Due date for your bills.
I'd recommend raising a case so we can confirm the other behaviours you're getting.
In terms of product ideas here, we ask that each post is for 1 idea only. This makes it clear for community to understand what they're supporting and to take back to our product teams for review. Thanks

professional version
Wouldn't it be a good idea to develop a professional version of XERO for those of us who use this for bigger concerns or who are professional bookkeepers? This one size fits all approach is not ideal, we don't require pop ups telling us how to create a copy invoice every time when it is something we do on a regular basis. Not the only thing that slows us down but there are too many to list
1 voteThanks for your feedback, Michelle. When you say a professional version are there other things out side of the notifications in product that you'd be looking for within a product of this kind?
Being open we don't have anything like this planned, however understanding your needs can help when sharing your feedback with the team.

Export audit (IAF) files
Our bookkeeper needs an audit file (IAF) to make our annual report. Currently downloading an IAF file is only possible for Singapore clients and not for Xero Global clients. Would be very useful if this would be available for everybody.

Nab BookKeeper Intergrations
Intergrating with Nab Bookkeeper
1 voteHi Zachary, appreciate you sharing your feedback on how you'd find Xero even more powerful for your business.
Being upfront we don't typically develop integrations ourselves. However we have a Developer Centre where interested parties can get information if they'd like to develop an integration with Xero.
I'd recommend connecting with Nab bookKeeper to see if this is something they'd be interested in building and you're welcome to share the link above.

Xero App store - Connected apps price and feature comparison
I am trying to find an app to help with cash flow forecasting. Xero could not have made it harder to compare. Why does the app overview page not say anything about the cost of the app? It only says free trial is available, however, I want to see what the ongoing cost is, before I even consider giving it a go. With Xero increasing costs so often and by an outrageous percentage, I find the lack of transparency of connected apps cost rather disingenuous. Xero needs to make it easier to not just search but also to compare features and benefits, and more importantly, costs. Also, the "connected apps" screen should not just give the option to disconnect but also to go to / open the app.

9 votesWe appreciate for many small businesses having more information about connected apps pricing is important when making and choosing solutions for your business.
While this isn't currently available, it's something our team are looking into surfacing through the Xero App store.
There's a bit of work to go into it, but we'll keep you updated of any progress for this here. 😊

aged debtors
Ability to see aged debtors' balance in the currency the invoice was generated in, not just in your base currency, otherwise, it is difficult to calculate how much a customer owes. The same is true when you view the balance for a contact. It shows the issuing currency for each entry, but the total is only shown in the base currency, which is not helpful if you need to inform someone of the balance outstanding.

Salary - restrict access to view salary entries
Stop staff viewing salary information via the contact or the account code, this is a MASSIVE problem and is costing real money right now. I am sure we are not the only business for whom this is a huge problem!
1 voteHi Damien, we'll need a bit more information on your workflow to best understand your needs here, and this would be best raised with our support team directly as a start.
It doesn't look like you've been in touch with our specialists at Xero Support yet, so I'd recommend raising a case with them through Xero Central where they'll be able to get more detail of your processes and if there's any recommendations they can make to help you to censor sensitive information from your staff.

Client's financial year summary - Single Donation receipt(AU)
As a NFP receiving multiple donations from multiple donors, we require summary of donations/purchases made by the donor/client as a single receipt including each donation/payment's invoice number, date paid, individual amount paid, total amount paid. The summary will need to include the NFP's logo, ABN, etc.
2 votesAppreciate you raising this in the community. It's not something we have plans for developing at this stage, we'll track the interest from your idea here and update you if there are any plans made.

Customer Statements - Totals for each column
It would be useful to look at an activity statement to see how much a certain contact has been invoiced regardless of whether they have paid or not. At present, I can only see outstanding balances.

Shopify - Connect 2 stores to one Xero Organisation
We have 2 Shopify stores, one for our wholesale customers and one for consumers, however, unfortunately, we cannot connect both to Xero, which is extremely annoying and causes a lot of work for us behind the scenes. Connecting both will mean a more streamlined experience and make our Xero world much easier.

Dashboard - Show difference between total Invoices Awaiting Payment and Bills You Need to Pay
On the Dashboard can Awaiting Payment, Display Current Month and Future as Two Separate Lines. At first glance we want to see what is happening this month, for example are the Receivables greater than Payables this month. Currently the Totals include all future Receivables and Payables. This is difficult especially when Directors are viewing via Mobile, although it's still a problem via PC.

Multicurrency - Supplier Statement in multi currency
The attached 'Supplier Statement' report has been 'retired'. Please consider reinstating this in Xero. We buy in euro and for financial audit purposes at every year end we need to issue this report. There is now nothing like this on Xero which makes no sense as we can't report without a mass of manual work to make a report outside of Xero.

Would be good to ad payment machine to xero
Would be good to be able to link your payment card reader to program so you could direct print invoice after customer pay by contactless using hims credit or debit card
1 voteHi Lukasz, what payment provider do you use? Just incase you haven't seen we've launched Tap to Pay powered by Stripe which is now available in a few different regions.
In terms of connecting to direct payment terminals, this would typically be through an integration. We don't generally develop integrations with applications ourselves however you may want to see if there's an integration in the app marketplace that works with your provider and could offer the services you're after here.

Hi Chloe, we don't generally develop integrations ourselves. Instead we have a Developer Centre where interested parties can get information and connect with experts that can help them develop and build an integration with Xero themselves.
I'd recommend sharing this link with Alto to see if this is something they'd be interested in developing.

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.
