1. Subscription - Allow downgrade any time (effective at the end of the subscription period)

   It is ridiculous that you are forced to set a calendar reminder to come back and downgrade a Xero Subscription in a month's time.
   A client may need to increase their subscription purely to account for the crossover period of one staff member leaving and a new one starting and whilst we have no issue paying the additional for the one extra employee, to make it impossible to downgrade for a month after that upgrade is a pathetic cash grab by Xero.
   Make it possible to downgrade the file immediately and have it take effect from the future date.

2. Sales invoice | History - Show I.P. Address with date & time viewed

   When a client opens an invoice or quote Xero shows the IP address of whom ever opened it and the time it was opened. This is especially helpful when multiple people have access to the invoices. It also shows that the client did in fact see the invoice especially when they claim they haven't. Handy tool for chasing payment

   We appreciate your feedback on how we could improve new invoicing, and the details that would help you track when a customers has viewed your invoice. While recording I.P. address of when a user opens an invoice or quote you’ve sent isn’t in the plans right now, we’re continuing development in this space and our product teams would like to engage you all here to get a deepened sense of our invoicing users, for future improvements. If you'd be interested in sharing further feedback we have a survey you can fill in. We'd love to get your input.

3. AU Payroll - Choose when Employees have access to payslips in XeroMe

   From the moment you post a payrun, and this can be 1 day or 10 days before payment is made, employees have access to their payslips. To pull an ABA from the payrun, you need to post the payrun first. I process payroll for over 30 business's. Part of that process, as I am sure it is for any agent or employee bookkeeper, you generally need to get an approval (even the filing for STP makes you verify that an authorised person has checked it). This approval is an email to the client with the payroll information (including ABA file) so that if all is ok, they can make payment (and flick me an email when they have time - which can be days after payment is made) and we don't have to wait for their approval then resend with the ABA attached, which makes it a time consuming task for our clients who are super busy running their business. Under Australian Fairwork requirements, they only need access to within one day of their payment date, so why can it not be linked to that? The payment date needs to be the trigger for the access, not posting of the payrun.

4. Reporting - Show Invoice Approved Date in the Current Nominal transactions Report for Turnover reconciliation

   Turnover per XERO and VAT declared Net Sales should be ideally Equal ,however often may not match and therefore need reconciling-which is important to understand the difference from both the YE accounts and HMRC point of view .

   There should be a report in XERO which can facilitate this reconciliation rather than use spreadsheets -which is time consuming when the information is already existing in XERO

   One of difference arising is -"The Date" invoice created and approved -are different and will report in different periods of the VAT return and Xero Sales Nominal Account

   Example -Invoice created and left as Draft -dated 26/4/23 (note 1)
   Approved on 20/9/23 (Note 2)

   Note 1 -The Nominal Account will show this sale dated 26/4/23 ie Qtr say April -June 23
   Note 2 -The VAT entry as output will be declared in Qtr July -Sept 23

   This calculation gets complicated with lots of such entries in the year and suggest a report on sales within Xero to be able to pick up both Created and approved dates for each sales invoice and an option in the current Nominal codes transactions report.

   so overall annual turnover per the year will be equal in this simple example but not when within each Qtr

5. Improved and transparent user consultation prior to implementing changes.

   Xero made a lot of noise about how good the 'new invoicing' feature would be. Users gave plenty of feedback early on when new invoicing was optional, both in comments and by not switching over to new invoicing. Xero proceeded with the change seemingly unaware of the negative mood amongst users to the new invoicing feature.

   The product ideas section show, only in it's first 5 pages, 43 product ideas about new invoicing. Many of these product ideas are requests for previously available features to be made available again. Many of the ideas are under consideration or being worked on.

   This shows that users liked new invoicing far less than Xero first believed they would. This shows that the process that Xero used to gauge users' response to the changes, that process was deficient because it reported back to Xero that new invoicing was ready for release when it clearly wasn't.

   What's needed here is a more transparent process and more honest communication from Xero with its users.

6. Contacts - Improve UK Postcode Lookup

   Xero has the facility to look up UK addresses by postcode when entering new contacts etc.

   Unfortunately it usually makes a such a mess of the address, I end up editing it all again anyway!

   • UK Postcode lookups can return a Company Name (e.g. if there are multiple companies registered at the same address.) Xero adds this company name again to the address. In our case, that is a duplicate of the Contact name, so we take that out to avoid it appearing twice.

   • UK Postal counties are obsolete and should no longer be used in postal addresses. Royal Mail stopped using counties years ago, and stopped providing it in the postcode data. If you use their postcode/address finder today, https://www.royalmail.com/find-a-postcode - the address returned never includes a county. (Their idea of what a county is, and the "actual" county were often two entirely different things: over the years, the boundaries of various counties changed, some counties were abolished, but good old Royal Mail never updated the counties for their purposes!)

   https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Postal_counties_of_the_United_Kingdom

   • Examples:

   1. IG11 7BB : Xero returns "Essex" as the "State", duplicates the house number in the Road name, puts "GBR" in the Country. All this has to be fixed up.

   (Barking, IG11 is in Greater London and has not been in the county of Essex since 1965!)

   1. EC1V 2NX , E14 3JB, many others... Xero returns City: London, State: "Middlesex"

   Greater London isn't really a county. Middlesex was abolished in 1965 - most became part of London with other towns going to other counties.

   https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/London_Government_Act_1963

   Although people sometimes still like to write the county in their addresses, they are no longer needed, and the post counties were just adding to the confusion, hence why they were dropped.

   1. KT5 8LS - SURBITON. Xero returns "Surrey". It used to be in Surrey before 1965, but is today in the borough of Kingston (Greater London). No Surrey needed! Again duplicates the flat/house name in the road name. So we get: "Flat XX, 121 Chiltern Drive, Flat XX"

   2. KT6 5JE - SURBITON. This IS in the administrative county of Surrey, but you don't need the county on the address. No Surrey needed! (Sorry, Surrey!)

7. Reporting - Running scenario analysis with draft transactions

   Dave Andrews asked a question.
   Edited Tuesday, 15 August 2023 12:36 PM

   Can one create a report based on DRAFT information eg Draft invoice not approved
   Can one create a report based on DRAFT information eg Draft invoice or draft bill (not approved and therefore not posted into the books of account).

   For example I would like to see what impact certain entries would have on a balance sheet or income statement but dont want to approve them only to see the impact and then subsequently void or reverse them if I am, say unhappy with the outcome ? I see there is a way to "save as a draft or published"report but get the sense it does not contemplate what I describe above. A "what if " type exercise is one way to characterise it. Thank you

   Paul Hodges (Xero)
   Hey Dave
   Although you can include Draft invoices and bills in the Receivable and Payable Invoice Summary reports, you can't currently report on the effect un-approved items would have on your accounts.
   You might like to share this idea with other users on our Product ideas site, as this is helps our Product team to consider future changes.

8. Lock Dates - Option for an auto lock date every month

   The ability to have a set lock date EACH month. For example, every month by the 5th the prior month is locked for users other than the advisers. Currently you can manually do this, IF you remember.

   My issues is, if I do not remember the accounting clerk will go back multiple months creating entries and causing issues.

9. New Invoicing - Change tabbing behaviour

   Hey Xero, there seems to be a lot of issue and complaints about new invoicing. How about giving us all a break and re-enable the old invoicing till you get thing sorted out.

   • Cant stop auto save , there is no undo button if you make a mistake.
   • Tabbing between fields is not the same.
   • Can't add expenses and leave them un-allocated to a GL, I know that the expense is @ cost price and needs to be completed. -Cant change the Customer with Billable expenses assigned without loosing the billable expenses and have to re-assign them

   Cheers

   Appreciate your feedback, Selwyn. We try to keep each idea separate so it's clear to others in community what they're adding their vote for, we can gauge the interest in a particular feature, and we can keep everyone updated of any development.

   In relation to the points you've shared here we have an idea you may like to join around being able to switch off autosave, and another around the auto suggest feature that current fills in the account GL field for you and relates to your second point on leaving this blank.

   Our team did make some changes to the flow of tabbing, so this should be more logical however it'd be good to get more detail on what's causing you issues when tabbing in new invoicing atm.

   It might help to get a bit more detail about the billable expense scenario you're running into, too. In terms of billable expenses assigned to a customer - in how this is designed when you assign a billable expense this is allocated to either a contact or project. This is why it's not possible to change the contact of an invoice without first removing the billable expense items.

10. Quotes - Update default exchange rates in footer, when using custom exchange rates

    I would like to suggest creating quotes in multiple currencies should be the same as setting the exchange rate. As currently when we choose another currency when creating a quote, while the exchange rate still appears as the custom rate, the exchange rate that appears on the PDF is the default rate. We should all be on the same page.

11. Xero Ledger - split payment

    There should be a way to input dates when we want to split the payment to multiple items (invoices/bills) when we reconcile (e.g. cash code or find and match).

    Right now, if I want to input multiple invoices/bills that is linked to a one payment, all invoices/bills will need to have same date as the payment date which is technically incorrect.

    Hi all, returning to the idea we're going to shift this across to delivered. As noted i my earlier response you can manually enter a payment amount and date of payment on an invoice or bill - Meaning if you need the payment date to differ to the date of the statement line imported this could be manually entered on the invoice or bill pre-hand and matched to the one payment when reconciling.

    Alternatively, when reconciling a transactions through find & match in Xero you have the option to 'split' where you can apply a set amount of the payment to the transaction rather than the full amount.

12. Purchase Order Posting to General Ledger + Xero Projects Integration

    The functionality to be able to raise and approve a Purchase Order which, at the point of approval, would create a double entry in the general ledger. Specifically:

    • Debit a Work in Progress (WIP) expenses account (to reflect anticipated expenditure),

    • Credit a creditors account (to reflect the anticipated liability).

    This would allow the PO to reflect a commitment in the accounts, enabling better management of Work In Progress and projected costs before the supplier invoice arrives.

    In an ideal world, to be able to allocate the PO to a Xero Project, so that WIP and anticipated costs appear within the project reporting as well. This would give far more accurate forecasting and project-level financial visibility.

    As it stands, it is understood that Xero POs are non-posting documents and only affect the ledger once a bill is created and approved. That leaves a visibility and accounting gap for committed costs — especially problematic for longer-term projects or cashflow planning.

14. Invoice Reporting (Payables) - Ability to include Planned Date as a separate column

    In the new reports you can run a report, by supplier, of invoices that are due and planned to be paid, which is great. There is a differentiation between due and planned in both screen detail and reporting. The schuduled/planning option enables users or managers to plan which invoices they wish to pay either by viewing on Xero or running in a report. However, the reporting option puts the two together by adding in an invoice wiht the same due date, if a planned date has not been entered. This means that invoices not scheduled/planned to be paid are included in the report. It is possible to filter to include a due date if you filter wihtout it, it is still included
    As a bookkeeping practice managing sizeable purchase ledgers,this defeats the whole ability given to scheudle paymetns and run a corresponding report to issue to clients to pay their suppliers. Directors dont look in Xero and rely on their accounts teams to produce reports for them. There are 'get-arounds', we've worked with them for over 10 years.
    
    This funtion is SO close, the only thing lacking is the report, run by planned, date, filtered by planned date, to please not include an invoice that happens to have the same due date unless the request to include that filter has been selected
    PLEASE can we have this report
    Many thanks, a broken record to the reporting team but still asking

15. Email to Bill - Auto attach copy of source email as a file when creating bill

    When a client emails bills into Xero files, they often include a note saying APPROVED or POST TO DIRECT COSTS and even- PLEASE PAY TOMORROW. At the moment I have to open the email, take a copy, email it back into Xero files and then attach that to the bill along with the original bill. Can a copy of the email be automatically attached to the bill when it is processed from files? It would save a lot of time.

    Deposits on Sales and Purchases - will this ever be possible in Xero? The workarounds are fine if you have a few deposits to keep track of. But what if you have many? Like my Art Gallery client where most art is sold on a 'layby' system. The layby isn't recorded as a sale until it is fully paid. The customer makes multiple payments. There is no way to directly link the payments to a pending sale. They all coded on-mass into a prepayment liability account. The only way to keep track of payments is a spreadsheet which is time consuming, unweildly and prone to errors. SURELY this functionality can be added to Xero. Pretty, please?

17. Reconciliation - Edit imported bank statement CSV directly in Xero

    For manual reconciling, the bank statement file can be generated using a CSV template and requires inputting details like the Date, Description, and Reference. However, users, especially those with high monthly transactions, may want to change/edit the descriptions after the file has been uploaded and reconciled.
    Currently, to do so, the bank statement needs to be deleted and re-uploaded, which means unreconciling previously reconciled items and repeating the entire process. If there are many to be amended, this process may need to be repeated multiple times. It would be beneficial if we could directly edit the contents of the bank statement from Xero without having to delete and re-upload it, avoiding the need to repeat the entire process.

    Hi team, with the new Bank Reconciliation report you can now enter a Bank statement ending balance.

    This means, if you don't have an imported statement balance or this doesn't match your actual bank statement balance you can enter the balance yourself, update the report and Xero will show the Calculated balance out by amount.

18. AU Payroll | Pay Items - Date driven (add start & end date)

    Can we please have the ability to add effective start and end dates against pay items. For example, a deduction may only be for 10 weeks at a set amount. Rather than having to setup multiple notes offline to remind us of this, can't we have this function setup in the payroll system so it only deducts the amount over the set period specified?

19. Xero Tracking Summary Report - Add the QUANTITY Column

    Hi there, would be awesome to be able to have a column in the Xero Tracking Summary Report which would sum up the quantities from what you entered in the quantity column in the Receive Money/Spend Money when you reconcile the transactions. This is especially important when organisations are measuring the quantities (eg. number of trips taken; number of food parcels handed out) are used with Xero. As it takes a lot of time to go into each transaction and see what the quantities are to get the group total, this feature would save people a lot of time.

    *Screenshot 1 attached shows the product idea requested
    *Screenshot 2 shows the quantity column where the quantity was originally entered
    on the "Receive Money" transaction.

    Thanks for your feedback, Sadie. We don't have any direct plans for a PDF / Print shortcut atm but we'll feel out the interest from your idea here and let you know if there's any progress.
