New Invoicing - Description Box Defined
New Invoicing - Description Box Defined
It would be great if the new invoice description field had a defined box around it like the rest of the row does. The old invoice does and it looks cleaner. I find myself second guessing if those descriptions are in the correct place because it looks like they all run together.
4 votesThanks for confirming, Nicki. I can confirm I've shared this back with the team. We are looking at further improvements to the invoicing grid, so I'll let you know here if there's any news for this.

AU Payroll - Upgrades to Xero me app for more customisation
We are long term users of Xero and find many aspects of its functionality make our accounting functions easy! This is not the case in terms of Payroll entry….The Xero Me App does not come close to meeting the needs of a small business like ours….and I am sure we are not entirely unique!
Our business is predominantly made up of casual employees who work different hours from day to day/week to week. Many of our employees also drive vehicles and require kilometre reimbursement.
The biggest challenge we have is the accurate recording of employee hours…unfortunately, we have issues around inaccurate recording of hours - most commonly leading to additional time claimed by employees (just 5 -15 mins here and there…but it adds up!)
We would like to be able to have our employees ‘clock in and clock out’ in real time.The other issue that we find unmanageable in the Xero Me App is the entry of kilometres for re-imbursement. Many of our staff use their vehicles for deliveries and require reimbursement at a per km $ rate. There is no current facility to do this by the employee, via your current timesheet functionality.
We hope, as has occurred with many other areas of within Xero, that there may be some additional focus at your end to create a payroll interface that we could use. We currently have no option aside from recording staff hours on a manual timesheet and having a payroll person enter the hours & kms into Xero, other than paying quite substantial additional $ for a companion app.
We hope this issue will receive some consideration!

NZ tax- Student Loan overseas borrower repayments
Overseas Borrower Student Loan repayments have different payment dates (30 September and 31 March), there is currently no functionality within Xero Tax (NZ) to manage these payments. I understand it is not possible for the system to calculate the repayment amounts as these are determined based on the loan balance, but if there could be an override amount like for Provisional Tax that would be useful, instead of having to track these borrowers manually.

Chart of Accounts - Duplicate existing account
Being new to the business, new to finance and bookkeeping and even newer to Xero we are starting from scratch with our "Chart of Accounts". As we grow and want to create sub accounts for clearer reporting - having to manually 'add account' each time, and reselecting all the appropriate account settings is very time consuming, especially for a novice like me. Being able to right click and choose to duplicate an existing account and then be prompted to rename/renumber it would be so much quicker.
My work around is currently to open up the existing account - take a picture on my phone (of all the settings and set up) close that account, click 'add account' and then replicate the account settings, eg set the type, description, new numbering code and tax etc. If I don't take a picture on my phone I will later find out I didn't pick the right sequential code number and so have to go back and correct it, or the descriptions don't match confusing other members of the team later down the line. You name it, I've accidentally done it.
Duplicate or copy & paste seems like a standard process needed in pretty much every electronic platform out there - it would play a big part here in 'Chart of Accounts'.
Or am I missing something?

Dashboard - Tax & reporting to include when an activity statement is ready to prepare
For the existing Tax & reporting tile on the dashboard, it would be good if the Activity Statement included an indicator for when the next one is ready to be prepared and submitted.

Profit & Loss Report - Compare > 200 tracking categories, and bulk select
Thanks for adding the new "compare tracking categories" in the new Profit & Loss Report.
However, even with this additional development the new version of Profit & Loss Report requires you to manually add each tracking category one by one. Having the feature of "select all" reinstated as the old version did would be really helpful.
Having limited tracking categories to 200 isn’t helpful, previously Xero was able to search across an unlimited number of tracking categories, but only report on the active ones.
I’m sure there are many users that have more than 200 tracking categories (not always active but not suitable to archive). Having to manually select each tracking category isn’t an efficient use of time.
Please review this development and align the new version Profit & Loss to the old version functionality.

Projects - Ability to assign to estimated expense category from the bills screen
When assigning a bill line to a project, it would be good to also be able to select the Estimated Expense category from this same screen rather than having to manually add from within the Project. Or at least be able to bulk assign from the Projects screen.

Bills List View - Remove 'View' column from the default layout
There is a new completely unnecessary and annoying column named "View" in the Bills reports. I can switch it off each time I open that report, but I would like to reset the default so it doesn't come up ever. To view a bill all I have to do is click into it, so the extra visual of the EYE is just very irritating. It isn't an issue with the Invoices.
2 votesSorry to hear you find the view option an irritancy, Adrienne. This was developed based on customers feedback who wanted to be able to view more intricate detail of bills on the fly without having to navigate away from the list view.
I want to be open that we don't have any plans for removing this, but will continue to track and gauge interest around this through your idea here for now.

Dashboard - Add custom shortcuts as required
It would be helpful to be able to add shortcut icons on the dashboard for all of the things you use every day instead of having to go through the dropdown menus. (similar to the way the old quickbooks used).
For example, have a way to put an "invoice" icon on the dashboard. Or add "spend money" on the dashboard. Basically have a way to add whatever shortcut icons you want as every business is different.
12 votesHi community - There are a few shortcuts that can help you get around and create transactions from many screens in Xero.
The '+' icon next to Search in the blue banner enables you to create a range of different document types, similarly there are shortcuts that can be entered in Search from the blue navigation bar that will take you to different features for example entering 'r' you can quickly select and be taken to 'All reports'
Are there other specific shortcuts you'd want to see here?

UK Payroll - Employee tab layout
Employee tab - make the layout available for users to choose between Portrait or Landscape orientation.
Since updates were made on 20.12.2024, the Landscape one (on this particular tab - Employees) did not fit on the screen. It looks like a tech error rather than an update...1 vote -

New Invoicing | Send - Copy & paste formatting
When pasting content from a Word document that has bullet points and other basic formatting, this formatting is lost and you end up with one large block of unformatted text.
All our invoices have terms and conditions pasted in depending on the application of our products. We have to switch to Classic Invoicing where the formatting functionality still works, before sending the email to the customer, .
Please resolve this urgently before phasing out Classic Invoicing.
An example image is attached with a short portion of our terms and conditions to show the non-existent formatting.
