Xero App - Show Product & Services on mobile app
On the Xero mobile app, it would be great to be able to search Products & Services. If a customer wants a price on an inventory item, I have to create an invoice or quote, then add an item to see a price. A Product & Services link off the Dashboard would be very helpful.

UK Payroll - Payroll specific tracking
Why can't the payroll be separate to Xero? I can't allocate Employee Groups because I've already got two tracking categories in use!

Batch Payment - Allow the "Reference" field in bill payments to overwrite the reference field in the batch payments file
Currently when creating a batch payment, the bank payment details fields (Particulars / code / reference) are all drawn from the payee's Xero contact details page.
payment of some bills require an invoice number in the bank payment reference field (rather than just an account number), and this also helps to track which invoices are paid for companies with frequent / varied billing + auditing bank transaction list records.
It would be great if either:
a) For a specific bill, Xero reads the invoice number and places this into the "reference field" within the bill payments screen (usually works) AND THEN this overwrites the default reference field for that contact in creation of the batch payment line
OR
b) When entering a bill - once the contact is loaded, that the default bank fields for that contact are presented and editable on the bill screen (Combining multiple payments to the same contact in batch payments would have to be disabled for this to work)Currently when creating a batch payment, the bank payment details fields (Particulars / code / reference) are all drawn from the payee's Xero contact details page.

Bank Reconciliation - Rank the best banks for reconciliation
Make the banks (like American Express) see how they need to fix their systems. It's not your fault transactions don't match up. The banks need to improve their data.

UK Payroll - Correct rounding when employee earnings are split
There is an issue in payroll where you will get a rounding error due to other pay items such as Leave/Holiday.
e.g. Salary £12,570 per year
Paid in May the calculations are as follows:
1685.692935=£956.41308 Rounded: £956.41
85.692935=£45.54348 Rounded: £45.54
8*5.692935=£45.54348 Rounded: £45.54Total = £1047.50084 Rounded Total: £1047.49 instead of £1047.50
This should be corrected somehow to use the correct number before rounding as the final calculation. The rounding can either be ignored from the line items, added to the first line item (the total pay) or added as a new line item specifically for the rounding error.
I would also like the option to just disable the Leave/Holiday line items on the payslip as the annual pay per month is the same regardless of when holiday was taken. This would be an alternative fix to this issue.

Invoices - Add "Yesterday" to date selection
Thank you for the 'Today - tomorrow' options in date selections but we would really benefit, and use regularly, a 'Yesterday' option given we often Invoice customers 'after' they have collected goods etc.

Journals - Ability to access the journal entry from each transaction
I would love the ability to view the Journal entry created by each transaction, from the transaction itself (without having to leave the transaction to pull a journal report). QBO has this option and I find it very useful.

Top 5 overdue customers
In the Sales overview screen, we can see the top 5 Customers owing the most. Is it possible to add an option to change this to the top 5 customers who have the highest overdue balance?
2 votesThere's no way to change the order of the customers owing the most to sort by overdue on the Sales Overview, Chris.
The left column will show the total owing and the right column will show the figure overdue.
However, from this screen you can click to Send Statements where you'll be able to view Overdue amounts high to low (if not shown automatically just click the Overdue column header. 😊

Reporting Section under Ideas
Financial reporting is a critical business need of any business using software. Its strange that Xero dont have this as a catagory under Small business ideas. Can we add "Reports" as a catagory. Xero is poor compared to quickbooks now so need to udnerstand if its ever going to change or whether we need to move. I will only be able to gauge this if there are lots or zero user ideas on reporting (perhaps its only me that thinks its "ok but not great"
1 voteThanks for submitting your idea here, Robert. Appreciate where you're coming from. Right now, the structure of product ideas categories is similar to the blue navigation within your Xero org so we typically have reporting ideas under Accounting features. Understand how it mightn't be the most intuitive design atm though and this is something that we're considering making updates to. I'll keep you looped in on any change for this here. 😊

Quote Report - Change Invoice Ref and Date columns to 'Quote'
Reports - Quote Summary pulls incorrect column references. Xero dont accept this is an error and think its a product enhancement.
Currently when you produce a quote report you cannot have a column titled Quote Ref or "Quote date". Xero has a bug which is using "Invoice Ref" and Invoice Date". Obviously for customers of our business they get annoyed that we are sending them reports implying a quote has been accepted and invoiced rather than purely pending. Such a basic error in Xero but they just dont accept the error1 vote -
NZ GST - Export return with heading 'GST return' + period of the return
GST Return Export
It is annoying that the new GST return layout does not export the essential fact that it is a GST return and the period. The new GST return now just exports the business name and the end of period date.
It needs to have the words "GST Return" or similar.

AU Payroll - Restrict which earnings rate an employee can select in timesheets
Ability to restrict which pay items an employee can view in Xero Me to only those that apply to that employee. Without this ability employees sometimes choose pay items that do not apply to them. Most often this is picked up at the authorisation stage but why allow the possibility for error in the first place.

AU Payroll - Fixed amount leave requests for employs on an accrued leave balance
Currently, for monthly employees, Xero does not take into consideration the fact that they have been set up to be paid the same amount each month, therefore the days in the month are meaningless from a pay perspective. Unfortunately, this means that the basis leave accrues on to work out how many hours a public holiday/personal/annual leave day should be when leave is entered is also meaningless. Instead of defaulting to 7.6 (or 8) hours/day leave taken, it does a calculation based on the number of working days in a month. So if someone is being paid on the basis of a 7.6 hour day & leave is also accruing on that basis, but they then take leave in a month that has 22 days, the default for the day's leave will be 7.27 hours.
Obviously, this can be overridden, but when someone doesn't know that this needs to be done, the leave taken is nonsense.

AU Payroll - Historical Payslip Report (bulk download)
Create a report to show all payslips for an employee for a given time period. Currently these have to be downloaded one by one.
550 votesHey community, 👋 thanks for all your support on this idea, I’m pleased to let you know that this has been delivered for UK Payroll initially! It includes the ability to select the date range you’re interested in, and check boxes to either select all results or multiple. Then you can download your selection as a single PDF of multiple payslips.
For users in AU and NZ we know this is a highly anticipated feature, however to be open this is not any immediate plans for those teams so we’ll leave this idea open. While we appreciate it doesn’t help employers needing bulk downloads, employees can be invited into the Xero Me portal to self-serve payslip collection.

New invoicing - Attach .cdr (CorelDraw) and .B2K (Braille2000) files
I run a braille transcription business and must submit braille files along with invoice. I would like to send all from once source, Xero, rather than in a separate email. Attach .cdr (CorelDraw) and .B2K (Braille2000) files (other file types, too).

Navigation - Make invoice lists available as sub menus
When depositing checks, I often search for the customer name or invoice number and deposit ONE CHECK AT A TIME. While this is less efficient than batch deposits, it works fine for our low volume of checks (most customers pay by CC or ACH now). That said, it would be more convenient to navigate to business/invoices/awaiting payment in one step than navigating to invoices and then clicking on the awaiting payment tab in a second step. IOW, you should show the sub-navigation within invoices so you can go to the exact tab you want.
