Reporting - Automatic generation and emailing of reports
Automatically send email reports every month.
Purpose: Users can set up recurring reports to the dedicated person consistently at the same date.

Hey everyone, thanks for all the votes and feedback on this idea! Our product teams have definitely taken note and understand the effort involved in automatic report generation and sending.
While it's something we see as valuable in the long run, it's not currently on our development roadmap with a specific timeframe. We're still keen to hear from those of you who would find this feature helpful, so please keep the conversation and votes coming. We'll be sure to update you if our plans change.

Schedule reports to be run and sent to another user (via email) on a specific date.

Hi Xero Admin
Looking at this issue has there been any movement from 18 Dec 2023 based on community feedback?
Thank you -

I still can't find a paid app integration that allows me to do this using Xero accounts and tracking categories. Please consider it as an essential business requirement. Thanks

How/why is it not there already!?? -

This would be a brilliant feature to enable us to send reports to key individuals in the organisation without having to give access to the reports module.

This is something that is needed. Various regulatory requirements would be easily helped if this was in play.
What we need is
1) The ability to generate a report on a schedule.
2) Specify a format and the parameters.
3) Specify an email address / Xero user that it goes to. Note - if this could be a different user or a user external to Xero, that would be cool. quite frankly I would pay for a "reports" user.Basically, allow a "Set this report to be emailed" option.

I need to send weekly reports to 40 individual budget holders (we're a school, so each subject has a separate budget) to enable them to see how their actual expenditure is tracking against budget. It's not feasible to do this manually, so I am using an add-on, which isn't entirely satisfactory.
It's frustrating when work is done on Xero to 'improve' on existing functionality when there are still basic features - like scheduled reporting - missing.

Would like the ability to schedule the automation of reports and be emailed to staff. For example, schedule each Monday morning to have a WIP Aged Ledger report processed and emailed to staff.

Of course, this is still of interest! It is a basic feature and frankly it is remarkable that Xero does not offer it.

For our US operation we use Zoho Books for Invoice generation and sync back in Xero (the standard accounting system for our group).
For my weekly US sales meeting, we use Automatic generation of reports from Zoho Books to enable sales meeting attendees with weekly results for review.
For my weekly marketing meeting, I have to manually login and generate a marketing spend report from Xero to be circulated. Same for the monthly group finance review (but for 3 companies).
The lack of automated reports in Xero costs me atleast a day a year. I wonder what its costing the entire Xero customer base?
Attached is the screen shot of the interface from Zoho Books.
Frustrated!

Automated reporting is very much needed, I was so surprised when I found out Xero didn't have it!

Yes, we need this important feature on Xero as we are generating few Xero reports and emailing them manually to the relevant staff.

I can't believe Xero doesn't understand the need for this, surely it's a fairly simple development!!

Very much needed

This would be great, and very easy to setup. PLus it avoids having to navigate around permission structures for certain data.

We have this request as well, very surprised it is not in the platform already.
