  1. Ability to compare a custom period, with the same period the year before.

    For example be able to compare a profit and loss for July 2021 - March 2022, with the same period the year before, not just the 9 months before.

    There seems to be the function to do this with a year-to-date profit and loss, however if you want to have an end date prior to today then it doesn't seem to work.

    Hi Rebecca, we've revamped comparative periods in the new reports to provide greater flexibility. Allowing you to customise what comparisons show when running date range reports. 

    So now, you can compare with the same exact period ( eg 10 days), months, quarters or years. Dive on in for a try and let us know what you think! 


  2. You've created these great packs or ability to create one, but for majority of businesses when they are reporting for the month that was in a meeting they want a bank reconciliation or a transactions listing with opening bank balance, transactions and closing bank balances!
    Can we please have this as an option to add into the Report Packs.

  3. Link the new Account Transaction report so it appears when drilling down from another report or the Dashboard watchlist.

    Clicking on an amount within a report or the Dashboard watchlist goes to the old Account Transactions report. When this version of the report is no longer available Xero have advised that drilling down to see transactions will only work on a report that has been published. It seems wrong to need to publish a report to be able to access this basic function.

    Hi Delwyn, back to confirm that redirects from the Account watchlist will now take you to the new version of reports. 😁

    Which one will be driven  by the detail in my earlier response. 

  4. Could you reintroduce a very important item in the new Account Transactions reports the Opening Balances in the Asset / Liability accounts. The Old report has this feature and it is essential for reconciling accounts such as Super Payable, PAYG Payable. In view of Old reports being discontinued next year, this will be a major issue.

    Hi everyone - We've just released an update to Account Transactions report and added a Contact field! 


    Next time you open this report you should see 'Contact' as an option in Columns, Grouping/Summarising and Filtering - See an example below and enjoy making use of this new field and adding another level of insights to your reporting in Xero 🙂 

  6. URGENT- when editing Adviser year reports there are highlighted areas that we could select & un-highlight in the past. This ability was removed during the recent reports upgrade (only Bold, Underline & Italic remain). This means highlighted areas have to be completely re-typed as un-highlighted text & then the original text deleted - wasting a lot of time on re-creating information already available.

    Thank you for engaging here, Nick.

    We recently launched an ability to create notes for the Management report pack by clicking 'Insert content' at the bottom of your page then you'll see 'Enable Add Note' option from there. This feature is available in the newer version of the main report pack which includes, Executive Summary, Profit & Loss, Cash Summary, Balance Sheet, Aged Receivables Summary, and Aged Payable Summary reports. You’ll also be able to annotate any figure in your report and link to a text-block for further information too.

    I’ll mark this idea as ‘delivered’ now. Feel free to explore more ideas or raise a new idea here.

    Hey Leigh! I want to let you know that we've recently enhanced both our Receivable and Payable Detail reports. Where you can see when the invoice or bill was paid through the 'Last payment date' column.

    Thank you for submitting your idea here, I'll mark this as delivered now 🙂.

  9. The Executive Summary is a very informative report. However, to get meaningful trends, it needs to compare more than just the previous month to determine the true direction of the trend. A three or 6 month trend (or agianst planned numbers for the period under review) would add greatly to the value of the report

  10. "I would really like to see you add a reporting function that has

    1. individual PNL for each month in the current year - Jul/Aug/Sep etc
    2. a YTD total for the current year, and
    3. a YTD total for the previous year to enable comparison with 2.

    As an adviser to many small businesses this is the report that I (& I expect most advisers) are really looking for to help our clients

    The current reporting does not enable us to have the management discussions with clients as easily as it should.

    All the information is within the software, so it is…

  11. I think it would be beneficial to be able to add commentary to the management report so that variance analysis can be explained to the owner of the business / interested parties (i.e. investors, banks) rather than just presenting a set of figures.

    We want to update you that we've launched the new management report pack to all regions, which you'll have the ability to add commentary to your report through a text block to accompany tabular report data, or a whole blank page containing text - see our article here for more information.

    That being said, I'll mark this thread as 'delivered' 😄.

  12. On the management report it would be nice to have more flexibility with the way it is laid out. On the front cover for example we would like out logo to sit in the middle of the page at the bottom whereas at the moment the logo doesn't even go on the front cover.

    Also we would like to be able to enter a footer on to the front cover which doesn't sppear on the rest of the pages.

    Is this something that we can do that we just don't know about? If not please can you look at including…

    I want to update you that the new management report pack is now released to all regions! You're now able to apply all of the customisations which are available in our other new style reports, to the same reports within a pack. 


    In saying that, I'll move this thread as 'delivered' 🙂.

  14. Would you please create a General Ledger Detailed Report so that we can have a nice Xero standardized report instead of having to export to excel and print from there.

    We need to send this report to clients, and it isn't very attractive at the moment - printing from excel.

    Hi everyone, 100% appreciate everyone wanting to hear from us in the idea here! We've made big strides with reporting across Xero and have more improvements in store.

    We've put a lot of focus into the Account Transactions report, and with options to include all the detailed columns as the General Ledger Detailed report, as well as have a running balance you can create the report you're after in Xero, or exported to be able to share with clients.

    Once set up, Save your report as custom, and if you think you'll often access it you can Favourite to jump on in, anytime! 😊

  15. Would love for the Cash Summary report to be able to be sorted by Account Code (like the P&L can).

    Hi everyone, we're now happy to say that the enhanced Cash summary report is now released, which has the ability to sort by account code.

    To do this, you can click 'More', then tick 'Account codes' checkbox. Once this is done, you can also save the report as 'Custom' if using account code is your preferred layout, so the next time you open the report, you don't need to tick the checkbox again - see our article for more information.

    Thank you for your feedback here everyone, we'll mark this request as delivered so the votes will return to you all 🙂.

    Hi community, rounding back on the idea here we have just released the new General Ledger Detail report which includes the ability to view by Date and now also add Journal ID as a column within the report. 

    Once you've got the report set up how you like, save it as Custom to return to this same layout whenever you need. 🙂

    Hello community, we’re happy to let you know that you’re now able to add a date paid column in the Receivable Invoice Summary report. To see the date paid column in this report, you’ll need to tick the ‘Last Payment Date’ option under Columns.

    Thank you for raising this idea, we’ll now move this to ‘delivered’ status

  18. It would be really helpful to be able to amend the account codes and tracking codes etc on an invoice that has been paid (this is possible for a bill!). It's quite cumbersome to unhook the spending and re-reconcile, especially when items need amending that are quite complicated
