  1. I propose introducing a pre-profile pop-up in Xero XPM to provide immediate access to critical client information, including linked contacts, billing references, and direct hyperlinks to individual contacts. This feature would also allow for the configuration of custom reminders, ensuring that key client details and actionable prompts are prominently displayed to enhance staff efficiency and client service.

  3. When I started with Xero, we had a lovely monthly Zoom call with local Xero Accounting & Bookkeeping Partner Practices. Topics would be presented, but also we would exchange ideas for best use practices and workarounds and how to leverage Xero tools. We could discuss troubleshooting and compliance, etc. It was a great way as a business owner to network with other Xero-focused practices in my area, support one another, and share information. It would be great to see these come back one day!

  4. Improvements to the CIS module.

    There are a couple of issues with the CIS module that we'd love to see improved.

    1. Xero doesn't automatically recognise if a transaction submitted on a return has been changed after submission. It would be better if submitted returns were 'saved' in some way, either for manual review for amendments, or, better still, automatic reconciliation by Xero.

    2. Please can you show an audit log of CIS payment and deduction statements sent including date, time, email address they were sent to and copy of the P+D statement

    3.Overpayments made to subcontractors are currently omitted from Xero,…

  5. I’d like to suggest a feature in Xero where AI automatically checks the validity of ABNs on bills and expenses.

    When importing bills into Xero: AI could scan the document, detect the ABN, and validate it automatically. If the ABN is invalid or not current, the system would flag it. I believe XBert offers this option.

    When coding bank feed transactions, creating spend money, or entering bills: A dedicated ABN field or pop-up box could appear, with a one-click button to check the ABN directly within the screen (instead of leaving Xero to check manually).

    Automation benefit: By removing the…

  8. Looking for a report that identifies clients who have registered for GST or PAYG with the ATO but have not lodged any Activity Statements (AS). This needs to be linked to the ATO. (some of these clients are new to needing to complete AS).

    We are currently using MYOB for this feature.
    Attached is a sample (this report does to PAYG etc)

  9. We should be able to customise this invoice date order as a default setting, it opens in no order and having to click on the Due Date twice every time to get the invoices in order of latest to oldest to check before billing on every client is a real pain and waste of time when we have to do it so often.
    We would appreciate you looking at making this a customisable setting very soon, thank you

    We appreciate you sharing your valuable idea and identifying the changes that matter most to you. Your suggestion has been reviewed and is now open for community support. The next step is getting votes! Be sure to share this with colleagues who would benefit so they can add their vote. The community can also comment to provide further insight on how your idea could enhance their Xero experience.

  10. Please add the ability to enter payment details when posting invoices via Hubdoc.

    At the moment, if an invoice has already been paid (e.g. by cash or a personal card), I have to post it in Hubdoc and then go into Xero to add the payment manually. This is especially common for my café and restaurant clients who pay many invoices in cash, and it creates a lot of extra work.

    Being able to record the payment at the point of upload would save a huge amount of time.

    Hi there! thanks for sharing this great idea. We love hearing what would make a real difference for you.


    We could see that having the ability to record the paid invoice from within Hubdoc would be useful. Now it's over to the community to show their support. To help get the ball rolling, feel free to share the idea with any colleagues who'd find it useful – every vote helps!


    We'd also love to see others jump in the comments to explain how this feature would help them out.

  11. When you select option "D" at "Have you applied an exemption, rollover or additional discount?" of a CGT worksheet, the return should automatically grey out/disregard discount as a CGT method because you cannot discount a capital gain if you are using option D which is the 15 year retirement exemption. At the moment it automatically discounts the gain and causes an error which does not explain that you need to change the gain to other

  13. Prefill - when we prefill a return from the ATO it brings in lots of information but doesn't update the due date for lodgement. The date currently appears to prefill from client details.

    Can we please have Prefill bring in the ATO due date for the return?

  14. It would be great if when a client completes their BGLiD verification, that that data can go back to XPM and complete the Client Verification section. Would save a lot of time & reduce the potential for entries being missed.

  15. I would like a field in Hubdoc to enter the supplier ABN number, that would then pull through to the ABN Field in the Contact in Xero please. This will be a huge help when bulk reviewing ABNs and GST Registration status. If the field could be clearly seen when processing documents it would be helpful so we can just double check against the document when processing.

    Hi there!


    Thanks for this fantastic suggestion. We can definitely see how an ABN field in Hubdoc that syncs to Xero would be a huge help.


    Having that ABN visible while processing documents would make it much easier for accountants and bookkeepers to confirm supplier details and apply the correct GST.

    The next step is to gather more community support! If you know any colleagues who would also benefit from this, please encourage them to add their vote. We'd love for them to share their own experiences in the comments, as hearing how this feature would improve different workflows is incredibly valuable.

  16. Keep the Salutation where it was before.
    and be able to upload client photo in their Profile.

  17. It would be really helpful if invoice templates could adjust automatically based on client type, instead of having to create and assign multiple templates manually.

    For example:
    1. Individuals and Partnerships would include the 'Attention' field, but not include the 'Contact Name' field
    2. Company invoices would include the 'Attention' field, but not the 'Contact Name' field
    3. Trusts, SMSFs, and Charities would include both the 'Attention' field and the 'Contact Name' field

    This would save time, reduce errors, and ensure invoices are always addressing the legal entity correctly for each client type.

    Thanks for considering this improvement!

  19. On the Fixed Asset Register can there be a column for showing Tracking Catergories?

    We deal with clients in the Hospitality Industry and a portion of them operate multiple sites.

    It would be handy to have an option in the Fixed Asset Register so we can quickly identify which assets belong to Pub A, Pub B, Pub C etc.

    The inclusion of a filter to only show the Fixed Assets of a particular site would also be a huge benefit.

    We know that the Register can be exported to Excel which will show the Tracking Catergories but something within Xero…
