  1. Could it be possible to create a video to explain about the particular features of the Xero function in their respective page? I am trying to better understand visually on how to navigate and use a particular feature within Xero.

    If not at the very least, link me back to the lesson where I can get on the feature in the Xero Advisor course? It would be helpful for me to revisit the topic.

  4. Being able to link several jobs with the one invoice raised in Xero blue. When issuing through Practice Ignition, it only allows you to allocate to one invoice in XPM. Moving the timesheets is clunky and inaccurate

  5. When you go into a client and enter the jobs tab, there is no job for that client even though they are part of the group that there is a job for and that client is included within that job. The job only shows for the single client where the job is created.

    The jobs tab already includes sections for active jobs and archived jobs. It should also show a section for jobs assigned to other clients within its group.

  7. From the account transactions report for the Rounding account, clicking a transaction just loads the dashboard, it would be ideal if this took you to the transaction which includes the rounding adjustment, i.e. the detail for the reconciled bank statement line

  8. Would like to see the ability to turn on mandatory notes for billable jobs rather than optional. Happy for this to be turned on/off at a practice level.

    This will ensure that time is being recorded correctly against client jobs and making the team member accountable for time allocated.

    This means no missing information and clients can be billed correctly.

  9. In many accounting software platforms, the established workflow for onboarding a new individual client and preparing their Income Tax Return leverages ATO pre-fill data efficiently.

    This process typically involves:

    • Adding the new client to the ATO portal.
    • Downloading the pre-fill XML file directly from the ATO portal.
    • Saving the downloaded XML file to a local directory.
    • Commencing a new ITR within the software by importing this ATO pre-fill file. This crucial step often includes the ability to search for the new client by surname, create a necessary client reference and automatically populate the return with all available ATO data, thereby…

  11. Allow CSV/XML Import into Xero Tax Returns from External Form Tools
    Please add the ability to import tax return data into Xero Tax from external tools like Content Snare using a structured CSV or XML—similar to ATO pre-fill.

    This would let us auto-fill returns from client forms, reduce manual entry, and speed up processing. A simple mapping template or import tool would make a big difference.

    Thanks for considering!

    Thanks for submitting your idea on Xero Product Idea's. We appreciate you taking your time to share changes that would be most meaningful to you.

    It'd be good to also understand the particular external systems/tools you're using that you're wanting to import from.

  15. Client Merge popup box needs to be expandable. It wants me to select which client that will merge into from the other (which is irreversible) but I can't expand the popup screen or hover over the fields to see what is written in full to know which one to select.

  16. Aged Receivables Detail Report - could the notes for invoices be included as a tick box under the columns. This would allow a quick reference point to see how many times the customer has been contacted regarding requests for payment and then allow for the conversation with the client re debt collection processes.

  17. Reinstate the 'Compare With' drop down.

    The key benefit of the old General Ledger Summary report was it's ability to show the net movement for multiple periods.

    Xero is now without a single report to perform this core function.

    Hi Ami, would this be for a repeat invoice template? Or could you provide a bit more detail about your how your business would use this, or a typical scenario you need this feature for?

  19. I would love to have the ability to define and enforce firm-wide custom file naming conventions for reports generated using custom templates within Practice Reporting and Xero HQ.

    Currently, exported reports are named using a generic default (e.g., CompanyName_ReportName.pdf), with no option to set naming rules at the firm-level. For firms managing multiple clients and maintaining standardized file systems, this can create inconsistency.

    My ideal solution would allow each custom report template to include a predefined naming convention which would be applied automatically when reports are exported.

    For example, we prefer:

    Balance Sheet MM.YY – ClientName
    Income Statement MoM MM.YY…

  20. Currently hubdoc suggests that a document is a Credit Note and to check before proceeding. Can this be the same when a document has Statement written on it. I find that statements are often processed as invoices causing duplicate payments within Xero

    Good to hear that you find the Credit Note warning useful, Gayle. We don't have any immediate plans for adding the same for statements but we'll get a feel for the interest from your idea here.
