Homepage | Account Watchlist | Gain/Loss Colour Coded Against Budget
Would love to a visual queue on the accounts watchlist to show if the target has been met compared to the budget. Could the actuals for the account have the font colour coded depending on the budget variance.

Homepage - Timesheet Summary widget
Would love a widget that shows the leave requests sorted by closest leave date to later leave dates with a filter option to adjust to be able to show just pending approval, just approved or all.
Another widget that would be helpful is a summary of timesheets submitted for the current pay period/ next due pay run.
2 votesHi Tamara, thanks for sharing this suggestion. Having a Timesheet Summary widget available directly on the dashboard sounds like it could make it much easier to keep an eye on submitted hours and stay on top of approvals without needing to navigate into Payroll.
To make sure we can track interest clearly for each request, we keep ideas to one feature per post. Since you also mentioned employee leave requests, I’ve located an existing idea for a Leave Request widget and added your support there so it can continue to gather votes and feedback.
I’ve moved this post to Gaining Support so we can focus on the Timesheet Summary idea here and track how helpful others would find having this visibility on their dashboard.

Homepage | Tasks - Add CIS monthly return reminder
ADD CIS MONTHLY RETURN TO HOME PAGE
2 votesThanks for your feedback, Nathan. We'll start to get a sense of the community support for this from your idea here.

Homepage | Bills Awaiting payment - Filter out expense claims
Filter out expense claims from Bills Awaiting Payment
I input my own money occasionally into the business & don't require paying back, so the expense claim is left "open" & shows up on Bills awaiting payment - thus confusing the amount owing to Bills I have outstanding.

Homepage - Add shortcut to create repeating invoice
Shortcut to add recurring invoice via a simple UX - just add a drop down next to the 'New invoice' button. Similar to what you already have in the Sales overview page.
2 votesHi everyone, thanks for sharing this idea! We can see how having a “Create Repeating Invoice” shortcut right on the dashboard would make managing recurring invoicing faster and more seamless.
Currently, you navigate through the Invoices menu to reach the Repeating tab, which adds extra steps. I’ve moved this idea to Gaining Support so our product teams can track interest and understand how much this shortcut could help streamline regular invoicing.

Homepage - Include the number of billable expenses outstanding in the tasks list
It would be great if the number of billable expenses - outstanding (as per the report of the same name) could be included in the tasks widget - ie expenses to be oncharged. Currently I have to run the report to check if there are any oncharges to complete, but it would be great if I could just see the number on the list. We use this feature for almost all of the organisations we look after (20+) and it would save time and ensure we are oncharging more promptly.
2 votesThanks for your feedback on this and sharing how this would be useful to your flows, Lisa. We're taking feedback about this widget on board and considering what additional items would be most useful to customers. I'll be sure to share any updates if there is progress for adding billable expenses to this view.

Homepage - Adaptive layout & zoom to fit for monitors with different aspect ratios
VISUAL: Adaptive layout & zoom to fit?
I use my widescreen monitor to use two windows side-by-side, but then the Xero window has a lot of negative space around the tabs (see image) and the only way I can find to make this larger is to zoom in the browser, but that makes all the browser items zoomed, which I don't want. If I enlarge the Xero tab, the layout adjusts to a sweet spot, but that also doesn't fit nicely on full screen, and I end up clicking between things more than is efficient, so it should ideally sit…
3 votesHi!

Homepage | Watchlist - ability to colour code
Making the watchlist more customisable. Would love to colour code based on under budget, approaching budget, over budget for easy management of spending.

Add bank account to homepage
Where has the "add bank account to homepage" option gone? It's very difficult to find now

folders
It would be helpful to merge like-cards into one Parent card. The Parent Card could have a customized title that makes sense to the business. It would be intuitive if we could merge cards under a Parent Card by dragging like-cards together... similar to how you can merge apps to create a folder in the Apple iPhone. In Trello (free version), I like the way you can see the title of the Parent Card, with the Child Cards stacked in mini-card style. You could just give the most critical info on that Child Card (i.e., name of bank account, #…

Homepage | Bank account - Add year to the date format
Add the year to the date that is showing on the bank account widget. It gets confusing sometimes. Having 15 Feb 2026 would be easier than Feb 15.
2 votesAppreciate users have differing preferences in how they'd like dates to be formatted in Xero, Leanne. We don't have any plans for changing this at present but will get a better sense of the wider interest from the community here.

Homepage - Inventory widget that shows when stock is low
Have the graph for the home screen with the inventory stock and flagging items with low stock.
7 votesThanks for your idea here, Sergii. Really good to hear what our customers would find most useful to get a visual of from the homepage.
We're beginning to track the interest for an Inventory widget that'd show low stocks from your idea here and I'll share if there are any updates.

Homepage | Widget for recently paid bills
Could we have more widgets to add - recently paid bills would be great
2 votesThanks for your feedback, Paul. Good to hear the different details that our customers would find most helpful at a glance. While we don't have plans for adding a recently paid bills widget like the invoices one just at this time we'll start to track interest in this here and I'll update you if there's any news.

Homepage - Show recent payments received from customer
Widget - Recent Invoice Payments.
Show payment value from customer rather than individual invoices. Recent Payment Received would be more helpful than 5 x £10 from Bloggs & Co
2 votesHi Sharon, thanks for sharing this suggestion! We understand that seeing payments received from customers, rather than individual invoices, would make it much easier to track cash flow and acknowledge payments at a glance
At the moment, you can use the Bank Reconciliation summary or check invoice History and Notes, but a dedicated homepage widget with aggregated payment values would be more convenient. We’ve moved this idea to Gaining Support so we can track interest and share with our product teams.

Homepage - Display the total dollar value of "Awaiting Approval" bills at the top of the Bills widget
In the "Bills to Pay" widget, include the bills "Awaiting Approval" $value at the top of the widget, in bigger font, so it's more visible
2 votesHi Geoff, thanks for the suggestion. We understand that seeing the “Awaiting Approval” dollar value only at the bottom of the “Bills to Pay” widget can make it harder to spot at a glance. Moving this figure to the top and using a larger font would make it much easier to track upcoming cash requirements and make faster financial decisions.
We’ve moved this idea to Gaining Support so we can track interest and share with our product teams how improving visibility on the dashboard could help you stay on top of accounts payable.

Users & Setup - Automatically redirect to the previous page after a session timeout and re-login
At the moment if not all tasks have been completed in a work day, opening up the browser window again from where you left off will log you out. When you log in again, you are diverted to the homepage with no way of clicking back to go back to the page you were on. This is a massive waste of time, please allow us to restore our tabs which had things like custom reports and other things we started working on.
2 votesHi everyone, we understand that being sent back to the homepage after a session timeout can interrupt your workflow, especially when you’re in the middle of a specific report or transaction. It can be a bit inconvenient to lose your place and have to navigate back, and we completely get how that affects your productivity.
Some community members have mentioned ways to work around this, like keeping an eye on the session timeout or using browser bookmarks for deep links. At the same time, we agree that a smoother experience that automatically returns you to your last page would be really helpful.
We’ve moved this idea to Gaining Support so we can track interest and show our product teams how this “return to page” functionality could save you time and make your workflow easier.

Customer List with
List of Customers - Incoming and Overdue Invoices
It would be great to have a widget that displays a list of customers that have a currently pending payment. It would also be even better to have a widget that displays a list of customers with currently overdue invoices, showing the amount of overdue invoices for each client and and total amount overdue for each client. I am thinking an abbreviated view of the Contacts>Customers list.

Homepage | Invoice and Bills widgets - Option to make smaller
Make invoices to pay & bills boxes smaller these are the two functions I use most & now have to scroll down every time i want to use them
2 votesHiya team, happy to share an update as this is something we're currently working on. Our team are developing the ability to reduce the size of these widgets and more control of the data shown.
I'll round back to let you know once this goes out 😊
