How could Xero improve the homepage?

Firstly, for the price point, it would be valuable to have stronger tools for margin analysis on COGS. The underlying data is already in the system, but there’s limited ability to run flexible reports to properly evaluate performance based on how we’ve coded transactions.

Secondly, an inventory function would add significant value. Each order entered effectively represents an inventory movement, yet there’s no simple way to load, adjust, or manage stock levels within the system. This would be particularly helpful for small businesses.

Finally, in the new dashboard, it would be great to have clearer visibility of invoices due by month. Currently, the left-hand panel groups invoices across multiple months (e.g. April and May), which makes it harder to quickly assess what’s coming due in the next period and plan accordingly.

Thanks for considering this feedback, may even help the broken share price
