  1. When customising the homepage view, it would be helpful to have the option to set that customised layout as the default view for all users.

    This would make sure everyone logging into the file sees the same key information and widgets to keep everyone aligned

    Thanks for sharing this here. Currently the reason for this functionality to not exist is because the home page for all users may not appear the same. In particular, the users with the same permission roles will get the same view.


    We've moved this idea to gain more support from the community. You can share this with your peers and colleagues so they can add their vote onto it as well!

  2. New layout is great now I've got used to it. I do miss the Tax and Reporting box where I had quick links to useful items such as VAT return, CIS return. Could you add this as an optional widget on the new dashboard please? Thanks.

    Hi Andrea, appreciate your sharing on how having a “Tax and Reporting” shortcut on the dashboard would make accessing tax returns and key reports quicker and simpler. Navigating through multiple menus can slow things down, especially when deadlines are looming.

    In the meantime, you can access your VAT return directly from the Tax menu on the navigation bar for quicker access.

    I’ve moved this idea to Gaining Support so we can track interest and show our product teams how much this shortcut could help make compliance tasks faster and more efficient.

  3. The "Invoices owed to you" widget NEEDS to have the "new invoice" button on top as before. What do we do with XERO besides accounting? Create invoices, and having to scroll down this widget is useless as ...... (fill in the blank). It's a very simple display change.

    Appreciate you raising this with us here, Fred.

    This is something we're monitoring feedback of and would be good to hear from others on your idea here that'd also appreciate this option further up the widget.

    As another simple way of creating an invoice there's the keyboard shortcut '/i' that'll open Search with an option to create 'New invoice'.

  4. Many of our customers require a quote before issuing us with a purchase order. The fastest way is to copy a previous quote, and to edit as required to create a new quote. If we could click on a button from the homepage rather than bring up Quotes from the sales list, it would save us much time.

    Hi everyone, thanks for the suggestion—it’s clear that having a dedicated Quotes widget with the shortcut on the dashboard would make it easier to monitor pending sales and follow up with customers quickly.

    I’ve moved this to Gaining Support so we can track interest and give our product teams visibility of how much a dashboard shortcut like this could help streamline your sales workflow.

  5. I agree. UNSUBSCRIBE DOESN'T WORK!
    I can't get off this forum....have been trying for the past month. Clicked Unubscribe to 20 or so emails to no avail. Still getting emails about homepage. Please fix it!!

    Thanks for submitting your idea on Xero Product Ideas. We appreciate you taking time to let us know how we could improve Xero for you.

    Your feedback will soon be reviewed by our Community team, and in the meantime this can begin to build support with votes from other community members.

    If you're interested to see recent releases or get a pulse on what's coming soon see The Long and Short of it. 🙂

  6. Atm the New Expenses Widget does not show any of the old/archived expense claims. My current widget is totally empty and in order to access the previous claims or even the claims that are currently outstanding, I need to revert to Classic Expenses. Only the claims submitted using the New Expenses will be visible on my Dashboard, at least this is what I hope. I believe the 2 should be talking to each other.

    Hi everyone, we appreciate some customers are still using Classic expenses, however we want to be open, there are no plans to develop a widget in the new Homepage for Classic expenses.

    You will still be able to access Classic Expenses by clicking Purchases > Expenses, where organisations that are using Classic expenses will see a banner and can select to go to Classic Expenses.

  7. Hi. Could we have a widget which provides shortcuts to the reports we've added as favourites, please?

    Hi Terry, it's great to hear your idea on how to make the dashboard work harder for you! Having your key reports front and center would make it more accessible.

    Right now, jumping into the full reports menu multiple times a day can feel a bit repetitive, especially when you rely on certain custom reports.

    For now, you can use the “Starring” feature in the Reports center. Star your favourites and they’ll appear at the top of the Reporting menu for quicker access. Some users also find it handy to bookmark report URLs in their browser for instant access.

    This idea is now Gaining Support, so the product team can see how much interest there is in more dashboard customisation.

  8. A widget for the Files section that you can drag/drop into without having to click top left, then Files.

    Thanks for sharing your idea, and letting us know the changes that matter most for you. We appreciate your suggestion for a Files widget on the dashboard with drag and drop functionality.

    The community team has reviewed this and moved it to Gaining support, which means it's now open for community votes and comments.


  9. Add a widget for tracking categories with current and prior month expenses against each or even the top 5 of each category.

    make the hope page printable to pdf and also for the user to be able to present it to a client or board.

    Great to be getting feedback from our community on the new homepage experience - we thank you for engaging with us here.

    Our product teams are staying close to what our customers are sharing back through the forums here, and we will share if there are any updates around widgets that would getting a view of tracking assignments, here.

  10. Colour options for bank accounts & credit cards so they are easily identifiable. i.e my client uses different banks with different feeds, would be great to have some colours.

  11. Provide a widget where you can drop any bill, expense or invoice, right on the homepage for Xero to analyse.

    Hi Tom and John, not a direct drag & drop to a widget on the homepage, however from the 'Bills to pay' widget you can click Add bill > Upload bills which will direct you to Bills and pre-open the upload modal. 🙂

    This isn't something we have direct plans of right now, but will get a feel of the interest from the community for the idea here.

    It'd be good to track interest in this feature for Bills and Expenses separately as widget enhancements would typically be reviewed individually. I've created a new idea for this in Expenses and added you both to this for any updates.

  12. Create a "low bandwidth" version this is now so much slower than the old page on slow internet connections 271 resource requests is just stupid for a home page and 1=nearly 50mb of resources? not everyone has fiber to the building and a 250mb/s connection.

    Hi Geoffery, thanks for sharing this! We can see how a smoother experience on slower connections would make working in Xero more seamless, especially when you’re remote or have limited internet.

    Right now, using the Xero mobile app for lighter tasks or clearing your browser cache can help speed things up, but we know a dedicated low-bandwidth mode would make day-to-day work even easier.

    I’ve moved this idea to Gaining Support so we can track interest and show our product teams how much of a difference this would make.

  13. A couple of customisable quick buttons to take you to your most frequest pages eg. invoices / purchase orders / timesheets

    Hi Ian, thanks for your feedback. We don't have plans to enable the ability to add quick access options directly to the homepage but we'll see the support your idea gets here in community.

    For the time being, you may find the keyboard shortcuts that are available handy in quickly navigating where you need. 🙂

  14. I would rather have a list of outstanding invoices (names and amounts) on the dashboard instead of a graph with the totals owed. (same layout as the recently paid invoices list which i have removed completely as its not necessary)

    Thanks for he feedback here, team. Atm we don't have any plans for surfacing your outstanding invoices as a list within the widget, however we appreciate feedback we've received around the graph and our team are working on some sizing updates that would enable you to remove the graph on both the Invoices owed to you and Bills to pay widgets. You can stay updated on this work through the idea here.

  15. Hi, on the new dashboard, I don't get or can't see an option for staff leave/holiday requests. It doesn't come up on the task lists either. I feel this might be an oversight, but this could easily be missed.

    Hi everyone, thanks for the suggestion—it’s clear that having a Leave Requests widget on the dashboard would make it much easier to see upcoming time off at a glance. We can see how this quick visibility would help managers plan staffing and stay on top of pay runs without extra navigation.

    I’ve moved this to Gaining Support so we can track interest and show our product teams how much value a dedicated homepage summary would bring to managers and business owners.


  16. A widget to show a simplified/high-level summary of profit and loss for the last 3 months, at a glance

    Turnover/sales
    Direct costs
    Gross Profit
    Salaries
    Overheads
    Net profit / PBT

    This would be really helpful for quick reference and reporting key financial measures

  19. Order of Bank Accounts used to be based on the way they were organized from the Bank Accounts page, and then each user could rearrange their Homepage widgets. Now this sorting doesn't seem to impact the way the Homepage is sorted.

    AND, if new accounts are added, not only does the old Bank Accounts page order have anything to do with the new Homepage, but new accounts are not automatically added to the dashboard. You have to:
    1) Edit Homepage
    2) Add Widget
    3) Toggle the New Bank Accounts on to Show on the Homepage
    4) Save
    5) Scroll down…

  20. There is no Widget for the classic Expense Claim in the new home page options. Hence It's of no use to me.
