New Homepage - Ability to hide accounts that are no longer needed
Of the seven accounts listed on my homepage, only 3 are now required. Please provide the functionality to hide / remove accounts which are no longer valid and reconfigure the layout to suit a user's individual needs. i.e. by click and dragging the boxes into your own preferred layout.
3 votesThanks for sharing this idea and how the new homepage impacts your workflow.
Right now, you can:
- Use Customise homepage to add or remove whole widgets (including Bank accounts and Chart of accounts watchlist), and
- Choose which bank accounts appear in the Bank accounts widget, and which GL accounts appear in the Chart of accounts watchlist via Select/Edit accounts.
There isn’t a broader option to hide individual GL accounts across the homepage, and this isn’t on our current roadmap, so we’re moving this idea to Gaining support so others can vote and add their use cases.
While we can’t commit to a change here right now, your feedback is logged and will be considered as we continue to iterate on the new homepage experience.

Homepage - Organize and order of bank accounts to mirror in the bank accounts page
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…5 votesThanks for the feedback here team, understand how reflecting the order of the bank accounts from the bank accounts page would be useful for some users.
We'll continue to track interest in this here and let you know if there are any updates to the behaviour of ordering planned, however it's not in the pipeline at present.
In terms of showing new bank accounts - the first bank account you add is shown by default. As you add new bank accounts there is a banner that'll show to let you know new accounts are available and you can use the Edit homepage option to choose which widgets you'd like to have shown on your homepage.

Homepage - Ability to add attachments to the task widget
A widget or chatbox where you can leave comments for accountant or business owner?
Ability to strikeoff and clear the comments/tasks. Ability to add attachments like screenshots or even videos will be a great feature for this widget.
This widget can sit on dashboard.
17 votesHearing the different ways our customers would find tasks on the new homepage experience most useful is really valuable. Thanks for sharing your interest in being able to attach files with us here.
Right now, our product teams are considering all the feedback we're receiving from our customers on this new experience, and we will share if there are any updates for this with you.

Homepage - Business Performance dashboard
I would like the Business Performance graph to remain. Its a useful visual and instant reminder of the performance.
Additionally adding the VAT liability to the home screen would be extremely useful. Yes I know it changes daily, however a good insight for business and management of cash flow in an instant (without having to produce reports).
The contents of the proposed Task Bar is just a duplication of information that's already on the home screen therefore not useful to add them collectively on 1 widget. To be able to add our own written task and reminders on a calendar…
13 votesReally good to hear you exploring the new homepage, Estela.
We ask that each idea is contained to one feature request so that it's easy for other members to understand what they're voting for and we can best keep you updated on any progress on a feature. I've slightly amended the title of your idea here for the first you've shared on the Business Performance dashboard.
We appreciate hearing how you find this useful, however we want to be upfront that we don't have intentions of adding this to the new Homepage, to make way for new features that will be coming soon. You'll be able to continue accessing key information from the Business Performance Dashboard page.
The Tax & Reporting widget has been replaced by a new sales tax widget, and depending on your region this will be available in the next 12 months. We also have an idea…

Bank Account Font - Balance Difference and Reconciled
The font is too fine and hard to read. The font size of 'balance difference', 'reconciled' etc is a bit too small
6 votesAppreciate your feedback here Mary. While we don't have immediate plans around changing of the fonts, we'll gauge a sense of this from others in the community here. We will monitor this space for any updates!

Homepage - Projects widget with time and amount visuals
Hi,
My first thought is that the home page is overly busy. The graphs are great but there is A LOT going on. We have more than one bank account so that would make the homepage even busier. The task widget is a great idea but the recent invoice payments and chart of accounts aren't really useful for us. We would want to remove widgets that aren't used.It would be great to have a projects widget showing project time use and amount on the homepage.
Love the improved navigation at the top especially the reporting and tax tabs. This…
13 votesThanks for sharing your thoughts on the new navigation and homepage, Louise! I've just updated the title of your idea to help other members find and we can track the interest in a Projects widget.
We also have a couple of ideas related to simplifying the layout like you mentioned, and another for bolding of the navigation headings that you may like to vote for.

Homepage | Bank account - Make Refresh bank feed button stand out
Make the 'renew bank feed' button/message clearer, it doesn't stand out very well on the new layout.
4 votesThanks so much for taking the time to share this, and for calling out how the renew / refresh bank feed experience on the new homepage.
We’ve moved this idea to Gaining support. This means it’s not currently scheduled on our roadmap, but we agree it could improve key banking workflows, so we’re now watching community votes and comments to help us prioritise it alongside other homepage and bank feeds work.
Please keep adding any extra details about your workflow (for example, how often you’re refreshing and how many bank accounts you manage) and encourage others who’d benefit to add their vote — that will help us understand the impact when we’re reviewing future changes to the homepage bank accounts widget.

Homepage | Cash in and Cash out - Split by Business and Owner drawings
Allow 2 categories of Cash Out since i am a sole trader and my drawings are included in cash out so the widget is useless if i cant either exclude drawings or split cash out between Busienss Cash Out and Owner Drawings Cash out. Just keep the Cash out bar but split into two colours so that you can see Cash out Business and Cash out Drawings.
4 votesAppreciate you sharing the need in this split of the cash in and out widget here. We're tracking the ideas we receive on the homepage closely and I'll be sure to share if there are any updates planned for this, here.

Homepage - Add a "Manage Bank Accounts" or "See All" link to the bank widgets
Please put the quick link button on the new layout to "manage bank accounts".
It's annoying it's not there now, I use it alot!3 votesHi Juliet, thanks for sharing this idea! A direct "See All" link on the dashboard would make it even easier to view and manage all your bank accounts in one place.
Right now, you can click into Accounting > Bank Accounts to see the full list, but having a single shortcut from the Homepage would help you move through your reconciliation tasks more smoothly. I’ve moved this to Gaining Support so our product teams can track interest and see how this could enhance the daily experience for users.

Invoicing - Overdue invoices tab or quick link
I love that there is an easy to see red link to overdue invoices on the homepage, but could this also be added to the Invoices page? I keep going through extra clicks because I click into my overdue invoices to deal with them, select an invoice, and then have the 'back to invoices' link but if I click this there is then no option to select only overdue invoices to view. Also it would be great when viewing all invoices to have some easy way (maybe an '!' symbol or similar so it's colour-blind friendly) to identify which ones…
4 votesHi Laura, thanks for putting this forward.
Having a quicker way to access overdue invoices would certainly make daily credit control more efficient and help you stay on top of cash flow.
In the meantime, you can select the “Overdue” section within the Invoices owed to you widget on the dashboard to jump straight to those invoices. If you open an invoice from that list, using your browser’s back arrow will return you to the same overdue view. Another option is to open invoices in a new tab so the overdue list remains open in the original tab.
I’ve moved this idea to Gaining Support so we can capture interest and share with the product team how useful a dedicated shortcut would be.

Dashboard - Add 'Financial Year' option to the Profit and Loss widget
Like others, I think the options listed for profit and loss on the hompage are too restrictive. The app has better options. I want to know where I stand financially including upcoming payments (to distribute profits) so I tend to use the "Finincial year" P&L rather than "year to date". The app has this but the homepage doesn't.
5 votesHi there,
Thanks for your feedback! It makes complete sense that you’d want the same visibility on your desktop as you have on your mobile app, especially when you're trying to track your financial position for the full year.
I’ve classified this as Gaining Support. While you can see this data by clicking through to your full Profit and Loss report, I agree that having a "Financial Year" toggle directly on the Dashboard widget would be a great efficiency win.
I've updated the title of your idea to "Dashboard - Add 'Financial Year' option to the Profit and Loss widget" to help other users find and vote for it.

Homepage - Add “New Mileage Claim” button in Expenses widget
Would it be possible to add in a "Create New Mileage Claim" in the 'Expenses' section of the new Homescreen? Currently there is a button to 'Create new Expense', but I know of a lot of Xero users that have significantly more mileage claims to input than expense claims, so having the quick shortcut option for the mileage element would be far more efficient.
3 votesThanks for your feedback on adding a dedicated mileage claim button to the homepage. We appreciate you sharing how this could streamline your workflow, especially for those processing mileage claims regularly.
We've reviewed your idea and now it's up to the community to get behind and support it. Make sure you share your idea with any colleagues that this could benefit so they can add their vote too!
Along with votes, other members can now comment to share additional detail about how your idea could improve their experience with Xero.

Homepage - Widget for a customer/supplier watchlist
Watched Clients/suppliers widget
Summarise the invoices and Bills for a given contact
It would be nice to have an overview of specific (perhaps problematic) clients.
It would be good to be able to see at a glance:
- average payment timeframe (i.e. usually 5 days late etc.)
- current credit/debt value
- scheduled invoices/bills3 votesHi everyone, I can see how having a watchlist for key customers or suppliers would be really useful. Whether it’s keeping an eye on a major account’s balance or making sure a supplier hasn’t overbilled you, having those names front and center would save a lot of manual searching.
Right now, important accounts can sometimes slip through the cracks, since you have to remember to check on them individually. A dedicated watchlist would mean Xero could flag the status of these contacts the moment you log in, helping you stay on top of your business relationships.
For now, you can use the Account Watchlist to track overall categories, and for individual contacts, you can bookmark their Activity page in your browser. This lets you jump directly to their transactions and balances with a single click, saving time navigating through multiple screens.
I’ve updated this idea to Gaining Support so our…

Homepage - Widget for month end review
I love the new homepage and how I can customize to make it less busy. I also love the Task widget. It would be great if there was a month end review widget showing a list of bank and credit card accounts with the last reconciliation date.
14 votesGreat to hear the information that would have the most meaning to you. Thanks for sharing through Xero product Ideas.
Our product teams are carefully reviewing the feedback we're receiving from our customers on this new experience and if there are any updates we will let you know.

Homepage - Show Gross Profit
Gross Profit Widget pls ASAP.
This was always the first thing I looked at on my old homepage. I love the addition of Net Profit - Thanks3 votesGreat to hear you find the Net profit or loss widget useful! We're continuing to stay close to the pulse of feedback on the homepage here, so I'll be sure to let you know if there are any plans made for adding Gross profit or loss.

Homepage - View Account Transactions
Each account on the home page now has an added line "View Account Transactions".
This takes up more room - and therefore we see less accounts at a glance.
Have the option to remove this line - and we know we just click on the account - as per usual3 votesHi there 👋, just trying to better understand your feedback here can you share an image of what you're seeing? Right now the ability to 'View account transactions' is only shown from the 3 dot drop-down menu on a bank account, and shouldn't obscure your view of other widgets unless in the menu.

Homepage - View Notes for overpaid invoices
Critically important to our business is being able to easily view 'notes' on overdue invoices next to their overdue amount in a list. No additional click thorughs with each individual invoice number as is the current system.
Knowing when a reminder was sent and being able to view what their latest response was in a list form would massively help with managing unpaid invoices.
We create separate spreadsheets to track overdue invoices and bad debt which is inefficient.
This should be resolved with a quick view in the dashboard to ensure better debt management.
Please13 votesThanks for sharing how we could make the new Homepage more useful for you, Harry.
It'll be good to understand the volumes of users that would also find this useful from your idea here - Make sure to also share your idea if you have colleagues that'd also find this useful and they can vote here too.
Our product teams are paying close attention to the feedback we receive on this here and I'll share if there are any updates.

Homepage - "Renew HMRC Connection" link in the VAT Returns widget
VAT status in home page needs to link to HMRC to renew link as on old version. For reasons I don't understand the link does frequesntly need renewing. I had to switch back to old version to do this today.
3 votesHi everyone, thanks for raising this.
We know that when your HMRC connection expires, not being able to renew it directly from the dashboard can slow things down.
For now, the best way to reconnect is to head to Tax > VAT Return, then follow the prompts in settings to reconnect to HMRC.
I’ve moved this idea into Gaining Support so we can keep track of interest and share your feedback with our product team. It’s clear that having a simple “Renew” option on the VAT widget would make things easier, and your input helps us build a stronger case for it.

Homepage | Net profit and loss - 12 month view
I REALLY want a rolling 12 month turnover, VAT threshold warning.

Homepage - Ability to add multiple copies of the same widget with different filters/periods
Allow duplicate widget tiles
For instance, allowing us to have a tile for 'Net profit and loss - year to date' AND a tile for 'Net profit and loss - last quarter' etc. without having to switch the one 'Net profit and loss' from year to date to last quarter.
Also being able to specify a 'tracking category' for any given tile would allow us to separate PnL at a glance without having to go through the reporting to do so.
4 votesHi everyone, thanks for sharing this idea. Being able to have multiple versions of a widget would make it much easier to compare different data points at a glance—like this month’s sales versus the same period last year—without constantly adjusting filters or date ranges.
I’ve moved this to Gaining Support so we can monitor interest and show our product teams how having extra widget flexibility could help you see key comparisons more efficiently and get a clearer view of your business at a glance.
