Homepage | Banking widget - Option to update feed login details
The 'update feed login' isn't available under the dropdown on the new page
3 votesHi everyone, thanks for sharing this idea. Being able to update bank feed login details directly from the dashboard would make it quicker to resolve connection alerts and keep your bank feeds running smoothly. We can see how having that action available right where the notification appears would help you get back to reconciliation faster.
I’ve moved this idea to Gaining Support so we can track interest and give our product teams visibility into how helpful a direct “Update login” option on the dashboard banking widget would be.

Homepage - Add Widget For Cash Manager
Adding Cashflow manager view into the dashboard is a helpful view to have. It will not only promote the idea of using the cashflow manager but for those who use it, will start giving dashboard views on cash forecast, balances and risks as cashflow management is an active part of small business users sensitivity.
4 votesHi community, this is an idea we've ben considering and can confirm is in development wth our product team now.
I'll share another update with more information on this once it's live!

accounts watchlist -
Accounts watchlist - please make it that we can edit the accounts that is the most important to watch - not only in numerical order. There are a few accounts that I need to see at a glance (to be at the top) and they are in the middle of nowhere. So scrolling down makes it longer to deal with.

Homepage - Make font darker
The new homepage is an accessibility nightmare. None of the fonts are dark enough on the excessively white background. I only have slight vision issues and I'm really struggling to read it with the light fonts and the clutter. I would hate to have a vision impairment worse than mine because this new homepage is basically unreadable and inaccessible.
I've recommended to Xero on multiple occasions to please hire an accessibility manager who can help them avoid these things, including during times when they've specifically put out requests to have their new pages tested before release, but they continue to…

Homepage - Reduce font size
Make the font smaller so I can see more on one page, instead of having to scroll down for days. It looks like a children's book! People should get glasses if they can't read the smaller font Xero used to have - back in the good old days!!

Homepage - Add shortcut to access Repeating Invoices list
On the "Invoices owed to you widget" please add a button to go straight to "repeating invoices." You currently have "New invoice" and "View all invoices." It looks like you have room to add "Repeating invoices." You could change the text from "View all invoices" to "All invoices" if you needed more room.
3 votesHi Maggie, appreciate you for sharing your idea and explaining how this would fit into your workflow. It’s helpful to understand where quicker access could make things run more smoothly day to day.
We’ve moved this idea into Gaining Support, so it’s now open for the community to add votes and comments. Seeing how others respond will help us understand how widely this need is shared.
As a short-term workaround, you could bookmark the Repeating Invoices page in your browser or pin that tab so it’s always within easy reach. It’s not quite the same as having a dashboard shortcut, but it can help shave off some time while we continue to gather feedback.

Remove the "Import bank statement" link
We don't need to see this link against every bank account on the homepage. The link in the ellipsis is enough.
3 votesHey Jonathan., I completely understand that you personally don’t need the Import bank statement option there.
However, we’ve chosen to keep it visible because, across all Xero organisations, it’s actually one of the most frequently used actions on the bank widget.
Many businesses still rely on manual statement uploads at different times – for example when a bank doesn’t support feeds, there’s a gap in the data, or a feed is temporarily unavailable.
So while it might not be something you use every day, it’s a key shortcut for a lot of other customers, which is why it still appears on the homepage.
If your feeds are working well, you can safely ignore it – it’s simply there as a convenient backup when it’s needed.

Homepage - Add new bank accounts to homepage by default
Automatically show new bank accounts on the Homepage
When a new bank account is added in Xero, it currently defaults to being hidden until the user manually clicks “Add to homepage.” This creates an extra, unnecessary step.
Suggestion:
Have newly added bank accounts appear on the Homepage by default, with the option to hide them if users prefer. This would streamline the setup process and reduce friction for users who expect new accounts to be visible immediately.3 votesThanks so much for getting in touch and sharing how you feel about how new bank accounts show on the homepage.
On the new Xero homepage we’ve updated this experience so you have more control. Your very first bank account still appears automatically on the homepage so you can immediately see your key banking information.
After that, when you connect any additional bank accounts, you’ll see a banner on the homepage letting you know there are new accounts available. From there you can choose to add them to the homepage with one click, or dismiss the banner and keep your current layout as it is.
We landed on this approach after testing and speaking with lots of customers: the strong preference was to always be able to see when a new account is available, while still having the choice about which accounts appear on the homepage.

File upload | Receipts - Automatically recognise and link to transaction
When uploading a receipt, Xero should recognise the information on the receipt and automatically find the bank transaction or ones similar to match with, like what Quickbooks does. It would make life a lot easier.

Homepage - Negative values in brackets and coloured RED thoughout Xero, not just the Homepage
The only option is for the Homepage - but my suggestion is for the whole system.
Having negative values in brackets and coloured RED - easier to see at a glance. To me that should be a basic feature. Extending that to reports also so there is less filtering etc.

Homepage - Show expenses to review/pay in task list
When I add the "expenses to review" widget to the homepage, this shows the expenses that are needing approval, and how much is to be paid.
At the moment I have all my expenses reviewed, and some that now need payment. Why is this information also not replicated in the "Tasks" widget?
What is the point of a "Tasks" widget if it doesn't summarise all the needed actions highlighted across all the selected/displayed widgets? At the moment the listed tasks appear to only summarise a few widgets (and even then regardless of whether those widgets are selected to be shown…
2 votesAppreciate the feedback and how you'd find this information useful within the task widget. Our product teams are reviewing this widget to consider what additional items would be most useful for customers and your feedback here is welcomed. We'll be sure to let you know if we make plans to add expenses to this widget.

Homepage | Bills owed to you - View for bills Due today
Hi we really need the homepage Bills widget to display bills due for payment TODAY.
We receive a lot of bills and we pay them on the due date.
Currently it is not easy to find bills due today among all the bills awaiting payment.
The widget displays overdue bills, it could easily show shows due today so we can easily display and pay them.
Thanks
3 votesAppreciate your feedback, and explaining how viewing bills due today from the homepage would help your business, Rick.
Right now we're watching all feedback we're getting about the new Homepage closely. We'll get a sense of the community interest for this here and share if there are any updates. Thanks

Homepage | Banking widget - Real Time Balance (included future payments)
There should be a widget that shows current bank balance, that includes future payments. The current one only shows bank statement balance, and balance in Xero that only shows up to the current date. But when paying bills, it's nice to know the current balance after other future payments to have a full idea of cash flow available. This widget should then also follow through to the bills pages so I can pay bills and see my balance in real-time to make better plans of which and when bills should be paid.
3 votesThanks for your feedback, Aaron. It's good to get a sense of interest in others that would find this view useful. We'll start to track through your idea here.

Homepage | COA watchlist - view all selected accounts
Please put back the full Watchlist view. The idea of a watchlist is to be able to see at a glance what accounts we need to keep a watch on. It's not 'at a glance' if the list isn't in full view and we have to scroll down.
Also, please remove the advertising and banners that clutter the homepage.3 votesAppreciate the feedback, Carol. Can see how if you've selected a large list of accounts to keep on your watchlist how scrolling the widget could be frustrating.
I want to be honest that we don't have any plans for extending out this widget further atm, however we'll start to get a sense of the interest from your idea here and I'll share if there are any updates.

Homepage - Add app tiles to homepage for easy access
Ability to choose favourite apps and add them either to the top menu bar or the homepage. It will turn 2 clicks into 1 click which seems picky but when launching hubdoc often it would really speed things up
2 votesThanks for sharing, Andrew. Good to know the use you'd find in being able to add an app to your homepage directly for ease of access.
Lets get a wider sense of the interest in this from community here. I'll let you know if there are any plans made.

Homepage | Invoices owed to you widget - Change message for overdue invoices
The text that says '1 of 3 overdue' is so misleading. I took it to mean there were 3 overdue invoices as the the whole line is red. I kept looking for the three overdue invoices, but there weren't three, there was only one. Maybe I'm just dumb, but there's got to be a better way of saying that.
2 votesAppreciate users may read this message differently, Nicola. We're listening to feedback about the new Homepage closely so we'll begin to get a gauge of others that find this confusing here.

last refresh date
For bank accounts, add the date that the account was last refreshed in Xero. Currently, it only shows the date of the last transaction, but I can't tell if my last feed failed or if there just weren't any new transactions. Seeing the last successful refresh would tell me if I need to refresh again.
(One of my accounts requires MFA every time, so Xero always shows a manual "Refresh" button, and so that doesn't tell me whether or not the feed succeeded.)1 voteThanks for submitting your idea on Xero Product Ideas. We appreciate you taking time to let us know how we could improve Xero for you.
