Navigation - Add Custom reports access to Reports menu
Custom reports as an option the Report drop down. I know we can favourite them, but if we have a lot of custom reports it's quicker just to go to the custom report page immediately and work from there.

Homepage - Display the Current Lock Date
Add an optional setting to display the current lock date clearly on the Xero home page so it is visible at all times.
This would help reduce simple processing errors, especially as automation becomes more widely used.7 votesThanks for sharing in Xero Product Ideas, Scott. Can appreciate how more visibility of this setting for some user roles maybe helpful.
This isn't something we have in our pipeline atm, but we'll get a wider sense of interest from others in the community here and I'll share if there are any plans made.
For now, share this with any colleagues that'd also find this helpful so they can add their vote.

Homepage/Navigation - Softer non-high contrast bright blue colour used for banner and action buttons.
Change the high contract blue colour back to the softer on the eye colur before the recent update.
Recent update changed the font and blue background on menu banners and buttons in the desktop interface
* The new blue color is too bright, causing fonts to appear blurry and creating harsh contrast that is difficult to read.
* Request to restore the previous blue color due to readability and eye strain concernsThe old blue and new blue can be seen together in the hep chat.
4 votesHi community, we appreciate your feedback on the recent colour changes across Xero, this has been shared back with our teams and they are keeping a close watch on the feedback here, however I want to be upfront that we don't have any plans to change this further at this stage.
We will let you know if here if there are any further updates planned for this.

Invoice Editor - Registered Business Name in Footer
"Doing Business As" is an important aspect of doing business because it allows separation of business and organizational administration as well as important banking, tax and branding functions. Something as mundane as cashing a check at the bank can be done in the name of your registered brand or dba but not if the check is written out to an LLC or Inc. However, there doesn't seem to be a way to make this distinction officially in the Xero software. As an example, my company is X-Ray and Digital Services, LLC but I do business and all my branding is…
6 votesThanks for sharing this idea with us Joseph, we understand that having the registered business name and address in the footer of the invoice is something you would like see returned to the invoice settings options. This Ides is now open for others to vote and comment on so we can gauge interest from the wider community. I can see that you have raised this wiht our Support team and they have suggested using the DOCX invoice option, however you can also add the registered business name and address to the bottom left of the standard invoice by utilising the Payment Notes section as seen in the screenshot Below. Any updates to this idea will be posted here.

Homepage - Ability to check tasks
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.

Homepage - Ability to search unreconciled transactions within the homepage
Allow searching for unreconciled transactions from the home page.
82 votesAppreciate the interest this idea is receiving about the new homepage experience. Thanks for your input!
It would be good to clarify here - when you say you'd like to search Unreconciled transactions, would you be wanting to do this across all banks at once, or within each bank widget?
We don't have any plans around this right now, but are continuing to track the interest here.

Homepage - Allow custom or extended timeframes (12+ months) for Cash In and Out widget
Can we be allowed to change the time selection on the cash in and out view (eg to 12/13 or even 18 months?) seems to be stuck on 6 months for me. I think to see trends you really need to see at least a year
26 votesHi there, thanks for the suggestion!
You're right that the current 'Total Cash In and Out' widget is fixed to a 6-month view.
While you can see longer periods by running a Cash Summary report, I understand that having that 12 or 18-month trend visible immediately on your dashboard would be much more powerful for spotting seasonal patterns.
I’ve classified this as 'Gaining Support' to see how many others would like more flexibility with this widget's timeframe

Homepage - Compact table-view widget for bank accounts
Please add a widget on the homepage that displays the bank accounts in a simple table format, including the account name, balance, and transactions that need reconciliation.
Overall, the new layout takes up too much space, making it difficult to fit essential information on a screen.
A more compact view without unnecessary elements would be appreciated.
And also the optin to disable popup adverts!
25 votesHi team, as we continue to closely monitor feedback about the new Homepage we really appreciate your input and feedback on the view of bank accounts here.
We understand how having a more compact view of all bank accounts to see the information you need at a glance would be useful and are picking this idea up to dig deeper. I'll be back to share any news around this with you all here. Thanks

User - Customizable Viewer permissions by feature and tracking category
Viewer permissions - Ability to customize Viewer permission for users. Eg If I want to provide viewing access to only Bills but not for Bank accounts. Also, ability to provide access to users based on Reporting tracking category, this is very useful for not-for-profit organization, where many staff are volunteer and we would like to assign user based on reporting category.
9 votesThanks for raising this, Reshma. We understand the request for more flexible View Only permissions, so access could be limited to specific areas.
I’ve updated the status to Gaining Support so we can continue tracking community interest. What would you want to be able to include or exclude when setting up Viewer access?

Lock Date Message - link directly to financial settings
Adding a hyperlink when you get the lock date error message to take you directly to the financial settings to update this instead of having to navigate there manually.8 votesThanks for bringing this to us Kory, we appreciate the time taken to let us know that having a hyperlink to the lock date section in the Financial Settings would be desirable.

Navigation - Feature to 'favourite' menu items
Before the update, we were able to add settings like Report Codes to favourites, so it would appear automatically on the drop down list. Can you please reinstate the ability to add specific settings to favourites

Homepage | Bank account widget 'Account transactions' button as well as 'Reconcile items'
The ability to access the setting for each menu item is great.
The ability to create a sales invoice for billable expenses from the billable expense is outstanding.
The button to View transactions on each bank account on the home page is excellent but I would like this button for accounts that have items to reconcile as well. Fewer clicksHelp banner on each page. I would like to be able to disable this permanently for established clients.Sales tab.
Love the "Billable Expenses", Needs to be aboveQuotes. Need to be able to not bill them where I have a project invoice. Just assign the customer.
Purchases Tab:…99 votesHi Michele, connecting with our product team I understand you directly caught up with them on some of these points too. We really value the time you've taken to connect and feedback about these beta experiences.
I've split your feedback here to multiple ideas so we can track interest in each change separately.
I've updated the title of this idea to reflect the request to add the Account transactions' button to the bank account widget and you'll find the other idea's I've created on your behalf listed below. 🙂

Homepage - Condensed/compact view with less white space
There's a lot of white space on the page. Can things be condensed more please?
21 votesReally good to get this sort of detail about aspects of the homepage that you feel could be condensed or removed to help with your experience of the homepage. We're continuing to get an understanding of community interest around this and hear any further detail of where within the page you feel space is unnecessary. Thanks

Lock Date: ‘Unlock for Me Only’ Option for Accountants
When doing the year end processes, an accountant should be able to unlock the period for their log in only ie 'unlock for me only' as if the client or others have the same user access, they can change the accounts while we are working.
48 votesAppreciate your sharing on lock date controls. Being able to remove lock dates for specific users can help maintain accounting information .
We’ve moved this idea to Gaining support, so the community can vote and comment. If you have any details about how you’d use it, adding them here will help everyone understand the idea better and give the product team more context down the line.
We’ll update more here once we gain more traction.

Homepage | Widget for next Payroll
Next Payroll Wiget for Homepage
When the new homepage was launched, I was hoping for a widget that had the link to the next scheduled payroll, the draft amount, the due date, leave to approve, timesheets to approve, last payroll (perhaps), super payments, etc. Layout could be like the 'Bills to pay' widget without the chart. Given that in Australia, SGC will need to be paid each payroll, that draft amount could also be added in the widget, linking to the Super payments module.27 votesHi team, happy to share that this is something our teams are working on at present!
We're developing a Payrun widget to help you keep track of upcoming or current pay runs ☺️
I'll come back to share as it rolls out.

Homepage - Independent accounting basis toggle for Account Watchlist
We use cash basis for reporting, but utilize the COA watchlist in the accrual basis.
Having the ability to choose your accounting basis on the Chart of Account watchlist would allow users to take full advantage of the COA watchlist without having to change their reporting basis to one basis to utilize the watchlist and back to the other for reporting.
25 votesHi there,
Thanks for sharing this idea!
I can see how frustrating it is to have to jump back and forth into your Advanced Settings just to get the view you need on your dashboard.
The Account Watchlist is meant to give you a quick "at-a-glance" look at your numbers, and having to change your global reporting basis to make it useful definitely adds extra steps to your day.
I’ve assessed this and moved it to Gaining Support. This will allow our product team to see how many other users are running their operations on a different basis than their compliance reporting.
I’ve also updated your title to: Dashboard - Independent accounting basis toggle for Account Watchlist to make it easier for others to find and vote on.
In the meantime, while the dashboard widget is tied to your global settings, you can save a custom version of the…

Permissions - Ability to set level of Approvals for different transactions
Hierarchy of approvals of bills and Purchase orders
eg Invoices over £1000 go to tom to approve
75 votesWe appreciate the feedback and interest in being able to set different levels of approval across different transaction types in Xero atm. Currently the draft permission will enable a user to create draft transactions in an org with out the ability to approve, while the Sales Invoice Only role will enable a user to create and approve invoices or quotes without access to purchases, and similarly the Invoice Only Purchases role will allow a user to create and approve Purchase transactions without access to Sales.
To better understand the ask in this idea can you share exactly the type of set up you would be looking to achieve to help with entering information in your organisation.

Homepage | Invoices owed to you widget - Move new invoice button to top
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.
16 votesAppreciate 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'.
