Inventory Permissions - Ability to set for a Standard user
New Inventory Permissions - Standard user automatically gets full control of inventory. Is it possible to customise this like you have in Invoice only to View,Edit etc?
Could we please request further customisation of inventory permissions?
Under the current permission structure (NEW), a standard user has the ability to edit and manage inventory. However, if reduced to Invoice only, they can view inventory items (which is helpful) but they lose the ability to view all invoices for a contact. This makes it difficult for them to properly review customer purchasing history.
At present, the only way to allow visibility of…
1 voteThanks for the additional feedback! Understand how having these permissions for the Standard role would be beneficial, and this is something we do want to support but don't have a clear timeframe for just yet.
I'll shift your idea for Accepted right now and keep you updated of any progress around this here.

User Role – Enhancement to Invoice Only (Sales) for Payment Management
We are encountering a limitation within the current user roles that is hindering our Sales team’s efficiency in managing customer accounts.
The Issue:
The existing 'Sales (Invoice Only)' role does not provide the necessary permission for sales staff to amend, edit, or delete payments applied to invoices. This is critical for adjusting client balances quickly during the sales and collection cycle.
The only alternative role grants full access, including Purchases/Accounts Payable, which we cannot provide to the Sales team due to internal control policies.
The Request:
To ensure our Sales staff can manage the revenue process without accessing sensitive financial…
5 votesThanks for raising this idea about user role permissions for payment management. It’s a great starting point, and we can see how more granular sales role controls could help with managing access and maintaining internal checks.
This idea is now Gaining support, so it’s now open for votes and comments. If this would be helpful for your team, jump in and share how you’d like to see it work, more examples and context will really help when we look at this in future.
Looking forward to hearing the community's thoughts and seeing the discussion build around this one.

Permissions - Give Invoice Only users access to Send/Print for approved invoices
Invoice Only User SHOULD have access to "send and print" feature once the Purchase Order were approved. To address this concern, a user should have an access level of Invoice Only + Purchases, however, changing the permission to this level, the inputs made by other users, which might be confidential and unnecessarily to be seen by others, are compromised. I would like to request to add this feature (send and print) for the Invoice Only users.
18 votesWe appreciate you taking the time to share and support this idea. We can see that this idea is already gaining traction amongst the community. Giving Invoice Only users the ability to send or print approved invoices has the potential to simplify your workflow and make day-to-day tasks more efficient.
Enabling this functionality would allow the same users who create and approve invoices to also send or print them, reducing handovers and helping your business operate more smoothly. It’s a great example of how a small change can lead to better team autonomy.
Currently, this action is available to users with Standard, Advisor, or Invoice Only – Approve & Pay roles. Expanding this to other Invoice Only roles, such as Draft, Sales, or Purchases could make Xero even more flexible for teams with clearly defined responsibilities.
We’ve moved this idea into the Gaining Support stage. It’s now open for voting…

allow "invoice only" users to post to xero from orderwise
I would like a member of staff to be able to post to Xero from our Orderwise ERP software when I am away, so that I can have a holiday where i don't have to log in to Xero and Orderwise every morning. It is not currently possible as she has "invoice only" access. which works for everything else she does, but will not allow her to post from Orderwise to Xero. I don't want to give her access to the bank accounts so I'm stuck. Please consider making a change to user permissions to allow this 3rd party posting…

Organisation settings - Setting to remove data 7+ years old
In NZ we are required by law to keep 7 years of records for the IRD (tax department). I make a point of destroying old financial records that are older than 7 years. Xero doesn't have a mechanism to purge old data. I see in my Xero I full record including invoices, supplier invoices and financial data back to Jan 2014.
I would like to see a system whereby old data was completely wiped, and summary starting figures created for the purged data period, say as at the start of each tax year, for me 1 April 2018 so that…
10 votesAppreciate why you'd like to remove older data from your org after a long period, Steven. Generally we don't want to be touching our customers data, and this isn't something we have plans for implementing. However, we'll get a sense of the interest from others in this here, for our product teams to consider.
Right now, if you'd like to remove older data there are a couple of options;
- You could start a new organisation from the date you'd like to keep records from, setting up the organisation with conversion balances from that date. You could also export and import information from the old org to the new one.
- Change the conversion balances in your existing org and remove older data prior to this date

Quote Only User Role with Restricted Inventory Access
Proposed Feature: Quote Only User Role with Restricted Inventory Access
Introduce a Quote Only user role in Xero that allows a user to create, edit, send and approve quotes while restricting access to all other parts of the system. The user should only see the quotes they created themselves and nothing else.
The Quote Only user should be able to create quotes, edit their own quotes, send quotes to customers, and view inventory items with read only access. Inventory visibility should include item descriptions, prices, tax settings, and available stock quantities, but the user should not be able to modify…

Bank Sort Code
XERO is the only system I know which does not automatically add the hyphen between the numbers. e.g. 00-00-00 Instead XERO goes 000000 and you have to add 2 hyphens. This would just be nice!

not automatically add clients to a firm user upon inviting them into the practice
General overhaul of user permissions. Including: When a new user is added to the practice at the admin level, they are automatically added to all clients in the practice. For large firms this is problematic and would be better if all users were only given access to the demo account upon invitation.

Xero portal
I would like a link to the Xero portal where tax documents are sent for e-signing. Rather than having to find an email with the link to the Xero portal to e-sign tax documents, it would be helpful for clients to be able to simply click a link within Xero to go back to the Xero portal and see past signed documents or anything that is waiting to be signed.

XAA - Log each login when using the App
Amazed to discover that a 'login' from the app on a mobile phone using biometrics for example, does not count as a 'login' at all and is classified by Xero as an 'unlocking' event, but this is not logged or tracked at all (that we users can see). So in effect the 'Login History' in 'Settings' is completely flawed. This is also not recognised in 'History & Notes' unless the user actually makes changes. So if they are just in there viewing stats etc. they are invisible. This is really not ideal.
I would like to see app logins included…4 votesThanks for sharing your idea, and letting us know the changes that matter most for you.

Email as a multi-factor authentication method
Not everyone has access too or wants to use an authenticator app. I would like to have a code send to my mobile or email as the authentication method. When we setup Xero asks for a backup email address which codes can be sent too. So if codes can easily be sent to a backup email address, then why cant they just go to the users email address ? Please consider allowing code to be emailed to the user as multi-factor authentication method, instead of only allowing an email to a backup email address.

Gibraltar
To whom it may concern, my post is not an idea but rather a request for you to consider extending your UK based XERO product to jurisdictions where UK accounting practices have been adopted and reporting currency is GBP.
I am an AAT qualified accountant of approximately 30 years. I trained at Ernst & Young in Gibraltar then moved to BDO before settling as the accountant at a local Gibraltar private school where I have been for the past 15+ years. We use SAGE and have done for 15+ years to manage the school accounts. Alongside this role I served…2 votesHi 👋 your idea is being looked into by our Community team.

Navigation - Quickly access Tracking Categories
It would be great if there was a simpler way to navigate to the Tracking Categories directly from the homepage.
1 voteThanks for the additional info. Ellliot.
Totally get it's still round about to the direct ask you have here, however did you know it's now possible to add a new tracking option as you enter an invoice?
Maybe this could dave you from having to go to the Tracing Settings before entering your invoice?
Either way we'll start to track the interest from others in having a quick access link for this, here.

Xero Me app - Customer field search bar
The customer field box really needs a search bar. Having to scroll through 500 customers is very tiresome. There should be a search bar for every field to be honest. It does exist on the browser version, but not the app version.

Navigation | Global Search (magnifying glass) - Coloured invoice status in results
In search since I've used Xero, when searching for an Invoice Number - results would appear and a coloured box with the status - red for Awaiting Payment, and green for Paid. A handy visual meaning I didn't have to actually read the status.
Now in the new Search - these colours have disappeared. Why? I now have to scan up and down and actually read what it says without my visual guide. Xero keeps making changes to make things harder to use, and any suggestions I follow to make things easier for users, even really simple quick fixes, are…5 votesHi Anita, thanks for sharing your feedback about this feature, and how you'd like to see it restored.

User role - Limit read only access
I am going through a bad divorce and I have to give my ex wife read only access to my company file however i am going against court orders and not giving her access as i know she will take invoices, purchase orders and product sell and buy prices to my competitors once our settlement is complete.
I need xero to create a read only service that does not show invoices, purchase orders, bills, inventory and also removes the report tab. pretty much just allow her to see bank accounts and where money is getting allocated.
