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…1 voteThanks for sharing your idea, and letting us know the changes that matter most for you.

Users - Login history only shows 60 days extend to longer period
I used to be able to sort by login history to see who has been working on which client account. This feature no longer is available it seems. Also, there used to be the ability to see a year's worth of logins, now it's only a few months. Why the change? This doesn't help when we are doing a year's worth of book-keeping for previous periods and I would like the functionality back to what we had in Classic. When using something New, please add and not remove well used and helpful reports and options. Thank you.
BTW, why did…

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
11 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.

Xero Login - Authenticate with Face ID on desktop
Hi Xero. I can log into Xero on my phone using facial recognition, but it's not available on my desktop, why is that? Should be easy to do, right? Current MFA whilst necessary is cumbersome, facial ID is simple and safe.

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.
17 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…

Login - Ability to set a Password Expiry
Hi Community,
In relation to XERO security, I suggest all users should have a password expiry functionality where after a period (eg 6 months) it prompts all users to change their password.
5 votesHi Simon, thanks so much for taking the time to share this great idea about improving login security.
We've had a look, and your suggestion to add a password expiry feature is now open for the community to vote and comment on.
We're keen to see what others think! They can now add their votes and share how this would help them manage their own business's security policies in Xero.

Login - Move 'Trust device' option above Login button
Its a small change but something that bugs me as i do it at least once, sometimes twice, a day.
Currently the "trust this device" check box is below the login button. If logging in solely on a keyboard you have to enter 2fa code, tab twice and hit the space bar to check the trust this device box then shift tab to go back up to the login button. So the keystrokes are enter 2fa, tab, tab, space, shift tab, enter
If the check box was between the password and login button then it would be, enter 2fa code,…

MFA - Move cursor to code field automatically
When I login to Xero, I enter my email address and password and am taken to the second page (MFA).
I'm then asked for the authenticator code, but I have to click into the field to enter the code.
Xero knows that there is an almost 100% likelihood that the first (and only) thing I am going to do on that page is enter the MFA code.
Xero should automatically have the cursor in that field so that I can type the code without clicking into the field.

MFA - Option to switch between devices in Xero Verify
Changing MFA devices for Xero Verify brings over your accounts but on the Xero Identity Account page, when you attempt to change the device it makes you re-set up the account / code in Xero Verify. Would love to just have a 'change linked device' with a drop down of devices that have Verify attached to the account.

Login - Single Sign-on (SSO) across Xero Products
Would be nice when moving from Xero to Xero HQ and Xero Central to have it retain your login so you do not have to login to each site separately.
45 votesThanks for sharing your interest in single sign on across Xero's products. This is available currently across many areas or Xero. For example if you are logged in and working in Xero, then move across to Xero Central(our support hub) you may need to click the login button in the top right of the screen but if you're session hasn't ended you should find the page should refresh and automatically log you in.
We appreciate wanting a smoother login experience that's recognised across all Xero products and will share if there are any improvements planned around this with you all, here.

User role permissions - Control and restrict access to chart of accounts
We use Xero for our Bookkeeping business & would like to invite clients to view only the information pertaining to their individual business records. Right now, anyone who logs in can see every other client’s information, as well as their own.
23 votesHi team, rounding back to this idea here it appears there are a few different use cases being raised around permissions.
From the sounds some would like to restrict access to for users to specific contact records, and we have an idea for this here that I'd recommend joining.
For those that would like to restrict access to specific reports we have another idea around this we'd recommend joining.
I'll adapt the title of this idea for those that'd like to restrict access to specific chart of accounts.
We appreciate interest in each and you're welcome to join each idea you'd like to see development for, and we'll share any updates on each idea respectively.

Have the option to set your Preference to logging in to 'My Xero' instead of Xero HQ or Lsat Client you were in.
4 votesThanks for your engagement and letting us know the changes that matter to you, Bailey.
We've reviewed your idea again and I've slightly updated the title so this is clearer to others members on the site. We'll continue to track the interest your idea receives here, however there are no plans to change these preferences at present.
