Homepage - More Flexibility in Widget Placement
It would be great to be able to place the widgets wherever you want (like before). I would prefer to have all my bank accounts in a column, as opposed to having to have them horizontal
73 votesHi everyone, thanks again for sharing input on widget placement on the homepage.
As mentioned in our last update, once you Edit Homepage and Save the layout this will be saved for that screen size. If you change screens a prompt is also surfaced to explain that you may want to reset and save your layout.
While we don’t have plans to allow vertical stacking at this stage, we're improving the edit experience. This will make it easier to see how changing a widget's position shifts other items on your screen. I’ll let you know as soon as this is released.

New Homepage - Ability for advisor to set defaults
Love the look and ability to customise widgets for clients. It would be great if we, as Advisors, can specify then the client can change.
Displaying the client logo in the top left is great but way too small to be effective
72 votesGreat to hear you're diving into the new experience, Michele. Thanks for taking your time to share changes that you could feel could add benefit.
We'll get a feel for the interest from other beta users from your idea here and I'll make sure to share if our product teams make any plans around this.

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.

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.
70 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.

Organisation settings - Copy a 'Live Xero Organisation’ details into the Demo company.
Ability to copy/duplicate details into Demo Company.
Purpose: To easily test any changes in the Demo Company rather than implementing it directly into ‘Live Xero organisation’.
65 votesHi community, we appreciate your support and sharing here and want to apologise we haven't responded on this idea before now.
We understand there are opportunities to improve the demo company and provide customers with more flexibility and simplicity in being able to test more thoroughly using the setup and structure of their own organisation, rather than needing to recreate this manually in a separate environment.
This is an area we can see value in evolving, and although this specific capability isn't currently on the roadmap, it's been noted and will remain part of future product planning conversations.
We'll make sure to share any news around this with you all, here.

User Role - Restrict access to specific Tracking categories
Ability to restrict access to specific tracking categories for some users in Xero org.
Purpose: To help users hide the incoming and outgoing transactions from some users within the Xero org. Some organisations (e.g. not for profit) need this to protect the privacy of their donors and departments.

Homepage - Add a tracker for deadlines (such as tax due dates)
I would like to set and track deadline dates on the dashboard for each client relating to statutory and other submissions (i.e. provisional tax / monthly management reports / tax return submissions / etc.).
63 votesHi everyone, appreciate the tractions on this idea.
It's clear that having key tax and compliance dates visible on the dashboard would make it much easier to plan ahead and ensure due dates are met. When those deadlines live outside of Xero, it can mean extra admin and more mental load than necessary.
I’ve moved this to Gaining Support so we can capture interest and share with the product team how valuable this added visibility would be.

User role - Read Only access to reports only
To be able to add restrictions to the Read Only permission for users so that bank account details are not available but allow users to only have access to reporting, income/expenditure transactions etc.

Homepage - Add the ability to group widgets together
With many accounts on the homepage (for example multiple currency accounts), it would be great to be able to drop the widgets into a group. Almost like the iPhones home screen. The difference would be that I could have the ability to resize the group to display the widgets in the group so they could be seen all at one (if desired). e.g. A collapsable view. e.g. All my EUR accounts grouped together.
Rather than making the group resizable to any size, it would be limited to a 3x1 or a 1x3 arrangement, Or some other practical variation
61 votesHi everyone, it makes a lot of sense to want a cleaner way to organise dashboard widgets. When related items like bank accounts or invoice summaries are grouped together, it’s easier to find what you need without much scrolling..
For now, you can use the Edit dashboard button at the bottom of the page to reorder widgets—move your most-used ones to the top and hide the rest.
This idea is now Gaining Support, so we can see how many others would like more control over dashboard layout. We’d love to hear how you’d group your widgets—keep the votes and comments coming!

Organisation settings - Change base currency
It is remarkably convoluted to change the base currency even when no transactions have been posted. It only seems to be possible by cancelling the subscription and starting again. I rely on clients purchasing the software and it is not unknown for them to enter an incorrect base currency. I have used other systems where changing the base currency is very quick and easy. I suggest you make this a little easier.

UK Payroll - Allow Xero users permission to authorise employee timesheets
Allow Xero users permission to authorise employee timesheets. At the moment only the payroll administrator or specific employee has the ability to do this. Payroll permissions under settings/users should be expanded to be more granular, with an option to allow users permission to authorise timesheets. Alternatively, under the employee details in Payroll, an option to select authorised Xero users whom may sign off timesheets for that user.
61 votesThanks for supporting and sharing your needs in limiting access to payroll while enabling those that need to process Timesheets.
We’re currently developing more granular payroll permissions for timesheets so you'll be able to give access to timesheets without full access to Payroll. We’ll share more information as these permissions roll out.

Homepage - Widget for planned bill payments
Widget for planned supplier bill payments - either a summary of total by planned date, or detailed view of the next planned date payments by supplier (e.g. flexes to show planned payments in current week). Helpful for review prior to batch payment runs.

Homepage - Widget for overall cash balance
Overall Cash Balance widget for Xero Dashboard. I actually love the Overall Cash Balance widget for the app. Can we have that as an option for the Xero Dashboard for the web version as well? It's handy to be able to log in and instantly see the total cash for my business.
60 votesHi team, it's great to hear the use you find in this widget on the app. With the new homepage experience our product teams are listening closely to feedback and I've made sure to pass this on. We'll let you know if there are any plans to add this on the web version, here.

User Permissions - History recorded of role changes and ability to add description
There is currently no record of changes to User registrations in the xero file. This is a failure of audit processes.
A description for each user would be handy to identify the role of each person within the Organisation.
A start and End date would allow for Temporary access arrangements.60 votesHi team, we appreciate the interest in this idea and how having a record of changes to a users permissions would be helpful as an audit in your Xero organisation.
While this history event isn't in our immediate plans, we are closely considering how and what changes we record history for as we continue to develop parts of Xero.
For the time being we are continuing to keep a watchful eye on the support in this here, and I will make sure to share if there is any news of this for you all here.

Homepage - Ability to sort by columns within a widget
Where there are headings in the columns of the widget, being able to SORT by that heading..
For eg, "expenses to review" can be sorted by any of the columns: "submitted by", "expenses to review" or "Amount".
This would be helpful also in CoA watchlist, Recent Invoice payments or any other unseen widgets which have a list with column headings.
57 votesIt's interesting to hear the differences in views that would be most impactful for our customers. We appreciate you taking your time to feedback on the new experience.
Our Product team are staying close to what our customers are sharing through the forum here, and if there is any update on this I'll be sure to let you know, here.

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
56 votesThanks for letting us know how this favourites feature matters to you.
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 votes and comments about how this would benefit them, too!

NZ Payroll - Allow timesheet approval for employees with authority
For employees who use Xero My Payroll, if you are a Payroll Admin user, you can grant employees authority to approve leave. The option for Timesheet approval should also be there, it is available in other countries but not NZ.
54 votesHi community, we're pleased to share that we’re now developing more granular payroll permissions for Timesheets that'll allow you to give employee's appropriate access without full access to other sensitive payroll information.
Your feedback has been really useful to our teams understanding and planning of permissions development across Xero payroll.
I'll be back to let you know as these permissions roll out and how you can set your users up with the access they need.

User Access - Restrict Invoice only role to Customer list
There is a role setup for Invoices Only (Purchases). This is useful if you want to have a User process Accounts Payable Invoices, but without providing access to Sales Invoices.
However, if you login with this role, you can see 'All Contacts' as well as the list of all 'Customers' and the billing amounts outstanding. Surely this is inappropriate if the role is for Invoices Only (Purchases)?
The suggestion is that a user with the role 'Invoices Only (Purchases) can see Supplier contacts, but cannot view Customer contacts (which is really what most people would expect if this role is…
