Xero HQ | Reporting - Exchange Rates used over a period that is exportable to Excel
Dear Xero HQ, appreciate if we could have the function to Export a Report on the Exchange Rates used for a period of time (in Excel Format). Thank You
47 votesHi 👋 - Is there a specific purpose this report would help with?
Also to better understand the idea would this be on a client basis or across all clients that are managed by a practice?

User Permission - Ability to give both Invoice only and payroll access
I have clients whose bookkeeper does the payroll and also processes accounts payable/receivable invoices. Currently we can't have submit/draft only invoice access AND payroll access. This means that if they want to do payroll, they also get access to approval of invoices. Can we please create a user role where draft/payroll access is combined?
47 votesThanks for the added detail here, Samantha.
@Ben and others that are supporting the idea here - would this be the same scenario for your business in this idea? If so, we have a larger idea embodying this that I'd suggest I merge your idea too.

Conversion Date Mid-Month
When posting conversion balances, you have to post balances at the end of the month. If you could select a day, i.e. 5th of April, it would make posting conversion balances a lot easier

Permissions | Ability for Manage users to assign Payroll Admin
If a staff member has Manager User access to a client file this doesn’t allow them to add users to a file with Payroll Admin unless they have Payroll Admin permissions.
It would be good if people are allowed to MANAGE the access without necessarily having themselves.
Can this idea please get implemented as it will avoid adding administrators with Payroll Admin permissions to our large client list when it isn’t required.42 votes -
User role | Invoice Only - Send receipt for payment
As the Standard user role is required to send a customer receipts for invoice payments or receive money transactions (https://central.xero.com/s/article/Send-a-receipt-to-a-customer), clerical staff assigned this role can view all bank account balances. As most business owners would prefer that bank balances remain confidential, adding the ability to generate customer receipts to the Invoices Only role would alleviate this concern.

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.
40 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.

Permissions - Auditor roles that allows read only access to everything
We're auditors and some of our clients are having issues around providing consistent access to everything as they don't want us to have read-write access, and we don't want that either. What we'd like is a user class for auditors/regulators which is read only and allows access to everything.

User role permission: Invoice Only Purchases - Assign user to see bills paid
Currently, it’s not possible to assign a invoice only-Purchases (orders and bills) user permission and not be able to see bills paid or to have the Invoice Only create drafts user role and see purchase orders approved by other users. Can you include this option in Xero?

User roles: Restrict access to Invoice Settings
For internal control reasons the 'invoice settings' section should be only accessible for certain access types. Anyone with Xero access (excl read only) can go and adjust the bank account manually entered on the invoices sent to customers.
It would be great to have this locked the same way bank account admin is for supplier payments.

Xero Me - Payroll Authorisers to NOT include advisers
Please adjust the Leave Authorisers in Xero Me to be the employees in the business with Payroll Admin &/or the Authority to Approve Leave.
Currently all user with PAyroll Admin are available for selection - which includes ALL advisors.
As an accountant - we are having to revoke our access to a client's payroll to ensure that the staff in the client's business cannot select the accountant's staff members to approve their leave.36 votesThanks for your patience; it’s been a little while since you first raised this idea. I wanted to point you toward a similar request regarding granular payroll permissions: [Permissions: Payroll - Payroll admin limited access].
It’s clear that having precise control over who can access specific payroll areas would significantly improve how you manage timesheets and leave approvals.
To help your idea gain traction, please share it with colleagues so they can vote for it too. The comment section is also open for all members to share how this feature would improve their Xero experience.

User Role: Invoice Only - Ability to add tick box options for setting up a new invoice only user
We need to give a user the 'Invoice only (sales)' permissions but do not want them to view invoices created by other users or ANY sales figures such as 'total awaiting payment' or 'total overdue'.
It would be incredibly useful to have tick box options for main permissions when setting up a new Invoice Only user. These permissions should include:
- View sales totals
- Approve invoices
- View invoices created by other users
- View Invoices awaiting payment tab36 votes -
Multi-Factor Authentication: Support for third party push notifications
With the recent changes to MFA dropping the remember devices from 30 days to 24 hours, the MFA prompt is now far more often (which is of course more secure) however it does slow down login.
Could you please look at updating the MFA configuration to allow push notifications to the mobile authentication app, or better still the number match, which is far more secure. Examples from Microsoft is below, but the priciple would apply in most major platforms.
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/active-directory/authentication/how-to-mfa-number-match
This would improve the user experiance over the token, but also improve the security overall.
Thanks
Dave35 votesThanks for sharing your idea, and letting us know the changes that matter most for you.
Now it's up to the community to get behind and support this idea. Make sure you share it with any colleagues that this could benefit, so they can add their vote too!
In the meantime, you might like to use Xero's own authenticator app, Xero Verify, which does support push notifications when you log in.

User Roles & Permissions - Ability to suspend users
It should be possible to suspend users without deleting them. This should cut off all accesses but should preserve the account /username itself. This is a basic functionality of user access control which is surprisingly absent from Xero. This preserves the user ID incase someone suddenly leaves the company or is suspended from duties for whichever reason.

Email templates - Ability to format date placeholders
Feature: I'd like to be able to format the [Due Date] field when it's included in email templates.
Use Case: My standard emails include a line which reads "This invoice will be due for payment by 09 Oct 2023". I have to reformat the date to a more readable style every time.
Basic Outcome: Using standard date formatting you should be able to express the date as "Monday 9 October, 2023" - note that the leading "0" on the date number has been omitted, and also the inclusion of a comma after the month.
Ideal Outcome: The due date would…

User Role: Ability for standard users to have access to Uncoded Statement Lines
I would like to recommend that standard access users be able to access a very handy "uncoded statement transaction report" that at this point is only available to the advisers role (usually accountants). I am told for advisers it appears on the front page of bank reconciliation. If it wasn't for chatting to an accountant one day about typing out lists to my clients I wouldn't know about it. I guess you don't know what you don't know. This is an extremely helpful tool when trying to send lists to bookkeeping clients / business partners or employee's when you are…

Organisation Settings - Copy an existing company to create a new one in Xero
It could be helpful to have the functionality to be able to copy and existing company in Xero in order to create a new one with the same details. This would make setup of the new one much faster particularly when companies have multiple entities that do the same thing just in different states / Emirates / countries even. You can pretty much copy anything else within Xero so it would be beneficial to be able to just clone the company itself.

User Permission - Separate approver roles for both Invoices and Bills
When raising client invoices, it would be good to be able to submit the invoice to a Manager for approval.
When processing supplier bills, it would be good to be able to submit the bill to a Manager for approval of payment of that expense.
In both cases, this would mean that approval details of "who" and "when" would be noted in the History of the invoice/bill without needing to attach a file showing the approval or tracking this outside of the system.
Ideally keeping the Approval role completely separate to the ability to edit the invoice/bill as well as…30 votes
