Hi 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.

    Does anyone know how long ideas take to get added, or is it just not enough votes? How many votes are needed?

    This is critical! I have used two other business software programs and both had this feature. It was great! you updated the demo company and the colour of the icons etc changed to a bright pink so you knew you where in Demo.

    This is a brilliant idea, when new software is to be used in a company it is vital that it is tested first with real data without risking the live Xero data.

    We could seriously do with this work around NOW!

  • Yda David commented  ·   ·  Report

    Yes please, when will this feature be available in Xero?

  • Graeme Bulling commented  ·   ·  Report

    Yes we need to be able to start with a completely blank Demo company with no data, and then be able to export the data in our "live" account to the Demo so that various scenarios can be trialed.
    This is such a compelling feature I am very surprised it has not already been set up.
