Adding my vote to the others - this would be a very helpful feature.

This is a message directly from my client....We were able to access reports in Sage and there is an expectation to do the same thing in Xero. Are we the only ones who ask for this reporting functionality without having to see bank account? Is it unreasonable to request this functionality from Xero, in the immediate future?

Absolutely critical for my business.
Don't understand why this is not possible.

I took the time to fill out the survey posted in April. I'm really hoping that there is some action taken on this issue soon. I can't delegate tasks that should be delegated until this update happens. There are a lot of great things about Xero but this is a big opportunity to make a big difference in many businesses.

We are reaching out to seek clarification and assistance regarding the governance of user settings within our Xero system.
Restricting user access in Xero is essential for data security, ensuring compliance with regulations and protecting sensitive financial information. It allows organizations to align access with specific roles, minimizing risks of unauthorized exposure. This control is especially important when collaborating with external auditors, enabling them to work effectively without compromising sensitive data like bank balances. Proper access management also supports audit readiness by creating clear trails and demonstrating robust user permission controls.

I Agree with Jasmine (below) and have tailored it to fit our situation: There are confidentiality issues with users being able to access ALL Business Bank Accounts within an entity. I know you have a limited access feature but it is unsuitable for what we need.
Business owners should be able to select which bank accounts and reports each user can access. This is a basic business confidentiality and process requirement issue.
Xero, please urgently address this, as these user access issues are holding our business back. Thank you!

Restricting certain users to certain or specific bank accounts is helpful in people's different roles within a business. It would be a great addition to have a person still able to use functions within Xero but only to a specific bank account.

Adding my input to this to hopefully find a solution. We have multiple small receipts every day but due to access rights we cannot allow the accounts assistant to post and allocate receipts as this allows access to the bank balance. There should be the possibility to allocate bank receipts to invoices without the ability to see the bank balance.

Agreed, There are confidentiality issues with users being able to access all business Bank Accounts.
Business owners should be able to select what bank accounts each user has access to. This is quite basic and I would have thought would have been apart of the initial set up.
Xero you need to urgently set this up in user access.

Chart of Accounts - Would be great if we could hide certain accounts/bank account transactions from certain levels of security or users?

I have 2 bank accounts connected to xero for one of my clients.

Is there any way that i can allow a user to access only one of them and not the other. This is just for reconciling purposes.

There are confidentiality issues with users being able to access the Bank Account. The Bank Account should be a specific function that can be provisioned to users on an as needs basis.

We need a user role where an employee can have full access to all features , but not seeing the bank account or bank recons. There is confidential information that should be kept that way

Seriously XERO!!

Why is it taking over 2 years to implement a basic functionality required by so many businesses?

Reiterating Daria's comment - we also just switched from MYOB to Xero and cannot believe that you cannot limit the User's ability to view certain bank accounts. Please keep us informed with this progress.

This is a critical component to ensure casual or temporary staff do not have access. More criteria for users roles are required. A tick list of what they do or dont have access to.

Unfortunately, the link to the form is not loading. Could you please add me to your focus group? This feature is vital to our business. We recently switched to XERO from MYOB and were a bit frustrated as this feature was available to us there. Please inform us of the progress on this development, as our business decisions depend on it.

It would be a great feature to be able to adjust certain permissions within users in relation to bank accounts. In one Xero organisation I have 3 bank accounts and 10 credit cards, however I would like one user to be able to only see 1 bank account and 2 of the credit cards, not all of them.

For view and access to multiple business bank account in Xero, I suggest viewing access should be restricted according to the Xero role of the user, except for the master user role.
It is important some of the business financial information must not be visible to all Xero user in the business.
