History & Notes - Give access to Standard user
It would be nice to be able to give access to the History and Notes to Standard users. Right now it's only visible for Advisors while I believe this is a feature that could be useful to Standard users as well.
1 voteThanks Guillaume that's good context to know. We don't have any immediate plans around this at present but we'll begin to track the appetite here and share if there's any plans made.

Manual Journal - Allow standard users access to Manual journal screen
For some reason "standard users" cannot see Manual Journals in the accounting menu.
Please allow standard users to access Manual Journals from the Accounting menu rather than having to go to reports. Its just a time waster.
7 votesHi team, although we'll continue to track interest in this idea we want to be open that only allowing access to manual journals fro. the Journal report is purposeful for Standard users.
It is recommended only users that have Adviser access should post manual journals, which is why navigating to this feature has been a little more restricted for the Standard role to help prevent accidental postings. We don't have any plans to change this in the short term but will keep a watch on the support in this here. Thanks

User Roles - Full remittance advice access for Invoice Only Approve and Pay user
For the 'approve and pay' user the remittance function is limited. They should have the functionality to send remittances on a batch payment and also be able to access the remittance button at a later date. An admin member of staff needs access to the full remittance capability in order to complete their duties fully.

Documents - Ability for Read Only users to access Documents
We would like our auditors / account reviewers to have Read Only access to our accounts in Xero however this does not enable them to view Xero Files, which is where we save our bank statements, etc.
Currently we need to give them Standard Access so that they can have access to the documents in Files, however this also gives them the ability to change the accounts as well.
We would like to suggest the Xero files be added to users with Read Only access.
Thanks,
Maria27 votesHi team, thank you for your feedback here and letting us know your needs in providing some users with access to view documents in Xero without the ability to change things in your organisation.
We're in the process of developing a more flexible permissions model that considers Xero Documents as part of role access. As part of our next roll-out we'll be separating document access from wider accounting permissions, to support use cases like has been raised here.
We'll keep you updated as this capability lands.

Bills - Ability to select user to approve draft bills
Being able to allocate draft purchase invoices to different users for approval
79 votesHi everyone, we hear how manual communication to the right person about which bills need their attention can be time-consuming, especially as teams grow.
We’re pleased to let you know that we’re developing a bill approval workflow in Xero. It’ll let admins choose named approvers and set routing rules, so bills can be automatically directed to the right person (rather than relying on inboxes, spreadsheets or verbal follow-up).
Approvers will be able to see the bills waiting for them in Xero and receive an email when their step becomes active, making ownership clearer while keeping the bill, approval decision and history together in one place. You can find more detail in our bill approvals update on The Long and Short of It 😊 - We’ll share more as this feature lands!

Xero Expense - Assign Approver for multiple submitters
Would love to see the option to assign an expense approver to multiple expense submitters or even an 'Approvalmax' approver matrix function added to Xero Expenses. Currently using Xero Expenses to administer over 100 employees expenses and need stronger controls than central finance approving all. Happy to help design/ test!
316 votesHi everyone, we appreciate the number of users that'd like to see more mechanisms to assign and control who approves specific employee's claims.
Our product teams have a close eye on this idea, and while this feature is not in the roadmap atm, they'll keep reviewing this as they continue to plan and prioritise work for Expenses. So, if there us any shift in status we'll share an update to keep you all informed on the idea, here.

User - Give users access to specific invoices/quotes
We need to give specific users access to specific sales.
We have made our employee have draft only sales access, but now we cant collaborate invoices and quotes there should be an option to give users access to specific invoices & quotes, not the total sales in and out11 votes -

Permissions - User Roles to Submit and Approve Quotes and Purchase Orders
It is really basic, the permission control is not flexible and give more options. How about to give multiple choosing box for permissions. I want to create a user and give him permission to create and print quotations and a purchase order permission to create and submit for approval. Because the purchase approval permission i want to give to the manager levels only.
133 votesHi everyone, thanks for sharing your feedback on this idea. We appreciate you explaining how important more flexible user permissions are for your businesses. We understand having granular control over who can create, submit, and approve quotes and purchase orders could help many of you implement better internal controls and protect sensitive financial information.
This idea is now moving to In Discovery, which means our product team are reviewing the viability of the idea as part of wider development of the permissions/user role functionality in Xero. We'll keep you updated here as we learn more.

User Permissions - Access to reconcile without viewing balances
It would be really useful if you could give a user permission to be able to reconcile and post bank transactions, but not see the bank balance.
354 votesHi community, your ongoing interest in giving users the ability to reconcile without viewing account balances is welcomed.
We understand why this level of bank permission control matters. As recently mentioned in my updates on this idea, while we do have current work for user roles underway there is more complexities to developing permissions within the banking space and this isn't on the immediate roadmap.
As we continue our journey to evolving roles within Xero we'll be sure to share any progress for permissions in bank accounts with you all, here.

Expenses - Multiple levels of approval
We need to upload an Approval Matrix/Approval hierarchy with a scope depending on "Location" and "Total amount" with 2 levels of approvers for "Expense claims" (EC) & "Purchase Orders" (PO).
With that, we are looking for automation on sending the EC & PO automatically by the system to the correspondent Approver depending on the scope through email.96 votesHi team, we appreciate wanting more flexibility in expense permissions and that for some businesses a multi-level approval process is necessary.
Though we are continuing to develop Xero expenses to encompass more tools and features our customers are after, we want to be upfront that we don’t have any plans to change expense permissions on our current roadmap.
We will continue to assess your feedback and consider ideas like this as our plans evolve. If there is any change we will share an update.

User - Bank feed refresh for read only users
We have bureau licences with read only access for clients - however when the bank feed drops they are unable to refresh without upgrading. As they have no other involvement it does not make sense for them to have upgraded access - can we allow them to do this on a slightly improved access level please?

Invoice - Ability for users with Invoice Only user role to add prepayments
Users with the Sales (quoting and invoicing)/ Invoice only role to record prepayments in Xero.

Quotes - Restrict users to send quotes but not invoices
Currently, due to the lack of an approval option for a quote (which is a different product idea), I will need to provide the quote creator the right to send quotes directly to customer without reviewing (to avoid having another user to have to login, after being notified per email/whatsapp about the draft created, to review the drafted quote and send to client - very inefficient process). Once I provide an user the right to send quotes, they also have the immediate right to send sale invoices although the approval for a invoice is a non-negotiable. It creates the risk…

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.43 votes -
Permissions | Contacts - Private or limited access to certain contacts
It would be great if it is possible to make a contact private in order to limited the users who has access to a contact, especially when the contact contains private information that should not be accessible by all users.

User Role - Reconcile without access to approve invoices
Being able to customize each user role is quite important as every person in every company does something different. Giving them access to systems they shouldn't have because the User Role they need to do their job allows them access to these other areas is a security risk in general.
Putting in Custom Roles will also allow companies to adjust the Users to their Company Policies for controls.
This is the main reason I am posting this, as we are soon bringing on a new junior accountant where I will need to give them "approval" rights for Invoicing and a…
84 votesAppreciate the idea here - Being transparent, developing granular permissions or roles for every feature and action throughout Xero is not in our plans.
Understanding more of the permission sets majority of users need, will help understand where the biggest impact could be made.
I've slightly adjusted the title to suit the needs of the role you mentioned. We'll get a sense of others that'd like this too.

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.
