  1. "Business and accounting" role needs ability to more narrowly define. I want an employee to access invoices (receivables) but that then gives them access to ALL financial reporting, e.g. P&L, which I don't want them to see.

    Hey everyone, thank you for all your feedback. We’re on a long journey to provide more granular access and controls within Xero features that our customers need.

    As you may have seen in some of our recent updates across other user roles ideas we’re currently in the process of adding more permissions within Reporting and Inventory. Further to this our research has highlighted Payroll and Banking as areas that more controls are most needed, and are on our agenda as we continue to develop permissions and access to features.

    Your feedback here and through direct engagements with our teams have been extremely insightful, and we appreciate all your inputs.

    I'll continue to provide updates on the development of roles for features as we progress.

  2. Ability to assign a user where they can only have Invoice only and view only reports.

    Purpose: To make user permission easier to set up, rather than having to upgrade them into Standard. As this will allow a user having access to more confidential reports.

    Hi community, our reporting team is actively testing how reports are grouped and accessed, and we'd like your feedback to help us design a better report grouping structure that supports role-based access in reporting.

    How you can help: Complete a quick 15-min online activity to test how reports are grouped and accessed:

    • Part 1: answer questions about the current report grouping
    • Part 2: explores a new grouping and role-based report access

    👉If you're interested, please use this link to get started.

    We greatly appreciate your ongoing support & valuable input for the reporting team!

    (If you’ve already taken this activity, there's no need to do it again — our researchers may have contacted you earlier 😊)

  3. To have the ability limit some users to access some bank accounts within Xero org.

    Purpose: To limit some staff to not be able to see the information about the client’s bank balance.

    Hi everyone, I want to assure you your voice is heard here and feedback is being shared back with our product teams.

    We understand the desire to get this idea moving along and as mentioned in our last update we know this is an area that more controls and permissions would be most beneficial to our customers.

    We’d like to share progress that we’re making for banking permissions - Work to provide more controls of sensitive banking information has started and will initially include the ability to restrict users from seeing sensitive banking information such as; account balances, bank transactions, and financial summaries.

    We know this doesn’t relieve all pain points of this idea - It’ll be the first phase, a stepping stone of sorts in the development of per-bank controls.

    As development continues we’ll share further updates as soon as they’re available with you all here.

    Thank you for…
