  1. Adding 'statements' to the Sales drop down navigation. Simple addition, rather than having to go through the full Invoice page to send statements at EOM.

    Hi everyone, thanks for your engagement and sharing how we can further improve the new navigation experience for you here.

    Our product team are paying close attention to your feedback on the drop down options, and we're continuing to monitor the interest this idea receives.

    We'll let you know if there are any updates, here.

  2. On the Sales menu, I would like a sub-menu/fly-out to the right of Invoices with links to the Draft, Awaiting Approval, Awaiting Payment, Paid, and Repeating tabs on the Invoices page. This would enable me to go directly to the tab I want, saving a click or two, and reduce page load time instead of always landing on the default tab then having to click the one I actually want. Clicking Invoices should still go to the All tab. Same could be done on the Purchases menu for Bills.

    Alternatively, instead of a sub-menu/fly-out, add Draft, Awaiting Approval, Awaiting Payment,…

    We appreciate you sharing feedback on the changes we could make to further enhance the new navigation for you, here!

    Understanding that sub menus or more levelled drop downs could be helpful in some places, this is an idea our product team have a close eye on.

    If there is any news I'll share an update with you all on this, here.

    Hi team, we appreciate your valuable feedback on how we could keep improving the new navigation experience for our customers.

    We appreciate hearing how and why sub menus could be helpful in some sections of the navigation and this is something our product team are monitoring closely.

    I will share if there are any plans or progress to share on this, here.

  4. Before the update, we were able to add settings like Report Codes to favourites, so it would appear automatically on the drop down list. Can you please reinstate the ability to add specific settings to favourites

    Hi everyone, thanks for sharing this idea. We understand that having a quicker way to return to recent searches could help when moving between clients, transactions, and reports.

    The suggestion is to add a recent search history dropdown in the global search bar, making it easier to revisit previous searches without re-entering the same details.

    For now, opening commonly used items in separate browser tabs can help you move between workflows without losing your place. We’ll continue tracking this idea here so the community can share feedback and use cases to help shape future improvements.

  8. Accessing Reconcile is always two clicks away. A dedicated reconcile button on the menubar with option to choose account would be make an improved UI and UX

    Thanks for clarifying that further Darian. That is a great idea and we can see why that would be useful. We're moving this idea to gain further support from the community while find similar ideas to merge with your idea and add more support to it. Feel free to share this with your friends and colleagues so they can add their vote in as well :)

  10. Please add Tracking Categories back to the main menu, so it can be accessed with one click instead of having to navigate through to settings. Under accounting tools would be fine. Thank you

    Thanks for raising your feedback with us here. It's really good to understand what's important to help our customers working in Xero.

    If possible it'd be great to get more detail as to why you're often needing to access the Tracking Settings? In many places you'll find that you can add new tracking options for a category while on the go and entering transactions in your org, so would appreciate deeper understandings of your business flows here.

  11. I'd prefer to see the Tax Menu consolidated into either the Reporting or Accounting menu. Having more options just adds clutter and unnecessarily overwhelms users.

    Hi team, we appreciate the interest from you all on the new navigation experience.

    We're keen to continue tracking where our customers would find features the most useful in terms of navigation and if there are any changes for the location of Tax I will share with you here.

  12. Anywhere we can add Notes (invoices, transactions, etc.) we should be able to tag other users. I'd like to write a note for my bookkeeper and tag her so she knows to go look at it.

    Those tags should then show up as notifications in that users console and/or some sort of "To-do" area.

    Thanks for sharing your idea, and letting us know the changes that matter most for you.

    We've reviewed your idea and can see how quickly tagging other users straight from Xero would be helpful. We've updated the status to "Gaining Support" and It's up to the community to get behind and support it.

    Along with votes, other members can now comment to share additional detail about how your idea could improve their experience with Xero.

  13. Hi Xero Team,

    I’m really disappointed to discover that the Xero Mobile App doesn’t provide any way to view the Balance Sheet - a core financial statement that forms half of any set of accounts and is the backbone of understanding a business’s position.

    As a property developer, tracking CAPEX spends per project is critical, and not having quick access to this information on the go is a significant limitation. Even a simple dashboard or quick-glance view in the app would make a huge difference for users like me who rely on Xero to manage their businesses efficiently.

    We all…

    Appreciate your feedback here, James. It's good to hear the sort of information our customers would find most handy on the go.

    This isn't something we have direct plans for atm, but we'll get a sens of the interest for viewing the Balance Sheet in the Xero Accounting app from the community here and I'll let you know if there are any plans made.

  14. I would suggest adding "Drafts" to sales and purchases menu.

    Great to be getting this feedback and see the input from our community that are getting a gauge of the new navigation experience. Thank you.

    Our product teams are very close to the different needs being shared from our customers in the forum here and we will keep you updated if there are any plans made around the menu options for Sales.

  16. Recommend building in a confirmation notification and downloadable copy of the acceptance of quotes.
    There's currently no way for clients go back and track the status of quotes.

  18. So now that Files has been moved to the Accounting tab, I have to remember to find it. It would be great if the Menu items at the top of the page could be slid around in the order of importance, hidden from view or an additional menu item created called Bookmarks where my favorite links were all in one place.

  19. Custom reports as an option the Report drop down. I know we can favourite them, but if we have a lot of custom reports it's quicker just to go to the custom report page immediately and work from there.

  20. Great Change
    Upcoming changes are very useful. However, a small suggestion re. the home page menu: As an Accountant in practice would like the following order.

    Home
    Accounting
    Sales
    Purchases
    Payroll
    Reporting
    Tax and
    Contacts.
