Onboarding - Add Xero to the list of "What tool are you currently using to run your business"
When creating a new organisation, there isn't an option to choose Xero from the dropdown list of "What tool are you currently using to run your business". I'm migrating from one org to another because of limitations in your PAYE scheme functionality. Right now, a user can't select Xero from the list, which may help you shed light on users who are either running into org challenges or who are power users of your tools.

Navigation - Back to the top button at bottom of page
Please could you add a 'Back to the top' button, especially on the reconcile and report pages, but every page would be useful.
After scrolling down many line items, it would be far quicker to have this function implemented for ease.15 votesHi team, thanks for showing interest in this idea.
While we don't have any plans for adding this within Xero atm, as mentioned in my last update if you're working on a desktop you can use the 'Home' button on a Windows, or on a Mac you can press the 'Command' key + Left arrow.
This should help when navigating a long lists or pages like reports.
We will continue to track the appetite through this idea.

Navigation - relevant reports available from other drop downs
I love the way the various areas have been split now (Home Sales Purchases Payroll etc)
I would prefer that reports relating to each of those sections, be stored in their menus. IN the Reporting menu, I have 10 varying reports which make it a long menu path. If they were in their individual menus (e.g. Aged Receivables Summary in Sales menu; Aged Payables Summary in Purchase, all Payroll related reports in Payroll) it would be easier to find and more logical. You could have more reports visible as well in each Menu.
If this is not possible, can we…
1 voteGreat to hear you like the new layout of the navigation, Jason.
Appreciate how further customisation of reports and possible nesting under the relevant menu drop downs could be useful. We'll get a gauge of the interest in this from others in the community here.
This isn't something we have plans for atm, but will share if this gets picked up at all.

Navigation - Move up practice tools section on main menu
Navigation - Main Menu
Personally, I access practice tools and hubdoc / syft several times daily, I'd prefer not thave to scroll down to get to these. Settings and Subscription / Billing are access much less frequently and coud me lower in the menu.
Also the Xero Menu and Home Menu seem to do exactly the same thing? Could the main drop down menu therefore be moved over to the LHS where it was previously.2 votesThanks for your feedback, Tina. To make it easy to track the interest from community and keep you updated we request each post is contained to a single idea. I've slightly amended your idea to the first that you mentioned around navigating to practice tools. We have a slightly different one for the navigation to Hubdoc that you may like to vote for.
For the last point you've noted around the Xero and Home buttons - welcome to start a new idea for this too, that we can track support in. Thanks

Email - Ability to cc and bcc sent emails
Ability to cc and bcc when sending emails from xero.
This would be very useful as we have many clients that like to have various other people copied in.
97 votesHi community, we value your engagement in product ideas here. As you may have seen we've recently rolled out a new send experience in new invoicing.
With this new side-by-side view you'll find you can also CC and BCC other emails 🎉
While this feature is contained to new invoicing atm, we'll look at applying a similar experience to other areas of Xero that you can send from in the future, so we'll keep you updated of any further developments for this here. Thanks!

Dashboard - Show current exchange rates on dashboard
It would be useful to be able to see today's exchange rates on the dashboard - I use information on the dashboard to prepare a weekly report and it's annoying to have to go to another screen to display exchange rates which also form part of my Excel report.
2 votesThanks for sharing this suggestion for the Xero Dashboard. We understand that when you're preparing regular reports, having all the key information in one place can be a real time-saver.
We've reviewed your idea to be able to see today's exchange rates directly on the dashboard. We can see how having this information readily available would streamline your weekly reporting process.
Your idea is now open to gain support from other community members. Along with votes, others who work with multiple currencies can now comment to share how this feature would improve their own workflows.🙂

Navigation | Search - auto close and remove entry
I have seen the new Xero update, and the search bar has changed (only looks and complaints)
1. The search bar stays open, so you manually have to close it, which is slightly annoying.
2. Your search stays in the bar when it is closed. So when you open the bar again to search for something else, you have to delete the original search. If it has been a while since you last searched, you forget, and it can be so frustrating.If the search bar were fixed (actually finding things I were searching for), I wouldn't mind. But this…
1 voteInteresting to get your feedback on this, Jodie-May. It'll be good to get a sense of the wider community appetite in this too. Our teams are paying close attention to the feedback on the new experience and I'll share if there are any updates for you here. Thanks

Dashboard - List prepayments separately from "Awaiting payment" list
List prepayments separately from "Awaiting payment" report in Dashboard.
At the moment, prepayments are lumped together with "Awaiting payment" reports in Dashboard. This gives a wrong view of the actual number of invoices that are awaiting payment. Please list prepayments separately on a different line.11 votes -
Xero accounting app - Fully functional same as website.
It would be nice if the Xero app was fully functional like the website. I have clients that only use tablets and rarely use the website. Making the app identical to the website in feature would make it easier for them to do things

Dashboard - Remove the "Loading your transactions" message
Right now, the dashboard shows "Loading your transactions" for bank accounts far too often and for far too long. The dashboard should always show the current state of the user's accounts, not what is essentially an indeterminate progress bar. It would be more user-friendly to remove the message entirely because it doesn't give users any actionable information. If new transactions come in while the user is doing things, simply update the dashboard to indicate that there are new transactions to reconcile, even if the user just finished reconciling what was there before.

Option to turn off error messages and pop up notifications for the entire organisation.

Notifications - Screen to maintain settings for notifications
I think it would be great to have a screen to manage notifications settings.
This could present a long list of notifications for different things (e.g. for me the important ones are activity statement due soon, STP filing overdue).
For each item, the user could select if they want it active, how they want to be notified (e.g. header line, or in a widget), and whether to be emailed (very helpful for people like me who only log in once or twice a week and do a days work).As a side note, the first of my important ones was…
14 votesHi team, while not a feature wide control we've implemented a change leveraging Xero notifications service so you can set a reminder and stay on top of Activity Statement lodgments - Within the settings of this report you'll find a due date reminders tab where you can select a recipient and when you want the reminder to be sent.

Dashboard - Add Business Snapshot widgets

I would like on my dashboard 3 main tiles
1. Revenue by month, 3 mths 6 and 12 months shown as options
2. Expenses the same
3. Financial Position this year by Rev, Expenses & Profit.
Is this doeable???6 votes -
Organisations - Indication/Warning/Flag when changing organisation
It is too easy currently to click back/undo one too many times and end up inadvertently posting into a different organisation from the one you were working on.
I was showing a colleague how to do something in the Demo company, but I clicked back too many times and ended up making my dummy postings into a client's organisation instead.
For accountants and bookkeepers who have multiple clients and multiple transactions to post, this could create a lot of unnecessary work that can easily be avoided by some kind of indication that you are changing organisation.4 votesHi team, we understand wanting more of an indicator when you're entering data in the demo org, and with our new navigation experience you'll now have a banner at the top of the screen to let you know that you're in the demo company to avoid wasting time of data entry that should be in your actual org.
We want to be upfront that this banner is only applicable for the demo company, so not exactly what is being asked in this idea but hope it goes some way to helping in scenarios like has been shared here.🙏

My Xero
It would be nice if My Xero could allow sorting by the number of unreconciled transactions. Being able to sort by the number of comments would be nice too
3 votesHi Christine, just making sure I understand what you'd like to see here. Would this be to sort all organisations you have access to from your My Xero page ordered by the # of unreconciled items ?

Notifications - Ability to create custom notifications
CUSTOM STAFF / BUSINESS NOTIFICATIONS
This page states I can set up custom notifications in the business section under features and notifications but this is not available in my xero, only 'practice organizations' have these features.
I want to be able to set up notifications or reminders for my staff. For example to follow up a sent quote or other tasks.
Also, I think quotes should have the same reminder system as invoices as I think this will assist with getting quotes accepted.

Navigation | Tab headings - Remove the word Xero, leave title of tab
Is there a way that we could see the names of opened Tabs so that we could see the name of what we are working on such as Balance Sheet instead of seeing Xero | Balance Sheet. When we open HST/HST returns, it shows GST/HST Returns which is great.
We know we are with in Xero. If Xero has to show up, it could be added to the end of the Tab heading. This way, opened Tabs would be a breeze to drag in alphabetical order. This would also facilitate working with Workona resources to put Tabs in alphabetical order.1 voteThank you for sharing your idea and highlighting the changes that are most important to you.
We have reviewed your suggestion, and it is now available for community review and support. Please share it with your colleagues who would benefit so they can add their vote and detailed comments on how this improvement would enhance their experience with Xero.

Demo Company - Clear ALL, don't reset, optional data reload and cloning
This idea has been raised again and again but XERO isn't listening!!!
The demo company is a great idea, but it makes no sense to automatically reload all the "duff" data every 30 days.
It's VERY simple to achieve a very useful and flexible feature, by....
1) Be able to clear all the data in the Demo Company
2) Make the 30 day reload of useless data optional
3) Enable cloning of an existing organisationWe need to be able to test imports, features etc. and be able to return the "demo company" to EMPTY and if required to restore…

Xero Accounting app | Reconciliation - Show tax for suggestions
Hi, on the mobile app, it would be really helpful, if when reconciling bank entries, when xero comes uip with its "suggestion", that is also displays the VAT line. Saves having to go into the suggeestion edit and check VAT is applied correclty
1 voteHi Ray, we understand how helpful it'd be to see the VAT/tax line directly on the automated reconciliation suggestion in the Xero Accounting mobile app. Currently, the mobile reconciliation suggestion card doesn’t show the tax line, which means extra taps and added steps.
This idea is now in the Gaining Support stage. Your votes and comments help us understand how important this feature is to the wider Xero community and guide our product team’s priorities.
