My Xero | Organisation - Make the whole box clickable rather than just name
This is a minor User Interface bug that has been bugging me for years.
Basically, almost every time I go to the my.xero.com Organisations page I end up clicking and waiting then realising I haven't clickedin the special place that works. The user interface here is misleading. Whenever your mouse curse enters the large box containing the name of one of your companies, that whole line highlights. But the only place you can click to actually get it to go to that company's dashboard is the text of the company name.
Everywhere else in xero, you can click in the…

Navigation - Quick access to last few pages accessed
On the taskbar, it would be useful to have a dropdown option to link through to the last few pages that you have accessed. Maybe the last 10 pages accessed would be good, a mixture of recent searches and recent transactions. I know QBO has this and I use it a lot for navigating.
For example, when I run a P&L and drill down to a specific bill, sometimes I would make an amendment to said bill. When I save and go back it spits me out at the CoA when I want to return to the P&L. So instead…
3 votesHi team, appreciate the thoughtful feedback in your idea here and while not a complete solve for what's being asked I did want to highlight for this specific scenario you may find favouriting reports useful. This will make that report easily navigable from the Reporting menu in our new navigation 🙂
Also, just another tool that might help to find items that have recently been edited - the History & Notes could be used and filtered to quickly see what transactions have been edited.
While we don't have immediate plans for enabling these sort of breadcrumbs our teams are continuously thinking about the logic and flows as they keep developing Xero features.

Demo Company - Reset date countdown
Hi - it would be great if there was an indication on the Demo company when the data will be reset. We know it is every 28 days but when is the 28 days up. I've lost demo testing in preparation to show a client how Xero can help them.

Navigation - Return to previous screen after viewing/editing a transaction
Ability to return to the previous screen after the user edited a transaction.
Purpose: To make users easily continue working on the previous page rather than having to navigate from the different page again.
111 votesHi everyone, thanks for all your support and feedback of how changes in navigation could help your use of Xero. While not across all areas of the product there are some updates in Bills that we wanted to share and may help the needs of some in the idea here.
We've launched Bills quick view where there's now an eye icon within the line of the bills list. From here you'll find more ease in viewing, and more recently being able to edit bills from this view without having to leave the list, meaning you can simply make adjustments and move from one bill to the next.
We'll continue to explore and develop solutions like this to help our customers get more out of Xero on the go. I'll keep you informed of other updates that could enhance your experience, here.

Xero Accounting app - Organisation Switching in "Share/Context" menu
Introduce the ability on the Xero Mobile app to switch between "organisations" in the context menu of the operating system.
I have 4 different Xero entities that I need to upload receipts to, and to have to go into the app each time change the organisation before I can upload is time consuming.

Organisation Settings - Set default date format to DDMMYYYY for South African orgs
The date format for South Africa is incorrect. We use a day month year format, not the American month day year format. Surely Xero can change this so its adaptable for each country and preference? Its not asking a lot of work to have that additional option. But can cause a huge issue when its not what we work with.

Dashboard - Business Overview Graphs
It would be nice to have a business overview dashboard similar to QuickBooks. The existing Xero dashboard is designed for bookkeepers and doesn’t have any valuable insights for business owners. Perhaps it would be better to have two different tabs on the dashboard, one for bookkeepers, and another one for business owners.
P.S.
Numbers of the screenshot are from a demo account7 votes -
User logins - Client to see a login by the practice, rather than individual users
As a firm of around 25 accountants, we all may need access to a particular client at any point in time. Currently however, the client is aware of each individual user (i.e. 25 users) rather than an as a practice.
It would be therefore be good if Xero operated like Sage or QBs whereby the client only sees the practice as having access to their data.

Xero Interface - Select/Highlight details on page without automatically following link
Select/Highlight Xero web page details without automatically following link
Most web links allow for text and links to be selected/highlighted by clicking, holding and dragging for additional options when the selection is right clicked (copy, print etc.)
It seems unintuitive when attempting to select/highlight (clicking and dragging over text) items in Xero, such as invoice numbers, that the page immediately follows the link as though clicked.
It is often useful to select text for simple copying, or highlight specific sections for printing on web pages, but this behavior prevents that basic utility.3 votes -
Dashboard - Ability to view NET figures
I would like to be able to see net owing on my Dashboard. Not having the ability to see a separate net figures means that without calculating vat, I can never see the true position of the business finances.

When using the back arrow or clicking on the x - can we have a message to say...

This is to omit leaving a page without saving your work.

Xero UI - Unify date selectors
At a quick count there at least three different date selectors used in Xero. This makes it clunky for users and some date selectors are functionally outdated. Examples, the date selector used in Invoices (best) vs the one used in Reports (worst) vs the one used in Leave.
Use the same date selector(s) across the entire product. One that allows for:
- Keyboard entry of date(s), multiple formats eg 23/08/23 as well as 23 Aug 2023 (Invoices does this)
- Shortcuts like 'This financial year' etc - where applicable
- Quick year jumps (unlike the date selector in Reports -…3 votes -
Dashboard - Ability to change the columns from the standard two to three or four
Dashboard - Ability to change the columns from the standard two to three or four.
This would give me more flexibility to see all the data in one place without having to scroll down to see all our accounts.
33 votesHi all, we appreciate feedback we've received about improvements we could make to the Dashboard that'd better serve your needs. You may've heard that we have a new Homepage that'll replace the Dashboard and will be released to all customers over the next few months.
With updated technology the new Homepage is much more responsive and will adapt based on your device, screen size and zoom functions to show a maximum of 4 widgets side-by-side. 😊
I'll keep you looped in on when this is available to everyone, but in the meantime if you'd like to try it out jump into the demo company!

Dashboard | Customise Cash in and out - Include Transfers
Currently the "Total Cash In and Out graph" on dashboard shows the total cash received and the total cash spent through all of the bank accounts in Xero. This graph excludes transfers between bank accounts as don't they affect the overall total.
It would be nice to be able to customize that graph to exclude certain transactions. Ie. if a shareholder loan is made, this would show up as cash in.

Navigation | Edit display picture for organisations in dropdown
It's very hard to tell multiple organizations apart, particularly if they have the same initials. Currently, Xero simply displays the organizations' initials. It also assigns a random color to each organization. It would help distinguish these greatly if the organization settings allowed me to upload an avatar for each organization. Xero's Demo Company already illustrates how this feature would look. Also, it would help edit the color Xero assigns so that the color could match each organization's branding.
12 votesWe appreciate your feedback on the new navigation here thanks for sharing!
Our product teams are closely monitoring all inputs we are receiving from customers on this. We'll keep a close eye on the interest this idea builds here and share if there are any updates.

Dashboard - Add a quarter to date (QTD) column to the Accounts Watchlist
Please can a QTD column be added on the Accounts Watchlist rather than This Month? A quarterly client is requesting this as they view the Dashboard regularly and this would be extremely useful to them.

Xero Accounting app - Link to Google Drive to upload multiple pictures
I’d like to be able to use Google drive on the app and be able to share links to any given file.
For example: Unit (apartment units) turnovers require multiple pictures (before and after).1 vote
