Tracking Categories - Increase maximum number of active tracking categories and tracking options
More Tracking Categories Fields: please would you consider increasing the number of Category fields? Currently there's only 2 fields and in a situation where you want to track complex sales cycles and sources, this is not sufficient.
For example - tracking a referring business, a partner account manager, a salesperson and a client account manger.
Having categories allows to perform calculations of revenue generated, its sources etc.

Bank Reconciliation - Add Tracking Category to Transfer
when using tracking categrories it would be useful to be able to add the tracking category to a bank transfer, instead of going through find and match and the adding a transfer.

Invoicing - Apply tracking category automatically after creation
When you need to create a new tracking option in the sales invoice screen, you have to search for it again after you have just created it.
This used to work where it would keep the tracking option you just created but now you have to then search for it to select it again.

Flagging particular transactions with keywords
It would be helpful to have a way to tag files with searchable keywords that can be searched globally. Example, if i want my accountant to be alerted to particular set of transactions or one transaction , if can add a seaarchable keyword in the reference or notes field that would be appreciated.

Simple scheduling calender
Basically calendar to add draft invoices to, to use as a job scheduling calendar.
Add draft invoices/job to a date add basic detail to the schedule day and it saves the detail in the description row on invoice with the date.
Each time you add an invoice to a date and you add detail it adds new row with simple details
Once finished you finalize draft invoice as normal.

Tracking certificate insurance expiration and prevent bill from being submitted if COI is expired
Certificate insurance is a big part of our company's operation. Xero needs to include a mandatory compliance option for companies to implement. When a compliance requirement, e.g., a certificate of insurance, is due to expire in 30 days, the system should prevent bills from being submitted for payment until compliance is met.

departments to match specific budgets
It would be useful for the AI tool or even just a standard report to check if Department matched Budget. E.g. we have a Central department and all Central budgets start with Central. E.g Central: Stationery, Central: Web services. Or alternatively Xero to automatically allocate all Stationery purchases to Central Dept.

Tracking Categories - Bank Feed Rules
We use location codes to sperate our transactions by site or (cost centre). I tried to create a bank rule to allow the transaction to be dynamically allocated to an individual location, depending on the location appearing in the transaction description.
I have been told that this does not currently exist.
4 votesHi Peter, thanks for sharing this idea about having the option for setting tracking categories in bank feed rules. This idea is now in Gaining Support status, which means it's open for the community to show their support through votes and comments. We encourage others who would find this useful to add their votes and share how they'd use this functionality. We'll keep an eye on the feedback and engagement this receives.

Mandatory Tracking Categories Option - MTD is here!
With the advent of MTD in the UK where Tracking categories are going to be THE de facto way of splitting Business, Property, and Personal transactions it is crucial that we have the option of making tracking categories mandatory.
I see that this request was made many years ago - and that last year Xero said they weren't going to implement it AND turned off comments for the idea!
It needs reviewing - and it can't be a technical nightmare to implement.

Invoice Tracking
It would be good if there was a way to automatically populate or bulk apply the same department and staff member across all lines on an invoice. Ideally, a feature that allows this information to be applied once to the entire document would significantly improve efficiency.
I might have 20 lines on an invoices and if all items sold refer to the same department and salesperson it would facilitate if I could click on button and repeat these fields on the invoice. The invoice or bills pre setting only work if I am always using the same department and the…1 voteThanks for submitting your idea on Xero Product Ideas.

Access Tracking Categories under Accounting Menu
Please add a Tracking Categories shortcut in the Accounting menu, under Accounting Tools (like Chart of Accounts, Manual Journals, etc are). As a charity we use Tracking Categories all the time, for branches of work and for funds and grants, and it is frustrating to have several more steps to access now. Thank you!

Add Description/Comment field for tracking categories
It would be helpful if you could add a description or comment field to tracking categories. This would allow us to add keep category names concise and then add more information to in the description field so that we can describe things like how it is used, start and end dates for event tracking etc.

Tracking - Sub-category under options
Can we please add the ability to set up a sub-category under category options?
For instance, we have already tracking categories by store locations (i.e. Loc 1, Loc 2, Loc 3). However, we need to have a sub-category per Deputy's area (i.e. FOH, BOH) under the store locations.
Category option: Loc 1 (Store Location)
Sub-category option: FOH, BOH (Area)If we could set up a sub-category under tracking options, that would be great. Thank you!

Validity period for Tracking Category
We would like the possibility to assign a validity period to each new "Tracking Category" entry.
This would mean that you don't have to see all options every time the Tracking Category drop down list is selected e.g. when entering an invoice.
It would also help to limit the Tracking Category options available to employees, for example, when they enter their expenses.
2 votesHi Amanda, Tracking was originally designed to be used as a way to track and monitor parts of the business that did not have a lifespan like departments. Appreciate there are many different ways our customers have grown to use tracking, and we'll start to track the interest in this through your idea. But do want to be open that we don't have any plans for this at present.

Tracking - Increase tracking options limit
Hi there, we have been using tracking options for our projects and we have now reached the maximum number and reached the limit for it, but we don't want to delete the previous projects<. Just want to know, if we can increase options limit to numbers. Thank you.

Tracking - Ability to bulk Archive categories
We use tracking categories of building jobs. It would be great to archive the tracking category once the job it complete. Allowing a P&L by tracking category report to only show active jobs.

Tracking - "Add another option" at top of page
When you have a large number of Tracking category options and you wish to add another, you have to scroll heavily to get to the bottom of the list each time you wish to add another.
This is not time efficient. The option to add another tracking category option should be at the top of the page for simplicity and time management of the XERO user3 votes -
Tracking - Functionality for Rental Property Management
Have two codes - one for rental income & one for rental expenses.
When reconciling bank transactions to these codes, have the ability to allocate them to a property.
Have a feature where you can view the outstanding transactions for each property and select the transactions to go on the statement to the client for that month.
Auto generate the management fee for the month based on pre-selected criteria for that property - either % or fixed amount.
Auto generate a bill from this statement for the money that needs to be paid to the landlord.5 votesThanks for sharing and your interest in the idea here. Being open this isn't a feature we have any plans of implementing in the near term.
However, some of what's been described here can be achieved using Tracking. For example, you could create accounts in your Chart of Accounts for Rental Income and Rental Expenses. You'd then use a Tracking category for your Properties, listing each property as a separate option within that category.
Alternatively, if you're after more specific tools for managing properties we'd recommend looking into apps that can integrate with Xero and offer more services that could suit your business.

Xero Accounting app - Move favourite Tracking Categories to the top of the list
When adding bills in the app, I find myself searching for the same category over and over. On the desktop, a likely or previous category comes up automatically. That would be great in the app, too.
Failing that, it would be good if the list of categories contained frequently used categories first. I doubt anyone scrolls alphabetically, so it seems a useless feature to have.

Analytics - Filter by tracking category
It would be ideal to filter analytics (Business Snapshot) by tracking category and show only income/expenses for each Tracking Category on the dashboard e.g by Department/Region/Product etc.
