Projects - Invoicing time spent with fixed price tasks
We use the project and task options for all our projects.
Each of our tasks within individual project folders have fixed prices. These fixed prices are often of a substantial amount, with projects scheduled to run up to and at times over a year.
We invoice each task/project for time spent each month till the project is completed.
I would like to have the option to invoice against time spent at the end of each month on each fixed price tasks within each project.
This is currently proving to be a nightmare with options for invoicing time spent only being…3 votesThanks for sharing how you use and price for projects, Rebecca.
Being open we don't have any planned changes for your idea here, however it'd be good to get a sense of interest from others in community that'd like to price projects in this manner.
We'll keep an eye on this here, and share if there are any updates.

Projects - Description field when adding an Expense
It would be useful if when manually adding an expense to a project, there could be a description box available as well as entering the expense name. We sometimes need to elaborate on those costs for the numerous people looking at that expense but there is no-where to put this information unless it's added to the expense name.
3 votesHi Nicola, really appreciate you taking the time to share this idea. Right now, the only place to add detail when recording an expense in a project is the Expense Name field, which is limited to 100 characters. You can consider this as a workaround to include a short description with the title— but we know that it’s not an ideal solution when you need to provide more context or add a professional level of detail.
This idea is now in the Gaining Support stage. If you’ve found creative ways to work around this or have thoughts on what a proper description field should include, we’d love to hear them. The more insight we get from real workflows, the more helpful it is in shaping future updates.
We look forward to seeing more discussions on this idea.

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 -
Project - Show Days elapsed vs remaining
In Xero Projects --> Time it will show "Deadline 31 May 2024 80 days to go"
Instead could it show "56 days elapsed and 80 days to go", or a percentage of the days elapsed to give it a scale the same way the invoiced and timesheeted hours headings do.
You could treat the first day as the first time entry on the project, so no need to add a field to manually set the project start date.

Projects - Assign multiple tasks to employees
In the last week the ability to add multiple tasks to new employees has been taken away, you can still add all jobs but without the ability to add all tasks or some as well that feature is now useless.

Project - Feature to use a Task to add cost variations
The ability to add a Project (Revenue) Variation would be a huge help.
If one can add a project (cost) variation using a Task, adding a Revenue variation should be achievable in Xero3 votes -
Tracking - categories listed in the dashboard
Adding a Categories/Tracking column to the transactions Dashboard. this would highlight the fact that a category label is missing. so when running the budget variances the report would include ALL the transactions for a specific category.

Projects - Ability to favourite and show in Projects menu
Projects - it would be really helpful if we could select Projects as favourites (with the star like in reports) so when we click on the Projects heading we see our favourites in the drop down list, like we do with reports we use frequently. See image for example.

Projects - Order invoices by date
When converting xero projects / Invoice
6 employees work for the last month gets dumped on to the invoice in alphabetical order and from the latest date they worked
The client needs to see this in cronological order and with each task for the said date
eg
1 July
Dave
Fred
jim2 july
Dave
Fred
JimAt the moment this task of ordering said invoices can take about half an hour of ferrying each transaction up and down the page. Before Editing
So needs a filter button installed to do this please

Tracking - Restrict categories and tracking combinations
Ability to restrict the 2nd category tracker to a 1st category item.
Eg - Category 1 is the property, Category 2 is the tenant.
When we have multiple properties in an entity it would be great to be able to restrict tenant category to only relate to the 1 property that the tenants are for. This would help to stop a mis-match of property/tenant.

Projects - Add date of the expense onto the tasks & expenses screen
In the Projects | Tasks & expneses, can we please add in the date??
I understand that the date can be accessed by opening the bill or viewing the bill, but this is very tedious AND if you open the bill, you can't easily find your way back to the particular bill you were looking at (the screen jumps back to the top).
It is extremely difficult to navigate these expenses when there are hundreds of them attached to the project, so having the bill date here would be SO much more convenient.3 votes -
Projects - Add Invoice Paid Column to Project Summary Report
We've started using Projects and I've created a test project, sales and purchase invoice and have marked the sales invoice as paid.
However the project summary report doesn't show that the client/sales invoice has been paid and this is so important for us to be able to plan our payment run for the direct costs relating to that client/project.
Can this field be added to the report?

Projects | Task Invoice - Show detail of time associated to task
Project invoicing to show time in minutes/hours for time entries
This is a requirement of many of our customers. Eg time sent 30 mins shows as 0.5 on invoice. We need a column that shows time for the task time enry. At present we need to manually type 30 mins in the task description to meet customer invoicing requirements.3 votes -
Projects | Mobile app - Increase expense description character limit
When I post an expense through to a project, for some reason it limits it to 100 characters, which pretty much makes it un-useable for me.
This is annoying, as I was just thinking how handy the projects app is, but now all the "projects" I've set up are basically a waste of time as I need the extra detail on my invoices.
Please can you change this?3 votes
