Tracking - Ability to search Category & Options
To be able to search the Tracking Categories on the set up page. Also to have a duplicate warning would be very helpful.
This search function would stop a Tracking number/ name, being entered twice. The list for us is very long!6 votesThanks for sharing your idea, and letting us know the changes that matter most for you, Louise.
Make sure you share your idea with any colleagues that this could benefit so they can add their vote too!

Projects: create different teams
In Xero Project it would be useful to create sub teams within the staff. For example, we have different office locations and would like to filter our reports, or view projects by those office locations.
6 votesHi Simon, are you making use of Tracking at present? If not I'd recommend looking into this for your teams in conjunction with using projects which have a finite date or life of a job.

Xero Projects - Search Tasks within a Project
We are a small consultancy firm and we do work for customers for multiple sites. We set up our projects where each task is a separate site. We need to be able to search for these tasks but the search option only allows searching at a project level. Can you please update the functionality to be able to search based on task name?

Projects detailed report - Adjust formatting of expenses in report
The projects detailed report shows the estimated expenses on separate lines to the actual expenses incurred against that estimate. It is a manual process in excel to move the expenses around so that the report can reflect Total estimate less total spent and balance remaining. While this information is available on the projects page, it can't be pulled out as a report which is frustrating.

Projects - Create Draft invoice in a new browser window
Automatically opens a new window when preparing Draft invoice from Projects Screen. This means the project screen stays open to do your next invoice rather than having to navigate back after you have approved your invoice.
6 votesHi team, just having a little play in Projects - while it won't work for Deposit or Project Amount creation, if you're creating an invoice from a Project for Tasks & Expenses you'll be able to hold down 'ctrl' while clicking on this option and should find this opens the Tasks and expenses screen in a separate browser tab.
Totally get this doesn't resolve the idea here, but wanted to share for those it helps 🙂

Projects - Save project and task selection when starting a timer
Project Timer - Please remember the task!
It would be great if the timer remembered the project and task I chose after starting the timer. I always choose the project and task, but when I come back to the app hours later to stop the timer, the timer is still running but it has forgotten the project and task I chose. So frustrating!
I used to use Toggl timer which always remembered what it was timing. Can this be changed? Cheers!5 votesHi everyone, thank you for sharing this suggestion. We understand why having the timer remember your last project and task selection could make time tracking feel smoother, especially when you are logging multiple entries against the same work.
Currently, the timer resets these selections after stopping, which means you need to manually choose the project and task again each time. For users tracking frequent or ongoing work, this can add extra steps and slow down the process.
I’ve updated this post to Gaining Support so we can continue tracking community feedback and gather more insights.

Xero Projects - Show calendar view
i just want to use one app for everything, a calendar view to see what i have booked in would be very useful. at the moment i don't get the best use out of xero i'm running my business of multiple apps putting a calendar in xero would mean i can run the business directly from the xero platform
we have quoting, invoicing we have the ability to take payments through the app on-site but i barely do any of that within xero because its lacking a calendar.
there is no point in having "projects" without a calendar to quickly…

Export Accounting Data - Export data with tracking categories split into columns
Add an option to export accounting data with tracking categories split into separate lines instead of combined in one field.
This would make exports much easier to use in other software, reduce manual data cleanup, and support clients who need to import Xero data into reporting tools or different accounting systems.

Projects - Assign multiple unassigned expenses to estimated expense
I would like to be able to select multiple unassigned expenses in projects to apply to an estimated expense at once.
5 votesHi Lisa, thanks for your engagement and letting us know the changes that matter to you in Xero Projects.

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…5 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.

Xero Projects - Allow Users to print their own timesheet
Limited Projects Users should be able to print a timesheet. Those who are subcontractors require their own records, and this saves duplication. Clients often require timesheets to be signed, and the person who entered the time is usually the best person to arrange this, however they cannot do so unless they can print their own timesheet.

Projects - Ability to assign to estimated expense category from the bills screen
When assigning a bill line to a project, it would be good to also be able to select the Estimated Expense category from this same screen rather than having to manually add from within the Project. Or at least be able to bulk assign from the Projects screen.

Projects - Ability to set a default tracking category
Number of fields for projects is really poor, I need a tracking category added to projects so for example we can have four different types of projects which I want to categorise in the initial project set up. When costs and revenue are then allocated to this project it's also automatically allocated to the tracking category associated. At the moment I'm having to manually allocate to every transaction. Would be made easier if like sage they had a copy above function but we don't even have that either, so clicky!

Projects - Option to default bills & expenses to non-chargeable
Within Xero Projects, we would like the functionality to be able to amend the project setting so that we can set the default to non-chargeable for bills and expenses rather then the current automatic % markup.
The current approach means that the project reporting shows bills outstanding when they aren't particularly relevant when you have contractors delivering the work for an agreed price. at the moment we have to go into each category and amend each line item

XPM and Projects Integration
Some integrations require firms to have XPM for their practice manager software. Xero blue synchs with XPM but Xero Projects does not - which presents a real issue when trying to use XPM integrations like FYI

Projects - To do list / check list
It would be really helpful to be able to add yes / no, to do / complete or custom field options to tasks rather than time. Not all tasks get billed for the time spent, but all tasks have to be completed. Being able to check them off would be great. IF you can then have Job / Project templates even better, as a project can be created with these already on there

Projects - Improved reports & data fields for estimating
When developing a quote via Projects, we can add in an estimated cost and then enter a margin to give an estimated expense. However we cannot then retrospectively see what the original supplier cost is and therefore profit expected. Neither does it offer a field to enter who the supplier is. The Project financial reports have a header to show 'estimated cost' but it does not populate this field. The only time a cost is shown is if it is entered as an actual expense.
Ideally we would want to see estimated costs, the margin added and the supplier during…

Projects - Keep timer on all pages
Hi - could the Timer appear on other Xero pages, not just the Projects page? So when the timer is started, it stays on the screen when we move between Dashboard, Business, Accounting etc. That would be great. Thanks.

Projects: Include labour costs from Gusto integration
I need to be able to track all my project expenses, including labor costs, for each project. All the labor data is already in Gusto, my payroll provider. Currently I have to create a report in Gusto then manually enter the data in Xero. I also have to manually maintain two lists of the same projects: one list in Xero, and one list in Gusto. I would like the Projects in Xero to synchronize (two way) with the Projects in Gusto. I would also like to be able to pull (or synch) the project labor cost from Gusto to Xero.
