Projects - Assigning tasks within a Project to individual employees
We would find the facility to assign tasks to individual employees very helpful. We have large Projects over summer where various contractors/employees are required to do individual tasks on the Project. During this busy period, multiple tasks are added to each Project. Ideally we would like those personnel only seeing what they are assigned to, so as there is no confusion on who should be doing which task.
I've attached an example of how this could look.3 votesThanks for submitting your idea on Xero Product Ideas. We appreciate you taking time to let us know how we could improve Xero for you.

Create a project from an accepted quote
Once a quote has been accepted, it should be able to create a project that can track the expenses and labour related to that quote/invoice.

Xero Projects add ability to apply sales tax to markup on an expense that was tax exempt
Add ability to apply sales tax to a markup on an expense that was tax exempt.
Currently a tax exempt expense (building permit fees paid to municipalities, example $100) are tax exempt. I would markup this expense if paid on behalf of a client (10%, total $110). When adding the expense to an invoice I can either apply sales tax to the entire $110, or mark the expense as tax exempt. I am forced to ignore the markup feature in Xero projects then create a separate line on invoices "Expense markup + HST" which is less than ideal.

project naming
Here’s a clearer version you could use as a Xero feature request:
It would be really helpful if Projects could be filtered or sorted properly by Project Name.
We use sequential numbers as our project names, and we are now well over project number 10,000. At the moment, Xero appears to sort the project names as text rather than numerically. This means that projects beginning with “1” are grouped together, so newer project numbers such as 10,000+ can appear before much older project numbers.
This makes it quite difficult to quickly determine what the next available project number should be.…1 voteThanks for submitting your idea on Xero Product Ideas. We appreciate you taking time to let us know how we could improve Xero for you.

bulk-edit function for Project expenses
Please add a bulk-edit function for Project expenses, allowing multiple expenses to be changed from chargeable/markup to non-chargeable at once, or set a project-wide default. This would save significant time.
I would like to request a bulk-edit function for Project expenses.
I have a large number of expenses assigned to a project which are not chargeable to the client. At the moment, each expense has to be opened individually and the Charge field changed from % markup/chargeable to Non-chargeable, then saved.
This is extremely time-consuming when dealing with a large number of expenses, particularly where the expenses are linked to…

Project Info Menu
Project Info menu - For each project, add a "Project Info" menu so that we can include some brief information on the project. For example, Description of Works (i.e. New build; Renovations; New Office Addition; Pool works etc.), Project Start Date, Estimated Project Completion Date, Contract Number, Contract Sum, Site Foreman Name etc.

Reminder notes for files to be uploaded each month or quarter
It would be handy to have a checklist on the dashboard that can be edited and ticked off when completed, such as files needed to be uploaded each month or quarter for BAS lodgement - eg; Shopify fees report, Paypal fees report, Airbnb fees report. So as we reconcile the transactions we don't have to upload a single file per transaction, just the one report at end of month or quarter and actually remember to upload the file :)

Bulk add tracking Categories to bills (not just invoices)
I add a lot of bills and spend a lot of time adding tracking categories one by one to each item line. I want the ability to do this in bulk for many item lines at once. This has just been completed for invoices but it would be just as (if not more!) useful to be able to do this when editing bills.

Projects - Assign New staff to all Projects in Bulk
It would be great to have the ability to assign New staff to all existing Projects without having to open each Project individually. Perhaps a multi select drop down. Currently I am having to open 40 projects and add the new staff member in one at a time.

Xero Projects - Have an option to "mark all untracked expenses as invoiced"
We have a large project with countless numbers of invoices assigned to the project. I would like an option to be able to "mark all untracked expenses as invoiced" so that we can see what has already been invoiced to the client and so that we can work out more accurate profitability figures. At present, each individual invoice needs to be marked off separately and this can take hours to mark them all off, particularly if the project is large.
Xero currently provides an option to "Mark all times as invoiced", so having the option of "Mark all expenses as…10 votes -
Make projects better
Projects - Make the entire Projects experience better. Today is May 17th 2024, there are currently 300+ ideas, suggestions, and requests here related to Projects, few of which have even been responded to by Xero. It seems clear that Projects is the red-headed step-child of the Xero platform, always the last to the table when the development team starts talking about updates.
For those of us who run project-based businesses, the features requested on these pages are CRITICAL to our ability to understand how our business is doing. I'm calling on Xero to put more energy into building out Projects…

Projects - Ability to edit time of users who have left
I use Projects as timesheets for my staff in my contracting business, and it has worked well for the past two years. I do not use Xero process staff wages, I use ACE Payroll.
After a staff member leaves, I delete them from Projects, as it costs me $7.50 per month per person, and when you have between 20-25 staff, it can get quite expensive.
Once I delete a staff member from Xero, I cannot change any of their time entries. The reason I need to do this is usually because they have allocated his/her time against the wrong project.

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!

Projects - See a list of spend money transactions not allocated to a project

Projects - Include supplier name in Tasks & Expenses
When in Projects - Tasks & Expenses - it would be really handy if the supplier name was included.
When adding bills, I have to remember to add the supplier name in the bill description before adding the bill info.

Project Summary Reports - Include estimated expenses
Creating projects in Xero is a great and useful function. Creating estimated expenses inside of the projects is even greater. However, those estimated expenses not showing estimated costs to complete the project is a missing crucial feature for me. Currently the estimated costs do not show in projects summary reports unless there are expenses towards that estimated expense item. This is a major flaw because anyone wanting to track estimated expenses needs to know the estimated costs to complete on all projects.
Similarly, projects will zero cost or revenue do not show up on project summary reports. This is also…

Expense Claims - Split expense claims over multiple projects
Ability to be able to add multiple line items to expense claim bill, like a normal bill, when expense claims are submitted through Xero Me. When a singular cost is associated with multiple jobs, being able to add a second or third line etc to divide this cost within the bill and assign to project accordingly would be far better than having to upload the same expense claim multiple times with different portions of costs allocated.
When in "Bill Expense Claims" once the expense claim has been approved, under the "Bill Options" there is only the option to "Void" unlike…

Projects - Keep items in the same order when invoicing
When creating an invoice from a project-keep items in the same order as they appear in the project. It is very confusing when all the items are in different places than they were in the project and I have to reorder everything.

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.
3 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.
