  1. The ability to add an important or critial note in the main contact section would be hugely valuable. It could be for situations such as 'do not contact' - 'do not invoice until' - 'extended membership until'.
    If this idea was implemented it would save so much time with it showing on the contact landing page rather that searching for the info and it would also serve as a highlighted reminder of something important

  2. AU Tax - Display foreign income worksheet on printed return
    Can you please ensure that the Individual Foreign Income Worksheet is generated and included when printing the ITR in PDF, even if the foreign income relates to dividends or interest (and not foreign rental property)?
    This way, the worksheet will be attached to the PDF ITR, allowing the client to review the foreign income details. At present, the main form only displays the converted AUD amount, so including the worksheet will provide transparency around the original foreign figures

  3. Would be great to be able to assign a special rate to a particular client so that rate generates each time you invoice that client and also add tick box to mark as bad debtor which flags them up.

  4. As an audit trail of bank account changes it would be good to include evidence of the bank account details, most likely from an image or upload - the current setup only allows written notes, not any images / uploads.

  5. Easy way to see total money spend or money received for a contact for a set date range (year to date, this month, custom range). Ideally, be able to track this vs other contacts in the dashboard, eg, highest spending customer, most important suppliers etc. All the data is there but currently requires creating a report or exporting to a spreadsheet which is counterproductive. Really surprised it’s not a feature already to be honest as I was doing this in spreadsheets before migrating into Xero.

  6. With the old display, I could open a document and then click through a full screen view of each. Now its only a half screen view and its too small to read some small EFTPOS receipts! I know I can open the document in a new window, but the next/back buttons are gone and each document needs to be opened. Please reinstate the next/back buttons!!!

  7. We would like an exportable / emailable report to show spends and bills in a period that are missing files / source documents.

    We could / would use this:
    - as a quick weekly review
    - monthly as part of month end
    - as part of GST prep
    - we work for clubs, and we would use this as part of annual pre-audit process for them - so the date range is important - as their year end is 31 Oct.

    Please make this a permanent feature or quickly accessiable report in Xero. Please also add it as a widget…

    Appreciate you sharing your idea in the forums here, Glennis. Sort of 2 pronged for a report as well as a widget I found another idea related to your first suggestion and added your vote for.

    Separately, we'll get a gauge of the interest from others in a widget in Xero Partner Hub for this purpose from your idea here.

  8. Accessing Reconcile is always two clicks away. A dedicated reconcile button on the menubar with option to choose account would be make an improved UI and UX

    Thanks for clarifying that further Darian. That is a great idea and we can see why that would be useful. We're moving this idea to gain further support from the community while find similar ideas to merge with your idea and add more support to it. Feel free to share this with your friends and colleagues so they can add their vote in as well :)

  9. i feel like the interface could benefit from a dedicated back button to always go back to previous screen.

    Hi Darian, thanks for raising this with us here. We would be keen to get some more information on the scenarios that you find yourself in where the back button in the interface as compared to the browser would be useful. While we wait for some more details, we wanted to show you an idea that may be similar to what you're suggesting, if this is similar to what you're suggesting please let us know and we'll be happy to merge your idea with this. :)

  10. I would like to be able to check mark the invoices being paid on the contact page where you look at the open invoices instead of going to a separate page to pay bulk invoices.

    Thanks for your feedback on being able to pay invoices and bills directly from the contact page.

    This isn’t something that’s on our current roadmap for invoicing, bills or payments. Right now we’re focused on other improvements in these areas, so there’s no planned work or timeframe we can share for adding a bulk “pay / receive payment” option from the contact view ⭐

    If this changes and the idea moves onto the roadmap, we’ll post an update on the Product Ideas page first so you can follow along:

  11. I want to be able to run a report of the quantity of a specific item that my contact or a group of contacts sell in a specific time period. not dollar amount, but an actual item or group of items.

    Thanks for your suggestion about reporting on the quantity of items sold per contact or contact group over a given period (rather than just the total dollar value). At the moment, Xero doesn’t have a specific report that shows “item quantity by contact or contact group”, and this isn’t on our current roadmap for inventory or reporting. Today, some customers approximate this using the Receivable Invoice Details report or Sales by Item report with filters and external pivots, but we know that’s not as simple as having a dedicated report.

    This idea is still open for votes and If this work does move onto the roadmap in future, we’ll post an update on this idea.

  12. Ability to add an expiration date or renewal date to files (Contract end date, Tax clearance certificates etc.) with reminders on when documents are up for renewal.

    Hi team, thanks for sharing your thoughts on adding expiry and renewal dates to files. It’s been useful to hear how this could support the management of compliance-related documents like insurance certificates and training records.

    The idea of having reminders for upcoming renewals is a practical one, particularly for teams working in compliance-heavy environments. We’ve moved this idea to Gaining Support, which means it’s now open for the wider community to add votes and comments. If this would be helpful for your business, feel free to share how you’d use it or any specific scenarios you have in mind — that context helps shape what we look at next.

    In the meantime, the current workaround is to track renewal or expiry dates outside of Xero, and archive expired files before uploading the updated versions when they’re ready.

  13. To activate the option to be able to sort files by ASSOCIATED WITH in addition to SIZE and UPLOADED. The enormous amount of files now sitting in Archive must have all three columns active to give us an option to locate our files ASAP.

  15. Be able to see a list of contacts, showing which groups each contact belongs to at a glance. Who are donors, who are equine related, who attend camp, which are organizations/business/church, who take lessons

  16. Configure Publish As options to exclude some options.
    We never post Sales Invoices, but sometimes supplier invoices are incorrectly publish as Invoice(AR).
    This is lengthy to undo.
    I would like to configure HubDoc to exclude the Invoice(AR) option

  17. It would be great if there was an extra prompt to confirm when deleting attachments from purchases/sales. Currently you only have to press the 'x' and the document is removed and there is no way to undo this if it is pressed accidently. If it prompted you to accept the delete you could say no and avoid this issue.

    We will be keeping an eye out on the traction this idea receives within the community, here. Thanks

  18. FINTECH requires Xero’s Contact ID for integration, but the Contact ID isn’t included in the contact export. They must be manually copied from the URL, which is slow and error prone.

  19. add to show the planned date for payment on the contact page where you can see all the bills as an option for the columns. so we can see if we have set up payment for each of the bills in the contact page for each contact/supplier.

  20. Before the update you could drag and drop directly into a folder in Xero Files. Now you have to drag and drop into the Inbox and then move from there. This created an extra step. It would be great if you could still have the option to drag and drop a document directly into the folder within the archive.
