Customer properties
any way to assign properties to Customers?
example - we hire 10ft, 20ft and 40ft containers, so for every customer I tick their appropriate container.
this way if i need a report on all customers who have a 20ft container, job is easy and fast
In Sap B1 this is available as per pic attached
1 voteHi David, this may depend on how many and if the 'properties' are constant in your business, however it sounds like Tracking might be a way for you to monitor and run reports for these sort of assignments?

Company standard due dates on contacts
Contacts due dates to be set as a standard company wide setting unless changed within the individual contact.
For example as a company we work on the basis that all payments and receipts are due 30 days from invoice, this should be able to be entered within the company settings and should already be filled in when creating a new contact.
2 votesThis is essentially how the Default setting within the Invoice Settings work, Samantha. If you've set a default due date in this screen it'l apply to any invoices you create for all contacts, the only time it is overridden is if you have saved a default due date on an individual contact record, or manually change this within the individual invoice.

Contacts - Days after due date
Discovered an error. In the customer settings, when placing 0 in the field for “Days invoice when due” shows an error, despite Xero using 0 when calculating when an invoice is due.
2 votesHi David, I've just tested adding '0' in the contact record for a customer and saving and don't receive an error. If you're still seeing this behaviour when trying to save '0' for days due after the invoice I'd recommend creating a case with our specialists at Xero Support to take a closer look into this with you. Thanks

file library to dashboard
I would find it helpful to be able to add 'file library' to my dashboard. I have to upload receipts for on account purchases through the month in preparation for the end of month statement and it would speed things up to be able to open file library from dashboard
1 voteHi Sandra, while there isn't a button directly on the dashboard you can easily navigate to the Files library from anywhere in Xero using the keyboard shortcut '/f'. 🙂

Bills - Link to view historic bills from the same contact from the bill entry screen.
When entering a bill make an easy link to view historic bills which have been paid
1 voteHi Susanne, you can right-click on the supplier name, and select 'Open Link in New Tab'.
This will open the contact's Activity screen in a separate browser tab, showing their previous invoices/bills. 🙂

List of customers and date entered on Xero
Would like an option to list customers and the date they were entered on Xero and time they've been a customer for.
4 votesSorry for not engaging this idea sooner, and thanks for your comment here, Freya!
As shown in the image - If you click on 'Name' to the left of your contacts list you'll see a drop down of options including the ability to select 'Date added' which will re-order your contacts based on the date they were added to your organisation in Xero.

files
After uploading a file, one must select account and what it is (bill, invoice, expense, spend money)etc, before you see what it is. I should be able to open file, add all the details, while viewing the image/document
3 votesHi Tonya, it's currently possible to view a file you've uploaded to the library before having to add it to a transaction. Just click on the file name.

Allocate Contact Groups from Contact Page
Allocate Contact Groups from Contact Page
At the moment you have to go into each individual contact to allocate a group, it would be beneficial to be able to allocate the group from the contact page.
1 voteYou can add contacts to groups from the main Contact list page, Jane 😊
Simply select the contacts you'd like to add to a group then click the Add to group option on the left header.

link invoices to contacts so can see them easily from contact view
If I want to see all invoices for a customer, I have to go to invoices and filter in various ways to get the results I want. This seems counterintuitive. I would expect to go to the customer under contacts and be able to see all information relevant to that customer including invoices.
2 votesHi Nicola, you can see all invoices for a customer from the Activity tab of their Contact record. There are options to either view all, or just Invoices or Bills. From the tab it's also possible to filter the invoices by Status or other options.

Receipt Upload
Have an option that allows you to drag and upload receipts from desktop
5 votesHi team, we're going to move this idea across to delivered. As mentioned in my last update there are a few automated ways you could get your receipts into Xero.
You can;
- drag & drop your receipts into your files library, from here you could then create a bill from the file, or
- if you're using Xero expenses when you create a new expense claim you can drag & drop files from your computer directly onto the left hand of the screen

Accessibility - Allow files in the inbox to be renamed without requiring a mouse
If you aren't using a mouse, files in the inbox can only be acted upon by using the checkbox and then tabbing to the buttons at the top of the inbox. You can open the kebab button to the right, but then you can't action any of the options on the pop up menu using spacebar or enter, which are the usual button-press keys.
It takes infinite button presses to go from the top of the screen to a file halfway down and then all the way up to the top to action it, but eventually you get there. So…
1 voteHey Freya, 👋 thanks for raising this idea. I'm popping in to switch it across to delivered! We have recently made some changes to the Files pages, and this includes support for keyboard only interactions for the kebab menu 🎉

Contacts - Edit option on Financial Details tab to link to Financial Details section
If I'm looking at the "Financial Details" tab for a contact, when I click the "Edit" button, I should be taken to the "Financial details" section of the "Edit contact" page. Currently, it takes me to the first section, which happens to be "Contact details".
1 voteHi everyone, coming back over the idea here this idea has now been implemented with other changes in Contacts.
Now, when you select to edit a contact from Financial details tab you'll automatically be directed to the Financial details section when the edit screen opens. 🎉

Contacts - Money in/out graph from the contact overview Why removed?
Why has this been removed? I genuinely can't understand any good reason for doing so from a Xero user perspective. Please reinstate as soon as possible! It is such a helpful, immediate visual tool to be able to qet a quick insight into a client, or suppliers, payment history and patterns of behaviour. It highlights immediately where there may be gaps and is something I (and others in our business) make use of on a daily basis. Additionally, as someone who benefits from visual learning, to completely take this option away is hugely disappointing. I'm now faced with a page…
95 votesHi all, if you hadn’t already spotted, the Money in/out graph is back 🎉
It shows the cash in and out over last 12 months, and you can still mouse over the graph to show the actual amounts. The bars now have a minimum size for visibility! In the old graph depending on the difference in cash amounts the smaller bar would sometimes not be visible.
With this updated version you can switch to a table view that was added for our accessibility users/ those who prefer seeing a table rather than a graph. You can also choose to show or hide the graph entirely, just use the overflow menu above - see screenshot for illustration.
Thanks again for all your feedback on this change, we’re glad to be able to bring back an improved version!

Contacts - Attach file to contact from file library
Can I also please say, how frustrating it is that you can not now attach a file to a contact from the file library. This is how we have always attached our end of month creditor statements, that are emails to us, we have always forwarded these directly the file library, re name as required and then attach to the contact from the file library when completing the checking process for each creditor. This now will mean that statements can not be forwarded directly from the creditor email but will have to now be saved into a PC desktop file…
76 votesHi team, we've now released the ability to upload files directly from your computer to a contacts record! As noted in our last update, you'll find;
- The file library uploader option is now back on the Files tab of the Contact overview
- We display all files (including previously attached ones) allowing you to attach a file to multiple documents (e.g. Contact, Invoices…)
- We've enabled the ability to add multiple files from file library in one go
Thanks again for all your feedback around this and we appreciate you staying tuned to the idea here. 🙂

Files - Move the Upload File option to the top of the page
Please add the upload files / upload from library feature to the top of the list, I add my statements to my suppliers each month and have to scroll all the way down through years of documents to get to the upload feature.
1 voteHey! This function has changed and the 'Upload file' button is now toward the top of the screen 🥳

Contacts - View accepted Quotes
When you view a contact, you are able to see outstanding invoices and quotations from this contact. But it will be helpful to see quotations that have been accepted by this contact to make invoicing easier.
3 votesHi community, as shared in my last update you can view both draft and accepted quotes from the Activity on a Contacts record.
I've attached an example I created in the demo co. 🙂

Contacts (UK) - Add a tax number with a VAT country of 'None'
This is a basic need. In the past, it was possible to set VAT country as NONE to add the tax number, now in the new UI is not possible, since the UI requires selecting a country. Please fix that as soon as possible, since we need to add the tax number on the invoice to non-EU countries!!!

Contacts - Search for invoices in customer/supplier records
It would be great if we could search from within a customer or supplier record for a specific invoice or bill number.
It is difficult at the moment to search as
1) there are always notes in the way that can't be hidden
2) you have to exit the customer/supplier to find the screen where a search is available.Having used other accounting packages, I was shocked to see this wasn't available within Xero.
7 votesHi team, sorry we've not returned to this idea sooner. You'll find with some of the updates we've made to the contacts record it is now possible to view transactions in separate tabs within the Activity of a Contact, and are also able to search transactions in the tab by amount, reference or invoice number 🙂
