Contact – check bank details reminder
Last Paid Date flag for Vendor or Check bank account details alert.
Increasing there is a need to check bank details for Suppliers - to make sure haven't changed. If a Supplier hasn't been used for many months, Xero doesn't prompt the bank details to be checked. We have had cases where the supplier changed owners and bank accounts but not informed us. The bank details weren't checked. it would be useful if we could have an alert or flag that prompts a check after 3 or 6 months.8 votesThanks for sharing this idea – it's a really practical suggestion.
We get how easy it is to miss checking bank details, especially for suppliers you haven’t paid in a while. A quick alert or reminder after 3–6 months of no activity could be a great way to help catch changes (like new ownership or account updates) before a payment goes through.
Your idea’s now live for others to see, vote on, and add their thoughts. If this would make things easier for your team, feel free to share it around.

Document Management - Fully Migrate Hubdoc Functionality into Xero User Interface
The HubDoc Ui/Ux is outdated, we all know it. But its a good product. With the addition of the "Upload Bills" feature to Xero, it would make sense to just bring the full functionality of HubDoc right into the Ui of Xero rather than invest in the standalone product of HubDoc. It keeps us on one screen within Xero and eliminates all the nuances of the sync/integration.
Maintaining backup to DropBox or Google Drive is key though. That makes it feel like a 'safe' backup method for receipts.
5 votesHi Collin 👋🏽
Thanks for submitting this important idea about integrating Hubdoc's full capabilities directly into Xero. This is a powerful suggestion for streamlining workflows and improving the overall document management experience.
We've reviewed your submission and are happy to classify it as Gaining Support!
Your post meets all the necessary criteria, and we confirm that the full range of Hubdoc functionality (including automated fetching and comprehensive processing) does not currently exist within the main Xero UI.
Your idea is now live and ready for community support! Please share this idea with colleagues who would benefit from a fully integrated document processing experience, so they can vote and share additional detail about how this change could improve their experience with Xero.

Credit control - customer 'on stop' function required
Can you please have the function to place a customer 'on stop' until payment has been made.
Credit controller needs the visibilty to see that a customer has been placed on stop pending payment and show in the history date went on stop and why
Perhaps a colour visual like a red on stop button for instant awareness

Smart document capture - Defaults when reviewing files
Most of our receipt uploads are treated as spend money, using our main bank account.
Every time I review a receipt I have to select the document / transaction type and the bank account used.
Having a default with the option to change it would be good, or simply remember the last used values.2 votesHi Roger, appreciate you sharing your workflows here.
We understand you’re looking for Smart Document Capture to remember your usual settings, like contacts, accounts, and tax details, when reviewing similar documents in Xero.
Having these defaults available during review could help make recurring document processing quicker and reduce manual updates.
We’ll continue to follow the discussion and capture feedback from the community as this idea progresses.

Contacts - Default cursor to search
I'd just like the cursor to already be IN the search field when I open Contacts please.
Thanks24 votesWe understand why this idea is quickly gaining traction. Being able to start typing in the search bar as soon as the contacts page loads would be a small but meaningful improvement.
Right now, the cursor doesn’t land in the search bar by default, so it’s an extra click each time.
This idea's now in the Gaining Support stage. If it’s something that would make a difference to your workflow, adding your vote or comment helps us understand the wider demand—and gives our product team more to work with when prioritising updates.
We’ll post here with any changes or progress.

Files Inbox - Attach to an existing transaction
From the Files Inbox, there is a way to attach the file to a NEW transaction, but please allow it to be attached to an existing transaction too. This is especially useful when there are lots of files in the Inbox.
14 votesAppreciate why you'd like to be able to attach a file to an existing transaction from the detail you've shared here, Hitesh.
This isn't possible from the Files inbox atm, however as you may already be across - from the flip side you can attach a file from the Files inbox from within the transaction.
Do get this means having to go to the transaction to perform what you're asking and we'll get a sense of the interest in being able to attach to an existing transaction from within the Files inbox, here.

ABN automatic verification from ABN lookup website
In MYOB, the ABN details are automatically verified with a green tick and automatic verification window . Surely Xero could do something similar? Rather than relying on manual verification which is very lame

Hi Tiffany,
I'm wondering if you could provide more information on your product idea.
Currently, Xero uses the ATO's ABN validation system when setting up company details. Are you asking for Xero to validate ABN details for contacts and/or suppliers during purchasing and invoicing, or is it something else?
Providing these details will help others in the community understand what they are voting for and ensure we get your idea to the right product team for consideration.

Hubdoc - App Face ID
Could you make the app more user-friendly by reducing the need to log in every time or Ideally, Face ID should be an option for quick access.
Also, when we receive invoices from Xero, could they be sent as PDF attachments rather than just links? This would make it easier to forward them to Hubdocs via email. Thanks!

US Tax - Certificate of Insurance (COI) Management | Compliance
While Xero currently allows documents like Certificates of Insurance to be uploaded to a contact, it would be much more effective to have a structured compliance tracking feature similar to how W-9 information is managed. This would allow users to input and track key insurance details—such as policy type (e.g., General Liability, Workers’ Compensation), coverage limits, and expiration dates—directly within the vendor or contractor profile. With this data captured in a structured format, Xero could provide automated reminders for upcoming expirations and visual alerts for missing or non-compliant coverage, helping businesses better manage risk and ensure vendors remain compliant before…

Navigation - Hubdoc shortcut
Shortcut to Hubdoc - First thing I do when I open Xero in most clients is click straight into Hubdoc. With the BETA layout the shortcut has now been lost right down under 'do more with Xero'. I want to move the shortcut so it is the first thing I get to when I click on the client name. I'd also like the hide the Syft, I don't plan on using it yet and don't want it on my dashboard
10 votesThanks for sharing your feedback on the new navigation, Cath. We really appreciate hearing the changes that'd make the most impact for you.Our team are monitoring this forum closely to consider further improvements.
For now, we'll get a sense of others that'd find a shortcut to Hubdoc useful, too.

Contact Details - Notes Box
Can't highlight select specific text within the Contact Details - Notes Box to edit Contact information - when attempting to select part of the existing text to highlight so I can copy or delete this, however all the text below is highlighted and the screen rolls down or up when attempting to do this... it's so frustrating & annoying as the only work around for this is to copy the entire text & paste to Apple Mac text notes on another screen, so I can then edit the text and copy back into the Client Details - Notes Box in…

Reconciliation - Auto-match scanned receipts to bank transactions for easier reconciliation
Xero already scans invoices to create drafts, which is a huge time-saver.
Extending this capability to receipts would add even more value.
Specifically, if receipts sent to a Xero mailbox could be scanned and automatically matched to the right transaction, it would save significant manual effort, reduce errors, and streamline reconciliation. This small enhancement could have a big impact on efficiency for businesses handling large volumes of receipts.
8 votesThanks for the feedback here, team! Great to have thi forward thinking and I'm pleased to share that this is exactly what we're releasing with our new smart document capture feature in Xero Files.
Currently available to UK organisations we will be rolling this out globally to all other regions soon so I'll keep you updated here 😊

2 votesHi Tracey! We're in the process of releasing a new feature via our Xero Accounting app that will enable you to upload as separate or a single document that can be processed with Smart Document capture once uploaded to your org. 😊
We expect to have this live to all users soon so I'll round back to confirm when it's out to 100%.

Adding a Statement TAB to Contacts
Dear Xero Team,
It would be very helpful to have a separate "Statement" tab for each contact to upload statements received from suppliers or contractors for accounts payable.
I recommend adding this tab under the existing Contacts section, alongside the current tabs for Bills, Purchase Orders, Receive Money, and Spend Money.
Kind regards,
Marilie Lessing
2 votesCurrently, it's possible to upload files to a Contact record, Merillie. It sounds like this may be a suitable place to be able to upload your statements received?

Hubdoc - Warning if supplier bank account in Xero is different

Have an extra step to delete attachments
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.
7 votesThanks for sharing your idea, and letting us know why having a prompt before deleting files is helpful, Elena.
Make sure you share your idea with any colleagues that this could benefit so they can add their vote too!
We will be keeping an eye out on the traction this idea receives within the community, here. Thanks
