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…

statements
Please improve Statements so that they show credit balances if the customer account is in credit. We have customers who pay proforma for some items, so sometimes their account is in credit. Xero only shows a £0 balance in these cases, which is incorrect. The balance needs to be the actual balance as the statements are useless in these cases. Thank you :)

Adjust VAT when recording Spend Money direct from the Files page
I like the new feature where you can record Spend Money transactions direct from the Files page, but the whole feature becomes useless if you can't adjust the VAT amount to match that on the voucher/receipt. Switching to 'VAT Exclusive' doesn't give you the ability to amend the VAT value, so if it's out by a penny you have to cancel the operation and record it in the old Spend Money way. Seems a bit silly really.
So, allow users to adjust the VAT amount when recording Spend Money transactions direct from the Files screen.
Thanks

XPH | Homepage - Widget for reviewing client transactions without attachments
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…
3 votesAppreciate 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.

Hubdoc - Keep email text with the receipts.
When emailing receipts to Hubdoc, anything written in the email title or body should stay with the receipt. Currently, Hubdoc turns one email into 2 uploads. One upload is the email. One upload is the receipt. It is nearly impossible to know which email matches which receipt. The result is that important documentation is lost. For example, my clients often email a receipt to Hubdoc for meals and they write who was present at the meal and the business purpose into the email's title or body. Those details are required by the IRS but the current Hubdoc system does not…

Contacts - Add photo to customer profile
Add a photo to a customer file.
The companies I work for have over 100 tenants.
It would be great to be able to add a photo of the tenant for recognition purposes.It will make phone and email queries easier.
The photo can then be displayed next to the customer's name

Client Phone/Mobile populated field - include in reports
Need to identify clients where the Phone/Mobile field has been populated. Currently reporting and exporting options do not separate the populated Client Phone field into Phone/Mobile etc. There is a compatibility issue with ATO SmartDocs not picking up the mobile phone number if it is in the Client's Phone/Mobile field. We need to move these to Phone/Phone field to fix the issue, but currently there is no way XPM can provide a list or report showing clients where their Phone/Mobile field has been populated.

Hubdoc - Detect Bank statement when publishing to Xero
Currently hubdoc suggests that a document is a Credit Note and to check before proceeding. Can this be the same when a document has Statement written on it. I find that statements are often processed as invoices causing duplicate payments within Xero
10 votesIt's great to hear you find the Credit Note detection useful, and can understand why you'd like to see this for bank statements as well.

Search by & select contact groups when sending Invoices/Statements etc.
Instead of manually adding/removing email addresses when sending invoices via Xero, being able to select a contact group to send them to.
For example, for one of my clients, when I send an invoice from Xero I need to CC 5 different internal people and would rather be able to select a group instead of entering them individually.
Being able to select a group would be less time consuming for us, and look less clunky for their customer.

Add Contact Name to History and Notes Report
Add Contact Name to History and Notes Report - we use this report for bank account changes audit purposes. It would be great to have a column with the contact name to assist with this audit process. Currently we need to click into each contact to find the name.

Hubdoc - Add ABN field for suppliers
I would like a field in Hubdoc to enter the supplier ABN number, that would then pull through to the ABN Field in the Contact in Xero please. This will be a huge help when bulk reviewing ABNs and GST Registration status. If the field could be clearly seen when processing documents it would be helpful so we can just double check against the document when processing.
5 votesHi there!
Thanks for this fantastic suggestion. We can definitely see how an ABN field in Hubdoc that syncs to Xero would be a huge help.
Having that ABN visible while processing documents would make it much easier for accountants and bookkeepers to confirm supplier details and apply the correct GST.
The next step is to gather more community support! If you know any colleagues who would also benefit from this, please encourage them to add their vote. We'd love for them to share their own experiences in the comments, as hearing how this feature would improve different workflows is incredibly valuable.

Contacts - Enter default descriptions for Sales/Purchases
Supplier/Purchase defaults should allow a default description.
I have to copy and paste the same item into multiple bills and line items. Xero automatically grabs the dates, contact, and reference, allows defaults on tax but for some reason ignores the description field.
Please add this small feature that would save hours of manual inputs.
1 voteAppreciate you sharing with us here, Rory. It'll be good to get a sense from your idea others in our community would also find setting a default description useful.
This isn't something we have any plans of at present but will keep a track on the interest this builds here.
In terms of existing functionality - if not already you may find creating untracked Inventory items helpful where you could add a default description for the item that you can select when creating invoices/bills for your contacts. You can set a separate description for Sales versus Purchases.

Contacts - Create alert when entering a bill if a new contact has been created
When entering a invoice create an alert if a new contact is being in created, in case it is an error. It is too easy to make a typo without noticing and Xero will just make a new contact as default even though it's not needed.

Contact - Add a 'Bad Debtor' status flag with invoicing alerts
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.
2 votesHi Denise, thanks for sharing this idea! We can see how a “Bad Debtor” flag could be a really useful tool for managing risk. When your business is busy, you don’t want to accidentally extend credit to a customer who’s already significantly overdue.
Right now, the absence of an automated alert means staff often have to double-check a customer’s payment history or risk raising an invoice for someone who should be on a stop-credit list.
As a short-term option, you can use the Contact Notes field. Adding a note to a contact makes it visible when viewing their details, though it doesn’t yet “pop up” during invoicing.
Regarding your idea on default rates, you can already assign a default discount rate to contact records. You can also use the Untrack Items feature to make data entry faster and reduce manual effort.

Contacts - Option to navigate pages of the Contacts list from the top of screen
It'd be useful to have the ability to paginate from the top of the Contacts list screen to avoid having to scroll down the page.

files
The new files is incredibly fiddly! Previously I had my uploaded files in years and if I hadn't filed them into years yet they remained in the inbox until I dealt with them. Now everything is archived I have no idea what isn't in a folder and what is just sitting in archived. And when I view a document just sitting in archived i have no way of knowing if it is in a folder or what folder it is in.
Am I doing something wrong??

subfolders in
Subfolders - It would be great if there was the ability to create subfolders in Files. For example to enable filing by financial year/month etc. As it is combing through an incredible amount of documents to find something is very time consuming.

Contact List - View contact group and last activity date
In Xero, under All contacts, would be great if we & please add had more columns or choices to add certain column of attributes of the contact showing if they are in a group, and possibly a last action date of last transaction, so that any can be easily Archived, when they haven't been accessed in a long while. Thanks!
