Reporting - Filter the Profit and Loss by Contact
When exporting the profit and loss transactions it would be amazing for one of the columns to show the Contact in isolation rather than merging the contact and description into one field. This would allow much easier spreadsheet analysis by contact.
61 votesHi everyone, thanks for being a part of the conversation on filtering Profit and Loss reports by contact. We understand how this could make digging into profitability a bit easier.
There is currently the Income & Expenses by Contact report that’ll show where you’ve incurred expenses or received income or funds for each contact. You could also Group or Filter this report by contact with the ability to drill down to the transactions related to each amount.
Alternatively, some people in the discussion have also kindly shared their method which may help others.
Our product team has reviewed this idea, and while this may be a development we consider in the longer term it isn’t roadmapped at this stage. We’ll continue to keep an ear on the ground here and share if there are any updates.

History and Notes report - Contact details
It would be really useful to see the contact name on the History and Notes report.
We use this report to track bank account changes but we also check newly added supplier bank account details. Seeing which contact each line relates to would help us group them and know if an 'Edited - Bank.....' relates to the same contact as a 'Created' so we don't need to go into each line7 votes -
NZ GST - Move 'File with IR' button to top of page
Moving the button to File with IR from the bottom to top of screen, to make it more obvious.
5 votesHi everyone, we've created this idea based on feedback received here.
With careful design and research around the placement of action buttons, there are no planned changes for moving the the 'File with IR' button.
However, we'd still like to get a sense of the interest from community in this, here.

NZ GST - Export customised return
Ability to export the GST return with the layout as customised on the screen. For example if columns have been hidden these are not shown in the exported file.
5 votesHi everyone, this idea has been created from feedback on this initial idea. We understand why you'd like your exported return to appear with the same columns hidden and would like to get a better view of the overall community interest in this from the idea here.
While we don't have immediate plans, we will keep an eye on this here and share if there are any updates.

Account transactions report - Comparatives
Essential for cash flow and projections, an annual report divided by month that includes source and base currencies.
The "Account Transactions" report currently enables us to overview all accounts (Balance Sheet and P&L) in both currencies (source and base) but lacks a feature to display 12 months alongside each other.
5 votesWe're grateful for your engagement and letting us know how adding comparative options in the Account Transactions report could benefit you.
This isn't something we have direct plans of right now, however we'll continue to gather community interest in this and share if there are any updates.
In terms of cashflow projections, if not already you may want to check out Short term cashflows with Xero Analytics.

Xero Tax (UK) - Aligning sole trade accounts expense categories to mirror tax return
It seems we can only class expenses within the profit & loss as staff costs or other charges. Ideally the breakdown should match the tax return.

Short term cash flow include repeat quarterly transaction
Would love that within money out/in and repeating the transaction that 'quarterly option' was included.
example: BAS, Super & PAYGIt would be great if this was an option for those using the short-term cash flow regularly.

UK Tax - Vat number on Vat Tab
Please show the VAT number on the VAT page. At the moment either need to go via the Financial settings or drill into a VAT return to see the VAT registration number. Would be good if quickly visible on the VAT page

Reporting - Option to remove the Date from the Footer of all reports
The print date that now appears at the bottom of reports is useful for some reports and circumstances, and I understand this date is now turned off for Published Reports.
However we do not 'publish' our financial statements - we send our financial statements to clients in a practical and informative pack instead. This is a more efficient, professional and streamlined approach for us.
Showing the print date on these financial statements is of concern, due to various issues including the lag time between preparing and approving the report. It is also not ideal when preparing the directors resolution and…
75 votesHi team, while this may be something we look to do in the future unfortunately we were not able to move along with the work the team had started exploring here.
We'll move to Accepted for now and if there are any updates I'll be back to share with you all. Thanks and continue to support this idea if it's something you'd like to see.

Reporting - Allow monthly figures to be time-adjusted based on reporting period in custom reports ratios
In my custom income statement, I'd like to create a calculation for a debt service coverage ratio. However, I don't there's a way to set a P&I payment as "per month" in the custom features. Is there a feature to set a formula that adjusts my debt service based on the number of months the income statement covers? (E.g. monthly P&I is $5,000 per month. So a 6-month year-to-date statement would adjust P&I to be $30,000 on my printed report).

Reports/Tracking - Add filter to P&L Comparison to hide zero balance tracking columns (projects)
When comparing the Profit & Loss by projects, it would be very helpful to have an option such as “Hide zero balance projects” after selecting all projects. Currently, when we select all projects (we have more than 100), the report also shows those with zero balances (no transactions). This makes the report slower to display and download, and we have to manually remove those projects afterwards. Would it be possible to add such a feature to improve efficiency and reporting usability?

Account Transactions Report - Show all categories when grouped by tracking
Reports eg Transaction reports, should be able to be summarised by tracking category. Currently if a bank transaction is spread across a number of tracking categories, the transaction report will report this as 'multiple categories'. This is very unhelpful.
2 votesAppreciate what you're asking here, Simon. However when grouped or summarised by tracking and a bank transaction has multiple lines that are coded to different categories its not possible to show these all on the report.
On the flip side of this, if you run the report on a Grouped by basis you'll be able to see the transactions related to the multiple categories and can drill into the transaction to view the detail.
Alternatively, adding a Related account column to the report you'll be able to see the account the transaction is coded to. Then, running the report for the related accounts e.g Sales would give you the line by line breakdown so you can view each tracking option the transaction has been allocated to.

NZ GST return - Late claims, Publish & incognito mode
Not a new product idea by any means, just a request to put the GST return back the way it was before the update. So far with the new update, we can no longer see the late claims on a separate tab, we cannot publish the final return in Xero and now we can not be in two different entities at once even if we are incognito mode or in a different web browser.
When querying Xero about this problem, it was suggested that I post it as a product idea, because they are all known issues but can't do…17 votes -
Manual Journal page - TAB after date should go to auto reverse date
Come on Xero, this should be the flow already, the tab position after entering the date should go to the reversing date, we accountants enter a lot of manual journals that are reversed and it is a pain in the **** to have to mouse click on the auto reverse date to be able to enter the date...
This is a easy fix, this is just the tab index in the page...
4 votesThanks for sharing this great idea, Leandro. We can see how changing the keyboard tab order on the Manual Journal screen would make entering reversing journals more efficient.
We've moved your idea to the 'Gaining Support' stage. This means it's now visible to the wider Xero community, who can vote and add comments to show their support. This collective feedback is a key way our product team gauges demand for new features.
While your idea is gaining support, we wanted to share a couple of other related ideas that you and other supporters might be interested in:
- There's an existing idea to have the reversing journal automatically update when the original journal is edited. You can find it here: Manual Journals - Editing journal with auto-reversal to update related journal/s
- For a potential workaround in the meantime, some users explore third-party browser extensions which can offer more customised keyboard navigation.…

Business snapshot - Link to default custom Profit & Loss Report
Business snapshot - link to default custom Profit & Loss Report
We use a custom Profit & Loss Report which is default.
Unfortunately the Business snapshot links to the standard xero Profit & Loss Report not the custom default Profit & Loss report.
Can the Business snapshot be changed to link to the custom default reports?5 votes -
Reporting - Add a 'Today' filter option to reports
We would like to automatically transfer daily sales data (excluding GST) from Xero into our custom system. However, the current sales reporting options in Xero do not allow us to select a “Today” filter.
At present, we have to manually set the date each day to get the daily sales amount, which makes automation difficult and time-consuming.
Idea / Request:
Please add a “Today” filter option (similar to existing options like “This Month” or “Last Month”) so that businesses can easily pull daily sales data without manual date entry.This would:
Enable easier automation with integrations and custom systems
Save…
1 voteThank you for your valuable contribution and for providing a clear, detailed explanation of your need for a "Today" filter in sales reporting. We appreciate you highlighting how this feature would significantly improve the automation of daily sales data transfers to your custom system.
We have completed our initial review of your idea, and it is now open for community feedback and voting. We understand that enabling more efficient, real-time data access is crucial for many businesses.
To help your suggestion gain traction, we encourage you to share it with colleagues and other professionals who would also benefit from this change. Their votes and comments will provide essential insight into how this improvement could enhance the Xero experience for everyone.

Reports - Option to specify which months to include when generating YTD monthly reports
Ability to run YTD reports where there is monthly columns totalling to the YTD column which automatically adds additional months as needed.
2 votesHi Bethany, thanks for sharing this suggestion for improving our reports.
We've reviewed your idea for an option to have Year-to-Date reports automatically generate columns for each month, which then total to the YTD figure. We can see how this dynamic layout would make monthly analysis much clearer and save time on report setup.
Your suggestion is now ready to gain support from other community members. Along with votes, others can now comment to share how a report that automatically adds monthly columns as the year progresses would improve their own financial analysis.

Profit & Loss - customise comparison dates
Customise comparison dates
When running a P&L or any other report with comparison data, it would be handy to be able to customise the date range of the comparison data. Some reports have an option of custom date range, but it's greyed out.
2 votesWe understand that customising comparison dates in the Profit & Loss report would give you more control over how you view and analyse business performance, especially when you're working with non-standard reporting periods.
Currently in Xero, if you run the P&L for a custom date range (e.g. 1 Jan 2025 to 27 Jan 2025), you can compare that period with the previous:
- Year – shows 1 Jan 2024 to 27 Jan 2024
- Quarter – shows 1 Oct 2024 to 27 Oct 2024
- Custom – automatically sets the comparison period to the same length (in this case, 27 days) immediately before your selected range, so it would show 5 Dec 2024 to 31 Dec 2024
This idea’s now in Gaining Support. If this would be helpful for your workflow, feel free to add a vote or comment to share how you’d use it. Your input helps the team better understand what…

Fixed Assets - Delete wrongly created General Pool in Xero Blue
Looking for deleting wrongly created General Pool, which were created during the conversion of file to Xero Blue. Currently we can record an end date to the pool, but it doesn't stop the previous pools to stop appearing on the 'Run Depreciation' screen. No balances recorded, no movement at all.
