Report - Produce Dividend vouchers in Xero
Dear All,
i have the following suggestion. I think it would make sense to allow the production of a Dividend Voucher in Xero also by in-house accountants, rather than only by an accounting firm that is a Xero partner.
Many thanks and kind regards, Andrea
19 votesThanks so much for sharing your suggestion. ✨
At the moment there aren’t any confirmed plans to bring that specific Dividend Voucher experience into blue Xero. That said, feedback like yours is really valuable for our product teams, so I’ve passed this on as a feature request to help them understand the demand from in‑house company accountants who aren’t connected to a Xero partner.

Audit Trail Report
We desperately need an audit trail report available for advisors.
I think it would be sufficient to have the below added to the account transactions report style (but named as Audit Trail):
1 - the ability to include an 'edited date' column
2 - the ability to include a 'notes' column
3 - a tick box to show/hide audit trail history (so voids would show as separate creation and void lines netting off, not just removal of the original transaction)
4 - a unique un-editable transaction identifier for all transactions, not just bills/invoicesIt must be exportable to excel with…
593 votesHey everyone, thanks so much for sharing all your ideas and detailed suggestions for a comprehensive Audit Trail Report.
Through some of the comments in this discussion we wanted to highlight the Journal Report that may help with visibility of detail some are after. We've taken on board your thoughts on how this could be enhanced, like including an 'edited date' column and improving the export to Excel, however this is not in the roadmap right now.
Being open, providing a complete audit trail of every single event and change within an organisation is not in our plans.
That said, it’d help to gather interest in specific items you'd like to see added within the history and notes and I've shared links to a few ideas that have already been started on the platform. We welcome you to add your vote, or start a new idea for those that'd be…

Budget - Attach file
It would be great to have a background worksheet that you could attach to each budget cell to clarify how the numbers were obtained

Trial Balance - Run in Foreign Currency
Do you have the currency option on Trial Balance as you do the profit and Loss and Balance Sheet?
18 votesCurrently, you can include an Exchange rate note in the Trial Balance report, however it's not possible to run this report in another currency.
We don't have any plans for extending the reports that can be run in a foreign currency atm, but it'll be good to get an idea of the interest for this here and we can share if there is any change.

Reporting - Ability to create own report code structure
what about the possibility of practices creating their own report code structure? with infinite report codes capable of being added? to accommodate flexible reporting structures?
It is truly difficult to automate reporting where a practice does not control the chart structure. this is because clients often create new chart codes because their particular expense doesnt neatly fit the chart options available...so a new expense/revenue/etc account is added and then the report pack grows in size (with similar account types that really should be grouped for reporting) to the point where it is unusable...unless the practice manually maps into a "group"…
207 votesHi everyone, thanks for your feedback here. It’s great to see so much engagement on this idea, and we appreciate you taking the time to share your thoughts with us.
We understand you’re looking for the ability to create your own report code structures within Xero that'd allow for more detailed and flexible reporting, helping to automate processes and provide clearer insights for your clients.
As noted by others in the idea, you can currently leverage the existing report code mapping functionality. While it doesn't allow for entirely new report codes, you can map multiple chart of account codes to the same report codes to group them for reporting.
To do this in bulk, you can also export your chart of accounts, apply the mapping in a CSV, and then re-import it.
We see the value in providing more customisation in reporting. Right now we have some more codes…

Reports - Add Contacts report to show contact details and contact activity
Contacts report that shows contact details (name address etc) and Activity in last Financial Year.
This would assist in cleanups of multiple contacts / old contacts etc.23 votes -
Reporting - Options for Font colour & type
Ability to change Fonts in reports. Each firm is unique, and have ways to express themselves. We have always used a particular font for all our correspondance.
The XERO reports look the same for every firm. Adding the options for fonts, size, colour will allow firms to be slightly different.36 votes -
VAT Reconciliation - Ability to view tracking category
Adding tracking categories to VAT return/reports:
I would like to run a VAT return/report per quarter to be shown by tracking category rather than as a whole. There is not an option on the current VAT report to add the tracking categories, therefore I think this would add benefits to any client that uses tracking categories for departments.
49 votesThanks so much everyone for the votes, comments, and continued interest in this idea over such a long time. It’s clear this has been on people’s minds for a while, and we really appreciate everyone who has taken the time over the past three years to share context, use cases, and support. 😊
Given the ongoing interest and the value in the discussion so far, we’re moving this into Gaining Support so it can keep building momentum and visibility. Please keep the feedback coming — the more detail we have on customer impact, use cases, and urgency, the easier it is to show why this matters.
Thanks again for sticking with it and helping keep the conversation alive.

Reports - Show invoice number in GST F5 Return
When running the Transactions by box number tab of the GST F5 Return, the Invoice Number will not be shown if we have already entered a reference on the invoice.
If there is no reference entered, Xero will then show the Invoice Number under the 'Reference' column instead. Screenshot attached.
This makes it difficult to do checking as most users do use the reference when creating invoice but showing the reference usually does not have much significance to the accountant/bookkeeper who is doing the checks for GST submission.
We do hope that the Invoice Number column can also be shown…

Report Templates - Ability to add any report
I would like to be able to add any available report into a practice Report Pack. At the moment, the available reports are limited to those within the Financial Statement realm.
I would like to produce a report pack that had all the reports i need for my annual working papers:
- Employee wage summary
- Bank Rec
- Tax depreciation report
- GST rec reportsetc etc.
306 votesHi team, following on from my last update though our position remains that we don't have plans for making all reports available in report templates we wanted to share a recent change we have made.
We have unlocked the ability to add client-specific custom reports to Adviser packs, giving you additional flexibility and more comprehensive reporting, which we know has been a key request for some in the idea here.
As mentioned in our last post - we're very keen to continue to understand the interest in specific reports, so if not already please make sure to add your support or start an idea for a the report you'd like to see. Thanks

Reporting - Ability to set reports as favourites across all organisations
As an accountant I use a trial balance for every file I open.
Can the trial balance be set as a standard report/ automatically added to favourites in the accounting option or each user be able to chose a standard group of favourite reports for all clients - Pain having to go into each new file i access and add to my favourites.37 votes -

Payable Invoice Details report - Option to display bank details
Need option to display supplier bank details when running the supplier payments bank report. Key for bank approvers to easily verify bank details for supplier payments.
54 votesHi community, thanks for your conversations here. Your feedback highlights how useful it'd be to see supplier bank details directly in the Payable Invoice Details report.
We understand the value greater customisation and a broader range of selectable data would make this report more useful across different payment and approval workflows.
Though this is not in our immediate pipeline right now, we’re taking your feedback on board as we look at how reporting can better support these needs over the long term. We’ll share if there is any progress.

Account Transaction report - Add Quantities & Unit Price to Column Drop Down
It would be incredibly helpful if 'Quantities' & ' Unit Price' were included as column options in the Account Transactions report.
This way one can quickly review the quantity & price of each entry without having to drill down into each individual entry. It would also provide a total quantity and average unit price for the given period.
The example that I am referring to is on a farm business where we would like to review the tonnes of crop sold and the price.225 votesHi community, we appreciate your continued support on this idea. Your feedback has been valuable in understanding how additional data in the Account Transactions report would be useful for you.
I'm pleased to share that our reporting team is exploring new ways to customise reports (e.g. add missing fields, pivot tables). We'd like to invite customers who regularly shape reports and use tracking categories to join an early study:
- A 60-minute video interview where we share early concepts and ask for your feedback
If you'd be interested in participating and giving your time, please complete this short survey -
- Thanks so much to everyone who expressed interest in our reporting research. Recruitment is now full, so the survey is closed. We really appreciate your support!
Thanks again - your input will help shape the future of reporting in Xero. We look forward to sharing outcomes of this work with you here.😁

Xero Tax - Reporting name vs Account name
Currently Xero pulls data from the connected ledger into Xero tax – it’s great! But its pulls the account name, when we’re often only changing the reporting name so as not to mess with a clients system.
Would be beneficial if Xero tax pulled the reporting name rather than the account name through for linked accounts. Would make things more consistent between financials & tax return.11 votes -
Expenses Report - Ability to view unapproved expense claims
Xero Expenses - Currently there is no report to get information on expense claims needs approving. (by staff member, period etc) It would be useful to have a report which can be filtered rather then logging in to screen and view all. Thanks!

Reports - Add report to identify lapsed customers (include last invoice date column)
We need a report that will give us a list of lapsed customers. We as a small business need to be in touch with customers who haven't had any transactions with us for 6 months or a year. It would be great to have a feature or report where we can easily find these customers. On our old accounting system, all of our customers had a " last invoice date" column so we could easily pull a report for any of these customers who hadn't been invoiced for 6 months or more.

Reports - When running the GL detail report on a Cash Basis, show the description of invoices & bills
As payments are applied to invoices or bills, you can't see the description detail on a cash basis report (no problem with an accrual detailed general ledger though).
The old general ledger (export function) enabled you to see the description on both accrual & cash.
Seems illogical?!

Fixed Asset - Partial disposal of an asset
Would be good to have a function within fixed asset register that allows to part dispose of an asset and to revalue.
440 votesHey team, thanks for all your input on partial asset disposal.
We understand that manually managing parts of an asset can be time-consuming. While we don't have plans at this time to develop a built-in feature, your feedback's really helpful in showing us where things could improve.
For now, manual methods to calculate depreciation and record journal entries to keep things accurate would be the best option.
However, this is a feature that we'd like to revisit as we plan our future roadmaps, and will be happy to share if there is any traction around this. Please keep sharing this idea with any colleagues you feel could benefit from this too.
