Reporting - Show date/time stamp when report was run in header of spreadsheet
Currently, It prints TITLE, COMPANY, DATE/ PERIOD. Please can you add to DATE/ PERIOD 'as @ TIME OF PUBLISH'. This would solve issues where I am looking at two identical spreadsheets but am unable to tell which is up to date.
14 votesThanks for sharing this suggestion — we can see how adding “as at time of publish” to the DATE / PERIOD would make it much easier to tell which published spreadsheet is the most up to date when reports look otherwise identical.
We’re moving this idea to Gaining Support so we can keep tracking interest and feedback from our community. While we can’t make any promises about if or when this might be added, the support and examples shared here help our product team better understand the impact and usefulness of this change 💥

2 votesHi Amanda, just to confirm are you referring to the Xero Analytics dashboards? Or the Net profit or loss on the Homepage?
This'll help ensure I get your feedback to the right team. Thanks

Reporting - Header and footer customisation
Hi Xero Team,
We are in the process of registering Xero as our Computerized Books of Accounts with the BIR. In line with this, we would like to share some suggestions that may help Xero meet the BIR requirements.
For report generation, it would be helpful if the footer could include:
The type of book,
A timestamp and date,
The name of the person who generated the report, and
The software version number.
At present, the footer only shows the date and type of report. Adding the generator’s name, exact time, and version number would make the reports more aligned…
33 votesThanks for sharing your idea, and letting us know the changes you would like to see to the headers and footers of your reports. We've reviewed your idea and now it's up to the community to get behind and support it.
Please note Xero operates on a continuous delivery model, which means we're constantly updating and improving our software. Unlike traditional software Xero doesn't have version numbers or release dates so we are unable to provide this information.

Budgets - Increase Budget Import CSV Line Limit
Please increase the limit of lines allowed in the budget manager import from 500. This is to save time from splitting the budget uploads into smaller files.
26 votesHey team, we understand how frustrating it is to split larger budget files before importing them.
We've now introduced Budgets with Xero Analytics and import and export capability is something we're considering as this work moves forward.
We're still building on this new budgeting experience and we’ll share more when there's news around imports.

Recode Transaction - Ability to change tax treatment on transactions instead of remove and redo
It should be a straightforward matter of going into a transaction to change its status from GST included to GST excluded or no tax, instead of having to remove, redo, undo reconciling and then reconciling the whole thing again etcetera. Especially when there is a file attachment, this is a very awkward, convoluted operation. I daresay in MYOB it is very simple. Just check transaction report, find any faulty coded ones, correct, rerun report, done.

Fixed Assets - Dispose of multiple assets at once via bulk import
It would be great if I could fill out and import a CSV template to dispose of multiple assets at once.
1 voteThanks so much for sharing this idea and for explaining the need to be able to dispose of large numbers of fixed assets in bulk. 🙂
We’ve opened this up for others making it easier for those in the community with the same need to add their support. In the meantime, grouping similar items into a single asset and using partial disposal may help reduce the number of individual disposals required. Thanks again for taking the time to share your experience—we’ll update this idea if its status changes.

Fixed Asset - Automatically write off Small Business Pool balance
Would be great if when posting depreciation and the pool balance is under $20,000 that it write the balance off without having to do a manual adjustment to the pool to clear it to nil.
2 votesThanks for sharing this idea. We understand the request for Xero to automatically write off Small Business Pool balances that fall below the applicable asset write-off threshold when posting depreciation. This could reduce manual adjustments and save time during year-end processing.
For now, eligible balances can be adjusted manually in Fixed Assets, where appropriate.
I’ve updated the status to Gaining Support so we can continue tracking community interest. If this would improve your workflow, add your vote and share your feedback.

Fixed assets - Feature for auto recording trading of old for new asset
FA-0003
Original price : 9,565.22
Less: Accumulated Depreciation: 2,235.15
Book Value: 7,330.07
The business purchased new asset (actual value) 25,652.17
Less Trading in Value 6,956.52
Net Book Value 18,695.65
The trading in amount of $6956.52 was used againt the first asset, which had a book value afrer depreciation was 7,330.07.
Advise me how to dispose it off with trading value. This feature is not available in Xero1 voteHi there 👋, we appreciate you raising the idea with us here. There isn't a direct feature for managing these sort of Fixed Asset situations such as; where an old vehicle is traded for a new one. However, it's possible to process this within Xero using Fixed assets disposal, Bills and potentially Manual journals.
I see you've also been in contact with our Xero Support team for direct help on recording this - As they suggested we'd recommend connecting with your adviser if you're uncertain on how to best record this transaction in your organisation.
We'll begin to get a wider sense of interest of an all in one tool for these Fixed assets scenarios from your post here, however I want to be open that this isn't something we have planned in the short term. Thanks

CIS - Include verification codes on the CIS Suffered report
It would be a good idea to include verification codes in the Manual CIS Suffered report. It would allow a check before submitting the monthly report to HMRC.
2 votesThanks for sharing this suggestion. We understand the request for the CIS Suffered report to include the subcontractor verification code alongside the existing payment and deduction information.
This could make it easier to cross-reference subcontractor details when preparing and reviewing CIS returns.
I’ve moved this idea to Gaining Support so we can continue tracking community interest. If this would be useful, add your vote and let us know what you'd like to see included in the report.

Improve official ChatGPT read-only access to receipts, transactions and general ledger
I am Jim Critchlow, and I run Mellor Nook Limited, a small residential care home in the UK. I use Xero for three organisations and have successfully connected all three to ChatGPT through Xero’s official integration.
Please expand that existing connection so authorised users can:
- Access and examine receipts, supplier invoices and supporting documents attached to individual transactions.
- Search detailed transaction histories across all accounts, including payees, dates, descriptions, amounts and accounting categories.
- Retrieve complete general ledger information and analyse expenditure across different periods.
- Compare accounting entries with their supporting documents to help identify possible mistakes, duplicate payments, incorrect VAT…

account transactions report
Remove archived codes from the account transactions report or add a function to be able to remove these. The report has been updated and now includes all active and archived codes

Reporting - Include column headers on every page of multi-page report exports
As I inquired on how to modify a report to allow for printing the column headings on multiple pages, Xero Support told me that I should "export the report and add the headings on page breaks".
Come on, Xero. That response was like a QuickBooks response! Surely someone at Xero must realize that when a report spans multiple pages, the user frequently may need to refer back to page one to be sure they understand what the numbers they are viewing are related to. Multiple page reports SHOULD have the column headings repeat on every page the report prints on…
4 votesThanks for raising this idea, Alan. We can understand how including column headings across every page of a printed or exported report could make longer reports much easier to read and review.
We've updated the status of this idea to Gaining Support so we can continue tracking community interest. If this would improve your reporting workflow, add your vote and share which reports you use most often where repeated headings would be most valuable.

einvoicing
Purchase orders / eInvocing
I've been looking at enrolling for eInvoicing in advance of this becoming mandatory, but Xero does not currently support any reconciliation between purchase orders and the eInvoices being received directly.
This NEEDS to be addressed before this is mandatory in April 2029. I know that seems a long way off but in the way the Xero works with product innovation they need to be on with it now.
Mainland Europe already use eInvoicing and I'm sure that Xero will have customers already that need this function.
@Xero - is this planned or is it something not…

Company Accounts - Allow Administrator Access to company accounts and corporation tax filing (not just subscriber)
Many business owners/directors do not actually do their own accounting, preparation of accounts or corporation tax returns yet they are probably the subscriber to XERO.
I think the company accountant/bookkeeper should be allowed access to this area as the people that I do accounts and tax returns for would have no idea how to manage this area of Work and yet they’re the subscribers - the only people who have access to it. This is illogical.2 votesThanks for sharing this idea ⭐
We understand that limiting Company Accounts and Tax access to the subscriber can make it difficult for other trusted users, such as staff or accountants, to help prepare and manage filings. Allowing the subscriber to grant access to selected users would provide greater flexibility while keeping control with the organisation. It would also be helpful if other users could view, vote on and comment on the idea, so teams can share their feedback and show wider support.
We'll keep this feedback in mind as we continue improving the experience. We'll start to get a gauge of the support for this from your idea, here.

CIS - CIS Materials Income account
When setting up Xero for a registered Subcontractor it would be really useful if Xero automatically created a revenue code for CIS Materials Income, like it does for CIS Labour Income.
When setting up a registered Contractor, Xero automatically creates CIS Labour expense and CIS Materials Purchased. But for Subcontractors to invoice CIS Materials Income they have to create their own code. But this is not mentioned in the support articles.
If Xero cannot add this code to the Subcontractor CIS set up, then can they at least add guidance in their support articles please.13 votesThanks for your feedback on CIS account setup for subcontractors. We appreciate you highlighting how this could improve the setup experience.

Manual Journals - Ability to archive repeating journal
Archiving repeating journals
We have had a number of repeating journals over the years. We have gotten to the point where when we want to update these journals, we have to trawl through these. It would be nice to archive the ones we don't need any more so we can just see the ones we need.12 votesHi team, appreciate raising this idea with us. As noted by others right now it is possible to delete a repeating journal.
If you need to repeat the journal again in the future you could turn one of the previously posted journals into a Repeat journal to start this up again.
We don't have any plans for adding an archive option in the short term but will continue to watch the interest for this here.

Manual Journals - Allow reversed manual journals to be visible on Xero
At the moment, if you reverse a journal with the same date as the original journal, it actually deletes both the original journal and the reversed journal from your manual journal listing in Xero. (You are only likely to do this in error, and it would not be immediately obvious to you as to what you have done). Both journals immediately become invisible and both are thus then uneditable. This should not be the case, there should be an ability to correct your mistakes. The only way to discover your mistake is by the 'Journal report' where you can see…
12 votesHi Neil, thanks for sharing your idea here. We appreciate the need for having a clear view of the reversed journals. We'll move this idea to gain more support from the community so they can share their thoughts and vote on this as well. We will monitor this space for more traction in the meantime.

Donation Receipts - Ability to add signatures on charitable donation receipts
New Zealand Inland Revenue Department requires reciepts to be signed by an authorised person. . This does not appear to be possible possible with Xero at present by inserting an electronic or jpeg signature. With a significant number of receipts our charity issues this can only be done manually and a scanned copy sent.

Increase Report export capacity
Increase Report export capacity especially for Sales Tax Report. We are unable to export reports for a whole quarter due to high volume of data to submit our VAT returns. This creates a lot of extra work for us. We are also unable to issue at least monthly reports due to the volume of transactions!!! Would appreciate if this is looked into ASAP. Thanks
