    Hi everyone, thank you for sharing your feedback and voting on the idea for a UK Payroll report showing new starters and leaver dates.

    We wanted to let you know that we have recently released an enhanced Contact Details report for UK Payroll. This is currently being rolled out to UK payroll customers.

    As part of this enhancement, we have added 11 new columns to the report, including Start date and Termination date, so you can easily identify employees start and end dates.

    Thank you again for helping us understand the need for this improvement and for continuing to shape Xero.

  3. Provide a FULL list of ALL reports!

    There are SOOOO many reports out there that I am not aware of, as they are all hidden! Unless you know the exact name of the report they are useless to search. I have just spent a wasted few days between facebook and support trying to pull a report similar to Supplier Statement. I did a search and of course there is nothing called that. I eventually contacted support to find out how I could get a Supplier Statement and was told to use a "Supplier Bill Activity". I would never have guessed…

    Totally get the keywords our customers look for or search and the names of Xero's reports may not always match. We've making use of generative AI and have released this to search within the Xero help menu - Where possible Xero will auto generate a response based on your search, and otherwise you'll see the most relevant content from Xero Central.

    Taking the example in the idea here, when searching 'supplier statement' the first relevant result helps a user understand what reports will help them get an understanding of supplier activity in Xero.

    In terms of listing reports in the reports centre - Some of Xero's reports such as the Supplier Bill Activity are a drill down report. While it won't be listed on the reports centre as a default, you can click the 3 dot menu next to the Contact Transactions - Summary report to view sub reports. If…

  4. Xero should show at the top of the screen or show a notification if you have an activity statement to submit (otherwise you have to specifically go into "Activity Statement" under "Accounting" to check).

    Hi June, we've made a recent improvement for Activity Statements to surface the payment due date for any lodged statements. You'll find this from the list of Activity statements within the Completed section, and when you open a Statement you'll see the payment dude date shown at the top of the statement along with payment options to help simplify the process. 😊

  5. It would be great to be have the option of a "related account" or "split" in the Account Transactions Report, so that you can see the other half of the transaction (opposing debit or credit) without having to click on the transaction to view the full detail.

    I've attached a screenshot as an example 😊

    Hi team, as an update here we have now released a new Tracking Summary report.

    You're able to include the new report in Management reports, and can drill down through the amounts shown in your reports.

    If you use multi currency you'll see an icon in rows where transactions have been recorded in foreign currency and can click this to view the Exchange rate details.

  8. Can we please have the bank reconciliation reports default to show decimal places. I've never seen a bank rec that rounds off the decimals until Xero introduced it.

    Hey Barbara, thanks for sharing your idea!

    Earlier this year we rolled out a change to the Bank Reconciliation report, it now defaults to including decimal places. This can be changed by deselecting 'Decimals' from the 'More' menu. I've attached a screenshot as an example 😊 

  9. In the old P&L reports there was an option to compare jobs(tracking options) for a selected period. There was an option to filter the exact period (eg 1 month or 6 months) and it also displayed the line items relevant to the job for that month (eg individual COGS lines) It was used to compare Job COGS to a Project Management program used by the business.The new P&L has very limited features particularly relating to filtering. The only option we see now is hours of opening each job, line by line (as it shows all the jobs with no way…

    Hi Guramit 👋 The new New Zealand GST experience is now available to everyone. As noted previously, the Transactions tab now shows the number of transactions in each section displayed on screen. 😁 

    Thanks for sharing where you'd like to see change in Xero. 

  11. The TB in Xero does not show lines that have a nil balance, however, you may need to drill down on a line that has a nil balance but may have have transactions (such as a control account). Could an option be added to the trial balance that would allow it to be displayed either with or without the nil balances?

    Hi community, we've just released the ability to show nil(zero) balance accounts in reports.

    Along with the Trial Balance report, this selection is also available for the Balance Sheet, Profit & Loss (Income Statement), Statement of Cash Flows - Direct Method, Cash Summary, Movements in Equity, Blank report, and Report templates

    You'll find you can turn this on as a toggle option from the More menu of the report itself, or there is a selection in Report preferences.

    We appreciate you sharing your needs in this and joining in through Product Ideas.

  12. To have a report that can check the information of opening balance, total debit, total credit, and closing balance during the date range for the all the accounts in columns.

    Hi Barbara, it's now possible to export your VAT return to PDF! 🎉

    You'll find this as a drop down from the Export option in the top right of the VAT return. Thanks for your input on this here 🙂

  14. FX rates to be added back to new reports like they used to be in the old reports. Otherwise how do we know what exchange rate is used for conversion at any given time?

    Thanks

    Hi everyone, along with earlier reports I mentioned, our team have now expanded disclosures for foreign currency to the following reports;

    • Receivable Invoice Detail/Summary (And all common formats)
    • Payable Invoice Detail/Summary (and all common formats)
    • Contact Transactions Summary
    • Supplier Bill Activity
    • Customer Invoice Activity
    • Bank Reconciliation Summary
    • Executive Summary

    With this release we'll shift this across to delivered. If there's another report you'd really like to see this on, do start a new idea and we can begin to get a sense of the interest for that as well. Thanks!

  15. New General Ledger Summary Report - please bring back opening and closing column balances for this report.

  16. We need the ability to delete a custom report. Many times a custom report is necessary for a period of time then no longer needed. I see no way to delete it. That would be VERY helpful.

    Hey Matthew, thanks for sharing this idea - this is actually already possible in the General Ledger detail report! 

    From the 'Grouping/Summarising' drop down menu, you can select 'Group by Account Code and Name' to organise the transactions by Account Code.

    I've also included a screenshot of where to find this option 😊

  18. The 'old' balance sheet showed the fx rates as a note at the bottom - can we have the option to add this to the new balance sheet layout.

    Hi everyone, we've just released disclosures for foreign currency in Balance Sheet, Profit & Loss, Trial balance, Movements in equity, Budget Variance and the Blank reports.🙂
    When you run one of these reports in base currency you'll see indicators next to amounts that have been translated that show the exchange rate that was used.
    Where applicable and you run one of these reports in a foreign currency there will be an indicator next to the currency sub heading that links to a note which display the exchange rates at which the base currency has been translated to foreign currency as at the report date, and any comparative dates.
    We'll be extending this feature across more reports and I'll return to share as these come available. Thanks!

  19. Add the following to reports:
    Supplier Activity Statement to compare with the statement received from your suppliers.
    Alternatively - enable a Customer and Supplier DETAILED LEDGER as per usual accounting practice. This should be standard within Xero.

    Hi all, with no response from my last update we are going to shift this to delivered with the ability to run the Aged Payable or Receivable Detail reports where you can set the Ageing periods to be Day, Week or Month based on your choosing. If needed you can also filter these reports by Contact.

    For ageing periods on a customer's statement -  we have an idea for this that we've shared on and to be upfront we don't have any plans in the foreseeable future.

    Supplier statements have been discussed on a different idea. However, we want to be upfront this isn't planned.

  20. I would like to be able to run a report that simply has overdue invoices, name, phone number, email. Ideally sorted by sales. Similar to the list I get when I am doing Statements but with a phone number in it.
