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.

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.

Fixed Assets - History and notes for setting changes
History on Fixed asset settings (the global settings that control depreciation rules) - If any changes are done to the default effective life or rate setting(applied to new assets) Xero does not log those setting changes in the History and Notes. Add a History tab within Fixed Asset Settings timestamped log of “effective life default changed from 5 years to 7 years”. Also if any changes are done to the default settings an option to bulk change all assets changed to the previous effective rate without manually editing them.
4 votesThanks for your idea, Imelda. Appreciate how this note in the history could be useful for businesses.
This isn't something we have plans for right now, but make sure to share your idea with others that could benefit and we can get a better sense of demand here.
In terms of the second request you've made we have another idea around bulk edit of assets that you may like to join and can stay updated of any progress through.

Reporting | Edit report layout - Allow printing from Edit mode with all accordions expanded
Being able to print off the reports in the 'edit' mode so you can see the expanded breakdown of the accordian would be very helpful to ensure that Notes match Statements of Financial Performance and Position (especially useful for our juniors who often can't work out where their subcodes are if there have been reporting changes)
4 votesHi there, appreciate the need to allow printing from edit mode and for the screenshots as well. We’ll start to track support on your idea from the community, here.

1099 - Send email alerts for failed TIN matches
Email alerts for failed TIN Matches.
We have not received any alerts or confirmation emails on 1099 filing status. Having to login and check each client is cumbersome. Being able to see statuses on filing in one place would be great.4 votesThanks for sharing your idea, and letting us know the changes that matter most for you.

Report Templates - Ability to add multiple rows at once
When editing a report, please make it easier to add multiple rows or columns at once - either by allowing continuous clicking on the "add row/column" button, or by providing more options beyond a 5 x 5 when creating a table.

Reports - Add Tracking Category Column/Breakdown to Trial Balance
Trial balance with a column for Tracking Category. Currently I need to download each TB individually if I want it by tracking category, which is very time consuming and inefficient.

Reporting - Receivable and Payable Credit Note reports
Create a Receivable and/or Payable Credit Note Report which lists all credit notes issued/received, and the corresponding invoice they are linked to. This will help as when a credit note is issued the status is 'paid', however if I want to do a review of invoices and days until invoice is paid, I want to be able to exclude items that have been credit noted.
4 votesThanks for sharing your idea.
For now, the closest thing we have is to use the Receivable/Payable Invoice Detail (or Summary) reports.
You can use the Filter option on Source, to only show credit notes. However, the existing reports don't show the invoices/bills they're allocated to.

Manual Journal Entries - Add detailed history
Hi Team,
We would like to highlight that in India, it is a regulatory requirement to maintain an edit log (Audit Trail) based on the Triple ‘W’ Approach – When, Who, and What.
For example, if a journal entry is edited, the system should capture and display:
Previous values (amount, GL code, date, narration, etc.)
Since this is a regulatory requirement, could you please confirm if an enhancement can be made to comply with this, and share an estimated timeline?
Looking forward to your confirmation.

Manual Journals - add drag and drop to import feature
Add drag and drop import feature or allow multiple journals to be import at the same time. For example adding daily sales/payment journals this would a gamechanger in time it take to complete these tasks
4 votesHi everyone, as a quick confirmation through the idea - Right now you can use a CSV file to enter data and import multiple manual journals at once.
However, as per the request in this idea it is not currently possible to select or drag and drop multiple files to upload and create multiple manual journals at once.
If this is something you'd find valuable please add your support to this idea. We're interested to understand the community appetite in this feature.

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.
4 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

Delete discontinued tracking categories from reports
It would assist to have discontinued tracking categories no longer showing on drop down menus for reports. We have several categories that are no longer in use but still show up on reporting options.
4 votesThanks for your idea and sharing in the forums here, Rachel.
Consideration would need to be given to how this behaves before and after a report date or date range is set, incase running for an older period that would include transaction lines that were categorised to an archived tracking option.
Being upfront, this isn't something we have any plans around for the time being, but we'll source interest from the community in this here, and share if there are any updates.

Xero Accounting app - View VAT due
It would be extremely useful if we could view VAT on the dashboard of mobile phone app. Director only uses Xero on his phone so can never keep track of what VAT is due.

VAT - Support multiple VAT accounts for control and suspense
Can the VAT account be split into two, a method that Sage utilises?
A vat control account and a VAT suspense account.
The VAT suspense account will show the balance of the Dr or Cr of vat payable or owing from transactions included in the VAT return, this is where the Vat payments to/from HMRC are posted.
The VAT control account shows the balance of transactions where input/output VAT has been realised from invoices raised/received, but are not yet included in the VAT return typically because the the company is operating the VAT cash scheme.
These two accounts could be…
4 votesThanks for explaining what you’re trying to achieve. We’re moving this idea to Gaining Support so others with the same need can add their support and feedback.
To clarify, in Xero, cash and accrual are reporting options rather than separate sets of transactions or tax-account balances. Accrual reporting recognises income and expenses when they’re earned or incurred, while cash reporting recognises them when payment is received or made.
This means the same transactions can be viewed differently depending on the reporting basis selected. The tax account remains a single ledger account, and the tax basis can differ from the basis used for financial reports.
For the cash-basis visibility you’re looking for, the relevant reports can be run on a cash basis and filtered to the tax account where needed. The tax reconciliation report can also help reconcile the cash-basis amounts back to the single tax account.

Report Navigation - Return to previous page after drilling down
When using any report, when drilling down into more detail is great BUT there seems no way of then returning to the original report without re-running it after you have finished reading the drilled down info? Or have I missed something.
4 votesWould be good to get an example of a specific report you're drilling into, Lyn. You should be able to click the back button on your browser to return to the previous page / report you're on.
Alternatively, right click and opening the drill down figure in another tab may also be useful here 🙂

Fixed Assets | Registering draft assets - Navigate back to Draft list
This is minor but annoying. I am working my way through a list of draft assets and when you register each asset Xero reverts to the registered list rather than returning to the draft list. This gets very tedious when you have a lot of draft assets!
Conversely when you are disposing of assets it reverts to the disposed assets list when it would be more efficient to revert to the registered assets list so I can dispose of the next asset.
4 votesAppreciate the feedback on the little things that would improve your experience when working with Fixed Assets. I've shared this back with our product team. We don't have any immediate plans but we'll track the interest and share if there's any change planned.
