  1. I'm in a petrol service station business and would like to create a budget using litres sold/purchased as petrol prices fluctuate monthly.

  2. Attach Notes to the month column.
    I produce monthly P&L custom reports and add explanatory notes for large variations etc., when I add a new month column, the notes are stuck to the column number rather than the month, eg. I add January, but the variation notes I entered for December are now on the January column and I have to unattach them then reattach them to the correct column.

  3. When using Tracking Categories on the balance sheet, we should be able to assign specific bank accounts to specific columns (or tracking categories). it would just be a feature where the balance "as of date" just displays in the column, regardless of all the prior transactions.

    Additionally, when paying loans, if a tracking category is assigned for balance sheet tracking purposes using columns, the Bank Balance that is transferred to the note becomes a Liability on the balance sheet. This is crazy. You're essentially reducing the Note liability balance & then increasing it by the same amount as a negative…

    It does sound like you've set up the Balance sheet in a bit of a niche way to track what you're after here, Sal. Appreciate you wanting more flexibility on how you filter tracking and being able to add a secondary filter for bank account.

    I want to be open that this isn't something that we have plans for. We'll continue to track interest from your idea here, but would need to see quite a bit of community support to look at making a change for this in the report.

  4. It would be useful if Xero could show when a subcontractor is verified with HMRC, due to the two year verification rule.

    If the date of verification could be shown on a report that would be great, then it would be easy to identify if a re-verification is required.

  5. Can we get a regular balance sheet in the Advisor (management) packs?

    For some reason it provides a summarised version, with statutory lines only (eg Fixed Assets, Trade debtors etc) but not the TB account by account.

    "More" even has an "Account codes" option, which doesn't work 😕

    Come on Xero!

    Hi Yaakov, appreciate the feedback however still a bit of confusion of what you're actually after here as you initial screenshot showed the Management reports within Xero blue, whereas you're latest image shows the Report Templates in Xero HQ.

    Is it possible that you're trying to add a Custom report that you've created in a client organisation to a Report Template? If so, we have a similar idea that was raised for this, but I want to be upfront that we don't have any plans for developing this.

  6. If the VAT201 report endpoint is added to the Xero API, it could save businesses doing the reconciliation for their clients and their tax returns. The report could then be saved directly to an excel document based on specific dates and this could lead to hours of time being saved for the people doing the recon.

  7. Please collaborate with Clockify to integrate Clockify time entries with Xero Projects.

    New project in Clockify creates New project in Xero
    New task in Clockify creates New task on project in Xero Projects
    New time entry in Clockify creates New time entry in Xero Projects.

    OR please improve the features of Xero projects to be as good or better than Clockify.

    Hi Bijanca, while we appreciate your idea here connected apps build and design their integrations with Xero themselves so they're best to approach to request changes or expansion to their integrations with Xero.

    We have a Developer community they are welcome to connect with if they need more information to help with this too. Feel free to share the link.

  8. Where there is more than one bank account in an organization, it would be very useful to be able to filter out a particular Cat Code, separately , within each bank account. Currently one gets the entire Cat Code for the entire organization, showing all the bank accounts. Also, the column "Tax" remains blank when a bank account's reconciliations for the date selected are chosen. Please see my uploaded example of just one bank account's reconciliations, which contains every transaction, but no tax shown. The report shows "Gross" and "Net" to be equal, when in fact there are many with…

  9. It would be helpful if you could see if an attachment was uploaded - you could consider showing an Icon outside the RHS of each line., as something Every GST checker needs to do, is make sure they have the appropriate attached Invoice so they can claim the GST. In Xero, it is laborious to have to open each line and check if their is an attachment.

  10. It would be good to have a bank feed to account transactions matching report which could show which bank feed entries have been reconciled to which account transactions without having to click into each entry. Something like the attached would be good to enable someone to spot mismatched bank entries

  11. Could we please add the 'Due Date' option to the Aged Receivables Summary Report. I love the simplicity of this report versus the Detailed report but unlike the detailed report, there is no option to add the due date.

    Thanks for the feedback, Jodi. When you say you'd like to add the Due date I'm guessing this would be as a column to the report? One thing that would make this tricky is where you have multiple due dates for a customer with multiple invoices in the period the reports being run - what date would you expect to show here?

  12. GST Return Export

    It is annoying that the new GST return layout does not export the essential fact that it is a GST return and the period. The new GST return now just exports the business name and the end of period date.

    It needs to have the words "GST Return" or similar.

  14. Mathematically a negative x a negative = a positive. But when this is gross profit @ 312%, it does not represent the business financial position.

    Hi Charlotte, sorry we haven't responded to your idea sooner. Appreciate your screenshot and raising this with us. I'd recommend this is something our Xero Support team take a deeper look into with you. If you can raise a case with them through Xero Central they have tools to be able to escalate this with our product team if not working as it should.

  15. VAT In the VAT boxes you have to "adjust" the figure rather than entering the relevant amount. Why can't you just enter the figure and move on. It would be much easier. Also you can't delete what you've done in a box or re-start the entire return. In my view it makes Xero a sub-standard product.

  16. Would like to be able to find and recode transactions in bulk or have a report somehwere, where we can search the "include Adjustment to Tax" amount on any transactions. There is currently no way to find transactions that have this and to correct we have to find the batch payment, undo, edit the invoice, approve and re-batch. Not ideal.

  17. South African Law is in desperate need of a simple Xero based Trust Account Management system.

    Xero is so easy to use for the Business transactions, a similarly user friendly option for Trust Account Management would be a dream.

  18. I generate a custom report for Project Timesheets and I would like to be able to rename the columns as sometimes we use slightly different terminology or we use the tasks in a slightly different way to work around limitations.

    e.g "Resource" instead of "Staff", "Role" instead of "Task".

    For some projects we enter a week's worth of time entries at a time, so they are dated at the end of the week, so I would like to change the column to "Week ending" instead of "Date".

    Hi Emily, similar to your other idea if you can share detail of the Projects report you're running here it'll be useful when sharing with our team and may help others also interested in this associate to your idea here, too. Thanks

  19. if the address pulls up in a LCA that is not currently added, to have the ability to register that LCA to allow the correct tax rates? That would make it easier to know that the LCA is new and needs to be registered.
