P&L Widget should have option to show P&L figures separated by month
Xero should have an option for showing a monthly P&L view of the past 6 or more months (up to the whole business year), as a widget on the dashboard. Displayed in the same style as the 'cash in and out' widget. I've asked support about how to set this up and I'm told it is not offered.
Monthly P&L is such a basic and necessary requirement for me as a business owner, and it gives me a quick and reassuring view of the company's finances whenever I sign in.
The last accounting software I used offered this, and I'm so surprised that Xero does not offer it too.
I'm sure it is very simple to set up as you already have all the data, your team just need to amend how it can be displayed. Having a 'year to date' view of P&L is far too blunt a tool to be useful.
Please fix this.
