Reporting - Percentages with decimals when expenses shown without
Xero allows us to choose whether or not we show decimals in an Income Statement. We believe showing 2-decimal places on revenue and expenses to be unnecessary, but feel it is VERY important to show 2-decimals on the % of revenue. It is better to show .04% than .00% and .05% than 1%. We would like to see Xero separate the option of decimals between numbers verses percentages so our clients can have a clear grasp on their performance.

profit and loss report from this time last year
Profit and loss report from "from this time last year" as opposed to the current "from last year". I think it would be really handy to see how the business is going compared to the same time last year.
the app has display dates of:
-this month
-this quarter
-this financial year
-last month
-last quater
-Last financial year
-month to date
-quater to quater

Report tab in navigation ribbon on new XPH
I feel there needs to be a separate tab/heading just for 'reports' on the navigation ribbon in the new XPH (Xero Practice Hub) format. It seems a bit cumbersome to navigate through to what used to be easy to access favoured (starred) reports.

Bank reconciliation
There are a number of things bugging me regarding the essential task of reconciling bank accounts. The Bank Reconciliation Reports are easy enough to create, but after that it all goes wrong. Nobody seems to have thought about what happens to them after the 'Publish' button is pressed! Here's what I think - and please please please vote for this or nothing will change.
1) I would like to see bank reconciliation reports having their own dedicated space. They are currently hidden away in Reports>Published, mixed up with all the other published reports. Please create a new Bank Reconciliation Reports…

NZ Payroll - Select multiple employees on Leave transactions report
Leave transaction report - NZ. Could this be changed to select multiple employees & to change the format so that there is a column for employee as opposed to grouping by employee. This enables easier reconciling through Excel. The Australian Leave Transaction report is ideal - could NZ's be made the same or similar.

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.
3 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.

contact report
When pulling a Contacts report (expense by vendor, cash payments made to vendors, etc) out of Xero, please add the ability to "turn on" more fields from Contacts. For 1099 purposes, it's crucial to see "business entity" selections and "DBA names" (IRS-registered business name) when preparing the 1099 report. I know you can see this info within the 1099 report, but looking at one contact at a time is not efficient.

Reports & Invoices - Display ampersand (&) correctly
Many of my clients are partnerships and trade using the partners initials e.g. J & J Doe but on their reports it displays as %26 and on emails that they are sending with sales invoices, it displays as "& amp;" meaning that when I save reports or they send their invoices, this has to be changed. Having worked in a software house previously, I know that this is a programming issue and one that should have a relatively simple fix so can you please look at this.

Reports - Common date for next month
When reviewing reports (e.g., Profit & Loss, Balance Sheet), we often need to view monthly data from the start of the fiscal year up to the current month. Right now, we have to manually select the first and last day of each month every time, which is time-consuming and repetitive. This makes simple tasks like flicking through months to verify data more cumbersome than necessary.
- Add “Previous Month” / “Next Month” buttons These buttons would auto-update the report’s date range to the previous or next full month.
Example: From May 1 – May 31, clicking "Next" moves the report to…

Transaction Listing Details Report. Add Totals.
Can a total be added under the amount on this report.
If a total was available, I wouldn't need to export to excel simply to add a total before sharing the report.Ideally, the total would also apply to groups on the report, ie, total by employee and total for all employees.

BAS - Include unfiled amounts when producing custom date reports for BAS audit purposes.
I currently can't export the quarterly activitiy statement due to too many transactions so produce monthly reports via custom date reports, however there is no option here to include unfiled amounts and therefore the reports are not matching the quarterly statement amount.
1 voteAppreciate your idea about BAS reporting, Michelle! It’s great to hear how including unfiled amounts in custom date reports could help with your audit workflow.
We’ve moved your idea to Gaining support, so it’s now open for the community to vote on and discuss. The more you can tell us about how this would fit into your workflow, the easier it is for others to see why it matters and for the product team to understand the impact.
Thanks again for getting the conversation started.

Invoice – Unique payment reference field for Reconciliation
Dear Xero,
Please!.. Ideally, accurate references on all source documents should be able to link them to their Payment transactions in Xero. However, it can be extremely difficult and time-consuming - especially with Spend/Receive Money transactions.
It would be incredibly helpful for a column of 'Link ID's' to be displayed on all detailed reports.
Doesn't need to be fancy, just a Unique ID.
This link ID would need to be automatically generated by Xero, and, have the ability to change dynamically in the case a payment is removed (as one of many examples).
It would help to see the account…
1 voteHi Callum, appreciate you highlighting how a unique payment reference field could support reconciliation workflows. Your suggestion about displaying Link IDs on detailed reports to track account movements is a valuable feedback.
This idea has now moved to Gaining Support, which means it’s open for community support through votes and comments. We encourage other members who would find this helpful to add their votes and share their experiences.
In the meantime, a practical workaround is to use the “Reference” field consistently. When creating invoices, include a unique reference code for the payment (for example, PAY-1001), and when receiving payments, enter the same reference in the “Reference” field. This ensures that the data will appear in the Reference column in both the Receivable Invoice report and the Account Transactions report when run for the relevant bank account, making it easier to track and reconcile payments.
We’ll update this thread when the…

Reporting - Manual Journal Report
Report that extracts manual journal entries (only) with user details - for audit purpose.
1 voteThanks for sharing this idea. We've reviewed this and now other users can add their votes and comments to support it.
For now, there's a way you can get a report on the manual journals, but without listing the user details.
To do this:
1) Run the Account Transactions Report for the relevant date range.
2) Click the Accounts dropdown and click Select All.
3) Use the Filter option to select Source = Manual Journal.
4) Click Update to generate the report.
Although this report won't list the users, you can click into journals to view their details, the History & Notes will show who entered it.

Reports - Include Entity Registration Number on Annual Financial Statements
For the Annual Financial Statements, it may be useful to include the entity’s registration number directly beneath the entity’s name in brackets — for example:
The New Company (Pty) Ltd
(2025/######/07).This can be applied on both the cover page and in the header for consistency

Profit & Loss - Ability to show percentages with Tracking Categories
On the Profit and Loss report there is no ability to show percentages, if tracking categories are used as a filter. We want to see COGS as a percentage of trading income, and Net Profit as a percentage of trading income.
4 votesHi Karen, thanks for submitting this idea. Showing percentages in the Profit & Loss report when using Tracking Categories would make it easier to see how different projects, departments, or locations are performing at a glance.
This feature would give you clearer insights and save time by reducing the need to export data and crunch numbers in spreadsheets.
This idea is now in the Gaining Support stage. If this would help your reporting, please add your vote or share your thoughts, it really helps the product team understand the impact.
We’ll keep this thread updated with any news.

Account Transaction report - Preview attached files without having to drill into transaction
It would be great if we could add a "files" column to account transactions to view attached files without the need to drill into each separate transaction. This feature is already available in VAT returns.
6 votesJust to check, would this be from the Account transactions tab of a bank account or from the Account Transactions report?
