Payroll AU: Set Date range for Payment Summary Details report
Can we run Payment Summary Details report monthly. Currently available annually
1 voteThanks for sharing your idea! Currently, the Payment Summary Details report can only be set to a financial year. However, the Payroll Employee Summary report allows you to select any date range and provides similar information.

Reports - Highlight previously viewed transaction on list/report
Restore function where the previously viewed transaction is highlighted in a darker or different colour so you know where you are on a list of transactions. It used to be there but it has now gone :(
4 votesThanks for sharing your idea, Diana. We understand that having a way to keep track of reviewed transactions would help when working through large reports.
The suggestion is to add a visual indicator for previously viewed items, making it easier to remember where you left off and avoid reopening the same transactions.
For now, opening transactions in separate browser tabs can help keep your place while reviewing multiple items. We’ll continue tracking this idea here so the community can share feedback and use cases.

Journal Report - Reversal Filtering and Visibility Enhancements
I would like to request improvements to the Journal Report to make it more user-friendly for accountants and bookkeepers.
Currently, reversal journals and their original entries appear together, which makes the report difficult to read and slows down review during month-end and year-end close.
Please consider adding these enhancements:
1. Preferred enhancement: Reversal Filters
Please add filter options to control visibility of reversal-related journals:
• Show or hide original journals
• Show or hide reversal journals
• View only normal (non-reversal) journals
This would keep the full audit trail intact, but make the report much cleaner and easier to analyze.…6 votesHi Wilianti, thanks for taking the time to share this idea. Your notes on reversal filtering and visual indicators help clarify how these enhancements could support your workflow.
We’ve moved your post into Gaining Support, which opens it up for community votes and comments. It is now up to the community to show their interest, and this gives us a clearer picture of how many users might benefit from changes like these.
We’ll update this thread when the idea gains traction and is reviewed further by the product team.

AU Tax - Integrate live ATO client account balances to generate a consolidated 'Total ATO Debt' report
The ATO are pushing hard to collect debt, and as Accountants we want to keep a finger on the pulse of amounts owing to the ATO for our clients.
At this point in time, i am not aware of a report we can generate through the ATO portal which tells us ALL the debt which is owed by our clients, across all their accounts, Tax, GST, Super etc.
Yes there is an integrated debt report we can run, but it only shows the ICA debt. By accident if someone has an ICA debt and a tax debt both will appear…
2 votesHi Richard, thanks for sharing this idea. We understand how having a report that shows a client's total ATO debt in one place could make it easier for practices to monitor outstanding tax obligations and prepare for client conversations.
We'll keep on monitoring the interest on this idea. If this is something you'd like to see, please keep voting and let us know what information you'd like to be included in this report.

GST Reconciliation Report - Save the filed amounts entries
AU There was a discrepancy between GST ac balance at EOQ on the Balance Sheet & the GST refund for the end of quarter BAS. Using the GST Reconciliation report would be a lot more helpful if the Filed Amounts could actually be saved and continuously show the correct unfiled running balance amount and the section "GST Account Summary " for unfiled GST was actually correct as a cumulative balance. I just did 3.5 years worth of GST Reconciliations and nothing saved so all the running balances are wrong and don't flow correctly from one year to the next -…
30 votesThank you for your candid feedback and engagement on this idea. The good news is we're actively working on a complete rebuild of this report on our new reporting platform ✨. This project is a top priority and is specifically designed to solve the issues you've raised. The new report will automatically pull in filed return amounts, allow you to drill down into transactions, and always show a correct, cumulative unfiled balance. We're in the development phase, and we’re also actively gathering feedback on the ability to make manual adjustments in the new report, which we know is a critical requirement. We are committed to delivering a report that makes this essential part of your workflow easier and more reliable. We'll be back with another update as we make progress 😊

"Last week" common selection date range
When selecting a date range in reports, please can a "last week" / "this week" common date selection be added?
2 votesHi Arthur, is there a particular report you'd find this selection most useful for? It's unlikely we'd add this as a common date range across all reports at once - it'd be good to better understand the reports this would be most helpful for you on. Thanks

Statement of Cash Flows - Option to exclude Credit Card accounts from Cash and Cash Equivalents
Credit cards are setup to enjoy the benefit of bank feeds. But under reporting standards they are treated as trade payables. So that means at year end a work around needs to be added. Is there any chance you could setup the report so as to exclude credit cards? For those that need it the work around is
At the core is Xero’s faulty treatment of credit cards.
If we take the approach credit cards are trade payables (as per accounting standards) and not akin to an overdraft, then the work around for the cash flow statement becomes as follows.…
1 voteAppreciate you raising this idea. We understand the request for more control over how accounts are classified in the Statement of Cash Flows, such as the ability to prevent credit card accounts from being included in Cash and Cash Equivalents.

Reporting - Add a quick part access to compare previous months on Balance sheet report
I thought it would be a good idea in the standard balance sheet (compare previous months)
If there was a tick / option to have this in reverse order

Reports - Cash basis income and accrual basis expenses on Profit and Loss report
For clients needing income tax done on a cash basis, the expenses needs to still be on an incurred basis. A Profit & Loss report is need to reflect this situation.
1 voteThanks for putting this forward. A Profit and Loss report that combines cash-basis income with accrual-basis expenses could be useful where the reporting treatment differs between income and expenses.
I’ve moved this post to Gaining Support so we can continue gathering feedback. If you use this type of reporting, let us know why or when such report is required.

Payroll AU: Employee Remuneration report tally to exclude header in total count
Summary items tally at the bottom of the report page incorrectly includes the header - meaning the tally is always one to many. For example the Payroll employee summary report, or any report, for 3 staff in total will say 4 items at the bottom. A quirk that means your quick view of a report is always out by one. A quirk that can be removed as the tally is wrong and therefore no value.
1 voteThanks for sharing your idea, I can see how relying on the report's line tally could result in an additional employee included in the count.

year to date
It would be nice to be able to select "year to date" when choosing comparison periods of quarters or months on the balance sheet and profit and loss statements. Right now the only way to do so is to manually do the math on how many months back the fiscal year end began, which is especially inconvenient for entities with non-calendar year ends.

Reports - Ability to select multiple accounts when running the uncoded statement line report
Uncoded transaction report only allows you to pick all accounts or a single account in the filters.
I have a client who has 10 accounts but only half of them are current and non personal accounts. I either have to run the report 5 times or have the report being 13 pages long.
It would be good if we could select multiple accounts in the filters.
2 votesHi Victoria, thanks for sharing this idea. We understand that having the ability to select multiple bank accounts when running the Uncoded Statement Lines report could be useful for reviewing specific accounts without including all results.
The idea is to add a multi-select account filter for the Uncoded Statement Lines report, allowing users to choose specific accounts and create more focused reports for review.
We encourage the community to vote on this idea if you’d find this reporting improvement useful.

Reports - Show Expense Descriptions from Xero Me App in Account Transactions Report
When reviewing quarterly and annual figures from the Profit and Loss report’s account transactions, we currently have to click into each Xero Me app expense to see the description and confirm it’s coded correctly. Expenses entered via bank feeds or bills display descriptions properly in the Account Transactions report, but Xero Me submissions do not.
This inconsistency makes it difficult to quickly identify and verify transactions without drilling into each one. Competing platforms such as MYOB, QuickBooks, and HandiLedger display expense descriptions consistently, regardless of how the expense was entered.
An internal workaround suggests entering the description manually in the…

Cashflow Manager - Ability to edit outflow date for recurring transactions
In Cash Flow Manager (Reporting / Cash Flow Manager), once a Projected Recurring Cash In/Out amount has been entered, you cannot edit the date that it is received/paid in the cash flow.
You can edit the start- and end-date for recurrence, but the date it is received/paid is locked to the date set when you first added the Projected Recurring Cash In/Out amount.
Please allow the date that the amount is received/paid to be edited.

Reporting - Display Accounting Basis (Cash/Accrual) options prominently instead of under More options
Hi Xero Team,
I'd like to suggest a small user interface improvement that would significantly improve the reporting experience.
The Accounting Basis (Cash vs Accrual) fundamentally changes the meaning of reports such as the General Ledger, Trial Balance and GST reports, yet it's currently hidden under the "More" menu.
As a business that reports GST on a cash basis, I recently spent several hours reconciling my BAS, General Ledger and Trial Balance because I unknowingly compared reports prepared on different accounting bases. Once I discovered the hidden setting and changed the report to Cash, every figure reconciled immediately.
The Accounting…

Report - Combined contact statement showing both receivables and payables outstanding
Contact statement showing payables and receivables outstanding with detail of outstanding items. Currently have to run 2 separate reports where a customer is also a supplier.

Aged Payable report - add creditor bank account number as a drop down selection in the filters
Aged payable report - please add drop down in the filter - bank account number detail. This would be helpful to cross check bank accounts before getting to the 'create batch for payment' especially in schools where we have two people to authorise accounts.

General Ledger - Option to insert page breaks after each account when exporting
There are two concerns regarding XERO Blue Report extraction. One is to apply a page break after each ledger when extracting general ledger details while selecting all ledgers. The other is to extract the transaction list by edit period. This will be helpful in identifying differences between the same report taken for two different periods.
3 votesHi Arunadevi, thanks for sharing this idea. We understand that having cleaner report layouts can make it easier to review and export General Ledger reports.
The suggestion is to add page breaks after each account when exporting the General Ledger report, so each section is easier to review and present.
For now, you can export the report to a spreadsheet and adjust the formatting before sharing. We'll continue to track interest and engagement here.
A separate suggestion was also mentioned around exporting transactions based on edit period. To help each idea get the right visibility, please create a separate idea for that request so it can be tracked individually.
