Report Templates - Option to bulk mark codes as reviewed
Report codes that are in the For Review category need a button so after changing the ones that need changing the rest can be marked as reviewed. Currently it looks like you have to click into each one to review it and no-one is going to have time do that when you can see most of them dont need changing.
Its always an extra click to view all the report codes as Xero defaults you the the codes that are For Review. If they have all been reviewed we wouldnt have to do an extra click each time we want…
4 votesHi Gay, just wanted to return from my last update. While this is something our teams took a look into, it's not something that's been planned for the time being.
For now, we'll continue to get a sense of the interest from your idea here. 🙂

Tracking Summary Report - Add quantity Column
Hi there, would be awesome to be able to have a column in the Xero Tracking Summary Report which would sum up the quantities from what you entered in the quantity column in the Receive Money/Spend Money when you reconcile the transactions. This is especially important when organisations are measuring the quantities (eg. number of trips taken; number of food parcels handed out) are used with Xero. As it takes a lot of time to go into each transaction and see what the quantities are to get the group total, this feature would save people a lot of time.

9 votesWe're grateful for your engagement and letting us know the changes that matter to you.
We're continuing to track the interest for adding quantity as a column to the Tracking Summary report. This isn't something we have any plans for at present. If there are any updates we'll share with you here.

Blank Report - Ability to change layout of rows and columns (e.g Tracking Options and Dates in rows, and Account Codes in columns)
The Blank Report only allows Account Codes in rows. It would be good to have the option to Tracking Options for a particular Tracking Category, and Dates in the rows, and Account Codes in the columns. This would be particularly useful as the current Tracking Summary report is quite inflexible (you can't filter for a particular Account Code, nor edit report titles and labels).
1 voteHi Lee, we appreciate your engagement and letting us know how we could improve the Blank report for you.

Account transactions report - Option to Group by year
In the Account Transactions report, the Grouping / Summarising box should allow you to group/summarise by Financial Year.
For example so you can look at multiple years in a row, but you still get subheadings/ breaks for each financial year. This would be really helpful when looking at recurring expenses like finance / insurance payments.
Thanks

Reports - Edit spend money transactions from the Transaction Report
Would like a pop out screen to view and edit transactions from the transaction report without having to arrow back to the report after each view/edit. Currently it is extremely time consuming with appx 7 back clicks to return to the report after each individual view/edit.
1 voteThanks for your engagement and for sharing this idea about editing Spend Money transactions directly from the Transaction Report.
We've reviewed your suggestion, and it's now open to gain support from other community members. We can definitely see how having to click back and forth to the report after each edit is a time-consuming process.
Along with votes, others can now comment to share additional detail about how your idea for a more direct editing workflow could improve their experience with Xero. 🙂

Reports - GL Summary comparison periods to show net movement per period
Reinstate the 'Compare With' drop down.
The key benefit of the old General Ledger Summary report was it's ability to show the net movement for multiple periods.
Xero is now without a single report to perform this core function.
1 voteHi Phil, thank you for this important feedback on the General Ledger Summary report.
We understand your point about the previous version's functionality. Losing the ability to easily show the net movement for multiple periods in a single report is a significant change, and we recognise how valuable this core function was for analysis.
We're grateful for your engagement and for letting us know the changes that matter to you.
We've reviewed your idea to reinstate the "Compare With" feature to show net movement per period, and now it can gain support from other community members. Along with votes, others can now comment to share how they used this comparative reporting feature for their financial analysis.🙂

Reporting | Publishing - option to include cover & contents by default
Small request: Include the cover & contents page by default, please.
The following is info from a Support webpage... Publish a report from the Drafts tab. In the Accounting menu, select Reports. Select the Drafts tab. Click the menu icon kebab style menu icon to the right of the report you want to publish, then select Publish.
(Optional) You can apply different publishing style options depending on the type of report:

1 voteThanks again for your idea, John. Appreciate I reviewed this a few months ago, and while we still don't have any plans at this stage it'll be good to get a sense of interest from others here.

Reporting: Excel Export - Adjust default row height on exported reports
When exporting reports to Excel they are coming in with very narrow row heights. By Default Excel will create a row height 4 points larger than the font. Eg: default font is 11 points and row height is 15 points. If I increase the point size, the row height increases.
My exported reports have the general data at 9 points but the row height is at 11 points - and I'm constantly having to modify my spreadsheets.
It appears that Xero believes that a 2 point difference between font size and row height gives enough white space to make the…
1 voteHi Karen, we wanted to share a quick update regarding the idea to adjust the default row height on exported Excel reports.
This idea is now classified as Gaining Support, and we’re continuing to monitor it as part of our ongoing efforts to improve reporting features.
To the community, if this improvement would benefit your workflow, please feel free to vote and share your thoughts.

Reports - Re-order columns and rows using cut & paste
Instead of dragging rows and columns (which takes forever when you have long reports), can you implement a cut and paste instead?
1 voteHey Rachael, we’ve updated this idea's status to Gaining Support. This feature could simplify customising reports by offering an alternative to drag-and-drop, saving time when working with larger reports.
If you’d like to see this improvement, please vote or comment to add your voice. Community feedback is essential for ongoing enhancements at Xero.

Reporting - Sankey Diagrams
I would like to suggest adding the capability to generate Sankey diagrams within Xero. Sankey diagrams are highly effective in visualizing the flow of resources, such as money, energy, or data, through different stages or categories. They could be used to illustrate cash flow, revenue distribution, and expense breakdowns in a more intuitive and engaging way.
By adding Sankey diagrams, Xero could offer users a more dynamic and insightful view of their financial data, helping them better understand how money moves through their business, leading to improved decision-making and reporting.
6 votesHi team, while we don't have sankey visualisation diagrams available in Xero today, there are a range of visual anlaytics that you'll find can now be shown with Xero Analytics Cashflow manager and Dashboards.
Being open we don't have immediate plans for sankey diagrams but are continuing to keep an eye on the appetite here.

Reports - "Find a Report" search (from 'Home' tab) returns results from all tabs
Quality of Life suggestion:
At present, typing in a report name into the "Find a Report" search-box will only give you a return if you're in the correct tab (eg. searching from the 'Home' tab will not return any 'Custom' or 'Drafts' reports).
I suggest that reports from other tabs be included, at least when searching from the 'Home' tab, with an icon/heading to distinguish the tab-origin of the report.
(I appreciate 'Published' and 'Archived' returns could run into the hundreds, so perhaps a toggle/filter would suffice to omit/include those returns as desired)
1 voteHi Jonathan, thanks for this fantastic 'quality of life' suggestion. We really appreciate you taking the time to detail not just the idea, but also how it could work in practice.
We've reviewed your proposal to enhance the "Find a Report" search box so it returns results from all tabs – like 'Custom' and 'Drafts' – not just the one you're currently viewing. We can see how this would make finding the right report much faster.
Your idea is now open for other members of the community to support and add their thoughts to. Along with votes, others can now comment on how a global search for reports, perhaps with the filters you suggested, would improve their own day-to-day workflow.

Projects detailed time report - Add Logo & header/footer
I have setup a custom report to generate timesheets for different projects as we need to provide these to customers, along with the invoice.
Currently, I have to export and then copy and paste and tweak it, to fit into either a PDF or Excel so I can add our company logo and details.
It would be great if we could add a Header and/or Footer with text and enable the organisation's logo to be displayed when printing to PDF.
6 votesHi team, while this isn't something we have any direct plans around atm we appreciate the feedback here and will continue to track the support this idea receives. I will be sure to let you know if there are any updates to accommodate this styling of reports in Xero.

AU Tax - Schedule EFT reconciliation reports
Provide the ability to schedule requesting on a daily basis the EFT Reconciliation reports in XPM, currently being a manual request locked behind Business settings permissions.
Provide also the resulting reports in either a Custom Reports area or standard reports so admin staff without the Business Settings permissions can view the ATO EFT reconciliation reports, filtered by date and Tax Agent Number. Possibly add a permission to view these reports as a separate permission.12 votesThanks for supporting and sharing with us how scheduling of reports could enhance your workflow. While we don't have immediate plans for this feature, we have a pulse on the ideas for this in community here and will be sure to update if there's any change to automate these for you.

Reports - Change the position of group totals in custom layouts
At present we are able to edit the layout of reports by rearranging, creating formulas, and grouping accounts. It would be INCREDIBLE to be able to customize the following.
1) Group font (size and boldness only)- right now it defaults to a much larger BOLD font than the underlying accounts. It would be nice to choose these sizes and weights
2) Customize the Group Total's Location - at present it shows only as an additional labeled row with the corresponding total. It would be a neater presentation to just have the group total show right in line with its main…
2 votesHi Michael we're grateful for your engagement here, however we ask that each post is contained to a single idea for a feature.
We've identified that there are existing Xero Product Ideas relating to customising fonts and styles in reporting, and collapsing and expanding account groups. We've gone ahead and added your vote to these ideas, so that we can gather support and gauge interest for these ideas separately.
We've also adjusted the title of this idea to reflect your suggestion to change the position of group totals in custom layouts. This idea can now gather support through votes and comments from others in the community.

Report templates - Standard unsummarised Balance sheet option
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!
1 voteHi Yaakov, appreciate it's taken me a while to get back to you here and thank you for the additional detail and I have taken a look into your interactions with our Xero Support team.
Understand that you'd like an option to have a standard option when creating report templates to select a Balance Sheet that has all groups listing each account rather than showing totals as a default. While it's not in our immediate plans, like you've noted right now it is possible to Edit the layout of the report template to deselect the Total option for each grouping and Save the layout.
We'll keep your idea here open to get a sense of interest from others in this, and I will share if there is any update around this for you here.

Balance Sheet - Bank Account assignment with tracking categories
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…
2 votesIt 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.

Reports - Generate a report for transactions without receipts attached
Users should be able to generate a report of transactions without receipts attached. This allows small business administrators to identify which transactions don't yet have receipts attached.
51 votesHi community, thank you for engaging with us about your needs in a report to view where attachments have not been uploaded to a transaction.
We get how this is a need for some businesses to validify expenses and process payments.
Right now, this isn't in the teams roadmap, however we'd like to keep tracking the interest around this and will share if it is picked up in any future planning with you all here.

Profit & Loss - Ability to hide lines
On the P & L reports, there quite often extra lines at the bottom which aren't required this yr, but may be next year. which we don't need ie: Net loss/ profit before beneficiary dist , nor do we need before tax etc as a loss, just need the bottom line ( net Profit /Loss). Companies also have the same issue. Is there a way to "hide" these lines? if not , can we add this as a suggestion please. Don't want to delete, just hide or disable as necessary
7 votesHi everyone, thanks for sharing this suggestion. We understand you’re looking for a cleaner and more flexible way to format Profit & Loss reports, including the ability to hide specific accounts.
This could help improve report readability and make it easier to present tailored financial statements to stakeholders.
We’ll continue to collect feedback and interest from the community.

Reports - More detailed bank transaction report.
Add a more detailed bank transaction report.
It would be nice to generate a bank report that allows you to see the accounts booked in details. For example, if one transaction has multiple accounts, I can see what accounts where used and what amount. this would make it a lot easier to look over and control if you made some mistakes or did not included bank fees in the transaction.4 votesHi everyone, thanks for the idea. It has been awhile since this idea was raised, so we just want to update the status of it. We understand you’d like more detail visible in the bank transaction report, such as contact names, descriptions, and reference information.
Having this in one view could help make reviewing and checking transactions a lot quicker.
We’ll continue to keep track of the feedback and interest from the community.
