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.

Contact Report - Reports with entity classification and DBA info
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.
1 voteHi Nikki! Thanks for sharing your idea, and letting us know the changes that matter most for you. We can see why this feature would be useful when you want to see what entity type the contact is.

Xero Accounting app - Sales report table by month and year
I would like to be able to see sales totals on a simple table on the Xero app. I simply wish to see monthly sales totals as well as year totals per selected year. This helps me to get a quick snapshot of how my sales are increasing or decreasing, and also to view sales trends by month.
8 votesThanks for submitting your idea on Xero Product Idea's, Domenico. As you may have seen there is the Total Cash In and Out graph on the dashboard of the app. The dark blue bars show the total amount of cash that’s come into your bank account per month, and the light blue bars show the cash that’s gone out.
Appreciate there's no way to show this only based on invoices, or for a year view atm.
We'll monitor and track support your idea receives from the community.

History and Notes report - Contact details
It would be really useful to see the contact name on the History and Notes report.
We use this report to track bank account changes but we also check newly added supplier bank account details. Seeing which contact each line relates to would help us group them and know if an 'Edited - Bank.....' relates to the same contact as a 'Created' so we don't need to go into each line9 votesHi everyone, thanks for sharing this idea. We understand that having more detail available in History and Notes reports could make it easier to review changes and track user activity.
The suggestion is to add contact details within the History and Notes report to help users identify which customer, supplier, or record a change relates to without needing to click out of the report.
We’ll continue tracking this idea here, where other users can share their feedback and examples to help shape future improvements.

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…

Reports - Aged Turnover for both Suppliers and Customers
The delivered response to my previous idea was no correct. The aged summary/detail reports only show what is outstanding.
The report I am requesting is to show the turnover, monthly across 12 months so that we can see what we have spent with a supplier each month for that year, but also what a customer has spent with us.10 votesHi team, returning to the idea here I'd also like to highlight the Income and Expense by contact report which can be run for a date range and with comparative columns. You'll also find you can drill into the figures of the report to view all transactions that make up the total for that contact.
Alternatively, there is the Receivable and Payable Invoice Summary reports that can be filtered for the transaction types you'd like to see and grouped by Contact.
Is there anything missing from these reports that you'd need to get the view you're after here?

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 - customise comparison dates
Customise comparison dates
When running a P&L or any other report with comparison data, it would be handy to be able to customise the date range of the comparison data. Some reports have an option of custom date range, but it's greyed out.
4 votesWe understand that customising comparison dates in the Profit & Loss report would give you more control over how you view and analyse business performance, especially when you're working with non-standard reporting periods.
Currently in Xero, if you run the P&L for a custom date range (e.g. 1 Jan 2025 to 27 Jan 2025), you can compare that period with the previous:
- Year – shows 1 Jan 2024 to 27 Jan 2024
- Quarter – shows 1 Oct 2024 to 27 Oct 2024
- Custom – automatically sets the comparison period to the same length (in this case, 27 days) immediately before your selected range, so it would show 5 Dec 2024 to 31 Dec 2024
This idea’s now in Gaining Support. If this would be helpful for your workflow, feel free to add a vote or comment to share how you’d use it. Your input helps the team better understand what…

Reporting - Aged Receivables with bank details to create a debit batch
A Custom Aged Receivables report that can be generated with additional fields selected (banking details as per attached Netcash Template) for import to Netcash to create a debit batch. Xero will then also have to make provision for to the banking details fields on the contact's account as required by Netcash.

Report Templates - Codes for notes disclosure
Report codes for notes disclosure - I use chart of accounts for notes disclosures, rather than relying on remembing to manually edit numbers within notes. It would be helpful if there could be a category we could choose under Equity which was for Notes Disclosure or Non-Reporting. The entries always contra, so it would be helpful to not have to edit the report layout for each additional new code.
1 voteThanks Justine, for your suggestion and for explaining how you’re using report templates and codes for notes disclosures.
We’ve reviewed this idea with the product team and it’s not something we’re planning to develop right now, so we’ve marked it as Not in pipeline. While this won’t move ahead, we’re continuing work in related areas like Trusted Notes and code‑driven reporting, and we’ll keep monitoring interest in this space for future planning.

Account Transaction Report: Filter by Customer Account Number
Please can you consider offering a accounts transaction report that allows you to see transaction by unique customer account number - otherwise what is the point of having a unique customer account number?

Reporting - Ability to filter by one tracking category and display columns by another on reports
I would LOVE to be able to produce tracking reports where I can select ALL items within CATERGORY A, but then display them in columns by CATEGORY B.
Eg. I use Department and Job.
I would like to see all Jobs for a particular Department in a P&L.
Is this something that may be possible in the future or would behelpful to others?

SB Pool Detail Report - Ability to move & delete columns
Currently the SB Pool Detail report contains a large number of columns and the report appears cramped and difficult to read due to the smaller font size.
It would be helpful to have the ability to change the column order and remove excess or un-needed columns, as is possible for the other tax and accounting depreciation schedules.

VAT - VAT report by box number for monthly/periodic analysis
We have clients where a sigificant proportion of their sales are Zero rated, which can significanly affect both net and VAT totals in certain boxes as well as the overall value in box 5 to be paid/repaid.
Could you create a report that allows the totals in boxes 1-9 to be listed, allowing comparison with prior months or periods or years.
This will be useful to see, say, the last 3 months or the corresponding prior year amounts so that percentages can be reviewed.

Reporting - Add NDIS Funding Period Tracking in Xero
With the rollout of the NDIA’s new PACE system, NDIS participant plans now include funding periods (e.g. monthly or quarterly). Providers and plan managers must track and claim within these timeframes, but Xero currently doesn’t support this.
Adding a Funding Period Tracking feature would let users:
Set funding period start/end dates per participant or support category
Track and report spend per period
Receive alerts for overspend or expiring funds
Validate invoices against active funding periods
This would help thousands of NDIS providers maintain compliance, reduce manual tracking, and strengthen Xero’s value in the disability sector.

Reporting - Allow Standard users to publish reports
Provide an option to allow standard users to publish bank reconciliation reports, but not all reports.
As a Xero Advisor, I don't always perform all of the accounting functions for my clients. For some clients we mutually prefer to have them perform the bank reconciliation process each month. This is a standard internal control that isn't always outsourced. Requiring publishing bank reconciliation reports at the Advisor level user seems overkill and limits how advisors can manage levels of service assumed by the advisor and their clients.

Reporting - Calculate % from invoices for payment report to Contractors
We pay contractors based on sales reports for each contractor. Getting this report is easy. In fact, Xero does that well. However, to get that same report and deduct a % value or any other value to work out what the contractor payment will be. Then being able to save & print & Email that report. Currently, we export to Excel, and whilst that works great, it is fiddly and time consuming. Probably not for everyone, but handy for some.
2 votesTHi Steven 👋, thanks for raising this idea. We appreciate its not straightforward calculating the percentage of invoices paid to contractors, which we know creates extra manual work. Although this is not on our current roadmap, we will monitor this idea for votes and other comments. However, for now, a workaround would continue to be to export the report and use a spreadsheet application to calculate the percentages. 📈

Reporting | Add multiple FY'S as common date selections
Report dates
On financial reports. Instead of last financial year of this financial year wouldn’t it be better to have the years as the selection ie 2024/25 2023/24 2022/23. it will be much quicker to select the year especially is going back further than the current year.3 votesThanks for sharing here, Kerri. Understand why you'd find this helpful and we'll start to get a sense from others that'd like to see this here, too.
I know it's a little different to what you're directly asking here, but perhaps comparison columns and saving as custom could help where you can run the report for multiple date ranges at once and view the comparison across each?
