  1. We have been using the New Financial Accounts FRS102 IA template in Xero Business. Here are our feedback notes. In case anyone else is having the same issues.
    1. We had a resignation of a Company secretary and in the period. It does not show resignation date. Also the formatting of the directors name is interesting to say the least. Not a normal format. Last name first.
    2. When looking at the Xero HQ List of accounts it shows either in progress or Error until actually filed.
    3. You can not lock the accounts depending on Reviewer, or preparer status.…

  2. I run a F&B business. Tracking Food, Beverage and Accommodation GPs has always been a KPI in our industry. Whilst it is possible to bespoke the new P&L report to provide an overall GP of all the above revenue streams combined it would be better if it were possible to report GP for each revenue stream, for instance Food Purchases as a % of Food Sales, or as %GP, beverage sales against beverage purchases etc.

  3. Many of the leading software providers like Iris and CCH offer 2 and 5 year farmers' averaging at the click of a button which saves so much manual time having to work out the tax advantages of 2 and 5 year averaging. I feel this is very important and the agricultural market is huge, there are also a lot of dairy farmers whose milk contracts stipulate they must use Xero software, so the market is definitely there. My accountancy practice alone has over 200 farming clients and the time saved in my firm alone would be enormous, not to mention…

  4. 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.

  6. This is a known issue that needs to be voted on to be prioritized.

    The Auto Sales Tax feature in Xero (from Avalara) disallows the ability to use Find and Recode. This is a huge limitation that will have massive repercussions as time goes on. Please fix this promptly.

    Thanks for your idea here, Mariel.

    Appreciate hearing why you'd like to be able to change the account for invoices that have auto sales tax.

    We've reviewed your idea and now it can gain support from other community members.

    I've created a new idea to track support in being able to find & recode here so we can get interest in this specifically.

    If there is any plans made for either of these we'll update you through the respective idea. For now it can gain support from others in community 🙂

  7. You can't create a stand-alone worksheet for depreciable assets then feed the figures to a chosen label. Depreciation has to be created within the label e.g. rental worksheet/D5/D1. For assets created within a rental schedule you can print nice depreciation worksheets. For assets created at other labels, you sometimes can't print a nice worksheet and the information displayed at the label is limited. The assets worksheets attached to a rental property in a Trust return doesn't show the cost or acquisition date of each asset.

    Thanks for sharing your idea with us, Jennifer!

    We've reviewed your idea, and it's now open for the community to support.

    Other Xero users can now vote for your idea and add comments to share how it could enhance their own Xero experience.

  8. Entities often need to view business reports in calendar year, as opposed to Financial year.
    Increasingly, revenue, expense and profit performance and targets at management and operational level are considered by calendar year.

    Hi Ian thanks for sharing your idea here, and letting us know the changes that matter most for you.

    We've reviewed your idea and now it's up to the community to get behind and support it. Make sure you share your idea with any colleagues that this could benefit so they can add their vote too! In the meantime, we recommend typing the date in the box to avoid extra clicks. You may type 1/1/25 or Jan 2025. If you require further help with this, we recommend raising a case with our support team.

  9. Edit the layout of account transaction reports (custom reports) or customise it so that the expenses ("Spend money") get subtracted from the income ("Receive money"). This would make custom reports endlessly more useful as they would show what profit or loss there is for each custom report.

  10. The reports pick up transactions only up to the current date, regardless of the date range specified in the report.

    For example, I use the income statement (profit and loss) as a useful report for my fiscal year close out, where I'm trying to minimize the income from the business by purchasing products and services I need in the coming year or paying myself to convert to personal income. When running depreciation on fixed assets, the depreciation expense is posted for the end of the month, and as a result is not included on the income report.

    The date selection…

  11. When presenting the Profit & Loss in a different currency from the file currency the exchange rate is as the last date of the Profit & Loss Statement (P&L). While this is appropriate for the Balance Sheet it is not so for the P&L. I would like to be able to extract a P&L report knowing the figures are based on an average exchange rate for the period as opposed to a single date rate.

    Appreciate you sharing your idea here, Michelle.

    In the way Xero works at present the exchange rate is based on the end date of a report or the set exchange rate that was used.

    It's now up to the community to get behind and support your idea here. Make sure you share this with any colleagues that this could benefit so they can add their vote too!

  12. I would like to see taxes split into Payroll, VAT and CIS more clearly

  14. We need to be able to select "All Dates" on a report. ex. I want to see a report for a certain account from the start of my business to the current date. now I need to select beginning date and then todays date and the update.

    Thanks for sharing this great idea for improving efficiency in reports.

    For anyone looking to achieve this now, you can view transactions across all time by selecting a custom date range in your reports. By setting the start date to your organisation's first transaction date and the end date to today, you can get a full historical view of your data.

    We see the value in your suggestion to add a preset 'All Time' or 'All Dates' option, which would make this process a faster, one-click action.

    To align with our new statuses for Xero Product ideas, we've updated the status of this idea here. We encourage everyone who would find this feature useful to keep voting and sharing comments. Learning more about the specific reports you'd use this for and how it would help your business helps our product team understand the potential impact.

  15. Have the ability to include the Report Code on the General Ledger Summary or Trial Balance report. At present, can only report on what Report Code an account has by printing the Chart of Accounts.
    With the new workpapers working on the Report Code, would be good to be able to see which Report Code an item has when working with the General Ledger Summary or Trial Balance.

  16. I'm looking to get more information from this report. Essentially, I'd like to combine "Bank Reconciliation Summary" with "Bank Summary" or "Reconcile Period" where there is an opening balance, add deposits, less withdrawals to get the bank statement balance, then add outstanding deposits and less outstanding withdrawals to get the book balance (balance on trial balance). It should display the source (account) currency and local (reporting) currency (as the "Bank Reconciliation Summary" already does).

  17. The supporting document for the Corporation Tax return is limited to one document of less than 1MB, which is sometimes not large enough for R&D claim supporting documents, even after compression.

  18. For NZ tax calc we reconcile to the figure after Dividends and tax expense. I see that there has been an update done (I am assuming for Australia) which is not suitable for NZ. Can you have an option for the tax amount to be either pre or post?
