    Hi team, we appreciate the growing interest this idea's gaining and want you to know our product teams are very attuned to our customers desire for a bank feed for CAF bank.

    We're continuing to work closely with our third party integrators to make more bank feeds available via open banking. A feed for CAF is high on our agenda, however we're reliant on third party integrators to support this integration in order for us to deliver this for you all.

    I want to assure you we're pushing for it's integration, but we cannot commit or confirm a timeline for this work to be undertaken.

    As soon as there's progress to share we'll happily provide further updates for you all.

  2. Ability to reconcile transactions to a bank statement at the end of a period, and closing it to prevent transactions being deleted or unreconciled in that period.

    This feature is currently available to US and CA organizations(https://central.xero.com/s/article/Reconcile-a-period) - This idea is asking for this feature to be extended to all regions.

    Hiya team, we wanted to share another update with you all. As our product team conduct discovery for potentially extending the Reconcile period feature to more regions we'd love to get our community's active engagement in the process.

    If you'd be interested in collaborating with our team on the research they're doing for this please reply on this idea or respond directly to our update 💬and we'll be happy to share your details with them for further contact. Thank you!

  3. For accounts where transactions are posted and then additional transactions clear those transactions it would be great to have a reconciliation feature where these can be matched off (only when they net to zero). The the remaining unmatched transactions make up the account balance. This would save us hours each month.

    Hi everyone, thanks for all the support for a bank feed with Aldermore Bank. We are aware of the interest here, and are currently exploring the possibility of this feed.

    As some of you have noted, the best option for now is to manually import your bank statements into Xero. This will help you keep your accounts up-to-date. You can find instructions on how to do this in our Xero Central article here: Import a bank statement.

    Another way you can help is by letting Aldermore Bank know you’d like to see them integrate with Xero. We've found that banks are more likely to prioritise building a feed when they hear directly from their own customers. They can get in touch with our team to start the process here: Register your financial institution for bank feeds.

    We want to be transparent that while we're aware of the demand…

    Hi community, thanks for your feedback on a Unity Trust Bank feed. While a direct feed isn't available just yet, we understand that this'd save you a lot of time on manual data entry. As we work with Tink to support more open banking connections we'll move this idea through to In discovery. While this is a step in the right direction, it's not a guarantee that the feed will be developed, and we don't have a timeframe to share just yet. We'll be sure to post any updates right here.

  6. Hi Xero,

    For NZ, could we have a investment boost column for the deprecation schedule. This could be a 20% amount or no claim, or a yes/no?

    This would make it easier when reviewing assets to see what new assets have been claimed under the incentive.

    Regards
    Brendan

    Hi community, thanks for all your votes and comments on this idea – it’s great to see so much support for this idea.

    We know that having to manually upload statements takes valuable time away from running your business, especially when your bank doesn't offer CSV exports.

    I’m happy to share that we're exploring a bank feed for Cynergy Bank.

    While we can't give any commitment at this point, we'll be back once the team have had a chance to dig in deeper and share any progress.

  10. Thanks for adding this feature. I'm trying it and I noticed that if you copy and paste a value with a $ in it, it will not paste properly. Sometimes when you copy paste opening or closing balances from PDF it copies including the dollar sign.

    Please allow to paste the value with the $ in it.

    Also, there doesnt seem to be any way of deleting a draft period. Please consider adding a small garbage bin icon in the period list and inside the period.

    Thanks!

    Appreciate your feedback, Alvaro. I know you originally shared your comment on this idea however I've just turned your comment into a new idea, so we can separately gauge interest in being able to delete a draft period. We're staying close to the feedback we're receiving so we'll share if there's any plans made around this with you here.

  11. There are often periodic top up payments for accounts (e.g. Tolls) and a periodic statement provided after the fact.

    It would be useful to be able to set up a bank rule to apply these and reconcile the prepayments as the statements come in.

    Hey all, we really appreciate you joining in this conversation and adding your votes.

    We've reviewed this idea, and now it's up to the wider community to get behind it.

    You might like to share this idea with any colleagues that this could benefit, so they can also add their votes and comments to support it.

  12. Instead of referring to reconcile transactions, it would be better to refer to categorise or allocate transactions.

    Bank transactions are categorised - we tell Xero what each transaction is for - answers "What was this for?" However at present this is called Reconcile transactions

    Reconciling an Account - is matching the above transactions to the bank's records (statement) - checking that every transaction in Xero matches what actually happened in the bank account and the end balance matches.

    The terminology seems to confuse some and they think by categorising/allocating a transaction they have reconciled the account.

    Thanks for your feedback and for pointing out how the term "Reconcile" can be confusing—especially for those new to Xero or bookkeeping.

    We get that using clearer terms like "Categorise" or "Allocate" might feel more intuitive and help reduce confusion when working through bank reconciliation.

    Right now, this idea’s open for feedback and support, so feel free to keep voting and sharing how a change like this could help in your day-to-day.

  13. Being able to attach files to a reconcile period. This would be useful to easily reference supporting documents like the statement the period has been reconciled off.

  14. Our clients would like and update to the bank reconciliation screen, color coding spent items and receive items so that they can tell at a quick glance if it was money that has come in and money that has gone out of the bank account.
    Having everything as white makes it difficult to do their coding.

    Thanks for sharing your idea to colour code spent and received items on the bank reconciliation screen.

    We've reviewed your request and it's a great one. Now, it's up to the community to show their support.

    Be sure to share your idea with colleagues and others who would benefit from this feature so they can add their vote and comments. This will help our product team see just how important this improvement is to our users.

  15. I would like to be able to copy a Transfer transaction.

    When viewing a transaction on the "Transaction: Spend Money" screen, the "Options" menu includes a "Copy" function. However, when viewing a transaction on the "Transaction: Transfer" screen, the "Options" menu does not have the "Copy" function. Please add the "Copy" function in the "Options" menu on the "Transaction: Transfer" screen.

    Hi Gregory, thanks for raising an idea in the forums here. To try get a better understanding of your workflow, is there a reason you would generally want to create the Transfer transactions prior to reconciling in your bank account?

    Hi everyone, just a quick update to let you know that we are aware of this request, and we get that having a direct bank feed for Chase Bank UK would streamline your workflow and make reconciling much easier.

    Currently, the best way to get your transactions into Xero is by manually importing your bank statements.

    For now, we’ll keep an eye on the engagement and support for this bank feed here, and let you know when we have any updates on this. 

  17. This is a big concern when there are business owners who don't understand the consequences of this feature if it is wrong. It is not tested and not trusted as far as I am concerned. It needs to be able to be removed from the reconcile screen.
    It needs to be in the settings ONLY, not where it can be accidentally clicked or chosen with good intentions.

    Hi Fiona and Annie, thanks for raising this here. Appreciate the need to move the feature to an area where it is accessed with intention and not accidentally. We've moved this idea to gain more support from the community and allow other users like yourself to share their thoughts. We'll monitor this space for more traction.

  18. It would be ideal when in reconcile bank, under the Account Transactions tab, that the lines are sorted newest to oldest as the first option under each sort category.

    Now that we are years into using Xero, it is not necessary to see the old transactions as a first see option.

    I typically sort my account transactions by Status as I want to see unreconciled items on the top and directly beneath that is the reconciled but the first line is the very first transaction posted years before. If I am trying to find a double entry in account transactions…

  20. It would be great if Xero could automatically do the transfer between Xero bank accounts.
    This is our most time consuming and often error-prone coding in Xero when it should be a simple fix. Many clients still battle with this.
