Bank Reconciliation - Add batch toggle for 'Discuss' to 'Match' view
Bank items to reconcile list ability to toggle all items between 'discuss' and 'match' together as it is easy to miss if an item is showing as 'discuss' but client has uploaded a bill or invoice and it can now be matched
7 votesHi community, it’s been a while since our last update. Just wanted to share a quick status change and keep everyone in the loop.
We’ve updated the idea on bank reconciliation workflows to Gaining support, so it’s easier for the community and the product team to track interest. The idea will stay open for votes and comments, so adding any extra context about your workflow and inviting others to share their experiences can help build a clearer picture of the need.
We’ll let you know if anything changes as the idea progresses.

Bank Reconciliation - Upload files to the Discuss tab
Would be great to have the ability to attach docs to an unreconciled line under the discuss tab. Eg when you have the receipt, but waiting on answers to reconcile. Would save a lot of time not having to track the invoice/doc back down again. Would be ideal if it would auto attach it when you have all the info to complete the recon.

Lock Dates - Add a Dashboard link for Advisor users
Lock dates should be on main dashboard for Advisors. The setting is buried three layers deep when it needs to be preferable on the main dashboard taskbar. It is very annoying when there you have a client with Advisor privileges who also likes to make backdated changes. Either the lock date option should on main dashboard or allow journals to be outside of the lock.

Bank Account - Add "Difference" field to show the actual amount of the difference between statement balance and balance in Xero
On bank header screen where it shows "Statement Balance" and "Balance in Xero" could we have a simple "Difference" calculation to show the actual amount of the difference.
6 votesHi Valerie, while not shown in the Bank header, you can run the Bank Reconciliation report which will show you the balance out by figure. If the Imported statement balance hasn't imported or doesn't match your actual bank statement ending balance, you can enter this yourself at the top of the report and update so Xero will show a calculated balance out by amount.

Bank Reconciliation Summary - Filter by source
Filter Bank Feed By Source
When looking for bank errors because a bank balance is incorrect, it would make things quicker to filter by bank transaction source
Many errors are caused by the source being imported manually but the transaction has already been imported by bank feed
to filter these ones out would make things quicker3 votes -
Bank reconciliation report - Show bank account number
In addition to the bank account name showing on the bank reconciliation report, it would be good to also show the account number. This would make it easier to match the bank statement with the bank account in Xero.
For example, my client may have it as Business Account 1, Business Account 2 in Xero but the actual account name is ANZ Transaction Account, NAB Cheque account - so easily being able to match the account number when checking period end balances would make it much quicker and easier.4 votes -
Bank feeds: Yodlee feeds - Allow other users to refresh bank feeds
Allow other users other than the person that sets up a feed ability to refresh the feed.
Purpose: Save time and increase efficiency of being able to perform bank reconciliation
33 votesHi everyone, we understand that it's not ideal when the one person who set up a bank feed is away, causing delays to your reconciliation.
This is a tricky one, and the limitation you're experiencing is due to how certain bank feeds work, when supplied via our third party provider, Yodlee. These feeds are tied to an individual's online banking login credentials. When a bank requires multi-factor authentication (MFA) – like security questions or a one-time code – only the user who originally set up the feed can provide those details to refresh it. This is a security measure required by the bank, not by Xero, and you can read more about this here.
As noted by others here, one option is to have another user deactivate and then reactivate the feed with their own login details. A different approach could be for the bank account holder to arrange…

Dashboard - Show Bank Feed expiry date
Can the bank feed expiry date be shown on the dashboard or perhaps in the bank account screen rectangle for each account. It is a frustrating task to have to repeatedly contact clients to update this .... and worse they tend to blame Xero for the functionality rather than GDPR
4 votesThanks for showing your interest through product ideas. It'd be good to get more understanding of what seeing the expiry date of your bank feed on the dashboard would help you achieve? And, how you feel this will benefit your workflow.

Bank Reconciliation - Different colours for Create Spend and Receive money transactions
My suggestion is different colors for New Spend Money and New Receive Money Tab so they are easy to differentiate. Even if the New Receive Money Tab could be a darker tone of the same color, it would really helpful and would still look good.

Reconciliation - Create Bill instead of Spend Money
It would be very useful to be able to generate a Bill when Reconciling, instead of just being able to "Spend Money". This would allow much better tracking of transactions, since money leaving an account via Spent Money is far less visible than when a Bill is paid.
Specifically:
When PayPal is enabled as a Payment Method, and a customer pays their Invoice this way, the associated PayPal account shows two entries in the Bank Feed ready for Reconciliation:
1) A transaction fee is deducted from the PayPal account.
2) The full amount of the payment into the PayPal account.…
7 votesHi Faris, generally as a bill is received prior to payment so currently it's expected that the bill would already exist in Xero when reconciling.
Appreciate your example of where this could create efficiency and we'll get an idea of the support in this here. 🙂
In the meantime, depending on your type of sales you may find an integration in our App Store that could serve by automatically creating the transactions in Xero.

Bank Reconciliation - Import bank transfer
Import and reconciled bank transfer
6 votesHi Sandra, could you provide a bit more detail of the idea you have here? Would this be for the ability to automatically reconcile transfer transactions from one bank account to another?

Reporting - Show the statement lines reconciled to each account (income, expenses, assets & liabilities etc)
It would be really helpful if I could produce reports (by various time periods as usual) that list all the bank reconciliations that I have posted to my various accounts that I have created. This is useful for me to check in my book-keeping role to ensure that I have reconciled everything to the correct account, especially before passing everything to my accountant to produce the accounts.
Example:
Does my "Postage & Stationery" account include only postage and stationery bank statement reconciliations?
Does my "Salaries" account include only salary bank statement reconciliations?etc etc
5 votesHi Anna, have you tried the Account Transactions report with the 'Related account' column selected?
Sounds very much like what you're after here 🙂

Bank Reconciliation - Easily match ‘planned bill payments’ in bank rec
When you have a bulk bill payment as one line on the bank rec, it would be useful if within the ‘match’ tab you could easily bring up the bills with a specific planned to pay date. Rather than having to search for each bill/supplier from a separate list.

Bank rule - Transfer money and Bank fee as 2 lines
Almost all the payment providers are now settling the amounts with the fees deducted from the captured/sale amount. This needs to be reconciled as two lines 1) Transfer to cash control account and 2) Bank fees.
Currently there is no way to create a rule for this, hence it is a big overhead for the reconciliation, with almost a large chunk of card sale having to go through this process.Can the product team please take care of this on priority? thanks
3 votesThanks for the confirmation Prashant.
Although not a direct solution right now, you may be aware that Stripe (one of our providers) has automated capability you can set up like you've described for automated matching.
Alternatively, if your payment provider takes a set % of the total sale then with a rule you could proportionally split a transaction.
You'll see this option at step 3. of creating a bank rule.

Ability to send an automated 'Payment received with thanks' email to the customer

Though not in the pipeline at present, this is a feature our product team would like to explore more in the future.
We’ll be sure to update you all again when we are able to look into this deeper. Thanks
