  2. It would be help helpful to be able to edit reconciled transactions within the Xero phone application.

    I often want to fix something on the go and have to wait until I can get to a computer.

  3. Use the bank feed as a calculator. Insert tick boxes and select the relevant tick box for money received and/or spent to calculate totals

    For example, have a tick function (such as a tick within the Bills section) to add payments into / out of bank account.

    The benefit could be to help users reconcile individual payments in the bank account against other ledgers used within the users business whether online or offline

    See attached screenshot with example of tick boxes

  4. HSBC Business bank feed that updates more frequently than 24 hours in arrears. The fact that it takes more than a day for a customer payment to appear in Xero makes it hard to have effective account management.

    Hi Nikki — thanks for sharing this and explaining how more frequent updates would help your account management. I can see that you have raised this previously with Xero Support and as you know there is a delay of 24 hours for the UK HSBC bank feed to reduce duplicates 😣. We can assure you that we’ll keep monitoring this and will update the thread as further improvements become available. Thanks again for raising it and helping us track demand.

  5. It would be great if we could recode the dates on invoices - and I'm not meaning due dates. We have holiday programmes running in April and start advertising them in March. Our online booking system sends through the new invoices to be approved at the time of booking. This would be fine except our financial year runs 1 April - 31 March and we have to manually change the date each invoice was issued to an April date. This gets very frustrating and time consuming.

  6. Dear Xero Team,

    I am a regular user of the Xero Cloud Portal and appreciate the platform's intuitive features for managing business finances.

    However, I am currently facing a challenge when reconciling bank transactions. I frequently receive bulk deposits that are made up of a large number of small invoices—often exceeding 100. Unfortunately, Xero's current system limits me to matching only up to 100 invoices against a single deposit. This creates a significant bottleneck in my reconciliation process and affects my workflow efficiency.

    Feature Suggestion:
    It would be extremely helpful if Xero could increase the invoice matching limit to at…

  7. New Feature:
    The ability to choose what period to allocate specific Transactions / Credits in. Current period set by default. These should be payment type and credit type transactions.

    If the current period is the default this will save time by not having to open a prior locked period to allocate to a payment or invoice.
    The current process falsifies when the credit was taken up and allocated, by forcing you to open prior periods which the credit was generated. When the debtor takes up the credit in current months payment, by opening prior periods this alters the locked period,…

    Hi Katrina, thanks for sharing your thoughts on lock dates. Currently, tasks like allocating credit notes or prepayments can be blocked if transactions fall before the lock date. A non-advisor user can still apply a credit note if:

    • The credit note is dated before the lock date and the invoice or bill is after the lock date, or
    • The invoice or bill is dated before the lock date and the credit note is after the lock date.

    However, if both the credit note and the invoice or bill are dated before the lock date, a non-advisor can’t apply it. In this case, an adviser needs to either temporarily remove the lock or apply the credit note themselves.

    Xero also provides both a Standard and an Adviser lock date, which lets advisers restrict staff while still completing necessary allocations and adjustments.

    We’ve moved this idea to Gaining Support so we can…

  8. Support Morgan Stanley Client Serv.
    Just signed up for Xero today, and now I have to cancel because you don't support my bank. Worth mentioning that MS doesn't provide acceptable export options for their data, so there isn't a clean method for me to transform their data to get it into Xero. I will mention that QBO perfectly integrates with it, so clearly the pipeline has been built by someone.

    Hi Seth, thanks for sharing this suggestion. It’s clear that bank feeds for Morgan Stanley investment accounts would reduce manual imports and make it easier to keep investment data up to date in Xero.

    We'll continue to track the interest around this idea for our Product team's review.

    Returning to the idea here we appreciate while Xero currently supports feeds for Personal Fidelity bank account types it's not possible to set up a feed for investment account types.

    We'd like to track and understand the interest from our community in this. We'll share with everyone here if plans are made.

    Thanks for sharing how we could improve your experience with Xero by providing a feed for Desjardins Bank.

    We'll start to get a. sense of the wider interest for a feed with this bank here - Make sure you share your idea with any colleagues that this could benefit so they can add their vote too!

    If there is any news we'll update you here.

  11. Convert Overpayment to Credit Note, or treat Overpayment the same as Credit note.

    We have a lot of customers who double pay their invoices and several who would like to see what credit they have on their account as they will order again - so don't bother with a refund.

    Creating overpayments seems like the most logical thing to do, but the functionality of overpayments is lacking in every way. There is no way to send a pdf version of an overpayment to a customer except for printing a statement. I've upvoted the suggestion to add printing functionality, but that…

  12. Hi All,

    On cash coding screen, it would be great if there was an option to freeze the heading panels so you dont have to keep scrolling up if you have millions of lines to code. Eg: to uncheck all

    Thank you so much.

    Hi everyone, just a quick update to let you know we’ve reviewed this idea and marked it as Gaining Support.

    The suggestion to add floating headers in the cash coding screen makes a lot of sense, especially for those of you working through long lists of transactions.

    We’re keeping an eye on how much interest this gets, so if it’s something that would help you, feel free to add your vote or leave a comment. That kind of input really helps when we're looking at what to prioritise next.

  13. Improved Integration with Payment Platforms for Bank Feeds

    I would like to suggest deeper integration between Xero and payment providers such as:

    Stripe

    GoCardless

    Square

    Specifically, it would be valuable if Xero could automatically import bank feeds from clearing accounts linked to these payment platforms.

    Many businesses process large volumes of transactions through these providers, and reconciliation of clearing accounts can become time-consuming. Automated bank feeds for these accounts would streamline reconciliation, improve visibility over cash flow, and reduce manual data handling.

    Hi Matheus , thanks for sharing your idea, and letting us know the changes that matter most for you. Can appreciate the need to simplify the reconciliation process when processing a third party payment. We'll open this idea up to the community to get more support and traction. Cheers!

  14. Ability to include free hand information on the bank account rules for each account eg. Interest rates, number of deposits and withdrawals, bonus interest rates, costs for overdrawn account etc. To be updated by user at their convenience.

  15. Many customers pay in cash but still want an invoice sent. I need a way to mark invoices as paid in cash without it appearing to go through a bank account, as this makes reconciliation difficult. A simple “Paid in Cash” option posting to a cash or undeposited funds account would fix this.

  17. Hopefully someone at Xero reads this.

    The Philippines is a market that Xero should really focus on.

    The BIR is now introducing the EIS program which leans perfectly to Xero integration, not a middle man. Companies are running everywhere to Netsuite and SAP as Xero aren't across what is happening.

    Whilst currently limited to larger entities the roadmaps seem to indicate that the business size for compliance will get smaller over time.

    If XERO can organise the bank feeds from the top banks and integrate with BIR, your business in The Philippines will grow much much larger - https://eis-cert.bir.gov.ph/#/main

  18. As Xero started to update existing modules, the "new" modules, took on this idiotic philosophy/logic that users should need to click Enter before clicking Tab.

    Previously, I could type an account name (or part of one), use up/down arrows to highlight the account in the list, then click Tab to confirm the selection and move to the next field.

    This is (fortunately) still the case in the Create transaction screen.

    This functionality was removed from New Invoicing.. but fortunately, it was eventually returned.

    This functionality has been removed from Adjustments > Bank Fee function.

    It's annoying as ****. Just fix…

  19. Feature request: option to change default currency filter in Bank Reconciliation

    Hello Xero team,
    I’d like to submit a feature request regarding the Bank Reconciliation → Find & Match workflow for multi-currency transactions.

    When reconciling a bank transaction, Xero defaults to filtering matches to the same currency as the bank account. In cases where the transaction relates to an invoice or bill in a different currency, the user has to manually untick the “same currency only” filter each time.

    For users who regularly work with multi-currency transactions, this becomes a repetitive step and an easy thing to miss.

  20. Xero already supports a Revoult bank feed for the 'Main' account but when bank a feed established it does not include the 'Savings & Funds' bank feed.

    As Revoult offer the 'Savings & Funds' account as part of the standard business account offering, majority of customers would use the 'Savings & Funds' account too as it is interest generating.

    Please add a bank feed for the Revoult Savings & Funds to make it a seamless reconciliation process.
