Chart of accounts - Add support for subaccounts
Xero should have the ability (similar to QuickBooks) to have sub accounts in Chart of Accounts.
77 votesHi community, thanks for continuing to engage, and sharing your needs in adding more layers to your chart of accounts structure.
We know especially for some of our US customers that this can sometimes be a show stopper in using of Xero.
Right now, we do have a product team that have begun exploring the efforts that'd be required to implement a change of this nature - while we can't commit to any development at this point we'll share any progression with you all here. Thanks

Transactions: Built-in month end close process
Need a process to close month end. After this process has been executed the month is locked and changes are not posted to it unless we unlock it first. This feature is available in other accounting packages

Find & Recode - Ability to bulk update exchange rate of multiple transactions
Batch change exchange rate
Currently, once a receipt has been entered the only way to change the exchange rate is to go into each individual transaction and edit transaction->change the exchange rate. I have a situation where i have hundreds of transactions that have been allocated the XE.com rate, but i would like those transaction to have the user defined rate. Also in receipts entered using the iOS app will use the XE.com rate even if there is a user defined rate set in settings.
I would like a feature like "find and recode" so i can filter for all…19 votes -
Bank Feed | Manual Imports - Support for OFX v2
We have started working with a new bank and they use OFX v2. It seems Xero only supports v1.
Would be great if Xero can support this new version of OFX.4 votesThanks for raising, GD. May I ask which bank you're using that supplies OFX V2? May help when sharing back with our Banking team. 🙂

Bank Feeds - Automate imports for Philippine banks
There are a lot of businesses in The Philippines that would benefit from bank feeds. Even if you cover BPI, BDO and Union Bank I’m sure they would fund the development costs.
This combined with BIR accreditation would see XERO as the leading accounting product in a country of over 110 million people.
3 votesAre there specific banks you're connected to and would like to see a feed developed for? It'd be good to get this detail that we can share with our product teams.
Also to help community members understand exactly what they're supporting, as well as share these back internally with our teams it's best to keep one idea per thread - I've updated the idea here for Bank Feeds for Philippines and we can make this even clearer if you confirm which banks.
For reporting and BIR compliance I see another user has started an idea across here you can also support.🙂

Reconciliation: Remove archived accounts from drop-down menu
I have a number of accounts that are archived. However they still appear in the dropdown options when I reconcile an account. This makes for confusion when selecting accounts.

Cash coding - Overpayments
As an accounts practice, we are looking to reconcile bank in timely manner, and not particularly concerned about supplier payment allocations against particular invoices. Therefore we would like to see cash coding option for Advisor to allocate purchase invoice payments against supplier account as overpayment, as we would be reconciling supplier balances after bank is all allocated. We would then reconcile overpayments in each individual supplier account.

Chart of Accounts: Ability to merge accounts
I would like to be able to merge accounts (of the same type, ie expenses) to one account when there was two or more of the same account created.
Example: Say you've converted from another accounting system, and there were sub-accounts that are all the same account - that you want to merge into one account. To be able to merge the accounts - without doing a Find and recode.
Or, the client opened another expense account for something, and one already existed... to be able to merge the two would be a quicker solution instead of find and recode.
51 votesHi everyone, appreciate your feedback on merging chart of accounts. We understand how this could be useful for tidying up accounts, especially after system conversions or when duplicate accounts appear.
While there’s no merge function right now, there are a couple of options that might help:
- You can use Find & Recode (available to users with the Adviser role) to move transactions from one account to another before archiving the accounts. We know this won’t suit every situation, as it requires unlocking periods.
- In financial reports, if you have several related accounts, you can edit the layout to group them for easier review and analysis.
After reviewing this idea, the product team has noted this is Not in pipeline, meaning it’s not something we’re planning in the near term. The idea will stay open for votes, and we’ll continue keeping an eye on the level of interest here.

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.

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 Reconciliation: Bulk import recieved payments
Some of our customers are paying upwards of 100 invoices at one time. The ability to import a csv into Xero (that can be extracted from the remittance advice provided from the customer) would save a lot of processing time instead of manually using the Find & Match feature in the bank rec screen.

Bank Reconciliation - Show more information in the Reconcile tab, before clicking 'More details'
At the moment you only get a small amount of the bank reference line to see for transactions so I find myself constantly having to click on the details link to reconcile. Can we have the option to display the whole (or at least more) of the reference line?

Settings - Ability to lock bank Reconciliation Period
To be able to lock the bank once reconciled, so no more transactions can be entered or manually forced through the bank
36 votesHi team, sorry it's taken so long for us to return to the idea here.
I appreciate the feedback from my last update where I suggested lock dates as an option and hear why this isn't a viable option for some.
If you're based in the US or CA you may want to check out our newer feature 'Reconcile period' that enables you to reconcile and close period within each bank account.
It'd be good to hear if users from other regions in this idea believe reconcile period would resolve what you're after here and I can merge in to this idea where we're continuing to track interest for expanding this feature to other region. Thanks

Cash coding - Keyboard shortcut for "Payee"
Cash coding currently has a keyboard shortcut to copy the nominal above, which is great..... Please can we have a keyboard shortcut made for the "Payee" that works in the same way as I often alphabetically sort these so it would be a huge time saver.

Banking - Increase character limit on bank reference field
Bank feeds from Bendigo Bank, and I presume all other OSKO payments.is being fed into the reference field. It concatenates the description, payee and reference field.
The problem is the field is now too short with new OSKO payment descriptions, so the reference field is often dropped off making some transactions difficult to match. A simple solution is to make this field longer.8 votesHi everyone, thank you for your votes and comments on this idea, and our apologies for the delay in providing an update.
For context, the issue is with how data is supplied to us from the bank. For direct feeds, the information you see in Xero, including the format of the reference field, is provided directly by the financial institution. We are not able to control how this information is formatted and sent to Xero.
For those of you experiencing this with Bendigo Bank, we recommend contacting the bank directly to request that they make changes to the way this OSKO payment data is provided on their feed.
In the meantime, we will leave this idea open to continue tracking support on this.

Bank Reconciliation Find & Match - search for multiple invoices
Find & Match function under Bank Reconciliation only allows to search for individual invoices to then pick invoices one by one. Please introduce the option to enter multiple invoices in the search field using a delimiter to then pick multiple invoices to reconcile. This would improve the reconciliation process materially.

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.
