  1. I would like to be able to have a foreign currency account in the COA other than bank accounts. If an invoice is received and paid in a foreign currency, it should show as the foreign currency as the source, not the base currency. This affects loan accounts a lot and if invoices are paid from a loan account, instead of a bank account, you can't keep the currency consistent.

    Thanks for support in this idea, everyone.

    We can see the benefit being able to associate a currency to an account could would have for customers in helping keep transactions consistent in their source currency.

    This isn’t currently on our roadmap, but it’s something our team will consider as they plan the future of multi-currency across Xero.

    We’ll keep an eye on the feedback here and make sure to share if there are any updates, with you all.

  2. Dear Xero product team,

    Please could we have an option to Password protect Lock Dates.

    Where certain user can only unlok Lock dates i.e. Accountants or Subscriber

    At the moment anyone can unlock the Lock dates which defeats the purpose of the Lock Dates.

    Thank you for your engagement and feedback on this idea. We’ve seen some great suggestions in this thread on how a password-protected lock date could work. The current lock date feature prevents new transactions from being entered and can only be removed by Advisor level users, but we recognise that some users would benefit from introducing password protection.

    As part of our new Xero Product Idea process, we have recently reviewed the idea and shifted this to “Accepted”. This reflects that this is an idea we’d like to develop, but that this isn’t currently on the roadmap. We'll be back with another update as soon as we have more to share.

    Hi team, we thoroughly appreciate your support and feedback on how seeing more of the statement line details would be useful, saving you time and clicks when reconciling.

    As we continue to develop the way you perform bank reconciliation in Xero our team have a close watch on the ideas we have in this space. I want to be upfront that at this time this isn't something we have planned but this is something our product teams will consider in future planning so I'll share if there are any updates here.

  4. Allow users the ability to import and export bank rules.

    This would save time having to manually create similar bank rules in Xero, and ease with new client organisation setup

    Hi community, thanks for your responses to our update and the continued interest this idea receives. We're keeping a watchful eye on the support this idea gathers.

    As mentioned in my last update our immediate focus for now is delivering more automation and intelligent tools to help you reconcile faster.

    However, we understand and appreciate the pain points shared through this idea and will move the status of this to Accepted as our product team look into more details around this and how we might plan this into the roadmap.

    I'll keep you updated of any developments in this space.

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

    Hi everyone, we totally get how automating the sending of receipts when a transaction is reconciled would free up time and the manual task involved in this activity.

    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

  6. Ability to duplicate bank rules.

    Purpose: To save time from having to set up the same bank rule for each bank account.

    Hi everyone, there’s been plenty of great discussion around this idea, and we get how being able to copy bank rules would take a lot of repetition out of setup work.

    It’s something we’d like to make happen, but with other priorities in this space right now hasn't been something we can add to the roadmap yet.

    It may come to life as part of the ongoing improvements in the Bank Reconciliation area, and we'll defintiely let you know here if there's any progress.

  7. Ability to add account description from statement description when setting up bank rules.

    Purpose: To easily reconcile similar transactions but have different descriptions.

    Understand wanting an update from us here, everyone. We’ve appreciate your feedback about applying bank rules and how the bank feed description is important to maintain when reconciling.

    While this isn’t in our direct pipeline at present this is a feature we'll consider as we evaluate improvements to bank rules in Xero. We’ll keep monitoring your comments here and update this thread with any development. Thank you for your valuable feedback!
