Bank reconciliation - Ability to enter dates directly in formats other than dd mmm yyyy
Across Xero it would be very useful (and intuitive) to be able to type dates in formats other than dd mmm yyyy (for example dd/mm/yyyy, ddmmyyyy, etc). The dd mmm yyyy isn't the usual way to enter and clients have commented that it's irritating that they can't type the date in (they use the calendar instead) because it didn't occur to them to try this format, and even when you are aware the habit when typing dates into these boxes is to use one of the more common formats so it can lead to errors
4 votesHi Jonathan! Thanks for sharing this great suggestion about allowing more flexible date formats in Xero. We can see how being able to type a date in different formats (like dd/mm/yyyy) would be a much quicker and more intuitive experience for many, and acknowledge that this functionality is available within other areas of Xero.
We've also added the supporters of this idea to these two similar ideas; New invoicing and Fixed Assets.🙂

Cash coding overpayments to suppliers and customers
Allow bulk cash coding as an overpayment to a supplier so they appear on the aged payables list instead of having to do them individually through find & match.

Bank Reconciliation - Add a new account code while reconciling
I wish you could add a new GL account to the COA right from the "create" tab of the match transactions page instead of having to click through to "add details" to access that function
4 votesHi, thanks for submitting this idea. As you mentioned, the Create option doesn't currently have a way to add a new account into your Chart of Accounts.
We appreciate you taking time to let us know how we could improve Xero for you, and your feedback will soon be reviewed by our Community team, and in the meantime this can begin to build support with votes from other community members.
If you're interested to see recent releases or get a pulse on what's coming soon see The Long and Short of it. 🙂

Bank Accounts | Account Transaction - show related account codes
It would make a quick check of allocations so much easier if the dashboard for bank accounts allowed you to customise the "account transaction screen" so you could toggle between options like you can under reports - account transactions. By enabling account codes to show in the "cash book side" would help us identify misallocations so much quicker and the data is there ...

Account Transactions - Edit transaction dates without remove & redo
I would like to be able to edit an entered transaction, i.e., transfer, payment, etc. When I am reconciling, some transactions are posted on the following month, but they were entered at the end of the prior month this creates a problem when reconciling. All I need to do is edit the date and change it, but I have to remove and redo the transaction. This is extremely time-consuming.
Also, could we change the bank account when we enter the transaction in the wrong registry instead of removing and redoing it?
4 votesHi Ana, out of interest is there a transaction type you generally find needing to use these actions? For example Spend money, Receive money or Payments applied to invoices and bills?
I've slightly amended the title of your idea for the date of the transactions, we have separate idea for changing the bank account you can join for any updates.

Find and Recode - Grand total for line total column
When using find and recode it would be helpful to show the grand total of the line total column at the bottom. This way you know if the isolated transactions in your Excel worksheet matches with all the conditional filtered transactions in find and recode.

Bank Reconciliation - Restrict Bank Transfers
When transferring money between bank accounts in Xero - it would be good to restrict the user to only making the transfer if there is actually a matching transaction in the other account. As it is currently, the user can make the transfer and then it sits in the unreconciled payments or receipts for a bookkeeper to tidy up later on.

Bank rules - Option to pause/disable Bank Rules
Would be great to have a "Disable" button for checked/selected Bank rules on the bank rule page, rather than only a "Delete" button. Sometimes staff want to turn them off but we don't want to delete them.
4 votesHi team, thank you for the idea here. We get there can be circumstances where you may want to switch off a bank rule temporarily and we'll continue to watch the interest this idea receives for now.
If there's any progress we will share an update with you here.

Cash Coding - Use an 'Unknown' contact if no Payee is entered
Currently, when using the cash coding screen, if you do not allocate a payee a new payee is created for each line item. If there is no Payee the contact should be Unknown otherwise there is too many contacts created for no reason.

Bank Rules - Set Payee when contact name shown within the description field
I want Xero to automatically set contact names when importing transactions from bank feeds, but this doesn't happen on of my several 'bank feeds' where the 'payee name' is blank and the actual payee data appears in the 'description' field instead.
This means that the option to set the contact name directly from the payee field (when using bank rules) doesn't work and I have to manually enter the contact name for every transaction when reconciling the account transactions. Extremely tedious and labour intensive!
When I edit section 2 of the bank rule the choices on the picklist are 1.…

Bank Rules - Bulk edit bank rules to include GST/VAT/TAX
When a client changes from GST registered to no longer GST registered - It would be greatly appreciated if all the rules changed to BAS Exc like it does in Chart of Accounts. Young clients shop everywhere and therefore there are hundreds of rules to edit.

Bank reconciliation - Ability to move selected transactions to the following month.
It would be amazing if Xero could add the feature when doing a monthly bank rec to be able to choose certain transactions that are putting the month end balance off and may need to be excluded and put to the next month because of posting differences from bank statements. It would be a life saver!!

Bank account - Drag & drop option to change order of bank accounts
It would save so much time if there was the ability to drag and drop the bank account order in the bank accounts screen (so it changes the order in the drop down menus). It is very cumbersome clicking the bank accounts up one step at a time especially when you have over 30 bank accounts!

Bank Reconciliation - Automatically populate the Why field on account transactions
My request is to allow us to have a CSV column with data in it that will automatically populate the "Why" field with the bank account description content. I have a client with hundreds of different payees and recipients and each has a different description. Very few are consistent each month, and those are covered by the bank rules, but that is only about 5% of her transactions. She wants the same description in the ledger as is on the bank statement. It is very tedious for me to copy and paste the bank description into the"why" field for each…

Cash Coding - Include columns for all statement line information
Can we please view more than the current bank statement lines in cash coding?
At the moment you can only view 4 bank statement lines in the cash coding tab. Date, Payee, Reference & Description.
We have found that sometimes we have clients using the Analysis Code, particulars or Code to reference details for the bank payment so when these come through to cash coding the view only items are all blank.4 votes -
Bank Reconciliation - Remember Search details in Statement and Account transaction pages
If you go to the bank transaction page and search for a word then click one of search results then go back on your browser, the previous page has forgotten your search. It should remember the search, quite a few other sections do this but not the bank statements page

Bank Reconciliation - Add notes and attachments when reconciling
To be able to add notes, to explain why Xero has imported an amount to the feed with a different date to the actual bank statement for example. I have to be able to explain to our accountant why the Xero bak balance is different to the bank statement. It shouldn't do this anyway but it does and I have no way of logging this date error. And add attachments (ie actual bank statements) to a published bank reconciliation, you can upload docs to any transaction but not the actual reconciliation??

Files - Automatic transaction creation for uploaded files
After uploading or emailing files to Xero, have it perform some sort of OCR and create a transaction, or spend money or something. It's almost like opening a beer and not drinking it. Please Xero at least 'take a sip'. Just left MYOB ofter 10 years, this is automatic in MYOB! I think the idea here is to make the computers do more work and we do less......right?
4 votesHi Scott, returning to your idea here I wanted to share a few different options depending on your needs that could help. As you may be aware we have Xero Expenses that has a capture element that will read your receipts that are uploaded to transcribe into the expense claim receipt, alternatively there is the ability to email to bills to capture and create a draft bill in your organisation, and we also have a new feature in bills that'll be rolled out to everyone soon where you can upload a file directly from your device to create a draft bill using the detail of your upload.

Bank Reconciliation - Add filter to show Deleted status
Issue - Bank Transactions Auto Deleted by Xero System
Hi Xero, i would like to suggest, please add 'Deleted' status in filter function. Because recently i just imported approximately 10,000 transactions into xero and it stated there 150 are duplicates and auto deleted by xero system, which is not duplicates actually. To find one-by-one, page-per-page really become troublesome for us in Statement Lines section and require lots of time. Also i have tried to open the one i just imported in Statements section, it keeps showing error code 500.
Therefore, the other workaround would probably to find deleted transactions using…
