  1. We have an issue with our Stripe integration with Xero. Stripe creates payment transactions in Xero and then when the payout comes in on the bank feed, it matches the payment transactions to the payout, which would be handy except that it's causing problems with reconciliation because if the payment transactions are created late in a calendar month (for example, 29th December) and the payout arrives in the bank account in the following month (for example, 3rd January) the bank statement closing balance doesn't match with the balance sheet closing balance.

    The only way to currently fix this is to…

  2. Bring back the six month graph in the Bank Account list screen. I regularly use this to hover over the graph and see my credit card balance over time. I can no longer do this. Why is Xero removing features?

  3. I never thought it would be possible but I am amazed at what AI has been able to achieve.

    When downloading the bank feed, checks written by the company come across with no payee and the date is the date the check cleared rather than the date the check was written. It would be incredible if AI could read the check, input the payee and the date the check was written. That would save the user having to go to the bank site and pull up the check and manually editing the feed.

  5. Bank feed status is not visible on the Dashboard unlike before. For example, it does not show if the bank feeds are undergoing refresh after clicking "Refresh bank feed". It also does not show if only a specific user could refresh the bank feeds.

    Did you know you can join our Xero Research panel to be involved in early testing and research? Find out more and sign up through our website 🙂

  6. 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

  7. The auto reconciliation feature in Beta is great but it would be appreciated if you could tailor what to reconciliation. Eg only auto process things that match not create new invoices (from memory). We need to upload tax invoices on all purchases, by auto creating it is skipping this important step. If people have already uploaded (via expenses) then its ok.

  9. When uploading a receipt, Xero should recognise the information on the receipt and automatically find the bank transaction or ones similar to match with, like what Quickbooks does. It would make life a lot easier.

  11. 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…

  12. Previous/next rule navigation buttons added to the Edit Rule page and a check box for loading the next rule on save.

    This would speed up bulk editing like when first setting up or when there's been major changes.

    Another useful feature would be to tie this to a bulk edit option. Select the rules, click bulk edit and then after saving the first rule, it progresses to the next selected rule and so on.

  13. We have a major customer who pays multiple invoices but splits their remittance across more than a single bank statement line. There does not seem to be ability to match a bulk deposit against more than one bank statement line.

  14. What would be really useful would be a report that analyses historic bank account into nominal codes (p&l and balance sheet accounts). Pick start/end dates, choose weekly or monthly reporting, show opening bank balance, what came in and what went out, close bank balance, a choice of including figures gross or separating the VAT out. This does mean that Xero has to following through sales and purchase ledger payments to find out the account codes of the sales invoices and bills that were paid. I've asked Jax to do this and it can't. Come on, how about making your AI…

  15. Would love to be able to send the Uncoded Statement Lines report via the Xero ask feature. It would be great if we could attach documents to the Xero Ask questions so it's much easier for the client to download the document, add their responses and re-upload to Xero Ask.

    This way it provides easier visibility to firm on which clients have yet to respond to an Uncoded Statement Lines or if a bookkeeper is on vacation it is easier to jump in where needed and we aren't relying on a 3rd part platform.

    Hi Heliodoro, could you share a little more detail about what you're after in your idea here? Appreciate wanting security with more A.I present however a little hard at this time to interpret what you seeing helping you with this.

  17. It would be useful to have the ability to record both a 'Spend Money' and a 'Receive Money' transaction when reconciling a single bank line item.

    For example, when reconciling a bank deposit (money received), a user should be able to simultaneously record a portion of that money as a 'Spend Money' transaction (e.g., for cash expenses paid out of the deposit) in addition to the main 'Receive Money' entry. This would prevent the need to leave the reconciliation screen, streamlining daily workflows for businesses that handle cash deposits combined with cash expenses.

    The attached screenshot illustrates a scenario where…

    Thanks for sharing your idea, and letting us know the changes that matter most for you.

    In the meantime, this can be solved by adding a negative line item when creating the receive money transaction or by using the adjustment option.

  18. Recap Transaction is an essential feature in any accounting software. With a single click, it shows all details of a transaction including which accounts are debited and which are credited. This eliminates the need to sift through lengthy journal reports to locate specific transactions.

    Hi Sandy, it'd be good to get a bit more understanding of the common situation and where you'd like to be able to view this option from. For example would you generally be looking at the transaction from the Bank account, or another page in Xero? Can you share any detail about situations that lead you to this? It may help others associate with your idea here and our product team understand the pain points or consider possible solutions.

  19. 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.

    Thanks for sharing your interest in supporting more Revolut account types, Jon.

    It's now time for the community to get behind and support your idea.

    We'll be keeping a close eye on the traction this builds here, and will post an update if there is any progress.

  20. Right now "Save" is essentially "Save and Close" -- and then "Save & Add Another" creates a new blank item.

    I would like "Save" to stay on the same screen, so I can then use "Copy" from the "Options" menu to enter the same/similar item.
