Bank Reconciliation - Copy details from statement line into spend/receive money
Please set the bank reconciliation lines on the right-hand side to pre-populate with the details on the left=hand side, that is as long as there is no 'match'' and it is not a transfer. I'm mystified as to why I have to copy and paste all of the information from the left side to the right side when Xero could do this in a jiffy. Presently the pre-population remembers a long lost description I may have made such as 'birtthday gift' and Xero is remembering this forevermore. It would be simple and accurate to pre-populate especially since valuable information (such…
15 votesHi everyone, thanks for all the engagement and feedback so far. It has been awhile since this was raised, so we just wanted to refresh the status of this idea.
We understand you’re looking for a quicker way to pull details from bank statement lines directly into transaction descriptions, so you can reduce manual typing during reconciliation.
At the moment, statement line details can be copied into transactions using standard copy and paste, and for repeat transactions, Bank Rules can also help automatically bring through key fields like payee and reference into the description.
We’ll continue to track feedback and interest from the community for this idea.

Bank Feeds - BNZ feed to be 7 days, not just Tuesday-Saturday
Now that NZ has 7 days transactional banking by all banks, can BNZ who is only providing Xero with bank feeds Tuesday- Saturday, (per Xero support) now send Monday- Saturday, so Saturday/Sunday transactions can be reconciled Monday's and information be up to date.
15 votesHi everyone, thanks for your feedback on the frequency of the BNZ bank feed. We understand that getting timely transaction data is crucial for keeping your accounts up-to-date.
The way the direct feed from BNZ is currently set up means that transactions made over weekends and public holidays are sent through to us on the following business day. This is why you'll typically see these transactions appear in Xero on a Tuesday.
We will keep this idea open for the community to continue voting on. Your votes help us, and our banking partners like BNZ, to gauge demand and prioritise these potential improvements. We’ll be sure to post an update here if there’s any news to share.

Bank Reconciliation - Upload files within the "Match" option
Upload AR Remittance Advices within "Match" option within Bank Reconciliations
I have noticed that when processing the Bank Reconciliation and matching bank deposits to raised AR invoices, the Remittance Advice can't be uploaded directly to the receipt under the "Match" option (see attached screenshot).
However, under the "Create" option (next to Match then clicking "Add Details") there is the option to Upload files.
Not being able to do this directly within Bank Rec matching means it is an inefficient process where I have to go back to the Customer account, look for the Invoice(s) that were paid and open it…15 votes -
Banking | Account Transactions - Show # of unreconciled transactions
Bank : I work in practice an an issue I see day in and day out is unreconciled Account Transactions. Unlike the 'Reconcile' tab, there is no number in brackets to indicate how many unreconciled Account Transactions there are to prompt people to look at it.
Most of my clients didn't know about the Reconciliation Report, all they concentrate on is getting the number on the 'Reconcile' tab as low as possible.
I would really like to see the number of unreconciled Account Transactions to appear on this tab.

Reconciliation - Add Reference without clicking add details
It would be helpful to access the reference field in the bank reconciliation screen without needing to click "add details"
15 votesHi team, thanks for sharing how this idea could make your workflow a little simpler when reconciling. While we're continuing to work on efficiencies to reconciling in Xero, I want to be open that adding the reference field to the main screen is not in our short term plans. We're continuing to stay engaged with the interest from our community across ideas in this space and if there is any news we will share with you, here.

Cash Coding - Ability to attach file
It would be nice to have the option to attach files when using cash coding on the bank. To attach a file, I have to go back to the bank recon tab, find the entry and then attach the file. This wastes a lot of time. A small attach file icon or the option to attach a file on the drop-down will save a lot of time.

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.

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.

Bank accounts - Export list of unreconciled items from Account Transactions screen
Be able to export to Excel the Account Transactions screen from the bank that shows the unreconciled items
15 votesHi all, I wanted to share that while there's no export option on the Account Transactions screen itself, it is possible to export a list of unreconciled Account Transactions with the Business Bank Account Reconciliation Summary report. If you export a copy of this to Excel you'll find the sections for Plus Outstanding Payments and Less Outstanding Receipts which are the unreconciled account transactions. Hope that helps 😊

Bank Reconciliation - Allow Bank Transfer Rules to automatically reconcile both sides of a transfer
Similar to how "isReconciled" is supported by the API, allow it to be specified for the from/to account when creating a Bank Transfer rule. This would simplify the transfer process from external sources that are reconciled outside Xero.
14 votesHi Peter, thanks for sharing this idea. We understand that for businesses regularly transferring funds between accounts, having both sides of the transfer reconciled automatically would help reduce repetitive steps.
For now, setting up transfer rules on both bank accounts can help make matching the transactions quicker. We’ve moved this to Gaining Support so we can track interest and help our product teams understand the value of improving transfer reconciliation.

Bank feed - FNB South Africa
Bank feed interruptions - First National Bank is causing huge delays and back log of work piling up. I've not been able to connect or refresh clients bank feeds since mid Feb. This is really an ongoing issue.
14 votesHi everyone, we appreciate sharing on the interest for this feed with us here. We'd like to let you know we're working on a feed for First National Bank in South Africa at present. 🙂
I look forward to updating you here once it's live.

Bank Account - Add 'Reconciled By' column and filter to Reconciled Transactions
I'm just exploring the new "Reconciled Transactions" page and was just thinking how great it would be if, in addition to the "Method" column, there was something like a "Reconciler" column which would show which user reconciled the transaction. This would also be great as a you only want to review the transactions reconciled by a particular user, e.g., the client as an accountant or the owner of the file might like to review a bookkeeper's reconciling. Or even just to see who is the predominant reconciler would make this feature extremely helpful.
14 votesThanks for letting us know what changes matter most to you! Your idea is now in the hands of the community.
Now is a great time to share the post with your team and colleagues to gather more votes. We’ve also opened up the comments so others can chime in on how your suggestion would make their experience with Xero even better.

Bank Reconciliation - Reconcile expense claim against multiple statement lines
When an expense claim is created via Xerome a 'spend money' transaction is created instead of a bill which means that if there is more than 1 payment against this claim I cannot opt to split the transaction when reconciling the payments. There needs to either be an option to split or the expense should create a bill rather than a 'spend money' to enable easier reconcilliation

Bank Reconciliation - Option to switch Spend Money to Receive Money
Bank accounts that do not have bank feeds - Spend money should have a reverse function in case a spend money is used when it is supposed to be a receive money.
14 votesThanks for sharing this idea with us 🙂 I can absolutely see why being able to switch a transaction from Spend Money to Receive Money in the Account Transactions tab, without having to delete and recreate it, would be helpful.
At the moment, this isn’t something Xero supports, but I’ve passed your feedback on as a product idea so it can gain visibility with the team. We really appreciate you taking the time to let us know, as suggestions like this help highlight where we can improve the experience.
While I can’t promise if or when this might be introduced, your feedback has been noted and shared with the relevant team.

Bank Feeds - Bank feed form status for all users
When a bank feed form is uploaded, you can see the status of this - currently if one person has uploaded bank feed form, no one else can tell. Would be great if it just showed "bank feed form uploaded and being processed" or something
14 votesHi everyone, thank you for this great suggestion about making the status of bank feed applications visible to all users within a Xero organisation.
We understand that when one team member submits a bank feed form, the lack of visibility can lead to confusion or duplicate work for others.
We encourage you and other members to vote, and add comments below sharing how having a shared status like "bank feed form uploaded and being processed" would improve your team's workflow.
While we don't currently have plans to build this functionality, we'll be keeping a close eye on the support for this idea here and will keep you informed of any updates.

Batch Deposit - Reference to pull through to bank reconciliation
When I enter a reference in batch deposit, this does not pull through to the bank reconciliation. On the bank reconciliation report, the Description is "Payment: multiple items" and the Reference field is blank. This is not useful as I have to go into each transaction and see which company the receipt has come from. Why enter a reference when it does not appear on the bank reconciliation report? When I try to search to match deposits using the company name, these deposits do not appear as the Description is unhelpful. If there are smaller batches which add up to…

Overpayments - Create Overpayments with Tax on for cash basis VAT
Ability for Xero to treat an overpayment with VAT on - I don't want to use a secondary debtors control account.
We have a client on the VAT cash accounting scheme and we have a number of overpayments which need to hit the debtors control account. When I run the VAT return, these amounts are not being captured for VAT purposes since there is no option to select a tax rate when using the overpayments option.
Should I treat these as prepayments, Xero will allow me to code these to a nominal account with VAT. However, the nominal code I…

Reporting - Show all uncoded/unreconciled Account transactions in one report instead of singular accounts
There is currently an uncoded statement lines report that you can run to view all uncoded/unreconciled statement lines. There is however no report that shows unreconciled account transactions for multiple bank accounts at once. You have to run this all separately for each account to be able to view or go into each account on the dashboard and filter on unreconciled. For an organization with multiple credit cards and accounts this is absolutely time consuming and not an efficient use of time. We need a report like the uncoded statement lines report that reports on unreconciled account transactions and this…
13 votesThanks for sharing your idea, and letting us know the changes that matter most for you. We can appreciate the ability to view all uncoded account transactions on one report instead of having to go through each account. We're moving this idea to gain more support from the community. You may share this idea with your friends and colleagues who may also want to see these changes in Xero.

Reconcile period report
Provide a report which shows all bank accounts listed alongside the latest reconciled month for each bank account to provide a quick overview of which bank accounts have not been reconciled.
13 votesHi Maria, thanks for sharing your thoughts on this reconciliation period report idea. It’s been helpful to understand how a single view of reconciliation status for all bank accounts could support the way you manage your work.
This idea has now moved to Gaining Support, so it’s open for the community to add votes and comments. If others would find this useful, it’d be great to hear how it could fit into your workflow or any specific use cases you have in mind. That kind of detail really helps guide what we explore next.
