  1. Hi All,

    On cash coding screen, it would be great if there was an option to freeze the heading panels so you dont have to keep scrolling up if you have millions of lines to code. Eg: to uncheck all

    Thank you so much.

    Hi everyone, just a quick update to let you know we’ve reviewed this idea and marked it as Gaining Support.

    The suggestion to add floating headers in the cash coding screen makes a lot of sense, especially for those of you working through long lists of transactions.

    We’re keeping an eye on how much interest this gets, so if it’s something that would help you, feel free to add your vote or leave a comment. That kind of input really helps when we're looking at what to prioritise next.

  2. Please allow direct bank feeds with Fidelity. They are one of the largest financial institutions in the world!!

    Returning to the idea here we appreciate while Xero currently supports feeds for Personal Fidelity bank account types it's not possible to set up a feed for investment account types.

    We'd like to track and understand the interest from our community in this. We'll share with everyone here if plans are made.

  3. While in the reconcile screen, when I type in who and it pulls up my contact, I would like it to automatically default to the gl acct that I already have on the Contact card. I have to click on details then go to the gl box click on it to see what the gl acct is. Sometimes lets say Costco it could either by Office Supplies or Auto Expense(gas). So when I type up the Costco contact I would like to see what gl acct it is going to and if I need to change it to Auto Expense…

  4. It would be great if we could do a bulk recode of due dates for invoices. EG, all May invoices for a particular supplier can be recoded so the due date shows 30 June.

  5. Convert Overpayment to Credit Note, or treat Overpayment the same as Credit note.

    We have a lot of customers who double pay their invoices and several who would like to see what credit they have on their account as they will order again - so don't bother with a refund.

    Creating overpayments seems like the most logical thing to do, but the functionality of overpayments is lacking in every way. There is no way to send a pdf version of an overpayment to a customer except for printing a statement. I've upvoted the suggestion to add printing functionality, but that…

  7. 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 ...

  8. I always want to reconcile my newest transactions first, as they are freshest in my head. It's actually become pretty maddening not having this feature.

  9. It would be very useful to be able to search bank rules for an account code, since account codes cannot be archived/deleted if there is an associated bank rule. I eventually found the relevant bank rule but it was very time consuming to go through each bank rule individually - there can be hundreds of bank rules.

  10. In the bank account settings, add an optional data field to enter in the Overdraft limit on a bank account. Then on the dashboard screen, show the net available balance of current bank balance + the undrawn Overdraft limit.

    Purpose - to save the user from having to manually calculate how much is available to make supplier/payroll payments or login to internet banking prior to check.

    Should also be a simple feature to add.

    Hi team, thanks for your contributions here. We appreciate how some business may find it useful to be able to see at a glance the available overdraft limit of a bank account they have connected to Xero.

    This is something we'll continue to track the appetite in through the idea, however want to be upfront that we don't have any immediate plans of developing a field for.

    Hi team, we appreciate how having a direct option to enter an Overpayment from the Create tab in the Reconcile screen would save time.

    Just to confirm as Gerard has noted, right now if you click 'Add details' in the bottom right of the Create box this will expand the modal so you can use the 'Received as'/'Spent as' drop down to select Overpayment and enter the relevant details of the transaction.

    Being open, we don't have plans for adding this option directly to the page just at this time, but are continuing to get a pulse of the interest through this idea. I'll share of there are any updates.

  12. Would be really useful to have the ability to add Spend or Receive money transactions (overpayments or prepayments) within the mobile app. At p[resent the only options are bank fees or adjustments. So quite often reconciling transactions requiring this type of action need to be left until able to access a full web browser version.

  13. On the reconciliation screen in the bank account, if a transaction is being picked up by a rule, could we see both which rule it is being picked up by as well as the name, account, description, and tax details that the rule is using?

    Thanks for the idea, Garrett. This isn't in any plans at the moment, but we'll keep an eye on it as the team are thinking about this in the wider context of the bank reconciliation process.

    In the meantime a workaround could be to include those details in the title of your bank rule. For example Supplier Name - Motor (20% VAT)

  14. There needs to be a better matching system with Xero.

    For example I have two statement lines that cancel each other out. You should be able to match two statement lines to each other rather than creating invoice/bill to reconcile each line.

    Additionally, being able to reconcile multiple statement lines with multiple invoices/bills, overpayments or prepayments needs to be a thing.

  15. 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

  16. 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.

  17. On the find and match screen, can we have the ability to expand the size of the window showing the list of transactions, so we spend less time on scrolling. The find and match shows 50 invoices at a time, but you have to scroll to see them.

  18. Our clients would like the option to show reconciled and uncoded options on the same uncoded items report. Moving from MYOB/Banklink they are used to reviewing all transactions and having the ability to add notes for us to then code and add in the accounting software. We have many clients who fill in this form for us to then enter into the software and at present then only way to show this is running a bank reconciliation report.

    Appreciate familiarity to the way your clients may have worked with another system. 

    As noted in the initial idea while there's specifically a report for uncoded statement lines, the Bank Reconciliation report will provide a list of all statement lines (coded and uncoded) - Is there something missing within this report that you're looking for in this? 

    @Wayne, livestock trading is quite different to what's being asked for in this thread - you can join the idea for this across here. 

  19. Refund transaction that links to a previous Spend money transaction
    Hi Xero users,
    When we received a refund for a payment, the only option is to record the received amount as a separate transaction in the same account.
    There is no option to link the refund transaction to the previous completed spend transaction unless it is a Bill.
    It would be very helpful if Xero can add this feature
    This way, when we click on a spend transaction, we can know immediately if it is refunded or not, cause the two spend and received transactions are at different date so…

    Hi Hayley, thanks for bringing this idea to the community. We understand that being able to link refunds back to the original transaction could simplify reconciliation and record keeping.

    I've updated the status to Gaining Support so we can continue tracking interest. If this were introduced, how would you like the linking process to work? Your input could help shape the approach.
