Bank Rules - Ability to import and export
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.

It's extremely important for our firm to be able to import and export bank rules.

If not yet allowing upload via the interface could you at least allow bank rule updates via the API?

This would be a massive help. I have a client who is moving sole trader to Ltd, so now I'm having to start a new with lots of bank rules that have been built over the years for the their selling site needing to be recreated :(

Allow importing them from another organization (client) or the system.

How about you do this instead of re-doing features already available like invoicing? This is more time-saving than 'Invoicing Faster'.

Absolutely agreee this would save lots of time! Not only when taking on a new client but also to cross polinate between clients.

Dear Xero team
Please advise where you are with adding this feature?
Seems like a simple task to be honest?
Kind regards

I have 15 companies with retail stores including Debonairs, Steers, Wimpy, Fishaway, Mugg & Bean, Barcelos & Galitos.
In sort i have 120 bank accounts that needs bank rules set up with tracking categories on each bank rule. Creating this manually is a huge task and very time consuming, i need a solution to either copy a bank rule and edit or export a batch rules, edit and then import again. -

This would be amazing for clients who are sole traders and have to incorporate or have to migrate to a new subscription for whatever reason - it would save so much time than having to copy 40x bank rules from one sub to another sub.

Since some clients use many of the same vendors, it would be nice to be able to either transfer bank rules from one client to another, or to be able to export bank rules previously created in one client, and then import them into a different client. This would be a huge time saver.

Import and export would be great.
Also, when you view you cannot see the value if it is a fixed amount, would be useful if when viewing you could see the value or the % ? -

This feature would be a massive time saver for all CA firms that have groups of clients in the same industries. It is very time consuming to have to create duplicate rules across every individual client ledger.

I'm not sure if this has been previously mentioned, but bank rules that could be setup as universals across all clients I think would be a very useful function.

Yes, all set-up screens should have import/export functionality

'you say you are a premium product'
It once seemed to be and/or intended to be but now the most premium about Xero is the price (and lack of support & development action is pretty good to ;-))

This really is a MUST feature that should be at the top brass level asking tecjh bods how quickly can we sort.
If top bods cannot see this they shouldnt be running the buisness as customers will go elsewhere
you say you are a premium product but this is abasic request - even sage allows you to import and export and xero would be the fisrt to say they are superior to sage - in this vital area they arte delinquent ion basic customer service.
Note Kelly Munro - sometimes ignoring the question and glosijg over the real need here is liekly to make people slightly irate. If you arent going to fix teh issue say nothig or tell us straight. This is a nota new gripe by any means.
