  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. Dear Xero Team,

    I am a regular user of the Xero Cloud Portal and appreciate the platform's intuitive features for managing business finances.

    However, I am currently facing a challenge when reconciling bank transactions. I frequently receive bulk deposits that are made up of a large number of small invoices—often exceeding 100. Unfortunately, Xero's current system limits me to matching only up to 100 invoices against a single deposit. This creates a significant bottleneck in my reconciliation process and affects my workflow efficiency.

    Feature Suggestion:
    It would be extremely helpful if Xero could increase the invoice matching limit to at…

  3. 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.

  4. 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.

  5. When reconciling bills, add a search criteria of bill transaction date/due date.

    I want to be able to search a wholesalers name and filter which month we received the bill so I can select that whole month of bills and reconcile to the payment. Rather than having to tick individual bills.
    Image highlights in yellow the two existing criteria - this is where I would add in the date range criteria.

  6. 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.

  7. 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.

  8. It would be so time-saving to allow us to create default shortcut options for the reconciliation adjustment instead of only being able to choose "Bank Fee" or "Minor Adjustment". My "Bank Fee" is always the same information for all field (except for the amount), so why can't I just select a button that I can name something like "MY Bank Fee Default" and it fills in the fields automatically and takes me directly to the amount field?! This would save people HOURS of time every month when reconciling.

  9. It would be help helpful to be able to edit reconciled transactions within the Xero phone application.

    I often want to fix something on the go and have to wait until I can get to a computer.

  10. Id love to have the ability to only auto reconcile expenses and not invoice or payments. My customers love to prepay and the auto feature closes those invoice before i can actually create the prepayment and apply it to their account. But auto recognizing bills or expenses only would be a huge time saver. or even have a section of all the matches and be able to approve them in batches.

  11. we run a third party front end system and Xero. we need to be able to manual journal payments to the bank account.
    Currently as xero wont allow journals to the bank account we need to run these through a separate account and it is very hard to keep it reconciled.

  12. 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.

  13. 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. Currently there is the inability to edit one payment in a batch deposit that was created from the Reconcile screen without dismantling the entire batch (with Unreconcile, and then Remove and Redo). If the batch Deposit is created from the Invoice screen and one line item needs adjusting, we have and option to Edit Batch. This allows for removing one line item of the batch but preserves the remainder of the batch (less the removed line item). Please add the Edit Batch function to batch deposits created in the Reconcile screen too! It is a big pain point when you…

  15. 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.

  16. Add tracking categories to the find and match function on the bank reconciliation screen. this would make matching payments to invoices easier for my clients as they have payments taken via DD per branch

  17. When an account is reconciled and the report is created for the period, it would be nice if there was a little summary alert for the end date of the most recent report on the dashboard tile (i.e. reconciled up to and including 28 Feb 2025). This would help to make VERY clear immediately which accounts are reconciled to which date and help to plan which accounts need work or need a report and which are done for the reporting period you are working on.

  18. When preparing monthly CIS returns on xero you need to create a bill for the subcontractor and reconcile/mark the bill as paid. When you have clients that have on average 80 to 120 subcontractors the bill creation even with a bill template can be time consuming.
    Something to consider is whether creating a bill could be removed from this process and the CIS return be prepared simply from a spend money to a CIS enable contact.
    Also something else that can be time consuming when dealing with this volume of subcontractors is downloading the monthly CIS payment certificates as clients…

  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.
