Bank Reconciliation - Custom templates/defaults for reconciliation adjustments
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.
3 votesHi there,
Thank you for this suggestion!
I’ve assessed your idea and moved it to Gaining Support. Being able to create custom adjustment shortcuts would be a massive win for efficiency, especially for practices or businesses dealing with high volumes of bank transactions.
I've also updated the title to Bank Reconciliation - Custom templates/defaults for reconciliation adjustments to help others with the same pain point find and support this.
A quick tip for now: If your bank fees always come from the same bank account or have a consistent description on your bank statement, you might be able to automate this entirely using Bank Rules.
By setting up a "Spend Money" bank rule, Xero can automatically suggest the account, description, and tax rate the moment the bank statement line hits your screen, meaning you wouldn't even need to click the Adjustment button!
We’ll keep you posted on any…

Spend Money - Prefill last entered transaction
For Spend Money, to help speed up entry:
Prefill the last entry for that Contact. Most venders (e.g. "Uber") will be the same expense type over and over. Having the 1st item prefill from the last entry will save time.
2 votesThanks for the extra detail, Sandy. We don't have any direct plans around this atm, however we're working on automated bank reconciliation which should help cut down the manual entry of reconciliations for spend money transactions overtime.
There is also Bank rules that can pick on particulars of your statement lines to help with reconciling - However, it sounds like you're manually creating these transactions before they're reconciled?

Bank Reconciliation - use the bank feed as a calculator
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

Stripe - Add tracking code for Stripe fees
Stripe connected payment service - ability to add tracking code to stripe fee.
We use tracking codes for all P&L transactions, connected payment service does not have tracking code option so need to add tracking code manually to all reconciled stripe fees - there are a lot to recode. Since its a connected payment service it takes precedence over any bank rule, so change needs to happen in connected payment service.1 voteThanks for the feedback, Nicole. Appreciate how this could be handy if you have a lot of payment fees that are needing to be coded.
We don't have any immediate plans on this but will start to track the interest here and share if there are any plans made.

Bank Rec | Adjustments - Use Tab key to confirm selection instead of Enter
As Xero started to update existing modules, the "new" modules, took on this idiotic philosophy/logic that users should need to click Enter before clicking Tab.
Previously, I could type an account name (or part of one), use up/down arrows to highlight the account in the list, then click Tab to confirm the selection and move to the next field.
This is (fortunately) still the case in the Create transaction screen.
This functionality was removed from New Invoicing.. but fortunately, it was eventually returned.
This functionality has been removed from Adjustments > Bank Fee function.
It's annoying as ****. Just fix…

Cash coding - Floating headers in cash coding screen
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.

Pullen Holdings (Pty) Ltd t/a CEPS8 votesHi 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.

Bank reconciliation - Increase find and match limit
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…4 votesThanks for sharing your idea with us, Dora. We appreciate you taking the time to let us know what changes matter to you.

Banking - Ability to enter and save a "Verified Statement Balance"
Ability to enter actual statement balance and statement date (i.e. from a PDF), compared to what the bank feed assumes it to be. This way we can verify that a user has actually checked the bank balance and the last date it was verified (and for what value). Xero is far to easy to post historic transactions without a clear reconciliation (due to always having items in "unreconciled" at any point in time.
There could be a link from the Bank reconciliation report, or as mentioned above, a box to enter last statement balance and date, for better oversight all…
1 voteHi Mark, appreciate your idea on this! Being able to mark a bank balance as verified would make month-end checks much easier and give you confidence that everything lines up. Right now, reconciling differences can eat up extra time.
At the moment, you can cross-check using the Bank Reconciliation Summary report, but a built-in verification option would streamline this.
This idea is now in Gaining Support so we can see how many of you would find this helpful and share that insight with the product team.

Bank Rules - previous/next rule navigation
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.

Bank Reconciliation - Select multiple statement lines to reconcile against transactions
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.

Practice Manager - Use the Ask feature to send and receive the Uncoded Statement Lines report
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.

Overpayment - Ability to change to Credit Note
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…

Bank rule - Ability to set custom order when applying a rule in cash coding
When selecting to apply bank rules manually they are automatically shown in alphabetical order. I can see that this will be helpful for many, but it would also be useful to be able to manually set the order.
We have so many, I've had to apply numbers in the rule names e.g '1 - name a' '1 - name b' '2 - name a' '2 - name b'
Instead I'd like to be able to categories / group / manually order them.
1 voteThanks for also touching base with our support team on your idea here, Joanna. And, always welcome to reply to our status update if there is detail we're missing here in Product ideas 🙂
I'll re-open your idea here understanding it's more related to the rule ordering when applying through cash coding.

Bank Reconciliation - Record Spend and Receive money when reconciling
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…
1 voteThanks 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.

Spend Money - "Save" vs "Save and Close" - Add an option for Save (continue editing) similar to bills
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.

Banking & Transactions - Suggestion for displaying the running difference when detailing transactions
When 'Adding details' or editing a transaction, the running total amount needs to equal the original transaction amount (money receive or spent). Some businesses require entering multiple line item entries in order to balance a deposit or withdraw. XERO states the total amount entered at the bottom, but does not state the 'Mathematical Difference' between the original transaction amount & the running total. In order to determine this, a manual calculator is needed. XERO should state the running total as well as the running difference.
