Cash Coding - Bulk assign expenses to Projects
Assign multiple transactions to a project in cash coding. There should also be a projects field on the main page, rather than having to go to "add details>assign to project>search for project>click project>click ok>click reconcile".
As with many travelling workers, many of my transactions for a trip are all bunched together and it would save me so much on bookkeeping time and fees to be able to select multiple statement lines or transactions and "assign all" in one click. Under cash coding makes sense because the checkbox already exists for each line, Projects just becomes another column.

Reconciliation - menu to jump to next account to reconcile
When in a bank account and want to reconcile another bank bank account, it would be really handy from the drop down where we can choose the next bank account to go to, if the number of unreconciled items could also be visible within next to the name of the bank account.
This stops going back to the homepage to see which account to go into next to reconcile.

Bank rules - Improve view & scroll
It would be really helpful if the way the list of bank rules is displayed, when selecting them in the cash coding screen, was improved and made more user friendly.
Often I have to manually apply bank rules (due to other bank rule limitations). We have a lot, so this means scrolling through the list each time.
The arrow to display the whole list is tiny, requiring precise hovering to select it, and each click only moves the list at once.
They could be displayed in a better way, at least in columns, and more shown at once.

Find and Recode - Filter by Account Type
It would be helpful to be able to filter items to find and recode by income statement or balance sheet items rather than having to sort by code and selecting the applicable ones or filtering by ALL the applicable codes, which is very time consuming.
2 votesHi everyone, thanks for sharing this idea ✨. We’ve reviewed your suggestion to be able to search within Find and Recode by account type, rather than needing to search by individual account. We’re moving this idea to Gaining Support so it can build support from the wider community.

Reconciliation - Allow an 'Edit' option for existing batch reconciliation without requiring a full Remove and Redo
We make one Batch payment to suppliers each day. So we simply reconcile on the 'Find and Match' screen against the bills or overpayments. If however, we accidentally paid reconciled a payment to the wrong supplier, we have to 'Remove & Redo' the full payment - and then re-reconcile correctly.
Xero should have the ability to simply EDIT the reconciliation to change allow us to change the contact or whatever other permutations might be.
Or atleast include this in the Find and Recode facility somehow
1 voteThanks for sharing more detail around your workflow. We understand the request to edit a reconciled batch without needing to remove and recreate it. Having the flexibility to make minor changes to an existing batch could help save time and reduce rework.
In the meantime, you can leverage the Batch Payment feature to select relevant bills and credit notes from the Bills list, and create a batch payment transaction. You can then simply match the batch payment transaction to the statement line without having to manually select each bills from the Find & Match table.
We've updated this idea to Gaining Support so we can continue tracking interest from the community. If this would improve your workflow, add your vote and let us know how you'd like to use it.

Bank Reconciliation - Add "Last Month" and "This Month" shortcut buttons with item counts to the Reconciliation screen
Show how many lines to reconcile per month:
I only use Xero once month, to do last months accounts. I know some people go in every day, or every few days and reconcile a few transactions, but I just do it all once a month and print the end of month reports. I am sure a large portion of people do this too.
I reconcile all previous months transactions, and run the reports. Say it is 8 April, I don't need to reconcile any transactions for April. I just want to close off March.
Therefore I want the blue "Reconcile…
2 votesHi everyone, thanks for sharing this suggestion. We understand you’re looking for quick filters like “Last Month” and “This Month”, along with transaction counts, within the bank reconciliation dashboard to help prioritise outstanding items.
Having these shortcuts and clearer visibility could make it easier to review specific periods and track reconciliation progress.
I’ve updated this idea to Gaining Support so we can continue gathering feedback and examples from the community.

Bank Reconciliation - Copy transfer transaction
I would like to be able to copy a Transfer transaction.
When viewing a transaction on the "Transaction: Spend Money" screen, the "Options" menu includes a "Copy" function. However, when viewing a transaction on the "Transaction: Transfer" screen, the "Options" menu does not have the "Copy" function. Please add the "Copy" function in the "Options" menu on the "Transaction: Transfer" screen.
6 votesHi Gregory, thanks for raising an idea in the forums here. To try get a better understanding of your workflow, is there a reason you would generally want to create the Transfer transactions prior to reconciling in your bank account?

Reconciliation - Autofill account and tax when applying a bank fee
It is frustrating when manually reconciling transactions when a variance is a bank transaction fee and I select 'Bank Fee' as the reason for the difference only to then have to select bank fee again when completing the transaction line presented for the Bank Fee.
Surely, if I have selected 'Bank Fee' as the reason for the difference, the line presented could have the 'Bank Fee' nominal account pre-selected and the appropriate Tax Rate populated given that it is for a Bank Fee?
It's only a small thing, but it bugs me.4 votesThanks for sharing your idea, and letting us know the changes that matter most for you. We appreciate you explaining how autofilling the account and tax fields when applying a bank fee could streamline reconciliation.

Bank Reconciliation - Ability to "park" or hold complex transactions in a separate tab on the Reconcile screen
Suspension of transactions waiting for more information
Please please please
When doing the reconciliations can there be a quick action button that lets me set aside this transaction for now so I can continue with the easier reconciliations and then come back to these ones.
Ideally the selected transactions would change colour and stay at the top of the list for revisiting. Even perhaps with a line underneath them to delineate from the main recon list.
The "suspension list" would not be part of the scrolling or page selection, as we need to easily see that they still need to…1 voteHi Dianne, thanks for sharing your feedback here.
Having a way to temporarily park bank statement lines during reconciliation could make it easier to work through high volumes of transactions without losing your place when an item needs further investigation.
I've updated the status of this idea to Gaining Support. If this is a feature you'd like to see, please continue to vote and share how you currently manage these transactions. Your feedback helps us better understand how this could support different reconciliation workflows.

Bank Reconciliation - Option to Edit rule from the Reconcile screen
Add a current transaction to an existing back rule with one-click!
This is a no brainer. Instead of going bank to rules to add another condition, we should be able to click - options: add to bank rule. End of story!6 votesThanks for your idea.

Bank Reconciliation - Ability to change statement lines' date
Hi Xero,
When doing bank reconciliations, we often have to change the dates on rec lines.
It would save so much time if you did not have to click into the transaction to change the date.Likewise, in cash coding - You can change every other detail except the date, meaning you have to go back into individual transactions
Have attached screenshots.
1 voteHi Natalie, thanks for sharing your feedback here.
We can see how having the ability to edit the date on a bank statement line could help in situations where the bank processing date differs from the date you need for your reconciliation workflow.

Reconciliation | Find & Match - Default to show spent/received items
In Find and Find and Match function in Bank Reconciliation
Set the "Show spent items" and "Show receive items" to default to what was last used, OR to be always on.

Bank Reconciliation - Ability to enable or disable auto-reconciliation for Spend or Receive items
When auto-reconciling, separate spend items from received items. The Aged Receivables department does not find the auto-reconcile feature useful, whereas it is beneficial for the Aged Payables department.
There should be an option to enable auto-reconciliation for spend items while disabling it for received items
1 voteHi everyone, thanks for raising this idea. We understand why having separate controls for auto-reconciliation of Spend and Receive transactions would be useful, especially for teams managing different parts of the reconciliation process.
The idea is to allow users to enable or disable auto-reconciliation settings separately for Spend and Receive items, giving more flexibility over which transactions are automatically matched.
We encourage the community to vote on this idea if you’d find this workflow improvement useful.

Bank Rules - Increase the maximum number of conditions per rule
There's currently a max number of conditions that can be added to one bank rule of, I think, 16.
This is very limiting, particularly for some of our rules. For example:
A bank rule that adds location tracking data, for example, EU, UK, USA, Rest of the World, based on the payment card country code. There are more codes than I can list in the conditions for some of the rules.
A bank rule that adds location tracking data, but is based on the customer's email address because the payment card country code isn't pulled through for this particular type…

Find and Recode - Recode Transaction window option to always show TrackingOption1&2 fields
Recode Transaction window (for recode Source Transactions) needs an option to show TrackingOption1 & TrackingOption2 fields by default so users don't have to click +Add every time
1 vote💥 Thanks so much for sharing this idea — we can see how having TrackingOption1 and TrackingOption2 show by default in the Recode Transaction window could make Find & Recode quicker and easier to use.
We’ve moved this idea to Gaining Support so we can better gauge interest and understand how helpful this change would be for customers using this feature.
If this is something others would also like to see, we’d really encourage them to add their vote and share how they’d use it. That kind of feedback helps give us a clearer picture of the impact and demand for the idea.

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…

Bank Reconciliation - Search | Enable mid-string matching
Current behaviour:
When reconciling a transfer and searching for a bank account, the dropdown search only works if you enter text from the very start of the account name. For example, if I have an account called "Emerge COGS", I can only find it by typing "Emerge" - searching for "COGS" returns no results and causes the dropdown to glitch.
The inconsistency:
This search behaviour is inconsistent with other areas of Xero. When making a payment from a bill, the account search works with mid-string matching - searching for "COGS" correctly brings up "Emerge COGS". This creates confusion as users…2 votesThanks for sharing your idea, and letting us know the changes that matter most for you Dan. We appreciate you sharing your thoughts and providing a detailed example. We'll open this idea up to the community to gain more support.

Account transactions - Add Next and Previous navigation buttons within transaction views
When reconciling, I enter each transaction and ensure it is taxed correctly. At present I have to return to the main account transaction list, find my next transaction and enter that transaction each time.
It would be very handy to have a click through to the next transaction or click previous transaction buttons when viewing a specific transaction.
1 voteHi Leigh, thanks for your suggestion.
We understand you’re looking for a quicker way to move between transaction details, such as having next and previous navigation options when reviewing entries.
Having smoother navigation between transactions could make reviewing and correcting records more efficient.
We’ll continue to track feedback and interest from the community for this idea. In the meantime, you can open a specific transaction in a new tab for reviewing while keeping the list open in the original tab.
