  1. 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.

    Thanks 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.

  2. when allocating payments to invoices, would be helpful if xero selected the oldest invoice at that value rather than the most recent invoice raised for that client. We have a number of clients that have monthly invoices for same value (subscription/services etc) and Xero always suggests the most recent which isnt helpful.

  3. On the Account Transactions screen for Reconciled transactions. Would be great to have columns to show the Reconcillation Type and Payment Type (Invoice, Bill etc).

    This would make it easier to identify and sort transactions on that screen

    Appreciate you sharing how viewing this information from the Account Transactions of a bank account would be useful to you, jason.

    While this isn't something we have plans to add just atm, we'll start to get a sense of the interest fro others in this here. I'll share if there are any updates.

  4. 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…

  5. Within Expenses, have the ability to claim International Freight charges. Many freight forwarders charge a credit card for larger values and do not offer direct debit facility. We do not have company credit cards, so it is charged to a personal card and claimed. My only work around is to charge it as a bill to the freight forwarder, then pay the individuals credit card.

    Hi Timothy, just trying to better understand your idea. Currently it's possible to enter a foreign currency expense claim through Xero expenses.

    An employee could submit a claim for the amount of the international freight charge to be reimbursed by the business. Is there something missing in this feature that would help here?

  6. 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.

    Thanks 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?

  7. I WANT TO RECONCILE REFUND FROM BILL WHICH I ALREADY PAID BUT THERE NO OPTION TO RECONCILATION REFUNDED AMOUNT OF THAT BILL THAT WE PAID IF THERE IS LET ME KNOW BUT MAKE THINGS SIMPLE

  8. wanted to suggest an enhancement to how overpayments are handled within Xero.

    In situations where we receive a customer overpayment that cannot be immediately allocated, the current process requires us to step outside of Xero to contact the customer and clarify what the payment relates to.

    What would be highly beneficial is:
    A built-in option to trigger an “Overpayment Query” email directly from within Xero.

    Proposed functionality:

    A button/action against an overpayment (e.g. “Query Customer”)
    Pre-populated email template including:
    Customer name
    Payment amount
    Payment date/reference
    Ability to customise the message before sending
    Email sent directly from Xero and logged against…

  9. It would be great if Xero could automatically do the transfer between Xero bank accounts.
    This is our most time consuming and often error-prone coding in Xero when it should be a simple fix. Many clients still battle with this.

  10. Option (in Settings) not to allow creation of new transaction to reconcile incoming payment and only allow reconciliation against either existing invoices or from the Match/Create form. We have had a couple of occasions where clicking OK in error on a transaction creates a new transaction that fully reconciles a payment leaving invoices unreconciled and sending overdue emails.

    Every day I wish that was possible!

  12. When reconciling transactions and Find & Match is used, usually for multiple matches, please add an attachment button.
    In the example of one payment matched to multiple sales invoices, there is usually a remittance provided by the client that we need to file with the payment.
    We shouldn't need to go back to a reconciled transaction and manually add the remittance to each line individually.

  13. 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.

  14. The “Allocate Credit Balance” screen when applying supplier credit notes to bills is confusing and misleading.

    The “Amount to Credit” input fields appear inactive because there is no cursor change, highlight, or visual focus indicator when hovering or clicking into the fields. This makes users believe the fields are disabled.

    Additionally, the checkbox on the left suggests it must be selected before entering an amount, but it does not actually control allocation behaviour. This creates confusion during supplier reconciliation workflows.

    This resulted in unnecessary troubleshooting time and could easily be improved with clearer input focus styling or better checkbox behaviour.

  15. 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

  16. 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…

  18. 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…

  19. 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.

  20. Many customers pay in cash but still want an invoice sent. I need a way to mark invoices as paid in cash without it appearing to go through a bank account, as this makes reconciliation difficult. A simple “Paid in Cash” option posting to a cash or undeposited funds account would fix this.
