    Hey everyone, thanks for for letting us know that this is important to you. We agree that having an up-to-the-minute view of your bank transactions, every day of the week, helps make managing your finances so much easier.

    The great news is that many banks already offer daily feeds that include weekends and public holidays. Since each bank determines the frequency of their feeds, the availability of this can vary.

    If you’re with a bank that doesn’t currently send transactions every day, we encourage you to also reach out to them directly to request this from them specifically, and this will help them to inform demand for this.

    We’ll keep this idea open for votes and comments to track the demand for this idea in general, and let you know if there are any updates here.

  2. It would be wonderful if in Bank rules we could also include the fee that will be taken out.
    Eg a deposit of $100 from Fresha attracts a $2 fee. The bank feed shows $98 . Is there a way to be able to bank rule this

  3. I'd like to request the integration of a WesBank loan feed, similar to the bank feed functionality. This addition would significantly improve efficiency in managing loan transactions within Xero.

  4. Given that your bank feeds constantly don’t work, it would be great if they could be refreshed via the app, rather than having to login to a computer.

  5. Xero should auto import all the transactions from the bank feeds even if it appears to be double entries of the same transaction. For example Toll fees with the same amount on the same day are only imported once into xero although all the transactions are on the bank's online profile.

  7. Add a function to allocate transactions in an account against each other so you can easily identify which transactions are making up the balance (e.g. in a PAYE you would allocate the payment to HMRC against the payroll journal).

  8. While our primary business banking account transactions import automatically via a bank feed, the process of importing the transactions from our payment processors/gateways into their respective bank accounts in Xero are manual and add many hours of admin - there is already some integration with these gateways to support payments and this could be extended to include transactions flowing into Xero.

  9. Could Xero either provide notifications to users when their bank feed has automatically retrieved their transactions or have a place in Xero where a user can see the time their feed has automatically been updated. This would help those people who receive notifications from their banks when somebody has successfully logged in know that it is from a legitimate source.

  11. Xero has some feeds for First Citizens but apparently not for FCB Commercial Advantage customers. It's worth noting that Commercial Advantage is for FCB's bigger customers albeit We're a $5MM revenue entity so we're not really that big. And Commercial Advantage is accessible nationwide (USA). Furthermore, FCB is not a regional bank anymore. I mean, they bought Silicon Valley Bank after the collapse so I think it's safe to say they've got some size to them. And the real kicker is that I currently download our statements in a Quicken format from FCB so they obviously could set up a…

  12. We would like the option to setup a data feed in our Xero file for BPoint transactions to feed directly into Xero (like we have a data feed for our CBA business account). Currently these transactions come in through the CBA business account with no detail other than that they are a BPoint payment, whereas if we had the BPoint data feed setup we could receive all of this information (client name, invoice number, amount etc) to reconcile automatically.

    Hi everyone, thanks for your votes on the idea for a direct bank feed for BPoint. We're keeping this idea open to continue gathering support from the community.

    At present, the level of transaction detail that appears in your main Commonwealth Bank (CBA) feed is determined by the bank. If you'd like to see more detailed BPoint information within your standard bank feed, we recommend passing this feedback on to CBA directly to see if they can make changes to the data they send.

    You also may wish to explore the option of manually importing your BPoint transactions as a potential workaround to capture the details you need. If you can export this transaction data from BPoint directly, you can then import the file directly into Xero to reconcile.

    We will continue to keep an eye on the interest for this idea.

  13. BNZ do not provide receivers with online access to accounts. Xero only allow BNZ bank feeds to be updated online. Receiving timely access to transactions is very important but BNZ & Xero have decided to cease this feature and not provide a solution for all customers.

  14. Transactions imported by Yodlee Bank Feed do not display in the chronological order that they occur in my online banking portal or bank statements.

    As I have a lot of bank transactions on any given day, this makes it time consuming to do any kind of reconciliation between by online bank account and my bank feed import as I have to match each transaction up in the different orders they appear.

    This is a regular occurrence as Yodlee sometimes imports transactions part way through a day and I have to work out where I got up to processing these transactions…

  16. We have two accounts (bank & credit card) from the same institution. For bank feeds, please allow multiple logins from the same institution.

    Once we login for a bank feed on one of the accounts, we can't set up the bank feed for the other account. It just asks us to choose the already logged in account.

    This is documented here:
    https://central.xero.com/s/question/0D51N000055543jSAA/how-do-i-connect-two-accounts-from-the-same-bank-that-have-different-logins

    I also reached out to support. They said "a Xero user can only use one set of credentials (per bank) in a Xero organisation. We recommend that you ask another Xero user to login and activate the feed…

    Hi team, thanks for sharing this idea and for the detailed explanation of how this affects your workflow. We understand that it's common for a business to hold multiple accounts with different login credentials at the same bank.

    Currently, Xero's architecture is built to link one set of banking credentials per user in an organisation. While we'll keep this idea open to monitor interest from the community, we want to be transparent that we don't have any immediate plans to make changes in this area.

    The recommended solution is to have another user in your Xero organisation connect the bank feed using the alternative credentials.

    If you would prefer not to have another person involved, you can add yourself as a user with an alternative email address and connect the second feed that way. It is free to add extra users to a Xero organisation, so this will not affect…

    Thanks for sharing your feedback and votes for adding Westpac foreign currency account feeds, community.

    While a direct feed isn't currently available for these accounts, you can still keep up-to-date in Xero by manually importing your transactions.

    Just to give you a bit of insight into how these feeds are built – we rely on our banking partners to make specific account types available to us. The best way to get this on Westpac's radar is for them to hear directly from you, so we encourage you to reach out to them and request support for foreign currency account bank feeds.

    For this reason, we're unable to say if or when feeds might be available for these accounts, but we'll continue to keep an eye on the support for this idea, and let you know if there are any changes in this area.

  18. Bank Feed - During month-end we have more than 250 lines to import per day for the wages. The import function on Xero is for less than that per day, so we have to do some lines manually.. Will you please increase the import function on the lines per day?

  19. We have just changed a lot of our clients over from MYOB where we could get supplier account numbers, IRD numbers etc in the bank feed details, and could then set bank rules for them based on the supplier account number or IRD no & tax type etc.

    With many transactions Xero gives us a lot less information. Often the supplier account number is missing, or IRD tax type & IRD number are missing - along with many other details. This makes using bank rules impossible for many transactions, and takes a lot longer to reconcile manually as we have…
