Bank Reconciliation - Rank the best banks for reconciliation
Make the banks (like American Express) see how they need to fix their systems. It's not your fault transactions don't match up. The banks need to improve their data.

Multi-Entity - Intercompany Account Transaction Feed
There should be an ability to set up an intercompany account using the bank feed function between businesses that are 'connected'. This would save countless hours manually journalling transactions. You should be able to create a transaction in the bank feed, or mark an invoice as paid by the intercompany account and the corresponding transaction should show on the respective other company.

Bank Reconciliation - Show difference between Statement Balance and the balance at the actual bank
Where the Xero bank account balance and the bank's account balance don't match, but the account has been fully reconciled, Xero displays both balances.
It would be good if Xero would also show the difference, ie, how much is the difference between Xero and the bank.

Bank Reconciliation - Option to switch Spend Money to Receive Money
Bank accounts that do not have bank feeds - Spend money should have a reverse function in case a spend money is used when it is supposed to be a receive money.

Lock dates for time entries in xero projects
We're currently using xero projects a lot and something that happens fairly regularly is staff posting time entries into finalised periods. I.e. we have run reports and finalised an accounting period and then there have been later changes in those periods in xero projects. It would be good to be able to lock periods in xero projects as we do with financial informtation in xero.

Bank Feeds - Bank Feeds for ethical banks
Our charity places values first and in searching for a new current account for our organisation, ones with high ethical standards that synchronise with Xero is a very restricted field. CAF, Unity Trust, Triodos for example do not have bank feeds and they say this capacity sits with Xero. We currently bank with The Cooperative that scores well, and we have had to leave Barclays who have been exposed as very poor. To reduce risk we must have another account so my idea is that Xero takes the lead on establishing connections with more ethical banks enabling better choice for…

Lock dates - Ability to add password protection
Dear Xero product team,
Please could we have an option to Password protect Lock Dates.
Where certain user can only unlok Lock dates i.e. Accountants or Subscriber
At the moment anyone can unlock the Lock dates which defeats the purpose of the Lock Dates.
154 votesThank you for your engagement and feedback on this idea. We’ve seen some great suggestions in this thread on how a password-protected lock date could work. The current lock date feature prevents new transactions from being entered and can only be removed by Advisor level users, but we recognise that some users would benefit from introducing password protection.
As part of our new Xero Product Idea process, we have recently reviewed the idea and shifted this to “Accepted”. This reflects that this is an idea we’d like to develop, but that this isn’t currently on the roadmap. We'll be back with another update as soon as we have more to share.

Reconciliation | Find & match - Filter by outstanding
When a customer pays, could the find and match box show outstanding invoices for that customer instead of all customer outstanding invoices? It would speed up matching the payment
1 voteNot an idea I've seen raised yet, Lisa. Can see how this may be helpful when you have many invoices entered in your org. It's not something we have any plans around at present but we'll track the interest here and share if there's news.

Bank Statements - Specify whether Direct/Prepayments/Overpayments on the CSV file
When importing bank statements, it would be very useful if we could select (already in the csv perhaps) whether the payment is to be a Direct Payment, or rather a Prepayment.
We receive almost exclusively prepayments, and I find that when I import the statement, that I cannot select that the income lines should be treated as Prepayment.

Find and Recode - Ability to change the amount
Within the find and recode facility I would like the ability to change the amount posted. This can be particularly useful for repeating journals. For example, there could be a monthly release of a rent prepayment, where a rent review has been backdated several months and therefore the charge released needs adjusting historically. As it stands currently, each individual posting needs editing, rather than (say) being able to change 9 month's postings in one entry.
1 voteThanks for the detail in your idea here, Kevin. We don't have any plans to enable the changing of amount in Find & recode in the near term. We'll get a gauge a sense of the demand for this from community in your idea here.

Chart of Accounts - Multiple Accounts Receivable and Payable
It would be very useful to be able to separate Accounts Receivable and Accounts Payable to classify the contacts between external and internal (intercompany/group). This would assist with the consolidated views for a group of entities.

Bank Account | Account transactions - Export filtered transactions directly from screen
When searching for specific bank transactions(s) using the filter option, when found, it would be good to be able to export your findings directly from your screen. This would prove to be a very efficient way of exporting specific data quickly.
1 voteThanks for your idea, Lynn. While not exactly the same we have a somewhat similar idea across here. If you feel they're close enough I can merge?
This isn't something we have any plans for atm, however we'll get a sense of the interest in this from community and let you know if there's any updates.

Lock dates - Flexibility in setting period and accounts applied to
we have specific cut offs for certain aspects of our EOM so more options for locking periods in certain categories would be so beneficial.
lock revenue for a specific period once reviewed
lock a payroll period once closed for EOM
lock expenses or AP once closed6 votes -
Cash Coding - Keep the same sort order of uncoded statement lines
Sometimes the order of transactions is different in Uncoded Statement Lines Report to the transactions you are coding in Cash Coding. This means you cannot quickly enter codes from the Lines Report but have to carefully check line by line that it's the same transaction. This is extremely annoying, time consuming and occasionally results in incorrectly coded transaction lines. This has been a problem for years! It's terrible.

Bank feeds - Allow direct bank feeds with Discovery Bank
Please allow bank feeds to be connected via Discovery Bank. This is one of South Africa’s largest and fastest growing banks used by businesses.

Bank Reconciliation - Recap transaction option prior to reconciling
Please add Recap Transaction found in MYOB.
The feature allows you to see which accounts will be affected (debited or credited) by a transaction you're about to enter. Seeing what effect a particular transaction will have on the accounts allows one to know the outcome of transactions with accuracy. This is a powerful feature that can prevent incorrect entry of all kinds of transactions. See attached screenshot from MYOB5 votesAppreciate not the exact feature you're looking for here and will be good to get a sense of the interest of this here. In the meantime, I wanted to make sure you can find this information once reconciled. Those with the Standard or Adviser roles can run the Journal report to view recent impacts to accounts and the user that made each change.

Bank Rules - Ability to import and export
Allow users the ability to import and export bank rules.
This would save time having to manually create similar bank rules in Xero, and ease with new client organisation setup
526 votesHi community, thanks for your responses to our update and the continued interest this idea receives. We're keeping a watchful eye on the support this idea gathers.
As mentioned in my last update our immediate focus for now is delivering more automation and intelligent tools to help you reconcile faster.
However, we understand and appreciate the pain points shared through this idea and will move the status of this to Accepted as our product team look into more details around this and how we might plan this into the roadmap.
I'll keep you updated of any developments in this space.

Bank Feeds - Bank feed form status for all users
When a bank feed form is uploaded, you can see the status of this - currently if one person has uploaded bank feed form, no one else can tell. Would be great if it just showed "bank feed form uploaded and being processed" or something
11 votesHi everyone, thank you for this great suggestion about making the status of bank feed applications visible to all users within a Xero organisation.
We understand that when one team member submits a bank feed form, the lack of visibility can lead to confusion or duplicate work for others.
We encourage you and other members to vote, and add comments below sharing how having a shared status like "bank feed form uploaded and being processed" would improve your team's workflow.
While we don't currently have plans to build this functionality, we'll be keeping a close eye on the support for this idea here and will keep you informed of any updates.

Chart of Accounts - Ability to assign Foreign Currency to an account
I would like to be able to have a foreign currency account in the COA other than bank accounts. If an invoice is received and paid in a foreign currency, it should show as the foreign currency as the source, not the base currency. This affects loan accounts a lot and if invoices are paid from a loan account, instead of a bank account, you can't keep the currency consistent.

Batch Deposit - Create multi contact deposit without invoices
In QB you can "create a deposit" and in each line item, you can assign a customer, assign a GL account, class & amount. (there is also a line to assign to an invoice/customer ledger if you use those). You can then print a deposit slip from this as well!
PLEASE make this function available.
It is a hassle to enter every check or payment into "Receive Money", then have to go back and try to match up all the correct payments to the bank deposit in the bank reconciliation.
But if we don't do it like that, we cannot…5 votes
