  1. I would like to be able to link a bank login to multiple clients. So if the client has multiple businesses under one login, I should be able to link the bank feed to each Xero file. Currently I can only have one bank connected to one client if they can see multiple businesses on the same login.

    Hi Elizabeth, is there a particular bank your client is with that you're looking to connect to multiple orgs? For some bank feeds this is possible, but not all. It'd be good to know what bank you're using that you'd like to do this with.

  2. It would be nice when you import a custom chart of accounts to prepopulate the GIFI, similar to the report codes.

  3. Thanks for adding this feature. I'm trying it and I noticed that if you copy and paste a value with a $ in it, it will not paste properly. Sometimes when you copy paste opening or closing balances from PDF it copies including the dollar sign.

    Please allow to paste the value with the $ in it.

    Also, there doesnt seem to be any way of deleting a draft period. Please consider adding a small garbage bin icon in the period list and inside the period.

    Thanks!

    Hi team, returning to this idea we wanted to confirm that we are still watching the interest ands support for being able to copy and paste amounts with a $ sign here however this isn't something we have any direct plans for right now. Please make sure to get your colleagues that would also like to see this to vote for the idea here. If there are any changes for this idea we will share an update here. Thanks

  4. If a Xero client has a credit card that is cancelled due to scam or new card etc, the only option is to create a new bank feed for the card so you can continue to get the data. In this instance, you end up with two bank accounts on your Xero file, both with a balance. At the moment, you can only do a transfer to move 1 balance to the other, than archive the one not needed. It would be nice to be able to merge the two together so that the balance works and the transactions stay…

  5. As a bookkeeper, I want Xero to support bank feeds for my company’s Certificate of Deposit (CD) savings accounts. My financial institution (Chase) sends data on my CDs to the Xero feed, however, Xero ignores the CD accounts in feed. CDs are supported by other FinTech companies with similar feeds, and should be a low effort feature for Xero to implement.

  6. Mobile/ipad bank reconciliation

    Request to show in the suggested green match it is 1 of many if more than 1 matching invoice (as it does in desktop)

    Else payments can be matched to incorrect same value invoices - what a headache to fix later..

    AND

    … find and match can only search by name or invoice number -

    Please add to search by invoice amount (as this will help with when there are multiples to choose the correct one)

    Thank you

  7. Being new to the business, new to finance and bookkeeping and even newer to Xero we are starting from scratch with our "Chart of Accounts". As we grow and want to create sub accounts for clearer reporting - having to manually 'add account' each time, and reselecting all the appropriate account settings is very time consuming, especially for a novice like me. Being able to right click and choose to duplicate an existing account and then be prompted to rename/renumber it would be so much quicker.

    My work around is currently to open up the existing account - take a…

  10. When using find and recode it would be helpful to show the grand total of the line total column at the bottom. This way you know if the isolated transactions in your Excel worksheet matches with all the conditional filtered transactions in find and recode.

  11. Adding more banks in Singapore for the bank feed in Xero.

    Example, adding Anext Bank into Xero. Will benefit small businesses who are using digital bank like Anext Bank.

    Hi all, just updating the status of this idea to Gaining Support here, to align with our new statuses for Xero Product ideas. You can read more about this on our blog.

    For the time being, you can keep your accounts up to date in Xero by manually importing statements from Anext Bank. As per our last update below, we'd also recommend sharing this link with your bank to let them know you'd like to see them connect with Xero, and they can fill in the form if they're interested in Partnering with us.

    While we don't have any direct plans for this atm, we'll share if any are made with you here.

  12. When a payment is made into the business account an email notifcation is sent automatically.

  13. Being able to turn off "suggest previous entries" can prevent clients being to trigger happy with the "Ok's" in the bank rec screen. Unfortunately, this option does not flow through to the Xero APP. Can this please be updated.

    Hey everyone! The ability to manually refresh your bank feed really depends on the type of connection you have. For many banks connected via Yodlee, you can already give the feed a nudge and refresh it manually within Xero when you're ready to reconcile. Some of our direct API connections also support this, with a few even importing transactions in near real-time.

    As this feature is only available on some feeds, we've moved this idea's status to 'Gaining Support' to align with our new statuses for Xero Product ideas. You can read more about this on our blog. 

    While building a manual refresh option for every feed type is not on our immediate roadmap, we're keeping a close eye on your votes and comments to help us gauge demand for future work.

  15. Xero Bank Feed connections: Would it be possible to connect payment services for Stripe to more than two bank accounts, I can currently setup GBP (primary currency) and USD but can't setup for EUR or CAD. Our Stripe payments are collected in the currency and paid out to our bank accounts in these currencies but the payment service settings will only allow these two currencies to connect to the GBP payments which mean a manual process to transfer between accounts in Xero and ''mark as reconciled'' . The USD payments work great so it would be good to be able…

  16. Find and Recode - Contact Groups: I have a need for recoding transactions to add or correct tracking categories based on contact groups. We need to provide summary and filtered reporting based on tracking categories which we cannot efficiently find without the contact group. Please add contact groups to find and recode.

  19. Auto-reconciliation for transactions and invoices/bills - I appreciate that the manual reconciliation is to allow for oversight and management of transactions, but when you have several thousand transactions in a month, reconciling them all is very tedious, especially when 99% of them is just clicking "OK" after checking that the names/references match!

    Auto-reconciliation would be an amazing timesaver, even if it was just for transactions where the references or customer names onn payment and invoice/bill match. Please consider adding this!

    Thanks for sharing your thoughts on auto-reconciliation for invoices and bills. We know that reconciling large volumes of transactions can be time-consuming, even when most just require a quick check, so suggestions like yours are really valuable.

    We’re excited to let you know that this idea is now In Development. Auto-reconciliation is currently in beta with planned rollouts, and the team is working on expanding its capabilities to make reconciling transactions faster and easier, while still giving you oversight and control.

    We’re looking forward to rolling this out more broadly and making auto-reconciliation an even bigger time-saver for many organisations. You can follow our progress and learn more from our blog and support article.

  20. Find and Recode payments from imported statements to change the "Received as" feature to Prepayment or Overpayment.

    I have a lot of older statements to import (this particular payment provider does not offer a feed for importing automatically). These payments are nearly all prepayments, and now I have to manually reconcile them to Prepayments. Automation would be a real time saver!
