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…

Bank Reconciliation - Record Spend and Receive money when reconciling
It would be useful to have the ability to record both a 'Spend Money' and a 'Receive Money' transaction when reconciling a single bank line item.
For example, when reconciling a bank deposit (money received), a user should be able to simultaneously record a portion of that money as a 'Spend Money' transaction (e.g., for cash expenses paid out of the deposit) in addition to the main 'Receive Money' entry. This would prevent the need to leave the reconciliation screen, streamlining daily workflows for businesses that handle cash deposits combined with cash expenses.
The attached screenshot illustrates a scenario where…
3 votesThanks for sharing your idea, and letting us know the changes that matter most for you.
In the meantime, this can be solved by adding a negative line item when creating the receive money transaction or by using the adjustment option.

Lock date - Separate lock dates for sales Tax and accounting period
Separation between Sales Tax/VAT/GST lock date and accounting period lock date.
It would save a significant amount of time if VAT periods in Xero could have a separate lock date than the accounting period lock date. For instance, an invoice/bank transaction is still outstanding when filing a VAT return, and the VAT return date could be locked so once this outstanding transaction is completed at a later date, it would automatically appear on the next VAT return. This should be separated from the accounting period lock dates, as you still want to account for that transaction in it's relevant period,…27 votesHi everyone, thanks for all your votes and comments on this idea. Just a quick update to let you know that this request is still open for voting and comments from the community.

Can we please have the ability to export bank statement search results to a csv file?
Every day I wish that was possible!

Bank Rules | Contact details - add purchase defaults on the fly
Thank you for adding these fields when adding a contact on the fly. Can you please also add in the field for the expense acct that this contact should normally be coded to. Right now I have to save the contact, finish my bank rules, then go pull up contacts, find the vendor then go to the bottom and give it the gl number.
1 voteGreat to hear your flow of work in your idea here, Emelie - Can see how being able to add this detail on the fly when creating your bank rules could save you time.
This isn't something we have planned just yet but will get a gauge of interest from your idea and be sure to share if there are any updates for this, here.

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.
We’ll keep an eye on the support it receives and share any updates here as things progress.

Bank Statement Tab Search – Show Account Transactions in Results
I’d like to suggest a small but valuable feature update:
When we search for a bank memo, description, or reference in bank transactions or account transactions (e.g., “UberBV”), Xero does return the transactions, but the categorized account (account head) is not visible in the search results.
In MYOB, when performing the same search, the results also show the categorized account, which helps identify how transactions were coded in the past. This saves time and ensures consistency during reconciliations.
Feature Request:
Please consider updating Xero so that when searching transactions (by memo, description, or reference), the categorized account column also displays…
6 votesHi Abrar, thanks for the thoughtful suggestion and the screenshots showing the account code used when reconciling the bank statement lines. We’ve shared your feedback with the team so they can consider this in future improvements. In the meantime, it’d be great to hear from others who’d benefit—please add your vote and any specific scenarios where this would save time in your workflow. In the meantime as a short-term workaround, run the Account Transactions report for the Bank account and add the Related account column to see where each transaction was coded ✨

Bank Feeds - Suggestion for Proactive User Notification of Bank Feed Disruptions
Would be great if users could be directly notified if there is a bank feed disruption or issue for their specific bank accounts.

Bank Feed - Update wording when selecting a bank account
When adding a new bank account the client needs to tick 'don't select' on all the other accounts which can be unsettling if these accounts already have bank feeds. There must be better wording for this, or remove the need to tick 'don't select'.
2 votesHi Saara, we can see how updates to the labels or instructions in the bank feed connection flow could help make setup clearer and reduce the chance of selecting the wrong account.
We'll continue tracking interest and share the feedback with our product teams.

Xero Accounting App - Edit reconciled account transactions
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.

Homepage - One click bank refresh
On the dashboard and/or Accounting drop-down? I find that I have to manually refresh my Chase accounts daily to get up to date.
13 votes✨ Thanks for the suggestion – we love hearing how we could make bank feeds easier to manage.
Right now we’re not planning a single “refresh all bank feeds” button in the near future. A few reasons why:
- Banks control timing: Many feeds update on a schedule set by the bank or provider, so a global refresh wouldn’t guarantee instant data across all accounts.
- Reliability & limits: Triggering lots of refreshes at once can hit provider limits and make refreshes fail more often, which is a worse experience overall.
- Security & MFA: Some feeds require multi‑factor authentication or a specific user to refresh, which can’t safely be handled by a single bulk action.
For now we’re focusing on keeping per‑account refresh reliable and clear in the new homepage banking widget, and we’ll keep tracking interest in bulk refresh for future planning.

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.

Bank Feed - HSBC more frequent updates than every 24 hours
HSBC Business bank feed that updates more frequently than 24 hours in arrears. The fact that it takes more than a day for a customer payment to appear in Xero makes it hard to have effective account management.
3 votesHi Nikki — thanks for sharing this and explaining how more frequent updates would help your account management. I can see that you have raised this previously with Xero Support and as you know there is a delay of 24 hours for the UK HSBC bank feed to reduce duplicates 😣. We can assure you that we’ll keep monitoring this and will update the thread as further improvements become available. Thanks again for raising it and helping us track demand.

Bank Reconciliation - Automatic coding of transfers between bank accounts
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.23 votes -
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.

Invoicing - EIS integration in The Philippines
Hopefully someone at Xero reads this.
The Philippines is a market that Xero should really focus on.
The BIR is now introducing the EIS program which leans perfectly to Xero integration, not a middle man. Companies are running everywhere to Netsuite and SAP as Xero aren't across what is happening.
Whilst currently limited to larger entities the roadmaps seem to indicate that the business size for compliance will get smaller over time.
If XERO can organise the bank feeds from the top banks and integrate with BIR, your business in The Philippines will grow much much larger - https://eis-cert.bir.gov.ph/#/main

Bank | Account transactions - show source type e.g Invoice / Bill
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
1 voteAppreciate 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.

Expenses - Claims for International freight
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.
1 voteHi 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?

Spend Money - Prefill last entered transaction
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.
2 votesThanks 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?

Overpayment - Ability to change to Credit Note
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…
