Bank Reconciliation - Send Overpayment Query Emails to Customers
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…1 voteHi John, thanks for your detailed suggestion. We understand you’re looking for a way to send an overpayment query email directly from the bank reconciliation screen when a customer payment doesn’t match an invoice.
Having this option within the reconciliation workflow could help make it easier to resolve payment queries without needing to move between different tools.
I’ve updated this idea to Gaining Support so we can continue gathering feedback and examples from the community.

Bank reconciliation - Add attachment to Find & Match (multiple match) transactions
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.142 votes -
Cash coding - Floating headers in cash coding screen
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.

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.

Banking - Account transactions display ability to show if there are attachments
Offer an option to display on an account transactions page whether or not there is a document attached to a transaction. Also an option to display the file name of the document. Both would save time when checking whether or not the related document has been attached or not. Thank you
1 voteThanks for sharing your thoughts with us.
Just to check is this from the Account Transactions screen of the bank account that you're referring to? - Atm, where there is a file attached to the transaction a file icon along with a number is shown in the far right of the grid on the Account Transactions screen.
Appreciate you're asking a little further that you'd like to be able to include the document name, being open considering document names can be quite long and there would also need to be consideration for what shows when there are multiple documents attached this isn't something we have any plans around right now but will gain a sense of the interest your idea builds in the community here.

Bank reconciliation - Increase find and match limit
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…6 votesThanks for sharing your idea with us, Dora. We appreciate you taking the time to let us know what changes matter to you.

Reconciliation - Automatically allocate Subscription Sales into Unearned Income and Earned Income based on timing
Allow front-loaded revenue (such as annual subscriptions or project fees) to be automatically allocated to Unearned Income (i.e. a liability) and then gradually transferred to earned Subscription Sales Revenue.
As a small business owner which sells hundreds of annual subscriptions to our service (different price packages and different start dates for each customer), it would be really handy to know how much of that received money has been 'earned' and how much remains 'Unearned Income'. On Day-1, 100% of it is unearned income (and would need to be refunded if we close as a business), on Day-183, 50% is in…

Revoult - Savings & Funds Bank Feed
Xero already supports a Revoult bank feed for the 'Main' account but when bank a feed established it does not include the 'Savings & Funds' bank feed.
As Revoult offer the 'Savings & Funds' account as part of the standard business account offering, majority of customers would use the 'Savings & Funds' account too as it is interest generating.
Please add a bank feed for the Revoult Savings & Funds to make it a seamless reconciliation process.

Bank Feeds - Add bank feeds for Morgan Stanley investment account
Support Morgan Stanley Client Serv.
Just signed up for Xero today, and now I have to cancel because you don't support my bank. Worth mentioning that MS doesn't provide acceptable export options for their data, so there isn't a clean method for me to transform their data to get it into Xero. I will mention that QBO perfectly integrates with it, so clearly the pipeline has been built by someone.1 voteHi Seth, thanks for sharing this suggestion. It’s clear that bank feeds for Morgan Stanley investment accounts would reduce manual imports and make it easier to keep investment data up to date in Xero.
We'll continue to track the interest around this idea for our Product team's review.

Reporting - Analysis of bank accounts into account codes
What would be really useful would be a report that analyses historic bank account into nominal codes (p&l and balance sheet accounts). Pick start/end dates, choose weekly or monthly reporting, show opening bank balance, what came in and what went out, close bank balance, a choice of including figures gross or separating the VAT out. This does mean that Xero has to following through sales and purchase ledger payments to find out the account codes of the sales invoices and bills that were paid. I've asked Jax to do this and it can't. Come on, how about making your AI…

Chart of Accounts - Assign a Tracking category
Automatically assign a tracking category to a chart of account code, so when costs are billed against the account code, it also automatically assigns those costs to a default tracking category
187 votesHi team, we've been following the conversation for being able to assign a tracking category to each account in the Chart of Accounts, and we appreciate everyone here who's taken time to share their feedback.
We understand manually assigning tracking categories to every line of a transaction is time-consuming and can lead to errors.
While not the direct idea asked here, it may help some to know that you can set a default account and tracking on individual contacts. On the flip side once transactions have been entered Find and recode is another feature that could possibly be useful to some here (however we'd recommend checking in with your advisor and testing in the demo org, before using in your own).
We want to be transparent with you here that though this idea has been carefully reviewed, like other areas of Xero the Chart of Accounts page initially…

Bank Reconciliation - Add a column in the bank statement tab that show the Account the transactions are coded to.
This will assist when coding transactions and/ or reviewing transactions without having to manually click into each individual transaction.
11 votesHi team, while this isn't possible to view from the Bank Statements tab of a bank account you can currently run the Account Transactions report and add a related account column to see both the bank account and the account a transaction from that account is coded to.
With new auto bank reconciliation which is currently in beta you'll be able to get a view of the account that has been auto reconciled is coded to. 🙂

Lock Dates - Option for an auto lock date every month
The ability to have a set lock date EACH month. For example, every month by the 5th the prior month is locked for users other than the advisers. Currently you can manually do this, IF you remember.

Bank Rec | Adjustments - Use Tab key to confirm selection instead of Enter
As Xero started to update existing modules, the "new" modules, took on this idiotic philosophy/logic that users should need to click Enter before clicking Tab.
Previously, I could type an account name (or part of one), use up/down arrows to highlight the account in the list, then click Tab to confirm the selection and move to the next field.
This is (fortunately) still the case in the Create transaction screen.
This functionality was removed from New Invoicing.. but fortunately, it was eventually returned.
This functionality has been removed from Adjustments > Bank Fee function.
It's annoying as ****. Just fix…

Bank rule - Ability to set up overpayments to a supplier
We have standing orders set up for multiple properties for water rates, business rates, electricity and rent all of which are invoiced quarterly/six monthly/annually.
Can we have the ability to create bank rules for supplier overpayments to a contact??

Spend Money - Add an option for Save and continuing editing
Right now "Save" is essentially "Save and Close" -- and then "Save & Add Another" creates a new blank item.
I would like "Save" to stay on the same screen, so I can then use "Copy" from the "Options" menu to enter the same/similar item.
