Bills - Option to permanently dismiss Pay bills online pop-up message
Whenever I make a manual payment to a supplier Purchases/Bill I keep getting an annoying pop-up saying "Pay bills online directly from Xero". Bills are not paid online, payments are processed manually. Please remove this annoying pop-up.
There needs to be a "do not ask me again" box.
I'm told by AI help that I can continue to process manual payments as usual - the pop-up shouldn't prevent me from completing the transactions. This is where the problem lies - I make payments nearly every day and some suppliers have more than 1 invoice to pay so have to select…49 votesHi everyone, thanks again for all the feedback we’ve received about this flow here. Our team has taken this on board.
It’s worth highlighting that the pop up window that shows for every payment is part of the payment flow to determine how you’d like to process the payment - You can choose to pay by online bill payments or manual payment. We want to be upfront that we don’t have any plans to permanently remove this flow.
However, based on feedback the team has added a selection to the modal in the screenshot here ”‘Don’t show again” to return to the original experience when it's possible to continue with manual batch domestic payments.
If you check this option you’ll be taken back through the older payments flow the next time you go to make a payment of this kind.
Please note, if you simply click the ‘X’ button in…

Multicurrency- Batch payments of Foreign Currency Bills.
Batch payments of Foreign Currency Bills.
Dear Xero,
Please consider the feature of being able to batch up foreign currency Bills. We often pay multiple invoices in one go, having to reconcile and mark as paid 10 invoices is extremely time consuming.568 votesHi team, appreciate wanting an update - I'm pleased to share the beta went well and we've now launched international bill payments for our UK customers, making it easier to pay overseas suppliers.
Using open banking, UK businesses can now securely send money to 180+ countries including Europe (EUR), America (USD) and Australia (AUD). So you don't have to juggle multiple platforms or hidden fees. Whether you're paying a single bill or multiple bills at once, you can authorise payments prepared by your team and easily track which suppliers have been paid.
We’re committed to new ways to expand our bill payments feature for small businesses and their advisors in other regions by leveraging new technologies, where available. I'll keep you updated of any further developments for this, here.

Contacts - Supplier Statement "Detailed Ledger" (Running Balance Statement)
We need a new report for suppliers that functions as a true detailed ledger with a running balance.
The Problem: When we need to reconcile an account with a supplier, there is no single, clean report that shows a simple chronological history of all bills and payments. We can run a "Supplier Transaction Report," but it's often not in a simple, statement-style format that's easy to read or send to the supplier.
We need the Accounts Payable equivalent of the "Detailed Ledger" statement that is also needed for customers.
The Request (Solution): Please create a new report, "Supplier Detailed Ledger,"…
21 votesHi Jasmine, thanks for sharing this idea with us. We can see why this would be helpful for some users. Currently, Xero offers the Supplier bill activity report and the contacts Activity statement. While this information is available on the account transaction report,it is not available in a Statement format. We've moved this idea to Gaining support so that other users who want this idea implemented can vote for it as well. You may share this idea with your colleagues to get more traction!

Email Template | Remittance - Allow Reference placeholder.
invoice email template options for placeholders allow for the 'reference' placeholder to be inserted.
This needs to be available to be inserted into the remittance email template.
As the placeholder exists, can it be allowed to the dropdown for remittance?

Please allow us to update the batch payment export file for FNB in South Africa. The current export file does not have all the fields needed by the bank.

Batch Payment - Increase limit
Batch Payments - Increase max items per page to 500. We are a large company and often have 200+ bills to pay at one time, meaning we need to create two batches for the one payment run.
5 votesHi everyone, thanks so much for taking the time to share this idea and explain the impact it’s having on your payment runs.
We can absolutely see how splitting one payment run into multiple batches adds extra steps and complexity to the process, especially for organisations managing a high volume of bills.
Because of the support and detail we’re seeing on this idea, we’re moving it to Gaining Support. This helps us better understand how many customers are affected and the different ways this limit is impacting their workflow.
Please keep the feedback coming — if you can, add a comment with a bit more detail about how many bills you’re typically paying in a batch and how this affects your process. That context is really helpful for our team.
Thanks again for raising it and for helping us build a better experience 💙.

Batch Payment - Option to add another when creating
Navigation. Wouldn't it make life easier when paying bills if you could create a batch and then go directly back to the Purchases Overview to create the next one. At the moment it's Create a Batch Payment then > Purchases > Bills. Repeat the process.
19 votesThanks for your idea, Karen. Understand how this would improve efficiency if you regularly create multiple batches in your workflow. We'll get a sense of the wider community interest in this from your idea here.

Proforma Bill
Option to raise a supplier bill as a proforma bill
3 votesHi Lucy, thanks for sharing in the product ideas forum here. It'd be great to get more understanding of the needs for recording a bill as proforma in Xero.
Is there anyway entering the information as a Draft bill or even a purchase order could accommodate your needs here?

Bills - Enable direct, integrated bill payments through Wise from the Xero
Feature Request: Pay with Wise for Non-UK Companies
We would like to request that Xero extend the “Pay with Wise” / Direct Bill Pay functionality to non-UK companies as well.
Currently, businesses outside the UK need to initiate payments separately in Wise and then sync them back to Xero. Enabling direct Wise bill payments within Xero for non-UK entities would significantly improve efficiency, streamline AP processes, and reduce manual work for global businesses using Xero.
Please consider making this feature available for non-UK Xero organisations.
3 votesHi Anikam, thanks for taking the time to suggest this.
Being able to pay bills directly through Wise from within Xero could help streamline international payment workflows and reduce the need to switch between platforms.
I've updated the status of this idea to Gaining Support. If this is a feature you'd like to see, please continue to vote and share how this capability would fit into your workflow. Your feedback helps us better understand the value this integration could provide.

Contacts - Option to add supplier BPAY details
Some suppliers only offer BPAY details to pay their invoices, currently Xero only gives the option to add bank account details to the contact card.
4 votesHi everyone, thanks for sharing and supporting this idea.
We can see how being able to add supplier BPAY details directly to a contact would be helpful, especially when a supplier only accepts BPAY. Right now, Xero only supports bank account details on the contact, so BPAY details like biller code and reference number aren’t captured in a dedicated way.
We’re moving this idea to Gaining Support so we can better understand how many customers this impacts and the different ways BPAY is being used. If this would help your workflow, please add your vote and share a comment with a bit more detail about how you currently manage these payments.
Thanks again for raising this — we’ll keep you updated here as we learn more.

Bills - Improve auto creation from files
Improve xero invoice (accounts payable) scaning function so that it is as good as Dext, thereby saving money for Xero customers (or maybe Xero just buys the Dext app in makes it the default scanning tool)
9 votesAppreciate your feedback, Harpal and I want to assure you we're committed to improving this experience. We have recently released our new Smart Document Capture tool in Xero Files to the UK and will be releasing it to the rest of world very soon. I'll round back to confirm once it's live to everyone.

add remittance advices and partial payments to online payments
Paying bills online. First, THANK YOU for making ACH included in monthly fee. Awesome. I would like you to consider two enhancements: (1) the ability to send a single remittance advice for batched online payments right from Xero (like what is available in regular batch payments). My current workaround is to pull a payments report for multiple invoices paid together and manually email it. (2) the ability to make a partial payment on an invoice. Right now it's all or nothing at all.
2 votesThanks for submitting your idea on Xero Product Ideas. We appreciate you taking time to let us know how we could improve Xero for you.

Batch Payments - Ability to add bills to an existing batch
Add a "add Bill" button to enable you to add a bill after the batch has been created without cancelling the batch and redoing.
18 votesHi christine, is this a common situation you find yourself or business running into? It'd be good to understand more detail if there are common circumstances that lead you to needing to edit a batch payment after it's been created.
For the time being we'll start to feel out the interest in this from community. Thanks!

Export File - Update ISO 20022 payment file formats by November 2026
When Xero will consider the new changes for HSBC BACS files and will it make it possible to generate the new standard payment file in Xero directly without using bridged software? HSBC set up a deadline in November 2026 for ISO 20022. Thanks
3 votesHey Illiana, thanks for brining this to us, and for explaining the upcoming HSBC changes so clearly.
We’ve now moved your idea to Gaining Support so other customers can add their votes and comments. That support helps our product team better understand how many customers this change would help and the impact it’s having.
Thanks again for sharing this with us and helping us improve Xero.

Batch Payments - Automate Batch loading to Commbiz platform
Currently we create batch payments and then manually upload the ABA file to CommBiz however this takes extra time and could be a control risk. Could you please look at being able to directly upload batch files from Xero to the CommBiz platform without needing the ABA file.
Thanks
4 votesHi Jessica, thanks for sharing your idea here. Batch payments are designed to be downloaded and uploaded without the need for any changes to be made outside of Xero. We'd be keen to get a bit more understanding of the control risk you're referring to. 😃
However, automation of batch payments is a great idea in itself so we've opened this up to the community to gain more support. We'll monitor this space in the meantime and provide any feedback on any changes or updates.

Increase limit on bills transaction values
Currently, Xero is unable to generate a payment file when the bills amount are too large. While Support has advised that there isn't a specific limit on the number or value of bills, we had issue when we tried to batch payments from the bills that the system considered 'too large'. This means that we need to make these payments manually and when there are a large number of high-value bills, this significantly reduces processing efficiency and increases the administrative workload.

Include an "approved by" column in the bills awaiting payment screen. This assists high-level review of bills before payment is made
Include an "approved by" column in the bills awaiting payment screen. This assists high-level review of bills before payment is made and might highlight any one-off or non-standard payments that require additional inspection before payment is made.

Remittance advice - Ability to show foreign currency
As a business we deal in several currency so the ability to be able to send a remittance advice to a supplier that has been paid in a foreign currency similar to how this is done for suppliers in GBP would be a great help to ensure there are no queries with payments to suppliers paid in foreign currency
