Batch Payment - New Bills/payee's highlighted in Batch Payment Summaries
Accounts Payable - New Bills/payee highlighted in batch payment summary
I review the batch payment summaries for our organization after they have been approved by managers but I would like some further controls - it would be great if there was some indication on the batch payment summary that this was a first time bill payee and/or if Xero could check for duplicated bank account numbers in the batch payment summaries.
6 votesHi Dionne, we’ve reviewed this idea and it’s now in the Gaining support stage. We understand how highlighting new payees or duplicates in batch payment summaries could help make reviewing batch payments quicker and easier.
This idea is open for more votes and comments from the community, so if this sounds useful to you, feel free to add your support or share your thoughts.
Thanks for being part of the conversation!

Batch payment - Warning if contact has not be paid in the last year
It would be great to have a warning pop up when creating a batch payment if a supplier has not been paid in ie 1 year. Recently a Supplier was paid however in the 2 years since they were first added into Xero (and no bills paid since) the business was sold and the bank account changed. Additionally if Hubdoc could read bank accounts and a warning pop up if they differ from that in Xero.
5 votesThanks for letting us know that you would like to see a warning when paying suppliers that haven't been paid for over a year.
We've reviewed your idea and now it's up to the community to get behind and support it. Along with votes, other members can now comment to share additional detail about how your idea could improve their experience with Xero.
A second idea has been created from this one for the suggestion of adding a warning within Hubdoc if a different bank account number is entered in Xero. You can view this here - Hubdoc - Warning if supplier bank account in Xero is different

Sales | Batch Deposit in Foreign Currency
Xero currently lacks the capability to bulk pay multi-currency invoices. This creates a significant bottleneck for our clients with a default currency of USD who process hundreds of invoices in EUR each month. While it is possible to import invoices in EUR in bulk, marking each invoice as paid individually is extremely time-consuming and inefficient. Please consider implementing a feature that allows users to bulk pay invoices in the same foreign currency. This enhancement would streamline the workflow for businesses handling large volumes of international transactions, saving time and reducing manual effort.

Bill Payments | Crezco - buy batches of bill payment fees
The highest Xero subscription allows you to make 10 bill payments through Crezco and then you pay a fee per bill. This is a pain, as I now have to approve each 24p fee.
Please can I buy Crezco payments upfront?4 votesHi everyone, we’ve seen some good chatter around buying Crezco bill payment fees in batches. For those handling a high volume of transactions, being able to buy fees in bulk would make this process quicker and smoother.
At the moment, Xero doesn’t support batch purchases for bill payment fees, but this idea is now in Gaining Support.
If this sounds like something that would help your workflow, please add your vote or share your thoughts. The more feedback we get, the better we can show the product team how important this is.
We’ll keep you updated here as we learn more.

Batch Payments - Export file in a Santander-compatible format
The repsonse to my support case was to be told to post the bug here... seems a weird request, but sure...
"The best way to get our product team to consider this would be to create a new product Idea on this, which is submitted to our product team who then go ahead and make changed based in priority."The santander batch file does not follow the santander format. In the past Santander used to accept the file anyway but they have now started rejecting it.

Batch payments - Option to export Batch Payment Summary report to .CSV file.
Currently there is the only one option to export Batch Payment Summary report to PDF format.
That report is coming with the vendors listed randomly without any order.
Usually I forward that report to the owner along with 'aba' file for payment processing, and the report with vendors listed in alphabetical order will be very helpful.
Exporting the report to Excel will solve the sorting problem.
Thank you very much,

4 votesHi Irina, thank you for this excellent suggestion.
We can see how being able to export the Batch Payment Summary report to a .CSV file would make it much easier to sort and manage before sending it on for payment processing.
We're grateful for your engagement and letting us know the changes that matter to you. We've reviewed your idea and now it can gain support from other community members.

Remittance Advice - View emails sent for batch payments
When looking at the notes of a batch payment, it says "remittance advice emails were sent to 16 suppliers" - but I can't see anywhere that will tell me which 16 suppliers & which email addresses they were sent to. It would be great if I could see that.

Batch Deposit - Search and select on Awaiting Payment screen
Currently when selecting invoices to include in a batch deposit you can only select what's on the current screen, when you click to the next screen you lose the selections you made on the previous screen. I have thousands of invoices awaiting payment, even with the max display amount of 200, it's 30+ screens to scroll through. I have to create multiple batch deposits in order to capture everything that's being taken to the bank that day. Please add a search field that will save and allow multiple invoices to be included in batch deposits.

automate remittance advices for xero pay
Automation of remittance advices being sent once payment batch is approved with Xero pay. Currently they are sent individually once the batch is approved and shows up on the bank account transactions list. It would be great to be able to send them out as a batch once the batch payment is approved. Also would be good if you could deselect any that you don't need to send out should that be the case.

Direct Bill Payments - Review previous payment runs
Whilst being able to set-up a payment run directly within Xero is great and saves time, it can be tedious and difficult when trying to reconcile it on the bank.
There are two things Xero should add:
There is seemingly no way in the bills screen to review previous payment runs. Something that at least would make it easier to check back at what was included in that payment.
It should also put all payments from one payment run as one batch payment in the bank rec screen. Otherwise no time at all is saved in reconciliation as you still…

Remittance Advice - Auto-untick suppliers with no email address
When sending remittances from batch payments, all suppliers are automatically ticked whether they have an email address or not, but you cannot send any remittances to any suppliers if even one of the ticked ones is missing an email. This is a laborious process to go and untick the suppliers with no email addresses in order to send the rest.
It would be great if suppliers with no email address listed are either:
1) already unticked, so you have to tick it to add an email and send the remittance to that supplier, but the suppliers with emails will work…4 votesThanks for sharing your idea in the forums here, Natascha. Can see how if you have a big batch this could save you time from having to scroll through and uncheck the suppliers that don't have an email.
While this isn't something we have immediate plans of we'll continue to get a sense of the interest from your idea here.
We have a big focus on enhancing and expanding our billing payment solutions across Xero and regions so we'll let you know if there are any plans that'd help in your idea here.

Bills - Batch payment report account number and sort code
When processing a batch payment report on Xero and exporting to excel to upload to the bank, separate the Account number and sort code - it currently processing them as one number omitting any zero's and this creates an incorrect bank account number, so makes the report useless.

Check remittance advice from contact record
Ability to send or check remittances from individual contact page
When a supplier requests a copy remittance it would be easier to be able to go into their contact page and check/send a remittance from there instead of having to look at the batch remittance and send from there.7 votes -
Checks - Increase unique cheque/check number limit from 6 characters
When writing a cheque, I am limited to a 6-digit unique cheque number. With QUickBooks I used the date as the checknumber. For example May 31 2025 would be 20250531, then I append a letter to it as 20250531a. With making payment on web sites and then entering checks into Xero this still allows things to sort properly. Being limited to 6 numbers makes it harder to keep track of things.
2 votesHi Stanley, thanks for sharing your idea and explaining your specific workflow for tracking payments. It's really helpful to understand how you use cheque numbers to keep things organised.
We've reviewed your suggestion to increase the character limit for cheque numbers, and it’s now ready to gain support from other community members.
Along with votes, others can now comment to share additional detail about how a more flexible cheque number field could improve their own record-keeping with Xero.

Bills - Automatically send a remittance after payment

Multicurrency - Cheque/Check Log
We need the ability to issue a cheque and track cheque numbers in currency that is not the home currency. Example CAD is home currency. We have a USD bank account and issue cheques on that USD account but we are unable to confirm the cheques have been issued in sequence as there is no log. We are also unable to issue a cheque from that account.

Batch payments - Print Receipts
The ability to print receipts for batch payments is desperately needed.
Currently there is no way to print a receipt for batch payments. There is only the ability to email receipts or print deposit summary. Deposit summaries do not contain the level of detail that a receipt does.
Currently, to print receipts for payments recorded in a batch deposits you have to email the receipt to yourself first. The problem with this is, when you enter your email address in the blank field it then automatically updates the customers contact details with your email address, so you have to then…
7 votesThanks for your idea here, Laurie. Appreciate the detail in your post and why you'd like to see this.
Its not something we have direct plans for atm, but we'll continue to track the interest here and share any updates.
While not the ideal solution, for the time being to avoid updating your contacts record when you click send receipt from a batch payment, you could uncheck the recipients but have the option to 'Send me a copy' checked.

JAX - Prompts for Bills to Pay
I would like to be able to use JAX prompts to search bills to pay or to ask general questions about previously paid bills.
For example:
- Show me all the bills paid to supplier X before/after invoice date [insert date]
- Show me all the bills for this amount [insert amount]
- Find all the bills that were created with Tax Inclusive (or Tax Exclusive or No Tax).
- Start a new bill for supplier [insert supplier name] with the following item codes [insert list of item codes]
Currently, JAX doesn't seem to have any knowledge about bills.
It also seems to assume…
