Xero Support - Have an inbound phone number
HAVE A PHONE LINE!
Xero claims "24/7 support" - This is a fraudulent claim.
Denying your clients a number to call is not only repugnant customer service, it is spitting in the face of people who pay for your product.
Whoever had the idea to save money by not having a number to call should be let go, uncerimoniously
Very very bad customer service
14 votesHi team, thanks for sharing this feedback. We understand that sometimes speaking with someone directly is the quickest way to work through an issue, especially when you need help with something urgent or complex.
At this stage, an inbound phone number isn’t part of our current support model. Our focus is on making sure customers are connected with the right team member who has the right context to help, rather than spending time waiting in a queue.
For situations where a call is the best option, we offer a callback service so our team can connect with you at a suitable time and be prepared to assist.
We appreciate you sharing your thoughts. Feedback like this helps us understand what matters most to customers and where we can continue improving the support experience.

XPH | Jobs - Notify Job Manager when a job has been assigned
Please update Notification Settings to allow "Job Managers" to be notified when they have been assigned to a job. Currently, only 'Staff' are able to be notified.
8 votesThanks for starting this conversation, Mihir..
We can see how automatic notifications when a job is assigned could help Job Managers stay on top of new work and reduce the need to manually check their job lists.
I've updated the status of this idea to Gaining Support. If this is a feature you'd like to see, please keep voting and share how notifications would fit into your team's workflow.

Xero Subscription Invoices - Make available within Subscription & Billing tab
Have invoices from Xero in a more logical place, like under subscription and billing. The way it is now isn't logical and always takes more time. It would also help with efficiency if the Xero invoice was attached as a PDF to the email saying you've been billed or available via the Xero app.
This seems like such a simple fix from Accounting software.
5 votesAppreciate your feedback here, Jessica. While subscription invoices are available to view from the Billing accounts tab under Subscription & billing it sounds like you're wanting the view option to be more prominent and directly available from Subscription and billing. We'll get a better sense of the interest for this from the community here.
We have an existing idea around being able to attach a PDF of the invoice to the email you receive and I've added your vote for this so we can keep you updated here.

Users - Automated email notifications for inactive or dormant user logins
Please add the ability for admins to receive an email notification when a user hasn't logged into an organisation for a configurable period (e.g. 3, 6, or 12 months). This should cover all users with access, including our own staff, as well as any accountants or bookkeepers invited into our organisation.
Access often persists long after someone has left our organisation or after an accountant/bookkeeper relationship has ended, and there's currently no easy way to spot this. An automated alert for dormant accounts would let admins proactively review and remove stale access, reducing security risk from old, unmonitored logins (e.g.…
2 votesAppreciate you bringing this to the community, Dennis. We understand the request for a way to identify dormant user accounts through automated alerts, rather than relying on manual checks.

Navigation - Add direct link to Xero Product Ideas on main navigation bar
place "Product Ideas" on your main page. if i could have my customers suggest how to imporve my business right at the time they are getting frustrated I would be elated as this would give me direct access to my customers and what they are experiencing as they interact with my business. this seem like an absolute no brainer.
2 votesThanks for sharing this suggestion. We understand the request to add a direct link to Xero Product Ideas in the main navigation, so users can share feedback without needing to navigate through Xero Central.
I’ve updated the status to Gaining Support so we can continue tracking community interest. If this could make it easier to share ideas, add your vote and let us know how you'd like the link to work.

Navigation - Ensure Save or Update button is at the same area for all transactions
In the different Sales and Purchases entry and edit areas in Xero the save or update buttons are in different places, one has it at the top of the screen and the other at the bottom. This is really annoying and would be way more efficient if they were both the same. Clearly two different people set them up or the same person was on a different mood when they created the two. I get this, I'm inconsistent all the time, its just super annoying in a major software package!
3 votesThanks for sharing this idea. We can understand how having the Save and Update buttons in a consistent location across transaction pages could make moving between different workflows feel more intuitive.
We've updated the status to Gaining Support so we can continue tracking community interest and sharing your feedback with the product team as they consider future improvements to the experience.

JAX - Ability to opt out
Grandfathering JAX to every user with a new ToS is garbage, please allow a complete opt out of the feature.
4 votesHi Timothy, while we appreciate your feedback I want to be upfront that we don't have any plans to add a complete opt out option.
JAX has become a core part of how Xero works, which is why we've moved it to always-on. That said, JAX isn't active until you open it and move through the initial consent step, so it won't do anything without you initiating it.
You won’t be able to turn JAX off for the whole organisation, but you don’t have to use it:
- If you don’t want to use JAX, simply don’t open it
- If you don’t want certain people to use JAX, you can manage their Xero roles and permissions so they can’t see sensitive data

Security - Subscriber ability to log users out
We would like the option to kick out all logged in users in case of intrusion.
Also would like IP whitelisting.2 votesThank you for taking the time to share this idea with us — we really appreciate you helping us identify ways to improve security in Xero. 🔐
This is now open for votes and comments from the community. The feedback and support received here help us understand how valuable this functionality would be for other customers. In the meantime, feel free to share the idea with colleagues who would also like to see this functionality so they can add their support too.

timed log out
The automatic, timed log-out leaves data visible on screen for a few seconds before reverting to a log-in screen. This may be browser specific (I tend to use Chrome) but there is a small security or privacy risk when this happens if whoever sees it isn't meant to. And once you know it happens, you can plan for it. I haven't tried it yet, but a screengrab seems a simple approach. I'm not clear on the mechanism to fix this, however, but I thought it would be a good, if trivial, improvement.
4 votesHi Robert, appreciate you raising another request to share feedback on your original idea. I've merged these together and re-opened the initial idea so we can continue to build interest through this.
Just to note, if your idea is moved to Feedback comments and voting are closed however if you have additional feedback you can rate and respond to the update to share additional information and this will be reviewed by out community manager to take action if needed.
From your detail here it sounds like you'd like any information on the screen blanked out for privacy when you're timed out - Would that be correct?
Thanks again for engaging with us through these forums.

JAX - Ability for JAX window to pop out
Create a button on Jax that allows the dialog box to "Pop Out" or detach from Xero. It makes no sense that I have to copy directions from Jax to paste into Word so I can follow the often multi-step instructions that cannot be done while Jax is active.
3 votesHi Allen, thanks for sharing your idea, and letting us know the changes that matter most for you.
We've reviewed your idea and now it's up to the community to get behind and support it. Make sure you share your idea with any colleagues that this could benefit so they can add their vote too!

Email Audit Notification - When Xero Support Is Added to XPM
When Xero Support is added to a Xero Practice Manager tenant, Xero should automatically send an email notification to the tenant’s registered email address.
This would provide a clear audit trail and help firms track when staff members grant Xero Support access to the tenant.
When Xero Support is added to an XPM tenant, Xero should automatically send an email to the tenant’s registered email address.
The email should include:
The date and time Xero Support was added
The user who added Xero Support
A short explanation of what access was granted
A reminder to remove Xero Support when access…2 votesThanks for sharing this idea. We understand you would value the of receiving a clear notification when Xero Support has been granted access, including what the access is for and how long it will remain active.
We’re moving this idea to Gaining Support so other customers can vote and share their feedback.

Xero subscription: SA Payment Offerings Bank Transfer or Direct Debit
Most of my companies do not have credit or debit cards, now I need to correct the Xero account with internal invoicing between the companies to recoup the costs and and claim the VAT in the correct company. Easy fix is to allow for debit orders or EFT payment. If accounts are not paid up to date, just block the use of the company.
2 votesThanks for taking the time to share your feedback.
We can understand why paying by card for subscriptions does not suit everyone.
Xero does offer differing payment methods across regions.
Depending on the region, these include card payments as well as direct debit options such as BECS in Australia and New Zealand, BACS in the United Kingdom, ACH/eCheck in the United States, and SEPA in Europe.
In South Africa, the current subscription payment method is Visa or Mastercard credit or debit card payments.
We'll get a broader sense of interest from other SA users on offering direct debit or bank transfer here.

Better document organization
Reduced manual effort
Enhanced user experienceFor businesses processing high volumes of invoices, this small enhancement would deliver significant time savings and create a more efficient workflow.

Add ZTL002 cash account to Payment method drop downs
Add the ZTL002 cash account, generated during Zettle integration, to the Payment method drop-downs.
As that is the account all cash deposits are registered under, it makes sense to ease using it during automated transaction generation from file downloads.
Having to manually create a new transaction for all cash payments is very tedious, but allows use of the ZTL cash account. So why not allow it during the automated process?1 voteThanks for submitting your idea on Xero Product Ideas. We appreciate you taking time to let us know how we could improve Xero for you.

Remove JAX for title bar
I would like to be able to remove JAX from the title bar of xero. It is almost useless and more often than not gives information that is false. I don't ever see it coming out of "BETA". Please let me remove it. Since it is polluting my title bar it is a hindrance to my experience

MFA
At Login the MFA is ok, but your function of Trust this device is not working at all. So it would be better to remove it if there is no way to skip it. Also once you get to the Authenticator code, make the curser go into the text box by default. It is an annoying extra click into that box that really is not necessary.

Allow different default sender/reply-to email addresses for invoices and quotes
Xero should allow users to set different default sender/reply-to email address depending on the document type.
For example, it would be easier if I had:
Quotes - sales/estimating email address
Invoices - accounts/finance email address.At the moment users have to manually change the email address when sending different document types.
This would be particularly useful for businesses where the sales/estimating team and accounts team use different email addresses.

24/7 support
How do you actually get someone to "support" from Xero on the "24/7" chatline. I have been hanging for over an hour requesting to chat to a human? I DO NOT get any ligitimate support from your AI bot who keeps giving me the same articles that don't work.

Have actually useful links to Xero Central from the chatbot and the help articles
I have just spent a frustrating amount of time going round in circles with the chat bot. I said that yes I would like to add a product idea and it gave me a link to a help page which tells you how to search for a product idea and how to submit one, but it didn't give me a link to the actual page where I can do that (this page it turns out!). I specifically asked for a link and it told me it was unable to do so. Then I asked how to navigate there and it…

Xero Chat - Maintain a log of time stamp of chat
When speaking to Xero support on a chat can Xero show the date, time of each part of the chat please like most other providers do each time each party of the chat types something in. It's really handy to refer back to.
5 votesThanks team, we appreciate wanting more visibility of the timestamps for chat to help when referencing and this is something we have intentions of developing but don't have timeframes of just yet.
I'll round back to confirm once this work gets picked up.
