Hi team! We've been following the conversation here and appreciate you taking the time to explain the need for this feature.
We understand you’re looking for a way to change the default setting for the ‘Show journal on cash basis reports’ checkbox in manual journals, so that it’s unticked, and that having this box ticked by default can create inaccurate cash basis reports, which is particularly challenging when you’re correcting entries or dealing with a high volume of journals.
We may look into this with a finer lens further down the line, but want to share that there's no immediate works planned to enable changing the default for whether a journal is Cash basis.
As many of you have noted, right now you'll need to manually untick the box for each journal entry.
If any change is planned for this we'll be sure to share with you all, here.

Hi everyone, thanks for sharing your feedback on this idea. We appreciate you explaining how important more control over lock dates is for protecting your data integrity and supporting your workflows.
As part of our wider review of roles and permissions across Xero, we’re pleased to let you know that this is a feature that we’re exploring controls in and reviewing the viability of. We'll keep you updated here as our plans shape up further.

Hi everyone, thanks for your feedback here. It’s great to see so much engagement on this idea, and we appreciate you taking the time to share your thoughts with us.
We understand you’re looking for the ability to create your own report code structures within Xero that'd allow for more detailed and flexible reporting, helping to automate processes and provide clearer insights for your clients.
As noted by others in the idea, you can currently leverage the existing report code mapping functionality. While it doesn't allow for entirely new report codes, you can map multiple chart of account codes to the same report codes to group them for reporting.
To do this in bulk, you can also export your chart of accounts, apply the mapping in a CSV, and then re-import it.
We see the value in providing more customisation in reporting. Right now we have some more codes…

Thanks for your images showing what you're meaning here, Zoe. Makes it super clear for others and our product teams.
Appreciate it's not the ideal solution but good to hear you're aware of how you can group and rename an account through the Financial reports at present. We'll keep an eye on the interest in this, here.

Would be good to have the ability to add a reporting name for Bank chart of accounts codes in the same way that they work for every other type of code. This would allow the account name to that shows on the dashboard to make sense to the business owners but the formatting can still be changed for financial reporting.

Hello everyone, we want to let you know that we’ve recently released the ability to convert PDF bank statements into pre-formatted CSV files in Xero (Read more on our blog for more information).
Currently, this feature is only available in the US and Canada. We know this tool will also be valuable to other regions and we'll be sure to update you with any new information about it becoming available globally.
For now, we’ll move the status of this idea to ‘Under review’. So keep voting and give us your input on how this feature can benefit your workflow!

Thanks for sharing your thoughts on how we can improve Xero for you. While our team are considering improvements to Report Templates, currently there are no direct plans for changing the way Report Template fields are updated. We'll continue to keep an eye on the interest of this here, and share if there's any change to this.

Hi everyone, thanks for the engagement in this idea overtime. Being transparent, we don't have any plans for enabling the ability to work across multiple organisations at a time.
Allowing multiple organisations to be open in one browser session creates risk of entering data for one organisation in another that'd create a permanent audit trail in the wrong place.
However, as shared by some here there are workarounds;
- You can use separate web browsers or incognito windows for each organisation, or
- Create multiple profiles within a browser like Chrome.
Both these options provide safer process for accessing different organisations at once.
If we make any plans to revisit this in the future we'll update this idea to share with you all here.

Thanks for your passion and the detailed feedback on this idea, community. We can see how much time is spent manually consolidating tracking category budgets, and why having this roll-up automatically would make a big difference.
As noted by others in the thread, one option for now is to use a third-party app from the Xero App Store. Some in the community have mentioned tools like Spotlight Reporting or Budget Consolidator are great for this, and it’s a good way to get the insights you’re after.
While we understand the value this feature would add, it isn't on our immediate roadmap to build right now. We know that's not the news you're hoping for, but we want to be transparent about what's in our current focus - You can get a view of some of the changes coming in the next quarter through our website, The Long and Short of…

Hey team, thanks for all your input on partial asset disposal.
We understand that manually managing parts of an asset can be time-consuming. While we don't have plans at this time to develop a built-in feature, your feedback's really helpful in showing us where things could improve.
For now, manual methods to calculate depreciation and record journal entries to keep things accurate would be the best option.
However, this is a feature that we'd like to revisit as we plan our future roadmaps, and will be happy to share if there is any traction around this. Please keep sharing this idea with any colleagues you feel could benefit from this too.

Hi community, we thank you for your feedback on the value of being able to flag a Sales invoice as in dispute. We know a clear way to mark these invoices would be helpful.
Similarly to our update for Supplier invoices there are a few options you may want to consider to currently highlight Sales invoices in this situation;
- Add a note to the invoice to serve as a clear internal reminder of the dispute.
- Utilise tracking categories: Creating a specific tracking category like "Disputed Invoices" can help you filter and report on these items.
- Update the reference to add a notation such as [reference number] - 'In dispute'
While we know these aren't perfect solutions, we hope these may help some in the conversation right now.
We appreciate your enthusiasm for this feature, and we want to be transparent about where it stands, and this is an idea that…

Hi everyone, it’s great to hear the use our customers find in Contact groups on Xero. We can totally get wanting to enhance the use of contacts and bulk send statements to all members of a group at once.
In lieu of this functionality right now, you could manually filter and select contacts from your list before sending statements.
With sights set on helping our customers collect payments faster, we have a team that is looking at work in the reminders and statements space and sending to contact groups is being explored as part of this. For the time being we'll move this idea to In discovery and I'll keep you looped in on any progress that could help needs here.

It would be great to have the ability to have custom report codes so that we don't have to use unrelated report codes to achieve our reporting needs - especially as reporting requirements change (such as the incoming not-for-profit reporting changes). At the same time we don't want to lose the functionality across the Xero platform.
But would be good to be able to create a "Custom Name" report code (such as "Capital Grants") and then assign this to a Xero Product level report code (such as the existing Grants - Rev.Oth.Gra). This would allow the reports and Xero workpapers to run as needed for the practice but set reports like the IR10 import into Xero tax could still un off the Xero level report codes.
