Hi team, we have some updates to share. Before we dive into the details, we want to be clear that while we’re committed to monitoring, learning, and refining the Homepage, we don’t intend to return to the previous Dashboard style or its column-based widget layout.
A few months back, we rolled out several enhancements to the "Edit homepage" capability to give you better control over your layout, including:
- Widgets that remain stationary until they are dropped into a new placement
- A "shadow" preview showing exactly where a widget will be placed during drag-and-drop
- Refined animations for a much smoother visual experience
- Improved on-page guidance regarding how to save multiple layouts across different screen sizes
In addition to the existing size options for Chart of Accounts and Cash In and Out, our team is currently building smaller widget sizes for Invoices Owed to You, Bills to Pay, Chart of Account, Cash…

I too am looking for another option. In case you didn't realize how bad this is Xero, it takes a lot to move 33 clients to a new platform but we have started the process unless something changes pretty quick we will find a solution and move them all.

I have been automatically transitioned to the new home page and it is absolutely awful, its too cluttered, even with designing your new home page it has 4 columns and looks terrible on the page and you can't make the widgets smaller.
This is going to seriously impact my work flow as I will need to delete all the widgets on my company and all my clients company and have a blank home page. Then I will need to spend extra time navigating to the items I need. Not at all helpful XeroI agree this also creates a confidentiality issue as these widgets are so large you can see them from across the street and everyone can view the financial information.
Please at least give us the option to keep the old version if we so desire. Xero please start listening to your customers instead of trying to justify yet another price increase with senseless "upgrades" These are not upgrades you are simply rearranging deck chairs on the Titanic and we all know how that turned out.
Have the option to keep your existing home page, I hate the new one and it is reducing my efficiency, I spend more time reverting to the old where available and removing all the widgets on the others.

Thanks for your feedback and letting us know how we could improve the way duplicates alerts work for you here.
While we don't have any immediate changes planned for this, our team will consider improvements to this model overtime.
For the time being we'll continue to keep our eyes on the support for this in community, here. I'll share if there is any news.

Hi everyone, our product teams are continuously reviewing and reprioritising their roadmaps for future work and although we don’t have any plans to change the credit application process this year, this is something we will investigate more closely in 2026.
As we begin to explore work for enabling credit notes in the bill payments flow, we’ll reach out for input to help us shape the design and approach so we cater for the widest possible requirements. Thank you all, and we’ll be back to share when exploration starts.

This is a fundamental accounting requirement and we have been asking for it since I switched to Xero in 2017.

Agreed, We have been asking for the same basic functionality since I joined in 2016 and all we get is higher prices for things we don't want, like the new invoicing. I refuse to use it, it is dreadful, definitely not an improvement and certainly not worth the increase in price.

We have been asking for this since I started using Xero in 2017, when is this basic accounting feature going to be implemented?

We have been asking for this for as long as I remember. Why is this not implemented already? To have to go to the account and allocate a credit against and unrelated invoice is unnecessary and time consuming. Why can we not just allocate the credit along with the invoices that are being paid at the point of posting the payment? All other software I have used has this feature seems like a not brainer to me.

Hi team, as you may have seen from our Designer Jen's message this idea is in discovery with the team now doing some testing on early concepts.
We'd love to have your input as part of this and if you'd like to take part we invite you to fill in this quick survey. 📝
While we may not be able to invite everyone into these sessions our team will be in touch over the next few weeks.
I'll be sure to share any further updates on tyhis with you all here. Thanks!

Hi everyone, we appreciate the attention this idea has been getting. It's really good to hear how we can continue to improve the Homepage for our differing customers needs. We understand not all the widgets maybe useful to every user, and the 'Edit homepage' button will let you add or remove widgets to reduce what you see on the Homepage.
Taking on board feedback we're looking at the sizing of widgets and you'll find the 'Chart of Accounts' and 'Cash in and out' widgets are now smaller by default with an option to 'Make larger' - You can follow further updates for this on the idea here.
We have plans to dig deeper into possible 'view' options (like the different levels of views being asked here) in the new year and I'll share further updates here when this gets picked up. 🙂

I agree with Lisa, and others. I have just removed all the widgets from the home page except the bank accounts. What a waste, yet our prices will go up for this pleasure of this inconvenience.
