Hey everyone, thank you for all your feedback. We’re on a long journey to provide more granular access and controls within Xero features that our customers need.
As you may have seen in some of our recent updates across other user roles ideas we’re currently in the process of adding more permissions within Reporting and Inventory. Further to this our research has highlighted Payroll and Banking as areas that more controls are most needed, and are on our agenda as we continue to develop permissions and access to features.
Your feedback here and through direct engagements with our teams have been extremely insightful, and we appreciate all your inputs.
I'll continue to provide updates on the development of roles for features as we progress.

THis issue goes beyond data security and customer preferences - For Xero to start effectively providng a platform suitable for larger companies, internal controls related to internal and external audit standards must be considered. Quick example: virtually all internal control standards will assess who has rights to add/edit a payee/vendor and/or access the check creation process, and the bank reconciliation data (i.e.Xero bank feed transactions). Any proposed enhancements that does not recognize these standards of controls and limitations is fruitless for addressing the needs of larger organizations.

Adding, deleting or changing general ledger accounts should be tracked audit item. This is fundamental to sound security practice.

It's been over a year since Xero has provided any feedback or status on this critical issue. It's hard to believe this requires "long running" and "multiple phases" to discover an adequate user role structure - this has been widely addressed in multiple systems over several decades and the principles are fairly basic in nature, especially for a straight-forward platform like Xero.
