    Hi everyone, we appreciate the interest surrounding this idea, however we want to be open that we're unable to extend our log-out time past 60 minutes. Xero hold a lot of sensitive information including bank data and we're required to be as secure as online banking.
    Any session information running on a web browser can potentially be stolen. If the session does not time out. You then have an infinitely long vulnerability window to session hijacking. Our best option is to keep a tight expiration window on the session cookie, and regenerate them frequently. Even setting a long timeout doesn't help with this - too long a timeout will greatly increase the risk of invasion or potentially jeopardise your personal data and the safety and integrity of the Xero application itself. This is why we maintain control of this.

    I'm currently just copy pasting the project address into the reference field..

    We have been able to integrate Xero with our database so that we can at least get the job reference number, but still not the address

    Had never heard of Sage until now - but yes agree that it is a lot more basic than other systems I have used.
    Have also found the reporting options not great either

    Hi everyone, thanks for engaging and sharing how this feature could improve your experience using Xero. I'm happy to announce that we have rolled out a new invoice template editor which is currently available to AU, UK, US and NZ organisations.

    This new experience allows you to easily upload your business logo, auto applies your branded colouring and has simple tools to customise the look of your invoices, with an easy side by side view to see what a change will look like!

    Get in and have a try if you haven't already, I'll round back to confirm once this live to all regions. 😊
