    Hi team, we've been following the conversation for being able to assign a tracking category to each account in the Chart of Accounts, and we appreciate everyone here who's taken time to share their feedback.

    We understand manually assigning tracking categories to every line of a transaction is time-consuming and can lead to errors. 

    While not the direct idea asked here, it may help some to know that you can set a default account and tracking on individual contacts. On the flip side once transactions have been entered Find and recode is another feature that could possibly be useful to some here (however we'd recommend checking in with your advisor and testing in the demo org, before using in your own). 

    We want to be transparent with you here that though this idea has been carefully reviewed, like other areas of Xero the Chart of Accounts page initially…

    Ability to allocate a default Tracking Category to a general ledger code.

    Purpose: E.g. we have 3 divisions in our company and need to perform a profit and loss on each division. These accounts are populated by 3 3rd party apps (Woo Commerce, EasyCars, Workshop Mate) which makes it time consuming to go through each imported transaction and allocate a tracking category. If we allocated the migrated transactions to a unique account with a set default Tracking Category, we could perform the profit and loss by tracking category.

    Hi everyone, we'd like to return with an update for all who've supported the idea for attaching files within Payroll.

    As we develop foundations of payroll to enable us to consider new features like this, we're beginning discovery of how we might build this capability and when this could be planned in our roadmap.

    This is just the initial stages of diving deeper into this work, but steering in the right direction.

    I'll be sure to share any progression around attachments within payroll with you all, here.

    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.
    If we detect there's been no activity on a page (e.g…
