Great suggestion, Ben! Thanks for your comment here.
Currently, our automation relies on your Xero organisation's reconciliation history and bank rules, new organisations, or those with a limited history, may find it takes longer for the automation to learn patterns initially.
To get the most out of automation, we do recommend setting up bank rules, keeping your contacts and chart of accounts up to date, and reconciling frequently.
When you're just getting set up and started there is also the option of uploading a pre-coded bank statement to help with getting your first few months of spend and receive money transactions created and reconciled quickly.
We appreciate how this process could help in onboarding new clients and setting up their organisations, and this is something we're exploring. I'll be sure to share any progress of this through the idea here.

Great to see you're getting in to test our new automated bank reconciliation. Can see how this would be useful if you often work with a lot of Xero organisations.
We'll start gauging the interest for this from others here, and our product teams are taking on board all feedback so I'll share if there are any updates. Thanks!

Hi team, thanks for the additional insights to those that have shared via the poll in my last update - You can still rank the importance of stats with us anonymously through the link here. 😊
It's truly valuable to get this feedback from customers to understand what insights would be most valuable for our customers to see and action on quickly.
Right now we don't have immediate plans, but we'll take these learnings into future planning to continue to develop automated bank rec, and I'll share if there are any updates with you all here.

Thanks for the great discussion and all the votes on this idea. We know that without the ability to set specific leave approvers, it can be harder to keep governance clear, avoid self-approval and ensure requests go to the right person.
While we’re not planning to develop dedicated approval workflows in the near term, we want to share a tip that many have found useful. You can help streamline the process by guiding employees to select their direct manager from the approver list. While all payroll admins and leave approvers are listed, this step helps make sure requests reach the right person and keeps oversight clear.
Your feedback here is incredibly valuable for future planning and we’ll continue to keep an eye on this idea’s traction. We’ll keep it open for voting and will share any updates if plans change down the track.

Given it is a Fairwork requirement to show casual loading on a casual employee's payslip, I would hope that Xero could build this into their templates that when you select casual as the employment type, it automatically picks up the casual loading either as a separate line item or builds in a one line item saying casual hourly rate with the loading built it, that would then hopefully make the overtime calculation easier too!

very important for my clients whom need their accounts audited and we want the supporting documents filed in Xero but only want the auditor to have view only access.

Hi everyone, thanks for all your feedback and highlighting the need for multi-currency manual journals, and being able to see the FX rate directly in the journal.
We understand the needs in this space have close ties with this idea for being able to journal to bank accounts, and this is something we have intentions of doing deeper discovery around in the longer term. However, we want to be upfront that this work isn't roadmapped right now.
Though we appreciate not the straight forward approach that you’re after here - currently you can create the journal via a bill in the relevant foreign currency. Entering positive and negative lines for the debit and credit entries, which results in a 0.00 bill total once approved. The bill lines are converted to your organisation’s base currency using the bill’s FX rate, and the transaction won’t revalue.
As soon as there's movement…

Hi team, appreciate wanting an update - I'm pleased to share the beta went well and we've now launched international bill payments for our UK customers, making it easier to pay overseas suppliers.
Using open banking, UK businesses can now securely send money to 180+ countries including Europe (EUR), America (USD) and Australia (AUD). So you don't have to juggle multiple platforms or hidden fees. Whether you're paying a single bill or multiple bills at once, you can authorise payments prepared by your team and easily track which suppliers have been paid.
We’re committed to new ways to expand our bill payments feature for small businesses and their advisors in other regions by leveraging new technologies, where available. I'll keep you updated of any further developments for this, here.

Very frustrating for many of my clients whom use foreign suppliers and have to manually pay each one via their banking, so time consuming.

Hi community, we really value all feedback that has been shared through this idea to help our product teams understanding of the needs here.
Enabling this capability has been closely considered and we understand the importance of this feature for customers that make monthly PAYG income tax instalments.
However, we want to be upfront that this work has not been roadmapped yet.
This will continue to be a feature raised in our product teams regular planning sessions and I'll be sure to share if there are any updates on this, here. Thanks

Critical for a few of my clients, would be great to get this one actioned sooner rather than later!

Hi everyone, thanks for your on-going involvement in the idea here.
We understand many of our customers are trading internationally. While we haven't been able to deliver a solution as yet, this is still high on our radar.
Right now, depending on the country selected when setting up organisations will have different field options - Sort code in UK, BSB code in AU and Routing number in US. This explains the differences some in the conversation have mentioned. I appreciate it's not a solution but for the time being any extra detail (IBAN or any other banking detail) for the contact could be added as a note to the contacts record that can be looked up before making payments.
For our UK customers that have set up international bill payments - Though not direct from Contacts you can edit and save international payment details for a supplier through the flow…

This is critical for my client whom have an Australian arm of their business and create the batch file for their overseas finance team to facilitate the bank payment, it will ensure suppliers are not missed being paid and greater control here in Australia for their operations.

Also frustrating when an employee is requesting leave via Xero Me for multiple days off it doesn't give you the hours field to select the actual total hours wanted to be taken over the multiple days, this only comes up if you select just the one day leave. Really needs to be updated ASAP.
