Hi team, wanting to provide an update to you here, we want you to know we understand the efficiency more users would like to have in being able to automate the creation of the Xero subscription invoice inside their Xero org.
To highlight from my last update for UK users this is possible with eInvoicing through the online invoice (My Bills page).
This is still something we're interested in developing in more regions however isn't planned in our roadmap just yet.
When resource opens up for us to be able to pick this work up we will share an update with you all on this here. Thanks for staying engaged and supporting in this idea.

@Michael Welbourne, I'm with you on this - only the subscriber can opt in to receive the bills? This means that I get to walk infinite clients through the process of doing this for me, or make my boss use their valuable time to do it for ALL the company's clients, individually. And if it's not going to land in Drafts without further input from the subscriber, then this has to happen EVERY MONTH.
We have better things to do.

Hi everyone, we appreciate all the feedback you've shared.
We'd like to share some changes that have been made since our last update;
- The Demo Company now appears as its own item, separate from the Recent organisations list.
- Separately your recent organisations section can be collapsed, which we understand is helpful for users when sharing their screen.
- There's also now a banner that clearly identifies when you’re in the Demo Company, to help avoid scenarios of entering real organisation data in the wrong place.
We recognise there’s continued interest in being able to hide this option completely. While our product team is aware of this appetite and will continue to consider it in future planning, we want to be transparent here that there are no plans to develop a hide or remove setting in the near term.
We hope these changes make the experience clearer and help reduce accidental access.

Hi everyone, we're grateful for your feedback on improving Find and Recode, and recognise how sorting by description could enhance your ability to review and recode transactions.
While not a direct solution, you could filter by Contact and then in the browser Ctrl + F to search highlight keywords in descriptions and find the right transactions. We know it's not perfect, but might help narrow things down.
To be transparent and provide some clarity here, there are no planned changes to change the functionality within Find & recode right now. We will share if our position around this changes and there are any updates for you all here.

There are so many times that a client has accidentally coded something wrong and I come in and do my checks before doing their BAS, and I can only recode the bills coded "GST on income" en masse if the client's Xero subscription is expensive enough. Having to undo the payment before I can correct the miscoding doubles the time I spend and therefore how much my client has to spend on my time, and if they don't have a higher subscription level then they don't have that money to spend.

Hi all, we’ve now made Product Ideas available in Xero Central search, you’ll spot them in the results with their green label for “Product Idea” or you can filter your search under “What do you want to do?” to select “Share an idea”. 😁
As mentioned in our last update we’re also looking into making Product Ideas easier to find - we’ll update this idea once we’ve got more to share.

Hi everyone, thanks for sharing your thoughts on having a payroll report that calculates payroll state tax. We understand some of you are required to calculate tax across multiple states.
While we don't currently have a report which calculates earnings based on state, some of you have mentioned workarounds such as using the Payroll Activity Summary report. This report includes earnings totals and can be filtered by a date range and employee groups.
We recognise the value a report of this nature could have for our customers and it’s been added to the wider pool of ideas for our product team to consider for future development.
While it’s not on our immediate roadmap, we’ll be sure to keep you looped in if there’s any progress.

This would be amazing. Being able to designate which employee belongs to which state for the month (instead of having to use one of the two tracking categories) would also be amazing, especially for businesses in border towns like Canberra.
(if an employee lives 5 minutes across the border into NSW, but usually works in Canberra, then usually the employer would be counting them in their ACT payroll tax. But if they work one week of the month in Queensland, then that month they're not working exclusively in one state so you have to go to the tiered tests to see which state they count for, and the first of those tests is where the employee's permanent place of residence is, so for that month that the employee worked one week in Queensland and three weeks in Canberra, the employer gets to include them in their NSW payroll tax lodgement. Fun.)

Yeah - the big problem for me with my own workaround is that we can only have two active tracking categories, so if I use one for payroll tax then I only have one for everything else. I'd rather have a report.

We get around this by manually assigning a tracking category to each employee, but that is subject to user error. An automatic report based on postcode would be easier (some of us would still have to adjust it for cross-border employees, like those that live in nearby NSW but work in Canberra, but it would give us a starting point).

Hi everyone, I wanted to share another update regarding timesheet flexibility.
Our product team is currently working on a feature that will allow employees to add other unit-based earnings types directly to their timesheets via Xero Me. This means your team will soon be able to record allowances and other non-ordinary earnings pay items alongside their regular hours.
We know this has been a highly requested feature to help reduce manual adjustments for admins. We are currently in the development phase and will provide a further update here once we’re closer to a release date.

As it stands, in order to do this correctly, the same entity has to have two Xero instances, one for each country, which is dumb.

We do this manually with a repeating draft bill set up to ensure we don't forget that the liability needs to be paid; it would be AMAZING to not have to manually do this every BAS and IAS.

This is one of the reasons I refuse to use the new BAS option - I and my clients are still using the old activity statement because checking that changes or mistakes from previous periods are taken up within the time span that the ATO allows is kind of important.

Hi everyone, thanks for your feedback on this idea. We appreciate you sharing how useful it would be to see the details of the payments on the Contact activity page.
The product team have reviewed this and it's something they would like to explore, though it isn't currently on the roadmap. This idea remains open for votes and comments, so please continue sharing your experiences here as your input helps us understand how this feature could support your workflows.

Thanks for the update, @Ethan M.
Please note that as of this date, all three pages you linked with instructions show instructions for NZ - the URL coding implies that there should be a slightly different one for Australia, where I am (I assume that I can sub ABN for NZBN without changing anything substantial)
