Hi everyone, we appreciate all the feedback and votes on this idea. We know using Microsoft Entra ID SSO is now common practice for some businesses and being able to access Xero via a native integration with Entra ID would streamline how your teams log in and get set up in Xero, as well as help in managing access for larger teams and keeping things secure.
Our product team have been working with a small limited group of Partners to develop SSO capabilities. Though we can't give any definite timelines yet, we’ll keep this thread updated with news. Thanks

I concur with Adam.
I work for an ISO 27001 consultancy, and Xero appears on many of our clients' risk registers for this.
Given QuickBooks Online doesn't appear do this either, implementing it would give Xero a marketable USP in the small business space to pick up the SMB's that take cybersecurity seriously (which is a large chunk) and hoover up some of QB's market segment.
I don't know if the reticence is the complexity of implementing it, or the expected time commitment to supporting users afterwards, but the demand for it isn't' going to go away ... and if Xero can't deliver, I can see some of our customers moving away to other solutions that do (and as a consultant, I can't blame them either).

Hi community, we appreciate everyone's engagement here. To confirm we have intentions of developing the purchase order experience, however developing Projects into this does have some complexities and requires work across both purchase orders and projects to deliver.
Right now our initial focus is releasing the new purchase order experience to all users.
While we don't have a timeframe for assigning PO's to Projects at this stage, this is top of our product teams radar and we'll communicate here as soon as there's an update.

They comply with ISO 27001 (and SOC 2 I've just noticed) so I'm comfortable with the back end protections.
SSO is a nice to have, especially for smaller businesses (which I believe is Xero's target market), so while it's taken a while to get here I'm happy that it's finally coming ... but it was never a deal breaker for us.
