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.

Hi community, thank you for sharing on your needs and why being able to adjust columns widths within Job Manager would be helpful for your practice.

We'll continue to keep a view on the interest here and if there are any plans made, I'll let you know.

XPM - Utilise wider screen section for work in progress lists and allow ability to widen the columns manually as the current WIP lists only use approx. half of the screen width.
Currently my job names combined with the job number are wider than the column width meaning the end of the job name is missed off and often this relates to the specific period for the job meaning I cannot easily see what time / WIP relates to which job without clicking on the job itself.

Software logs you out without refreshing page and therefore often I enter information onto a timesheet webpage without knowing the software has logged me out and therefore when clicking save the information is lost!!
My IRIS Elements software gives me an option when logging in to select "Stay logged in" which will then ensure I stay logged in for the day, but still being logged out at the end of the day.
