Hi community, we appreciate this idea has collected a fair amount of votes and commentary. This has all been shared with, and considered by, our product team - so they have an understanding of the work that would be required for this.
We'd like to confirm that, at this stage, the automatic generation and sending of reports is not something we have plans to develop in the near term. We are still interested to get a clearer understanding of demand for this feature, and we'll continue to track this through the conversation and votes on this idea. If there's any change we will let you know!

Sadly such a simple request is being denied? Why because it is a user feature that prevents Xero from locking-in/controlling your data and being able to charge for 3rd party integrations.
Yet another example of the Enshittification of the internet. Even from a company like Xero that did so much to make things better.
As the pressure to continually maximise profitability hits senior management, they have to start erecting (or in this case, not removing) little barriers that make the service shittier for customers - unless you pay them more in some way.
Do better Xero! Don't become a Quickbooks.

Surely this is a mistake. This must be available already. QBO legacy user here - assessing Xero for a new entity. Do I have to go back to manual reporting??

Sorry to let all Xero users know, but we aren't going to get this sort of flexible data interchange outside the xero platform.
Why? Because in this new age of enshottification, you will either need to sign up with more users to be able to access the reports in Xero, or you will need to pay a monthly charge for a third party app to be able to email reports.
Software companies don't do upgrades now unless you pay them (forever) for thos upgrades.
I have been watching this request for close on 2 years. Zero progess speaks volumes about so called beautiful accounting services.
