    Hi everyone, thanks for your continued engagement and support for the idea of making tracking categories mandatory in Xero. We really appreciate you sharing your insights on the benefits that adding this feature would bring to your financial reporting and month-end processes.

    Right now, you could use find and recode to assign a tracking option to any transaction lines that are currently unassigned. 

    Regarding the future of this idea, we've carefully reviewed all your feedback and the critical need you've expressed for this feature. While we understand the value and time-saving potential this improvement would bring, we want to be transparent that making tracking categories mandatory across all relevant transactions isn't on our roadmap for development. If our position of this changes in time, we'll share an update for everyone, here.

    In Xero Expenses, that Account code field is already a mandatory field which needs to be filled in in order to submit an expense. As for the other fields mentioned, there's currently no functionality in Xero to make these mandatory fields. It would be great if a cost centre and some other fields, ie. business lines can be made mandatory?

    It doesn’t look like this idea has been raised to Xero Product Ideas yet. Xero Product Ideas is a Xero website where our customers can share and support ideas for change.

    I’ve included a link to the website where you can view and support current ideas or create a new idea to share your thoughts.
