    Hi team, we’ve been reading through the feedback on manual contact classification, and it’s clear how valuable this’d be for many of you.

    In Xero today, contact types are shaped by transaction history. Bills and invoices determine whether a contact appears as a supplier or customer, which works well in many cases but doesn’t cover every workflow, such as where you use spent or received money transactions and contacts stay unclassified.

    While not immediately roadmapped, we understand the needs shared through this idea. It’s on our Product team’s radar for future improvement. For the time being, we’ll keep an eye on the growing interest here, and update you as soon as there’s progress.

    Add new field to able to classify or tag suppliers and contacts by category/type for easy searching and reporting e.g. recruitment, employees, stationary, legal, Government. This would really help with our procurement procedures.
