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

Hi everyone, we thoroughly appreciate your engagement and sharing how custom fields would be advantageous to you here.
With lots of work for 'building on beautiful' underway atm, we want to be honest that custom fields is not planned in the near term.
Some in the idea here, may find the recent addition of Notes that can be added within the Contact Details section of a contacts record useful in being able to record and view specific detail relative to a contact at present - More on this shared here
We'll continue to evaluate the viability of largely voted ideas such as this when there is resource, however this unlikely in the next 12 months.

The response from Kelly is extremely disappointing. This is undoubtedly a thing which is important to hundreds of customers but perhaps something which is more important than "building on beautiful". I cannot understand why this is so difficult to be honest as in many cases; people would be looking to reference other fields which are there, or just want to add some additional information into fields which, I would hope, you would have as configurable placeholder fields in the tables of the database. If not, a schema extension should be trivial as it wouldn't require adjusting the existing fields; only adding user configurable placeholders which could then be referenced elsewhere. I'm really disappointed with this response as I thought Xero were more customer focused than this. With little functional differences introduced over the last 18 months, I don't know what else your devs could be working on which is of significantly greater importance than real world customer need.

This is absolutely necessary as this may be required to give visibility to reseller customers who are selling products or services on to an end user. This has been open for a long time; please can this get some attention?

You make this sound as though it's a nice to have. With the number of cyber attacks currently happening, having single provisioning and access from Entra would enable us to use features like conditional access, centralised logging, and deprovisioning of users from one place without the need to manage it in Xero. Your RBAC is terrible; offering almost no granularity of user management, and there's no way to mandate security controls like MFA centrally. It's really not a nice to have, but a necessity because either you own security needs a tremendous amount of work, or you could just use existing known services like Entra. Xero is fast becoming the old competition that it used to overtake and it's time to wake up.
