Hello everyone, appreciate all your feedback here. To be upfront, we don’t have any plans to develop the ability to reconcile clearing, control and non-bank accounts in the near future.
Some of the technology improvements going on across Xero will create more opportunities for us to explore extending some of the more complex functionality from one part of Xero to another. However, we are some way off from this yet.
That being said, there is the Account transaction report that could be handy in providing a view of both sides of a transaction in Xero. You can include the related account as a column in the report - See more in our help article on this.
Alternatively, if you’re using an external system, you could look into the Xero App store.
Appreciate there are also lots of ways others are using Xero’s to fit their needs - If you…

Hi Polina, thanks for highlighting this idea. We can see how having Xero Projects data available within standard reports could make it easier to analyse financial performance without needing to switch between different reports.
While Projects data isn't currently available as a reporting filter in standard financial reports, using Tracking Categories alongside your projects can help if you need project-based reporting within reports like the Profit & Loss.
I've updated the status of this idea to Gaining Support so we can continue tracking interest from the community. If there are particular reports or project metrics you'd like to see supported, let us know so we can capture those use cases too.

Thanks for your feedback on Projects here, Tia. If you have any other detail you can share or examples of how sub projects would be used by your business this would be useful for our product teams consideration.
We don't have any plans for this at present, but make sure you share the idea with other colleagues that could also find this useful so we can get a wider understanding of the interest.

Hey everyone, thanks for all the support and engagement on this idea.
To be transparent with you all, building a dedicated bank feed for GoCardless isn't something we have in our plans right now.
While we don't have a direct bank feed for GoCardless, we still want to make sure you can easily reconcile these payments in Xero - When your customer pays, Xero automatically reconciles the individual invoice payments and fees in a dedicated GoCardless clearing account. You'll then just need to manually reconcile the bank transfer when the payout from GoCardless arrives in your bank account.
We’ll be sure to post an update here if our plans change.

Hi everyone, thanks for sharing your feedback on this idea about creating bank rules for supplier overpayments. 💙 We appreciate you explaining how this could help save time when regular payments are made before bills are received or when amounts don’t match.
This idea is now open for community support through votes and comments. If you’d find this useful, please add your vote and share how you’d use this functionality, including any examples from your own workflow.
We’ll keep an eye on the feedback and engagement this receives. Thanks again for helping us understand which improvements would make the biggest difference.

Hi team, sorry it's taken so long for us to return to the idea here.
I appreciate the feedback from my last update where I suggested lock dates as an option and hear why this isn't a viable option for some.
If you're based in the US or CA you may want to check out our newer feature 'Reconcile period' that enables you to reconcile and close period within each bank account.
It'd be good to hear if users from other regions in this idea believe reconcile period would resolve what you're after here and I can merge in to this idea where we're continuing to track interest for expanding this feature to other region. Thanks

Hi team, thank you for adding your support to this idea. We understand how having the ability to lock individual accounts could help in preventing transactions being posted to specific accounts and accidental posting that can impact your reports.
While this is something we'd like to continue tracking we want to be upfront that we don't have any development to accommodate this need planned in the short term.
I will make sure to share if there is news for you here.

Hi everyone, while we appreciate your interest in a direct feature in Xero to schedule and manage loans this isn't something we have planned right now.
We do have some information on Xero Central that may help some here with managing loans in Xero.
We will continue to monitor the community support for this in the forums here, and share if there are any updates.

Thanks for your feedback and for sharing your thoughts on this idea. We understand having to untick the "Show (currency) items only" adds extra clicks and slows you down. Our current default setting is designed to help prevent common reconciliation mistakes. Most users primarily reconcile transactions in their local currency, so defaulting to that view helps keep the screen less cluttered and reduces the risk of accidental mismatches with foreign currency transactions, which can be complex. For now, the process is to untick the "Show [currency] items only" box whenever you need to reconcile a foreign currency transaction. We know this isn't a perfect solution for everyone, but we wanted to provide some context on why the current design is in place. We'll continue to listen to your feedback and will let you know if anything changes. Thanks for being part of the Xero community!

Hi community, thanks for continuing to engage, and sharing your needs in adding more layers to your chart of accounts structure.
We know especially for some of our US customers that this can sometimes be a show stopper in using of Xero.
Right now, we do have a product team that have begun exploring the efforts that'd be required to implement a change of this nature - while we can't commit to any development at this point we'll share any progression with you all here. Thanks

Hey Team, thanks for sharing this idea but right now Xero doesn’t have a dedicated pro‑forma invoice document type in Quotes or Invoices. We are moving this to Gaining Support so others can Vote and Comment.
The main workaround is to use a Quote as your pro‑forma (with wording like “Pro‑forma invoice – not a tax invoice” in the template), then convert the quote to an invoice only once the amount is confirmed and you’re ready for it to hit your accounts.
You can find more detail on how pro‑forma invoices work in our guide:
What is a pro forma invoice? – https://www.xero.com/nz/guides/what-is-a-proforma-invoice/

Hi Roger, thanks for the feedback on this idea. it’s clear that seeing the number of days overdue directly on the Send Statements screen would make it easier to prioritise follow-ups without interrupting your workflow.
At the moment, the Date and Due Date of each outstanding invoice are already displayed on the Send Statement screen, but having the actual days overdue visible would give immediate context and help you act faster when sending statements.
We have now move this idea to Gaining Support, which means it’s open for votes and comments. Hearing from the community will help our product teams understand how much value this visibility would add across different workflows.

Hi everyone, we appreciate the engagement here.
While it's not possible to edit an expense from the generated bill, it's possible to edit the expense receipt from within the expenses feature.
We'd like to highlight the options shared earlier in the thread here (thanks!)
Editing an expense can be done by a user with the appropriate permissions after it's been submitted. You'd click the Go to Expenses button on the bill and from here you can edit and itemise the receipt to split this across projects.
The only time this isn' possible is once the Bill has had a payment applied, in which can you'd need to first remove & redo before you can edit the receipt.
Alternatively, there is also the ability for a Submitter to itemise the receipt when creating and before submitting.
We want to be upfront that we don't have any plans for enabling this capability…
