Thanks everyone, we thoroughly appreciate your feedback on changes when adding or editing a contact.
Since the initial release, our team have made an update and you'll find you can now enter IBAN and SWIFT into account number without it throwing errors.
Currently, if you save information into the account number field it'll spread across the bank account prefix and bank account number fields - The thing to note is that this will not impact processing of batch payments and will be one field when exported for batch payments.
We understand it’s not the perfect solution and are looking at further enhancing this - I'll keep you updated here.

Agee that this is a basic accounting feature and should be considered as an enhancement by Xero. The inefficiencies/ extra work created by lack of this functionality should not exist and doesn't align with best practice.
Would like to see a development/ enhancement by Xero to rectify this issue as it is difficult to see how this functionality works with a scaling business.

Additional bank detail requirements are necessary to be stored as part of contact information, to allow for international payments. We are in the US market however have requirements for UK (Sort code/ account number) and EU (IBAN/ SWIFT).
Would expect this as basic functionality and it creates inefficiencies in our payments process.
Xero should strongly consider this as a development/ enhancement feature as for a scaling business it is difficult to see how the functionality continues to work for us.
