Hi everyone, we appreciate the attention this idea has been getting. It's really good to hear how we can continue to improve the Homepage for our differing customers needs. We understand not all the widgets maybe useful to every user, and the 'Customise' button will let you add or remove widgets to reduce what you see on the Homepage.
Taking on board feedback we're looking at the sizing of widgets and you'll find the 'Chart of Accounts' and 'Cash in and out' widgets are now smaller by default with an option to 'Make larger' - You can follow further updates for this on the idea here.
We have plans to dig deeper into possible 'view' options (like the different levels of views being asked here) in the new year and I'll share further updates here when this gets picked up. 🙂

Hi Regan, we can see how having a net cash movement line would be a real time-saver. While the bars for money coming in and going out give a good sense of activity, having that “bottom line” plotted as a trend would make it much easier to see your actual cash flow health at a glance.
At the moment, the Cash In and Out widget already shows cash in, cash out, and the difference, where a cash in net shows as a positive difference and vice versa. For a more detailed view, head to Short-term Cash Flow under the Reporting menu to explore trends and movements beyond the main dashboard.
I’ve moved this idea to Gaining Support so we can see how many in the community would find a net cash line useful. If this is something that would make your day-to-day easier, add your vote or share your experience—hearing…

Hi team, we appreciate the feedback on the bank account widget here and I have made sure this is shared back with our product team. As soon as I have any updates I will let you know here. Thanks

Hi there!
Thanks for sharing such detailed feedback on the bank balance charts.
I’ve categorized this as Gaining Support. While we don't roll back to previous versions of the homepage, I’ve refined your idea to focus on making the balance charts configurable (1, 3, 6, or 12 months).
This covers your need for historical data while allowing for future flexibility.
Since our forum works best with one idea per post, I've focused on the chart visibility first. I’d recommend raising the "balance projection" as a separate suggestion so it can be voted on individually!

Hi everyone, appreciate the tractions on this idea.
It's clear that having key tax and compliance dates visible on the dashboard would make it much easier to plan ahead and ensure due dates are met. When those deadlines live outside of Xero, it can mean extra admin and more mental load than necessary.
I’ve moved this to Gaining Support so we can capture interest and share with the product team how valuable this added visibility would be.

Instead of a task widget, have a calendar that could be customized that automatically had due dates and tax deadlines etc would be helpful. As long as it was able to be edited to add custom data like reminders, significant dates, etc.

Hi Andrea, appreciate your sharing on how having a “Tax and Reporting” shortcut on the dashboard would make accessing tax returns and key reports quicker and simpler. Navigating through multiple menus can slow things down, especially when deadlines are looming.
In the meantime, you can access your VAT return directly from the Tax menu on the navigation bar for quicker access.
I’ve moved this idea to Gaining Support so we can track interest and show our product teams how much this shortcut could help make compliance tasks faster and more efficient.

Hi Terry, it's great to hear your idea on how to make the dashboard work harder for you! Having your key reports front and center would make it more accessible.
Right now, jumping into the full reports menu multiple times a day can feel a bit repetitive, especially when you rely on certain custom reports.
For now, you can use the “Starring” feature in the Reports center. Star your favourites and they’ll appear at the top of the Reporting menu for quicker access. Some users also find it handy to bookmark report URLs in their browser for instant access.
This idea is now Gaining Support, so the product team can see how much interest there is in more dashboard customisation.

Appreciate the extra details shared by everyone here.
We'll continue to get a track of the interest in a specific widget for accessing reports from the Homepage and share if there are any developments planned around this.
Right now, just to highlight what is possible - You can favourite a report from the Reports centre including a custom report you've set up to make this accessible from the Reporting drop down menu in the navigation.

Hi community, thank you for all the engagement and we can see the growing interest in improvements to help simplify your view of information on the new Homepage and navigate important information and insights with more ease.
Right now, our team have a few pieces of work underway intended to help with some of the pain points that have been raised here these include:
- More options for the sizing of widgets so you can reduce these frames and better position this information on your screen
- More customisation of information within a widget like being able to remove visuals
- Improving the experience of moving widgets when editing the homepage to make it more obvious when dragging and dropping them to different positions on the page
We’ve also roadmapped further changes for later this year, once everyone is on the new experience. I’ll share more updates as we progress.

I do NOT like this new layout. Its too busy, and it removed the line graph on the bank account widget which was extremely useful before. I also do NOT like the split screens on the bills page when you click on a bill. Its way too busy and adds nothing.

Hi everyone, we thoroughly appreciate the feedback we've been receiving about the sizing of widgets and desire for more flexibility with these.
Our product teams are currently working on updates to allow resizing of more of the widgets on the Homepage.
There are considerations that weigh into what's possible' like what information sits within each widget.
The resizing will work in the same way as what has been provided with the Cash in and out, and Chart of accounts watch list widget.
I'll be sure to keep you updated here as new widget sizes are rolled out. Thanks

Keep the line graphs in the bank account widgets from the original homepage. It is very helpful to be able to glance and know how you are doing and catch issues at a glance. Especially when using bank account as a clearing account when money in should match money out.
