Hi everyone, we appreciate the interest surrounding this idea, however we want to be open that we're unable to extend our log-out time past 60 minutes. Xero hold a lot of sensitive information including bank data and we're required to be as secure as online banking.
Any session information running on a web browser can potentially be stolen. If the session does not time out. You then have an infinitely long vulnerability window to session hijacking. Our best option is to keep a tight expiration window on the session cookie, and regenerate them frequently. Even setting a long timeout doesn't help with this - too long a timeout will greatly increase the risk of invasion or potentially jeopardise your personal data and the safety and integrity of the Xero application itself. This is why we maintain control of this.

With the Notes tab, it would be handy to have a notes indicator on the job manager as a column to be able to prompt that there's extra information, such as a job waiting on info, what info is still coming. A simple Y or blank would work

I find that Xero Green/(grey) logging out all the time is extremely frustrating for work flow. It has become more apparent with the new versions coming through, that if I spend more than an hour on a job, Xero has logged me out, and the timer I was using resets and loses the time, and after re-logging in, I am taken to the home page, and not the job I was just in. Can there please be an option to remain logged in until the browser closes or I choose to log out, and for goodness sake, can I stay on the page that I was originally on!
