Thanks for the suggestion to add a “Check VAT” action in Xero Contacts to verify VAT numbers directly with HMRC John. We can see how this would be a helpful addition for ongoing supplier checks ✨.We’re moving this idea to Gaining Support so others can vote and add real-world examples. The more detail you can share about when and how you’d use this (for example, one-off checks during setup vs. quarterly reviews), the better we can assess impact and prioritisation. We’ll continue to monitor interest and will update this thread if there’s progress to share.

Hi Brian, appreciate it's not a direct filter option like you're asking here however if you often need to filter by say country or another aspect of your Contact perhaps you may consider creating Contact groups? This way you'd be able to click on the group within contacts when you need.
Being open we don't have any direct plans for adding more filtering to the Contact list atm, but we'll continue to track your idea here and share if there are any plans made.

Hi Emma , thanks for sharing your feedback and idea. For tracking payable transactions (bills) by contact, we suggest using the Supplier Bill Activity Report or filtering the Account Transactions Report by contact and payable invoices. If you require setup assistance, please raise a case with our support team for guidance.Regarding the 'last active/used date' feature: This functionality is not currently available in Xero. We have moved your idea to the Gaining Support section.We encourage you to share this idea with others to help build traction for its development.

Ai helped me create an app with an API to check EU, UK and AU ABN/VAT # by dropping in an invoice and using OCR, it then connects via API to the government sites returns all results, i.e. valid, tax status, collecting GST/VAT etc, and address. AI built the App in 30 mins. if someone without any coding experience can do it, Xero can do it. it should be standard.
within 15 seconds, i have a clear view on how to setup the vendor. ideally Xero should take the details from the API call and pre-populate the required fields in Xero, reducing the manual input. next step is to connect my standalone APP via API to update Xero for me. again, i should not have to build simple things that should be standard in Xero.
