    Hi everyone, thanks for continuing to share feedback about paying multiple bills in foreign currencies with us here.

    As mentioned in my last update UK organisations can use our online bill payments solution with Crezco to pay international suppliers.

    UK businesses can now use open banking to pay suppliers in 180+ countries, including in EUR, USD and AUD, either individually or in batches. Payments can be prepared by a team member, authorised and tracked in Xero.

    To share further progress in the US we've launched online bill payments through Melio, which includes ACH and international or cross-border payments.

    We've also launched a bill payments solution for AU with AirWallex that's currently in early access. This doesn't yet support paying in foreign currency however this functionality is high on our radar as we continue to develop this experience.

    We’ll continue to share progress as the further regional capabilities develop. Thanks

    Maybe, but that's the wrong way, if you're reconciling a bank statement it should be for a payment that already exists otherwise it's just yet another shortfall in the way the development team at Xero are forcing people to operate. In summary: Xero are wrong.

    Why are your replies always so bloody idiotic? Don't bother replying if you're not going to add any value, otherwise it's just going to **** all of us off even more.

    As usual, you're only coming up with a half-assed response Kelly, you should be ashamed of yourself. We don't only want the ability to interface payments with the bank, but the ability to pay a batch of invoices to the same foreign currency supplier without having to enter a payment for each individual bill and then try and match it together later. Get your head out of your behind and focus on what's needed and stop forcing people to do things in such a weird way.

    Shockingly short sighted, again. I shall have to report your incompetence to the Xero board again.

    Absolutely I agree with Kathryn and Kim, my clients sometimes have 20 or 30 invoices for a single supplier in a month there will paid by one single bank payment and yet in zero we have to **** about making 20 or 30 different remittance advice is to send to the client that then annoys the customer because they can't see directly or easily then make up of the payment they've received - especially if it's in a currency that's different from the customer account where perhaps they're receiving an equivalent value of a foreign currency.

    Quickbooks can do this very easily, for it's faults. If this isn't brought online in the next days, I am going to have to move away from Xero because this is stupid.

    Where is this functionality then? Similarly why can't I enter and post a manual batch of multi currency payments where we receive hundreds each month and need to wrap them in a single payment:

    * Unable to mark multiple USD supplier invoices as paid in a single batch payment
    * Receiving "Foreign currency not supported" error when attempting to pay multiple USD invoices at once
    * Both invoices and bank account are in USD
    * Organisation is set up for multi-currency and on the appropriate plan
    * Cannot select USD bank account when trying to record payment for multiple bills simultaneously
    * Wants to enter payment in advance before it clears the bank for multiple bills together

    We use Xero’s Pay bills (UK, direct bank transfer) to schedule GBP supplier payments for future dates. Our internal control needs an approver to receive the bills and supporting documents and authorise each payment before it goes out. We’ve built that workflow on the Xero API and webhooks, and it works well for payments made immediately.

    Scheduled payments break it completely. Once a batch is scheduled:

    Nothing appears in the Accounting API. Not in Payments, BatchPayments, Bank Transactions or the Invoices endpoint, until the payment date arrives.
    The bills themselves aren’t updated. Their status, UpdatedDateUTC and PlannedPaymentDate are all unchanged, so no webhook fires.
    The bills are locked once they’re in a batch, so we can’t add a marker ourselves.
    No email notification is sent when a batch is scheduled.

    The batch is clearly visible in Xero’s own Payment activity screen, with its status, payment date, bill count and total. Xero holds the data; it just isn’t exposed to the apps and integrations that rely on the API. The result is that any approval, notification or cash-flow process built around Xero only learns about a scheduled payment on the day the money leaves, which is too late to be useful.

    What we’re asking for:

    An API endpoint (or BatchPayments status values) for scheduled Pay-bills batches, showing the bills, amounts, payment date and status (Scheduled, Failed, Sent).
    A webhook event when a batch is scheduled, changed, failed or sent.
    At minimum, update the bills when they’re added to a scheduled batch, for example by setting PlannedPaymentDate, so integrations can detect them.
    An email notification when a batch is scheduled or fails. We currently have a failed batch showing in Payment activity that we’d only find by checking the screen manually.

    Scheduling payments is one of the main reasons to use Pay bills, but right now it’s the one part of the payment process that can’t be controlled or audited outside the Xero screen. Is this on the roadmap, and is there any interim way to access scheduled batch data?

    Hi everyone, we appreciate the on-going investment from our community here.

    We'd like to share an update as we're continuing to expand future-dated bill payments across regions.

    To recap;

    Next up is Australia, where we’re developing scheduled payments for online bill payments powered by Airwallex.

    We’re hoping to make this available to customers over the coming months, and we’ll share another update once this becomes available.

    Hi everyone, we appreciate this idea has built some support overtime.

    While we'll continue tracking interest in this here, being upfront developing the Account Transactions tab of a bank account to add a tally for the selected transaction amount is not in our short term plans.

    That said, JAX may help with some related tasks. For example, try asking: “What is the total of the credits in my 'x' account for the current financial year?” or "Give me a total of all bills paid between [date range]" - You can adapt this by using the relevant account and date range.

    We’ll continue to monitor interest in this idea and appreciate you sharing your feedback.

    Kelly, this is very easy to achieve, all you need to do, on the Account Transactions or other pages that allow you to checkbox one or more transactions is show (at the top where it says "X items selected") add a total for Spent Money and Receive Money.
    I have even started the JS script for you, which simply needs to be embedded into the page, it doesnt save values, it doesnt need to interact with the data in anyway excepting what is shown on screen. See attached.

    I simply cannot believe that I had not noticed this exists, another stupid let down when all it would be would be javascript function that would add massively when selecting items in a control account for reconciliation to ensure that they match / totals are the same. Absolutely bloody NUTS that this does NOT exist!!! Hasten to say ... QBO has had it for YEARS!!!

    Hi everyone, we understand how frustrating it is when important emails like invoices are filtered or blocked, and how this affects customer trust and timeliness of engagement with your transactional communications. Thank you for continuing to share examples and highlighting the impact this has on your business.

    We’ve made meaningful progress towards enabling email sending from your own domain. While progress is taking longer than we’d like, we can confirm that substantial backend work is underway. This work spans multiple interdependent teams across Xero, and there are still important steps we need to work through before we can release the capability to customers reliably.

    As we continue to develop this capability, there are a few questions that would help our product teams ensure we’re solving the majority of our users’ needs in this space, with a reliable and secure solution.

    We’d really appreciate your input on the following questions, either…

    Alexander Cope-Norris commented  · 

    Good morning, finally some movement, and thank you to Kate and the Executive Office team for taking note of my email yesterday! Apprciate it. On the custom domain, I think we need to understand that basic / non-technical users might not want, or care, to use a custom domain and (for this) we should take inspiration from how shopify allow custom domains to be configured (see here https://help.shopify.com/en/manual/intro-to-shopify/initial-setup/setup-your-email) - for some people they have the option to enter custom domain or subdomains and use those, and others they can just default to a unique (per store) subdomain of shopify.com.

    In answer to your questions:
    > Within your Xero account would you want multiple Users to be able to manage custom email domain settings, or just Administrators?
    >> I think absolutely it should be Admin users only, nobody else should be able to change, and this should sit in the business settings.

    > Does your domain have more than one mailbox associated with it?
    >> I think with configuring CNAME records which can then manage the SPF and DKIM association, or allow to set directly - customers can then add a primary "sending" email address for notifications, and this would ordinarily perhaps be one of two - one for purchasing and one for sales, or the same "accounts" mailbox for both. The key here is NOT using the Xero.com domains as these get blocked.

    > Would you want to use the same domain across more than one Xero organisation?
    >> I think you could have groups of companies with a common corporate domain, so yes, BUT perhaps these could simply be handled with subdomains instead.

    Indeed and while many of my clients customers use Xero, all emails from Xero have very low likelihood of delivery as they have been blacklilsted too many times.
    Xero dont have a clue, they keep on launching features that nobody asked for while ignoring key requirements.
    Kelly Munro is a waste of space as has been seen. I would encourage EVERYONE to join on the post, and repost and comment and tag Xero in the hope that they finally start listening to some of their 5mn dissatisfied users: https://lnkd.in/p/eYAUvrvy

    Totally agree Nigel, I'm finding nowadays that having any more customers on Xero is more of a liability than benefit.

    The entire system is just backwards in many ways, and the management team and developers just don't give AF. This Kelly person is next to useless.

    This was first reported THIRTEEN years ago Xero, come on!! Everyone else is doing this, why cant you? Postmark / Shopify / Mailchimp etc they all allow you to specify a domain and then you have to add various keys to your DNS to get this to work. It looks much more professional as well.

    Alternatively allow customers to configure a third party SMTP or mail relay service like Postmark.

    I just spoke to a large US law firm that deals with one of my clients, and they block ALL Xero emails owing to the large number of phishing and nefarious actions and they are refusing to unblock it - therefore my client cannot send hundreds of documents of an accounting nature EACH MONTH to them through the system.

    THIS IS AN ABSOLUTE BLOODY JOKE!!

    Yet another effing critical feature that Kelly Munroe is gatekeeping from us, how bloody useless that customers block the bad reputation post.xero.com domains and prevent my clients from sending emails directly and that we must rely on third party systems that add layers of complexity that arent needed. Another thing that many other (cheaper) provides offer FOC.

    Hi everyone, thank you for sharing how the current tracking limits impact your reporting and tracking of different aspects of your business and processes. We know this is an important capability.

    We’re exploring how we might tackle the needs in this idea and enhance Tracking Categories for the future.

    While we can't commit to developments at this stage, we want you to know we hear the support and feedback from our community on this.

    We’ll provide another update as the direction for this feature becomes clearer.

    The tracking categories are added as an array in the API meaning it isn't limited to just two, they just need to pass the larger array through the infrastructure. It really isn't a big deal, they're just making excuses because they had to focus on the coloured swooshes in the login page, that's all.

    Even if they stuck to just two and allowed nested tracking categories with parent / child relationships it would provide more flexibility.

    @thomas absolutely, couldnt agree more, and the API already handles tracking categories as an array so expanding beyond 4 wouldnt be unreachable task:
    "Tracking": [
    {
    "TrackingCategoryID": "e2f2f732-e92a-4f3a9c4d-ee4da0182a13",
    "Name": "Activity/Workstream",
    "Option": "Onsite consultancy"
    }
    ],

    If you cant increase the number of categories you should at least allow nested tracking categories. Another LIMITATION of software thats supposed toe be better than the others!

    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…

    I spend a number of hours each reconciling transfer control accounts, intercompany control accounts, loan accounts etc.

    This functionality should be possible for any account that one chooses, it shouldn't need a separate utility even if it's free.

    Intuit QuickBooks and QuickBooks Desktop have had these functions for years and years.

    Once again, Xero feels it's necessary to spend time and money putting coloured sploshes on the login page rather than anything useful.

    You really need to do this, and urgently. In quickbooks online you can reconcile any account, control accounts / intercompany accounts, anything - in Xero you are trying to stop people making stupid mistakes by restricting everything. Same as possting to AP or AR accounts, in QBO you just get forced to enter a supplier or customer accordingly - in Xero, you are told to eff off.

    Fix this piece of ****, its beyond a joke now!

    Hi everyone, we know this remains a highly important request, and we appreciate the volume of detail you’ve shared around billing, delivery and contact management workflows in this idea.

    As shared in our last update - our team has been progressing the next phase of work needed to bring this more meaningfully into invoicing.

    We know many of you are looking for clearer timing, and while I’m not able to confirm a release date at this stage, I do want to reassure you this remains an active area of work for our product teams.

    We’ll continue to return here with further updates as we move through the next stages. Thanks again for your patience and for continuing to share the workflows that make this so important.

    There arent many other areas that are lacking, but of course there are some. Best to run an AI comparison of features you are looking for, and see what comes out best. In terms of making improvements, they are about the same and very lax in that area - however the US version gets a lot of improvements that then make it here to the UK version.
    One thing that QBO have removed, which is frustrating, is the ability to have Word templates for documents, it used to exist, in much the same way as Xero, but the idiots at Intuit removed it.

    @rhianydd I hate to say it, but YES! QBO allows you have to clients and subclients, subclients can be treated as projects and they have their own records so you can invoice at both levels. You can also invoice for the client and include all of the subclients, its very flexible indeed. Thats why I hate myself for choosing Xero for this client that now finds they cant achieve basic functionality with this piece of **** platform Xero.

    @A/R maybe if we asked them for the ability to change the colours of the swooshes we could get a quicker response? ;)
    All jokes aside, your comment is spot on ... too many valuable and much needed "ideas" on here are just swept aside. Even the UI on Xero reeks of an older application where others are light-years ahead.
    Basic functionality is sub-standard to say the least.

    Maybe that's the cause of the problem, too many people at Xero are paid to say "we're working on it" but nothing ever bloody happens. Shocking state of affairs, and already DEEPLY regretting migrating my client onto Xero.

    Hi community, thanks so much for all the interest we received. The teams interview spots filled up quickly and they are now fully booked.

    Why has this not been done yet? 5 days since my last comment and 4 years since this was first raised.

    Quickbooks Online allows you to set schedules on individual reports, or to combine them as a group of reports by way of management informaton - but with Xero's clunky interface, you have to do it manually!

    Yet another thing that's making me regret siggesting a client switches from Sage Desktop to Quickbooks Online as opposed to Xero - truly shocking!!

    FIRST SUGGESTED ***TWELVE*** YEARS AGO AND YOU HAVENT IMPLEMENTED THIS YET? SHOCKING, VERY SHOCKING. Whoever is making the decisions on this should be fired? This is basic functionality available in just about all other respectable accounting packages, why not Xero? Yet another **** let down!!!!!!

    This is crucial, get it done Xero team otherwise I cant move over more clients to you that can already do this easily on QBO!

    Thanks so much for sharing your feedback on this idea, community. We appreciate that having to manually select attachments on every invoice can feel a little fiddly. We get that you want a smoother workflow, that saves you time.

    As noted by others in the idea, one option for now would be to add standard files, like your terms and conditions, directly to your invoice template. That way, they'll be included automatically when you send out your invoices.

    To confirm how this functionality currently works - this is based on the user and driven by the last invoice that was sent. Where you have files attached, and you had selected to include files as an attachment when emailing the invoice, the next invoice you send with file attachments should have this selected by default.

    A caveat to this is when you are working in incognito mode, or refresh your browser…

    We're interested to understand the interest in being able to add multiple emails to a clients record, for the purposes of setting these up for different purposes.

    It would be great to hear more detailed feedback from our partners on the particular purposes you'd want to set up emails for and how this would help you through Xero's practice tools. Thanks!

    This is really stupid that in current times this STILL cannot be done! I cant even mark a foreign currency invoice as paid it says "Foreign currency not supported" even though currency is enabled and the bill is in the currency

    Why has this not been done? It is ridiculous that you cant show the originating currency!
