Display the AR/AP contact balance in API in both base currency and contact currency
Currently the API only displays the contact balance in base currency and NOT the contact default currency.
This makes it extremely difficult to confirm synchronisation drift between our systems through the current balance.
Please include two currencies in the AR/AP contact balance object.

Add ability to delete a ContactGroup
I can create a new ContactGroup through the API yet I cannot delete that group?
The documentation states "The DELETE method is used to remove a contact from a contact group or remove all contacts from a contact group."
Neither of which I want. I want to remove the entire ContactGroup from existing.

UpdatedDateUTC to be updated on Contacts when a Contact Group is modified
When a contact has been added or removed from a group, or when a group is changed the UpdatedDateUTC on the contact should also be change to reflect this.

Expose Additional Contacts - First Name, Last Name, Email address
Can we please have the ability to view all additional contacts, first name, last name and email address, if we use the GET request to pull ALL contacts.
At the moment this is only viewable, by looking up individual contacts which can quickly use up API calls which I need for the other applications of my web app.

Fix the Contact creation API to fail when PUT-ing a duplicate contact that has been archived
Currently (Jan 2016, API 2.0) using the API to PUT a new contact fails when its email is in use by an existing contact - as would be expected.
However, if the contact that has the duplicate is archived, the PUT will SUCCEED, returning a new contact ID and everything. However, the new contact will not actually be added. This can be done repeatedly, each time "generating" a new contact ID.
Given this, there is no way to ensure that a given contact has been added via the API before attempting to, for example, create a new Invoice via the…

New Feature - Contacts Reform
• Contacts/Project Dashboard - The Contacts page could be improved with a dashboard of all relevant data for that Contact such as the P&L for the client and their projects. I would also like to see a Statement feature detailing all invoices and payments in journal display i.e. account debits and credits, filtered either by Contact and/or Projects.
• Sales Pipeline – A New Leads/Tenders/Quotes feature would allow the Sales team to add details for new clients and projects. Unsuccessful New Leads could be demoted to Old Bids which would keep the contact, bid and project details on the system.…

Be Able To Get Customer Credit Rating Through The API
Given that credit ratings can now be shown for customers in the main application I would like to suggest that the credit rating, even as a number or as a descriptor (matching the rating gauge in the main interface, be made available through the API in the contact payload data so that when viewing customer data through the API the credit rating can be seen as well.

Different Contacts under the one company for example - Sales, Purchasing, Accounts Payable, Accounts receivable and the General Manager..
It is frustrating when i send statements or invoices and i have to go in and individually delete the sales emails and other general contact details. I have them all ticked to include in emails though as I need to send my invoices to accounts payable and the salesman but statements go to another accounts person . When we purchase from the same customer we have to send to accounts receivable. It would be great to have different Contacts so when i click send statements i dont have to delete the rest of the contacts.

include the Group ID field in the Clients API method for Xero Practice Manager
This is more for the WorkflowMax/Practice Manager API but as I can't seem to find a community site for that product I'm posting here. It seems like an oversight to not include the group ID. Can this be added please.

add the ability to hide empty fields for clients
When in the Client view, it would be helpful if you could opt to only show fields containing data.
With the ability to enter a large variety of data fields, the page is quite long, however, for many clients a limited number of fields actually contain data.
If the view could be minimised to only show the fields that actually contain data, the page would be shorter and easier to see the information at a glance without the need to scroll through the page.1 vote -
Toggle Notifications via API
Provide ability to turn off invoice reminder notifications for specific customers via the API.
Failing this, provide a way to set up notification rules so certain patterns of customers aren't notified of follow ups.

Can we have the old feature of the A-Z tabs at the top when searching for contacts?
We used to have A-Z tabs on the top of the window to enable us to search for a contact. Could this feature be re-enabled as currently we cannot browse the contacts - we have to type in a name.

reminder
Optimise the collection process by having an automatic 'reminder' date (day/week) or a manual action to remind you to follow up outstanding account for payment. A calendar format to set action / follow update. Perhaps integrate with MS Outlook to include email attachments for follow up action.
