Implement support for the reference field in the new Overpayment and Prepayment Endpoints
The addition of Overpayment and Prepayment endpoints, for us is still not functional with the addition of the reference field in these. Without this there is no robust way to save a prepayment at one point in time, then be able to look this prepayment up later to be used for allocation purposes.
Same problem for Overpayments.
Hope this can be added very soon as we are looking forward to the XERO api having proper Prepayment support.

fix bug - universal search for numbers ending in "00" eg "2300"
when using the universal search, the search never finds invoices or bills ending in 00. For example search for invopice number "2300" this will return zero results. If the search is conducted from within the Sales search the invoice can be found.
This issue also relates to Purchase orders and bills ending in 00

Taxable payments report lodgement through Xero Tax
Recently lodgement of payment summaries through Xero Tax became available. You can also manually create these instead of handwriting the ATO forms which has been fantastic so far for our firm. It would be much appreciated if this was also done for the annual taxable payments report for the building and construction industry for tax clients who do not use Xero software.

Open up the Pay Run (Global) to the API
It is currently not possible to get/post/push data related to the payrun for the global edition. This limits integration with systems who can help with the administration of the payroll.

Cash Flow Forecast
I would like to be able to do a monthly cash flow projection. I would start with the cash flow from the past 12 months. I would present the average for each line item and give the forecaster the option to increase or decrease the figure for the coming 3 months. It would need some work to break out the revenue figure by account and to give a way to put in a projection for accounts or opportunities yet to be won by the sales team.

Filter reconciliation to show only monies received
When one is a bit behind on the reconciliations I think it would be useful to be able to filter the statement lines which need to be reconciled to show monies received only so that invoices can be quickly reconciled and overdue invoices sent off to clients. This would save trawling through pages of statement lines or searching payments in online banking then searching for that transaction among the reconciliation pages

expose organization details via API
A application that I am working with needs organizational details after connecting to xero, Most of the info we need is available, but several fields exist in the Organization that are not yet exposed via API
Can we get APIs exposed for Description and Email Address?
Also, logo might be nice too if possible.

Custom IDs
Add a custom ID for all Objects on Xero.
We're building a system to manage and sync data across multiple platforms, and we're having many issues keep data in sync with bulk inserts and writing back to our own IDs. For example when bulk inserting payments we cannot match them to the payments on the system as there is no unique number we can pass through and no other field is reliable. Due to the API rate limits we're forced to use Bulk inserts so we cannot update on an individual basis.

Ability to store previous company names
sometime if one person in the office is looking for a particular company by its previous name, this happens from time to time and the name has already been changed in WFM or Xero then you have to switch to Companies office to find out the new name.....
if you had something similar to companies office where you could have a previous name list so that when you search, if you search an old name it will still bring up the client.
also some of our clients use an alias as to avoid public actually knowing their real name, most…

Bring back Xero Personal
I have previously used Xero personal and I have never found anything that I would rather use. I miss it and would love for you to bring it back to all the people who love to be organised but don't own a business.

Xero Workpapers API
Xero now has an integrated Workpapers application (http://www.xero.com/workpapers). This is a placeholder to track requests and potential use cases so we can evaluate development of this feature.

Supply <Attachments> elements in standard endpoints when `page` is given
Currently, it seems that you need to make a separate call to get <Attachments>. Being able to get this supplied on the standard invoices/bank transactions/manual journals/credit notes endpoints when
pageis given would help lower the number of API calls without much increasing the amount of data sent.6 votes -

API to set exchange rates
Create and API entry point to set default exchange rates, just like we do on the Settings page.
Rational: here in Poland, we're obliged to use the Polish Central Bank exchange rates on accounting. Having an API for it makes it possible for us the call it once everyday to set the rate for the next day. Without this we're not able to use Xero officially for bookkeeping. (we have to setup the rates for this whole calendar year!)
