  1. incorporate LawPay into your payment services options

    Many lawyers cannot use just any Merchant Services provider, but Law Pay provides the necessary features for firms. It would be great if you could partner with them as Clio does.

  3. Add the ability to filter by Updated Date on Files API

    This should be similar to the Modified After parameter for invoice requests. The UpdatedDateUTC field is available int the body of the file response and users would like the ability to filter on this.

    This is in lieu of webhooks notifying users of the file API of changes, which is a separate requested feature.

  4. Expose Check Number(s) to API

    Today, we use another system for writting checks and we need to add the check information to Xero.

    The API allows us to create an invoice for the check and then upload the invoice. However, the API does not allow us to associate a bank account and then check number with the payment of the invoice.

    I know that there is some reason that this the case. There could be an instance where a user tries to associate a previously used check number to the invoice payment. If Xero were to throw a blanket error (eg, "Some of the transactions…

  7. Apply Branding Theme by name

    Currently only way to add a Branding Theme to an invoice via API is by specifying the BrandingThemeID parameter.
    This is rather impractical as BrandingThemeID has to be unique across all of Xero, so if you hardcode the ID for your real Xero organization, when you go to try something with your demo organization, this will fail as ID is not the same, even if the name is.

    On the other had Xero already forces you to have unique names for your branding themes, but these are supposedly only unique within your organization, so you could have a Branding Theme…

  9. 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.

  12. 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.

  14. Provide LineItemId on Invoice PUT

    Recently Xero started surfacing the LineItemId for Invoice line items. This is a great initiative. However, to take full advantage of the LineItemId GUID's, we need the ability to send our unique LineItemId's on a PUT.

    Assuming that we could to specify our LineItemId (and that it would be contained in the Xero Response) we would then have the certainty required to associate the Xero LineItemId response with our LineItemId's.

    This feature enhancement is critical as our invoices always have multiple LineItems, often with the same quantity and Amounts.

    We need a way to ensure we are able to match…

  15. Make Purchase Order contacts work the same as Invoice contacts

    Keeping with continuity, make a purchase order contact the same as a contact via an invoice or credit note, meaning the Xero API automatically matches them to the Name field or adds them if it can't find them.

    Currently we must upload an address book and then link the contact using the ContactID or ContactNumber for Purchase Orders.

    Why have one way of doing something, then another for something else?

  17. When entering a bill, could there be an option included to repeat certain information on the next entry?

    This feature requests really applies to Bill entry. Is it possible to include a feature where there is an option to re-enter a new bill to the same supplier and where the date previously entered will automatically repeat? This would make data entry quite a bit quicker.

  18. 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.
