Allow employees to enter start and finish times into timesheets
In our industry there are penalty rates before/after certain times and days, and employees shouldnt be responsible for working out which pay item they are to be paid.
We also have a lot of junior staff who would have no clue and they just need to enter their start time, break time and finish time and then allow the payroll officer to convert this into which rates apply.
Add-ons are way too expensive on top of the cost of Xero, especially when you have more than 10 employees.
This would also save a lot of double entering (timebooks, then xero)…

Add a section under employee details for emergency contacts.
Each employee should have at least ONE emergency contact listed for work emergencies. I think in the employee personal details section there should be an area for us to add an emergency contact. At the moment, should anything happen to a staff member at work, there is no emergency contact details in Xero so that we can notify our staff's next of kin. I think it is important (and respectful on behalf of our business) to be able to let loved ones know when a work accident or emergency has happened.

The screen should return to the report you were looking at after you edit a transaction instead of having to start over every time.
As a bookkeeper I need to be able to pull a report and edit transactions from there. However, every time I edit and save a transaction it brings me back to the dashboard instead of the report I was looking at and I have to start from the beginning to re-pull the report I was looking at. What should be a one step fix is now a 5 step process.

Add an OData interface to query live transaction data directly from Microsoft Excel
Microsoft Excel is an essential tool for all accountants. It can be easily configured to consume an OData data source. OData is a standardized protocol for creating restful data APIs. This XML-based protocol supports the ability to create filtered data streams. By exposing live transaction data through a secured, well-engineered OData API, you will be adding massive value to your customers accounting data. OData combined with Excel Pivot Tables and PowerPivot creates an incredibly potent analysis and reporting tool. All your customers already own Excel. PowerPivot is a free add-in from Microsoft. All that's needed is an OData API and…
1 voteWe have no plans to support OData, preferring to stick with our technology agnostic web services API with OAuth authentication.
There are however, a number of commercial add-ons available using our API, providing Excel integration:

give the option for cashbook clients (that are cash coding) to add accounts to the chart of accounts - not just edit bank accounts
Giving the option for clients that have limited access to the partner edition GST or non GST cashbook, that have "cash coding" access - the ability to add accounts to the chart. At the moment clients can only add or delete bank accounts. Some clients I wouldn't want to give this option to, but for other clients we would and don't want to have to keep adding them for them.

For an api call to log out
Xero is alive for 30 minutes. For a scenario if a user successfuuly logs in by an application and logs out from the app. Another user comes in with same app and log in and try to connect to xero, he will be in the previous users account.
Thus for every "connect to xero" if there is an api to log out of the user then for every "connect to xero" the user should give their login credentials to avoid this situtation

The ability to include all open invoices with the statement...
This can either be in the same PDF, or links within the statement PDF. This would avoid asking us for copy invoices, even though they have been sent to them...

Make it possible to back up and restore xero at any point
Xero makes it very difficult to undo transactions and postings if they have been done incorrectly. Could you make it so before handing xero over to clients you could take a back up of the accounts which you could then restore if nessacery and overwrite any mistakes made.
Thanks
Jasmine

Add pay now button for statements sent via email
If a customer wants to settle more than one invoice they have to view individual invoices and enter payment details each time - this method is onerous for customers.
It is preferable to send a statement and allow the customer to "pay now" on the statement balance due - In effect bulk settling invoices.

create Purchase Order reports
Currently there is no way to report on the status of purchase orders, or details of what has been ordered. I think we should have a basic report exportable to excel with the following headings:
PO number,
supplier,
details of items on order,
date raised,
date due,
amount,
total,
gst,
grand total,
status,
person who created the PO.1 voteAs this forum is for developer API functionality requests and yours relates to something that would need to happen in the main application, I’m afraid we have to decline this suggestion, but don’t take it personally – we would still love to see you make your suggestion in the Xero Community forum: https://community.xero.com/business/

make it easy for other 3rd party payroll companies to import their GL report to update Xero
You have a short list of payroll companies who can already interface with Xero accounting software, but I cannot find the format a general ledger needs to be in, in order to update the GL in Xero.
It needs to be easier to become one of those payroll companies, or you need to provide an import function and provide an import spec sheet.
1 voteXero provides an API which is free for developers to interface to, and our recommended way of connecting applications.
We even have a guide on how payroll applications can integrate with Xero: http://developer.xero.com/documentation/api-guides/how-to-integrate-my-payroll-system-with-xero/ and we are more than happy to promote applications that do: http://developer.xero.com/partner/.
