We make extensive use of the ContactNumber field for invoicing.
Can Invoice listing show ContactNumber field next to contact name for each invoice to help with updating/locating drafts?

be an aggregator for bank transactions in New Zealand
This is a challenge for SaaS financial apps in New Zealand, both for small business and personal finance. Since Xero already integrates with banks, it would be great to be able to procure transactions through you via a standardised API :-)

calculate exchange rate automatically for foreign payments
Currently when entering a payment for an invoice in a foreign currency I need to enter the exchange rate. Generally I have to final AUD value and the final USD value, so would prefer the fx rate is calculated automatically.
In addition, it seems the fx rate has limited precision; I end up needing to put in manual adjustments when reconciling which is also a pain.

put print/email and other options buttons on the bottom of lists as well - convenience
If you go into invoices and tick a bunch to print, you have to scroll back to the top again to hit print. If you are doing individual invoices, this can be annoying and time could be saved simply if the buttons were on the bottom as well.

Full Account details must be available with Invoice record
When GET invoice called using API, we get only ContactId and Contact Name. Here full contact details must be available so that if contact is not available in local database we can insert new one.

Cash Sale e-commerce
Where is the API for a cash sale? ie. a paid up in full sale made online e-commerce in realtime, do you have to raise an invoice against a customer called Cash Sale? NZ delivery addresses have GST inclusive, and Offshore addresses are GST zero rate. will the api look at the country field and do this for you?

Remove populated FullyPaidOnDate after payment is reversed
If a payment is applied to an invoice the FullyPaidOnDate is populated correctly and appears through the API.
However, when a payment is reversed on a previously fully paid invoice, the FullyPaidOnDate will not be removed from the XML result through the API, regardless of the fact that the invoice is not fully paid.

Thanks for the suggestion!
Unfortunately we have no current plans to provide a “Surrender to MYOB” API function! -
Enable edit Tax code or transaction amount
Changing posted account is good, but to change date, Tax Code or amount required delete transaction and re-enter it.
1 voteAssuming this refers to Invoices, we have no plans to change what you can edit on approved invoices with payments applied as this forms part of the main application audit trail.

Provide api functions to generate reports.
I find the reports available in xero very minimal, especially compared to those my accountant are used to from Simply Accounting. Consequently, I wish there were an API I could use to generate my own reports rather than hope that the xero team will implement the exact report that my accountant is requesting.
13 votesSince this request has been opened a lot of extra functionality has been provided, including reports by tracking for P&L and balance sheet: http://developer.xero.com/documentation/api/reports/
There are still a number of features we could improve on, and a number of these exist as distinct feature requests in this forum. We suggest adding your votes to those requests so we can close out this generic feature request which is difficult to define/act on.

Credit Card payment API
Store encrypted credit cards for customers and be able to initiate (through the invoice API) credit card payment via any credit card processor's API. Paypal Web Payments Pro would be good out of the box but ideally would be set up to work with most standard APIs.
50 votesI think it is a good idea to close this suggestion out as it is not a direction we wish to take for now. Over the next 2 quarters we will be looking to deliver improvements within the application in terms of development of online invoicing and supporting more payment processors, but a credit card payment API is not something we will be looking to do within a 0-3 year timeframe, so declining this suggestion.

email to invoice gateway
not sure if it is possible, but what about an email to invoice gateway.
have an email address invoices@xero.com
i can email any invoices i get to that address and it automatically populates a draft invoice in xero, based on the from address of the senderobviously you would need to have a bit of security, like a cryptic email address to send the invoices too, and it would be difficult to parse all invoices formats, but not impossible.
even if it pulled out the generic details of each invoice, eg invoice no, from, date, total, it would save a…

make Xero contacts available over LDAP
Xero could export contacts via LDAP for integration with VOIP caller ID, email addressbooks and access control systems.
2 votesWhile I think it is a cool idea, it is not our model to provide specific technology interfaces like LDAP – it should be quite straightforward to connect to our API, return contacts in XML, and then make them available over LDAP with your own code.

Could Xero grab a RSS feed periodically to enter invoices
Rather than having a system push data to Xero , Xero could be set to subscribe to an RSS feed that is in the correct format to add invoices.

Enhance endpoints such as Invoices to allow filtering on LineItems sub fields
For performance purposes and to keep the amount of data in transit down, it would be good to enhance the Invoices and other endpoints to allowing filtering on LineItems.
For instanced, AccountCode, ItemCode or TrackingCategories.
This will allow devs to query a smaller subset rather than pull all invoices.

Unable to use the additional tax rates with the api
When new tax rates is added to xero they are not exposed via the api. Only the standard codes can be used. Some clients add special rates or compound tax rates and they cannot be used
0 votesHey Henzard,
I’m not sure what you meant here. All tax rates are exposed via the API and can be used on transactions.
If there’s a particular bug you’ve found please let us know at api@xero.com

Allow the use of Reference or InvoiceNumber on Invoices endpoint for AP invoices
Currently you have to use the InvoiceNumber element and the Reference element is ignored.
