Remove validation to allow 0 value spend money transactions on bank account to move money between accounts
Currently it's possible to add a 0 value transaction on a bank account using the web interface by clicking "New Transaction" selecting "spend money" then adding a positive sum to one account and a negative sum to another account.
When attempting this with the API you get a validation error "The Total for this document must be greater than zero".
This is a simple request to remove the additional validation on the API to allow this transaction to be added (like you can in the web interface).
Something similar can be achieved with a manual journal, however these don't support…

Update Repeating invoices via the API
It's great that we can create and delete repeating invoices via the API, but we also need the ability to update them, especially options such as ApprovedForSending, Next Invoice Date, and Due Date.

The API doesn't currently offer access to product attachments. This would be useful in our case.

allow filtering in reports at the group level
A U.S. nonprofit's statement of activities groups expenses by activity, not by account. It would be helpful to be able to add an account to a blank report more than once so the account can appear under different groups, and to be able to apply a filter to each group by one or more tracking categories. This would allow us to create a report using the Blank Report template that mimics the statement of activities.

Add an 'IN' operator to WHERE filter, to use a list
I've previously used ODATA when filtering requests - e.g. MYOB.
It provides an 'IN' operator for the filter, so you can request using a list of items.
e.g. ?where=Code IN ('1234','1245','1236','1237','1238')
Obviously, this translates directly to the common SQL clause - WHERE column_name IN (value1, value2, vlaue3, etc)
Thus avoiding the need for multiple request, or paging an ALL accounts request and then filtering locally.

add the option to send a idempotency key with requests to update or change resources
For example any network, process issues etc may cause a request to create an invoice (or other resource) to occur, but the response to never be recorded. Potentially causing the process to retry this action.
One way is to add a idempotency key which Stripe for example does nicely here: https://stripe.com/docs/api/idempotent_requests
Another way would be to have a non consumer facing external ID, for both the resource and lineitems that can be set by the application and then check for its existence later. Or allow the application to set the UUIDs for these resources
For something as accurate as accounting,…

Increase the number of uncertified apps you can link to Xero, 2 is very limiting!
We aren't able to connect a 3rd party uncertified app due to already being at the limit of 2. This poses quite an issue for us!

include cost of sales on invoices
A customer of ours need to pull Invoices via the Xero API and are particularly interested in the COGS value of sales in order to calculate a Gross Profit value.
Unfortunately, that value does not appear in the Invoices endpoint.
I ran some tests where i posted a sale, then posted a purchase with items with a higher purchase price, then edit the sale and increase the quantity.
I then checked journals and i could see a reversal jounral for the COGS that used the old COGS value, and a reposting using the new COGS value.
This implies the data…

Add an API endpoint for starting and stopping project timers, and getting the current time
There are currently endpoints for adding time logging to Xero, but not for interacting with the running timers.
It would be really helpful to be able to do this, so that I (and others) could have external tools (in my case a StreamDeck) able to start and stop timers.
I would also like to be able to request information on what the timer is currently on in order to get live feedback.

enable creation of invoices from accepted quotes via API
Once a quote has been ACCEPTED it would be very useful to then turn this into an Invoice via the API, as per the manual user task of pressing the "Create Invoice" in the Xero web portal.

Send Remittance Advice via API
I would love to be able to send a remittance advice via API. There are a couple of scenarios where this is would be useful:
1. Monitoring the bank feed for reconciled payments and sending the Remittance ass appropriate
2. Generating a payment file from a list of invoices that are being paid and sending the remittance as appropriate1 vote -
include the optionID in the "Get budgets" operation
According to the developer reference here https://developer.xero.com/documentation/api/accounting/budgets
The get budgets operation should include both the tracking category option name and ID.Currently, only the name comes through which means we are forced to name match unless we validate the names via a seperate API call before trusting that budgets are for specific options.
This method we are forced to use does not account for name collisions.

budget upload to Xero API
It would be great to have an budget upload API.
I'm using G-Accon to push data in Xero, it would be great to be able to push budgets too.
Currently, Xero's budget manager is a bit rigid in its layout. However with G-Accon I could use a custom layout, or for example narrow down for a departmental budget, and then push to Xero.2 votes -

Provide a start and end date for budgets in the "Get Budgets" operation
We are currently implementing a feature where we bring in divisional budgets.
The companies we import into our product have data for a specific date range and we wish to filter out budgets for selection that do not have a date range that overlaps with the rest of the company data.
Without the ability to do this our users will have to pick from any budget that is filtered by a tracking category option and if they choose one that doesn't overlap we will have to either
- not connect the invalid budget in the first place and provide feedback as…

Ability to configure the email (to, subject & message) when creating repeating invoices via the API
It's great to see that creating and deleting repeating invoices is now available in the API. However, there was one crucial thing that was missed: There is no ability to create/define the EMAIL MESSAGE that gets sent with the repeating invoice.
The documentation mentions “You can use the API to trigger the email of an approved repeating sales invoice out of Xero by setting the ApprovedForSending to true and the status to AUTHORISED.”
The API has the fields SendCopy, MarkAsSent and IncludePDF, but there is no ability to define the actual content of the email.
This has somehow been missed.

Create more granular accounting scopes (eg: Sales - Invoice only)
Right now there is a very wide range of APIs wrapped up in the "accounting.transactions" scope, with no way to provide more granular access within these APIs (https://developer.xero.com/documentation/guides/oauth2/scopes#organisation-scopes).
This means that it's not possible to grant access to something quite narrow without also granting access to other things that are often not needed. For example, you cannot grant permission to creating/manipulating Sales Invoices without also giving access to all Bank Transactions at the same time.
This problem is perhaps accentuated for Custom Connections, which are designed to be used for "in house" integrations, as ALL developers with access…
