add Contacts as an element to GET Journals
This would allow much greater financial reporting flexibility. Like Tracking Categories, not all Journals have Contacts. Your new Xero report, P&Ls by Contact, leads me to believe the Xero data structure may support this. Thank you!

I really like Xero - but get frustrated that I have to type each invoice number in the payments schedule -
It would be great if the reference populated into one of the payment fields - ref or Code so the Supplier knows exactly what we have paid for - and allocates our payment as we intended.
The Accredo package did it - all part of package.2 votes -
Allow Invoice only users to use the API
As seen on this link: https://developer.xero.com/faq/permissions#user-permissions , currently only standard users can use the API, however, this makes no sense for my use case, and this is probably the same for other people.
Right now I'm trying to build an app that will automatically create invoices and email them to the contacts, however, I do not want to connect a standard full user to my application, as the returned access token will have full access to all my banking account statements whereas all I need I to create a Sales Invoice, which could be done with a "Sales Invoice only"…

Link Projects to Invoice Line Items
Currently its impossible to link invoice items (revenue) to projects using the Accounting API. Furthermore, its impossible to modify invoices that have line items that have been linked to projects using the web UI.
This is a show stopper for us who have automated billing solutions and want to track the profitability of those projects within Xero. It's heartbreaking to have to do this outside of Xero.
Please make it possible for us to link invoice line items to Projects in order to use Xero as our Billing engine for invoices and invoice items that are generated outside of Xero…

Allow querying the MFA state for users via the API
It's great that xero supports MFA and I would like to query which users have MFA enabled (or more importantly which don't) and import into our SOC so we can ensure that all accounts are protected.
Given how big a target a finance platform like Xero is for business email compromise and phishing scenarios and how critical MFA is in preventing these attacks - being able to collect this information and easily catch unprotected accounts is very useful.

Populate the reference field on Journals API with bills reference fields
For all bill journals retrieved through the GET Journals API, the reference field is blank. There is a reference field on bills. It would be great if they could be written to the journals table and exposed through the API

Ledger for particular account shows corresponding Accounts
Existing General ledger report gives understanding Summary/detailed Dr and Cr amounts but it does not tell you which Accounts are involved in transactions. Ability to create Summary Ledger for particular Account that shows correspondence with Accounts according recorded transactions. It is very useful to find mistakes if your allocations were wrong. For example, when you created bill and mistakenly choose wrong GST type or expense Account. Another good reason for monthly/quarterly reconciliation AR/AP. For example, creating AR ledger you will see aggregate or detailed amounts of Bank/Cash accounts, GST and Customer deposits. If you made mistake when you reconcile bank…

return the lines array in the CreditNotes GET using WHERE query
When using the CreditNote API. A get using the CreditNoteID returns the line array, but when you use a WHERE clause it does not return the lines array. Having said that, it seems to be intermittent.
Yesterday I was able to do both these with the same ID:
a) GET /CreditNotes/{id}
b) GET /CreditNotes?Where=CreditNoteID={id}
And they both returned the lines[] array.Today, only (a) works to return the lines[] array.

Implement filters available from front end
Incorporate the filters for outlet and revenue type and other available segmentations.
Noted that Xero allows the user to configure accounts by 2 segmentations: seg1 and seg2.
For example, trial balance filtered by seg1 and seg2.
Alternatively, if the output can show information of seg1 ns seg2 for each transaction or account will also do.

longer SKU Number field
Your system needs to support longer SKU's if you plan to continue working with the KATANA platform and Shopify they do not have a hard SKU limit and because of this we are unable to import a number of the orders we import from Shopify into Katana... and this requires us to do a work around to create a order/invoice in your system...

... make transaction data available via the API
It appears that there are two key things missing from the current version of the Xero API:
The Tables part of the API does not currently have a connection to the Nominal Ledger (Account) Transactions
The Reports part of the API connects to several of the standard reports, but doesn’t connect to the Account Transactions report.
Either of these would allow a full list of transactions to be accessed via the API.
