  1. Get Xero Projects Report using API

    Hi,
    We can get and customize Xero projects reports by using API. But unfortunately, Xero reports API for projects is not available. Can you please add this API to your system.
    Thanks

  2. Multi-currency Bank Transfers

    Currently, if I try and send a Bank Transfer through the APIs between 2 accounts with different currencies, I get an error response with the message:

    "Multi currency Bank Transfers are not currently supported"

    There is a field for the "CurrencyRate" in the documentation for GET, however, setting this for a PUT call, results in the same error message.

    It's possible to do this through the UI as a user, it should also be possible to do this through the APIs.

  3. Expose Additional Contacts - First Name, Last Name, Email address

    Can we please have the ability to view all additional contacts, first name, last name and email address, if we use the GET request to pull ALL contacts.

    At the moment this is only viewable, by looking up individual contacts which can quickly use up API calls which I need for the other applications of my web app.

  4. CreditNotes: Add GET filter by CreditNoteNumbers Similar to Invoices functionality

    Invoices has a filter of InvoiceNumbers. But this functionality is missing from Credit Notes even though Credit Notes are basically a negitive invoice. We need to be able to query for the status and existence of Credit Notes but keep hitting our API rate limit. We are using an WHERE OR statement but it's slow and we cannot check more than a few credit notes at a time.

  5. Add current assets register

    Similar to the fixed assets tool, we need a way of amortising prepaid things like yearly software subscriptions
    A system similar to the fixed assets register depreciation tool, a current assets register could automatically track and consume prepayments according to a defined schedule

  7. Webhook payload update to decrease API calls

    We use Xero Invoice Webhook to create the electronic invoices needed to comply with Argentina tax laws.

    We have discovered some updates that could be made to the invoice webhook in order to dramatically decrease the API calls we send to Xero (to get the invoices details).I think this updates will also benefit the implementation of e-invoice in USA, AU and NZ.

    The two updates are very simple. Just add to the invoice webhook payload the following data:
    1 -invoice type (in order to avoid API call for bills)
    2- nvoice status (in order to avoid API calls for draft…

  10. Email stopped coming in Organisation Payload and broke my Integration

    This is not a suggestion is a petition.

    The payload of the organisation used to bring the email set up in the organisation itself, until 1 week ago that broke my integration,
    My integration serves invoices to the Costa Rican Government IRS and is broken at the moment, had to set up a default/dummy email on the part of the invoice that says who emits the Invoice and there will be issues with people not accepting Invoices due to the default email.

    The customers of my customer will get their Invoices not accepted and those are >10k Invoices.

    My customer…

  11. User Login History

    Looking to export User Login History - either from a practice point or from the Xero Organisation point - you can find this information in Settings > Users > Login History, but I can't find a way to export via API.

  12. Migrate the Pay Run API from Payrolls

    With the Payrolls functionality being deprecated, the Pay Run https://developer.xero.com/documentation/payroll-api-us/pay-runs API will also be deprecated. By our understanding, this functionality, will still be available via the web UI ("Business > Pay Run"). Maintaining this subset of functionality after the overall Payroll deprecation would be useful for tools such as importers of 3rd Party payroll details.

  13. Xero datya for regulatory reporting

    We use Xero as our main accounting system. Every month we have to produce a number of reports for the regulator. In order to do this, we need access to the account balances, debits and credits as they need to be aggregated and for various calculations such as yield and cost of funds. None of the API's provide this information and we have resort manually download various reports in excel format and then use these as input to our process.

    Adding the debits and credits to the Accounts API would be perfect and allow us to automate our processes.

  14. Batch payment API by InvoiceNumber instead of InvoiceID

    Thanks for the current batch payment API. it works with InvoiceID.

    Can you please update this API by allowing to use the InvoiceNumber instead of InvoiceID.

    The InvoiceNumber is much more user-friendly and actually used by accountants instead of the long ID, that needs an extra lookup.

    Can you please let us know when can you update it?

    For example:
    <Payments>
    <Payment>
    <Invoice>

    <InvoiceNumber>ORC1039</InvoiceNumber>
    </Invoice>
    <Reference>ggg</Reference>
    <Amount>10.00</Amount>
    </Payment>

  18. Use F6 to copy down line above as Sage does. Would save so much time when entering invoices

    Can you please add a feature similar to Sage that copies the cell data above when pressing F6. Great for entering sales and purchase invoices rather than having to select from drop-down lists etc - would save so much time. ie, descriptions and our specific analysis cells.

  19. Bank rules in the API

    Please allow me to list, get, post, and delete bank rules in the API. We manage several Organizations and we're copying around these rules by hand right now. It's annoying, expensive, and prone to mistakes. I'd LOVE to just write a script to do it.

  20. API Health Check

    With Microservices now being all the rage, applications consuming Xero APIs need to be able to deal with their availability/non-availability. A "health-check" similar to the Java Microprofile Health service (see https://github.com/eclipse/microprofile-health) would support to enabling/disablng functionality related to Xero APIs based on the result these "health-checks". As a result user interfaces could enable or suppress functionality that requires the use of Xero APIs depending on these health-checks.
