  1. Invoices with more than 60 lines will not POST to xero. The request is to large. It would be nice to load the invoice with 30 lines then append 30 more.

  2. I have previously used Xero personal and I have never found anything that I would rather use. I miss it and would love for you to bring it back to all the people who love to be organised but don't own a business.

  4. An awesome feauture would be to automatically update stock on hand in Xero AND Shopify when receiving Purchase Orders. Without this it's not feasible to manage inventory in Xero for a Shopify store.

  7. Would like to be able to access the journal narration through the API. Currently you can just access the line item reference but this requires too much coding effort by our bookkeeper and as such most reference lines are blank. However, every journal/transaction has a narration so would be great to access this.

  8. When invoices are sent to XERO from ProWorkflow, the html characters are showing on the invoices as tags rather than getting rendered properly. Some of our customers who use ProWorkflow and XERO heavily also use the html content in their line item descriptions which obviously causes issues for them as the invoice doesn?t look the same anymore.

    I was wondering whether you guys had any thoughts or plans on how we can send html content in the line items over to XERO without stripping all the html characters and get them displayed properly in XERO?

  9. Currently the "Inventory Item Details" report shows all the sales per item, but very difficult to work with. Can you please incorporate a Slaes for the period column in the "Inventory Items Summary"

  10. For example, creating invoice payments return invoice contact summaries in responses.

    If contact details are required on the client side the result is a subsequent API call to retrieve them.

    In this case the overhead of the subsequent call is greater than the cost of returning the information in the invoice payment response. This issue is compounded due to Xero API's rate limiting on requests.

    An optional parameter 'enableSummaries=false' would be nice.

    I understand that for cases like retrieving multiple invoices that summaries are useful but for single result responses, such as invoice payments the current functionality seems inconsistent. The…

  11. You can already do a Xero to Xero invoice. I would like to link in to other on-line invoice aggregator services via their API and send an invoice to them electronically. I have a couple of multi national clients who refuse to accept invoices that are emailed with PDF attachments. They want me to use their invoice aggregator which either costs me money (if I integrate using their API) or time if I log on to their portal and manually enter each invoice (yeah right!).

  12. My client need to add total discount on entire invoice rather than giving discount on each item.
    This would be great if we have such option.
    Thanks

  13. Currently, you can' t get Journals based on posting date (the Date field in Journal). It should be supported as it is more relevant than the if-modified-since filter. In general, the Journal API should support the where clause.

  14. I need to get all those Journals which involves a Bank account. (i.e. one of its JournalLines has an account of type Bank).

    Note that If I get all journals using Journal API, it is very time consuming. I hope to use the Journal API in such a way so that it only returns those Journal which involve a bank.

  15. When clients have Retail Express and applying the discount on purchases in Retail Express there is no possibility to import the original price and the discount received when doing the import. A solution would be either to have the discount per line or at least under total balance of purchase have a field of "total discount applied" to this purchase...so the original price can be still found. When checking that the imports are correct at present it causes confusion and a lot of going back and forth to find out wether bill had been imported with discount and what the…

  16. I use QWD and would like to see the Management Report exportable as well as more budget reports eg budget per month from budget manager.
    This would allow far more flexibility in building reports and dashboards.

  17. The Xero website notifies you when you are viewing an Invoice that was created by a RepeatingInvoice. There doesn't appear to be a way to get that information from the API.

  18. When I send "<CurrencyCode>usd</CurrencyCode>" to a CAD base ledger (with USD as a valid currency) the invoice currency becomes CAD. But if I change it to "<CurrencyCode>USD</CurrencyCode>" then it works fine. (data is coming from Stripe, which uses lower case).

    Xero should always capitalize the currency code.

  19. We use Spree as our shopping cart, so hooking that up to Xero would have us dancing with joy!
