Send <Payments> together with <Invoice>
We invoice just upon payment, so it would be nice to be able to send <Payments> together with <Invoice>, when creating it, so we don't need to do two separate calls for it.

API to set exchange rates
Create and API entry point to set default exchange rates, just like we do on the Settings page.
Rational: here in Poland, we're obliged to use the Polish Central Bank exchange rates on accounting. Having an API for it makes it possible for us the call it once everyday to set the rate for the next day. Without this we're not able to use Xero officially for bookkeeping. (we have to setup the rates for this whole calendar year!)

Specify which account to import FreshBooks entries into
The API sync with FreshBooks currently dumps my FreshBooks transactions into my checking account ledger irrespective of where those funds were actually deposited. This is a serious limitation that needs to be fixed promptly. Most businesses--even small ones--have more than one account. For interest maximization, all deposits at our firm, for example, go into a money market. As cash is needed in checking to cover outgoing money, it's transferred.

Allow invoices to specify tax amounts in a separate currency
UK VAT law requires that invoices present VAT amounts in Sterling, even when the invoice is in a separate currency. As a result, it's possible to have a Euro invoice with Sterling VAT amounts. (See VAT Guide 16.4 and 16.3.1). Obviously when charging the customer, these have to be converted to Euros and the total expressed in Euros, but the business owes VAT in Sterling, not Euros.
Currently it's only possible to specify a single currency per invoice; now, if it were possible to stipulate the exchange rate to be used, that might make matters better, but in general we…
