    We have released the ability to attach files to AP invoices today: http://blog.xero.com/developer/v2-release-notes/

    There have been some comments about adding attachments to other documents in Xero. For now, only receipts and AP invoices are supported as in the main application, but any changes to this in the main application, we will work to reflect in the API.

    Any questions about using the attachment functionality, feel free to ask a question in our forum: https://community.xero.com/developer/

    Thanks

  3. The system I use for generating invoices calculates tax on the subtotal rather than each line as Xero does. Because Xero applies rounding to 2dp on each line items tax total then sometimes the total tax does not match my system. I need to be able to enter invoices so the totals match my system

  4. I mean, it's only the fastest growing and one of the most widely used ecommerce softwares available today. Many people on the Magento forums have been asking for a solution to accounting and Xero would be perfect. (I know that there is already a company that created an integrator, but they charge a monthly fee! It's just one more unnecessary monthly expense)

  6. Please considering providing response types in JSON as JSON is much easier to process in PHP. Please consider doing this but letting us append an extension to the URL, i.e.

    https://api.xero.com/api.xro/2.0/Accounts.json
    https://api.xero.com/api.xro/2.0/Accounts.xml
    https://api.xero.com/api.xro/2.0/Accounts (defaults to xml)

    This approach would let you support other response types too.

  7. Currently no schemas exist on the developer release of the Xero REST services. Many languages provide useful tools for XML serialization that require a schema. Providing a schema will allow developers to integrate with Xero quickly, as well as ensure that the data format is consistent.

  10. Usually my quotes and Tax invoices have different information. In the quotes is always useful to include some basic terms. In the Tax invoice only payment info.

    Every time I need to send a quote I need to change the invoice settings which is time consuming.

  12. there are some situations where it's useful to add a note to an invoice that's include in the invoice PDF. e.g a message about the reverse charge VAT treatment for EC customers. I would guess there's more exceptions like this where a note would be useful.

  13. HSBC is the only bank that allows us to have bank accounts in multiple countries without needing to register a company in multiple countries. This feature is much better than just having a multi currency account as it reduces cheque clearing time by up to 90 days, and is possibly something that your other customers might be interested in if they are dealing in multi currency. My laziness requests auto statement downloads please for all types of accounts.

  14. there seems to be a growing number of conversations happening in user voice, perhaps a forum would be a more worthwhile for discussions. then others can learn from the discussions posted here, and post code samples etc

  15. Allow a oauth_callback URL to be specified for each call to authenticate rather than a single URL location for the entire application.

  16. In the app you can override the currency rate with your own. Would be great to do this with invoices generated via the API as I get my rates from another provider (ie. not XE)

  20. It would be great to have access to Xero that is useful for web applications and server processes - as described in the release notes :)
