  1. Contact search should be case insensitive via API

    While creating the sales invoice via API, usually we check if the contact is already created or not, to search the contact the name/keyword must be used in the same case that is available on Xero, if its different then it will not search.

  3. EU Country field

    Be able to update the EU Country field via the API. This is required and seems very strange to be left out of the API.

  4. Approved Invoices:: Should have the facility to "Revert it back to draft"

    Once an invoice is approved, it should have the facility to "revert it back to draft"

    It is because of the reason that mostly, my client ask me to approve the invoice and then says that it's not yet approved and then i don't have the facility, ultimately it is showing in our accounts that an overdue invoice is available, which is actually not yet approved.

    Xero should facilitate us in such a way.

    Thanks
    Hassan

  5. be able to retrieve account transactions via the api.

    Provide an API to retrieve the transactions of an account. (e.g. something like this Profit & Loss report-> click on the YTD value of an account)

  7. Enter budgets via the API. Both historical and current.

    This would allow us to build tools to do bulk budget exports for multiple periods from our current system. (I think that budgets import might be coming through the user interface anyway, in which case this isn't really needed).

  8. Be able to retrieve & e-mail statements to receivable accounts via the API

    E-mailing updates to receivable accounts about their payments via the API would be very useful. Via the web interface, this is possible by sending a statement. API request is to be able to retrieve a statement report and email it via the API

  11. Increase rate limit (or allow details to be included in invoices, etc)

    This is especially important for an initial sync of a new customer with our product as we need every invoice in the database (including the PDFs, which we are happy to trickle into the system over time).
