use consistent response structures
The addition of reporting a contact's balances was a great addition, however I feel the response structure should be consistent, regardless of balances. Where any balances are $0, this should be reported as $0, instead of being removed. By removing the key, we are left only being able to test for the absence of data, which creates an assumptive logic.
I understand that removing keys for null values might be part of your api design (ie no email address entered doesn't return an empty <EmailAddress>, but technically, a customer always has a balance so there for the Balances data should…

When a contact is created in Xero it is not until after an invoice has been created that it gets converted to a customer (or supplier). Which is expected.
However when the "If-Modified-Since" filter is used on the GET Contacts endpoint where the "If-Modified-Since" date is after the contact is created but before the conatct as made into a supplier (i.e. after the isCustomer or isSuppler flag flips from false to true in the body of the Contact response) then the contact is not returned in the response.
I sugget a change that when a contact is converted to a…

Get address lable for my organization
When I create new delivery address for new PO I am able to specify its lable. However when I try to obtain available addresses from my company settings I cannot find address lable only address type. For all delivery addresses this type is the same: DELIVERY.
We would like to list company addresses the way it is done during Purchase Order creation in Xero. The problem is that API does not send back the "Label" of the addresses (bold text like "Postal" or "Physical"). These labels are very important since they are used to set some meaningful name to the…

Display the AR/AP contact balance in API in both base currency and contact currency
Currently the API only displays the contact balance in base currency and NOT the contact default currency.
This makes it extremely difficult to confirm synchronisation drift between our systems through the current balance.
Please include two currencies in the AR/AP contact balance object.
