Add more objects to Zapier
You've already created an app on Zapier, well done. But the app is very limited (Invoices, etc). Please add more object types. If most of your object types were there, we could integrate much easier with Xero. And Xero's technical cred would increase dramatically if the ease of moving Journals, Payments, etc were simply creating new Zaps.

Search Feature
When searching sales or purchase invoices would it be possible to have a drop down box to select if All, Awaiting Payment, Paid etc instead of being in the tab first before selecting search.
I dont know how many times I have entered the search item only to find I am in the wrong tab and have to reenter details in the correct tab very frustrating ... but still forget next time I search
Would be much easier to select this option after search detail is made

add an intercompany loan account
I have a few clients who have a Group of companies, transactions between them are posted through an intercompany loan account, which needs to be reconciled. It would be great if transactions posted to that account appear in a linked company and a check is made to show that the loan accounts balance.

Save Bank Statements in xero
It would be great if there were somewhere within each of the Bank Accounts where we could upload/scan and store Bank Statements within xero as auditors need to see these regardless of whether we say that the account is reconciled.

Payments API HasAttachments
Hi there,
Currently, there is no way to determine via the API if a payment has an attachment. We are able to retrieve any attachments via using the BankTransactions endpoint (using the payment ID).
For completeness, we need to be able to have the HasAttachment attribute accessible when returning a list of payments - the only way to do this currently is to retrieve the BankStatements/ID/Attachments endpoint for EVERY single payment - which is a pretty big use of resources.
Alternatively (a breaking change) - can we either be able to retrieve Payments via the BankTransactions end point. Adding "HasAttachments"…

Emailing invoices should respect the organisational email settings
There is a setting to set the reply email address, however sending an invoice via the api currently doesn't respect this setting, the emailed invoice will still have the user's email address even though the email settings specify a different email address

Make the API invoice email the standard html email not plain text
Currently when sending the invoice email from the API it sends as plain text. Update it to send the standard html email with the green 'Pay Now' button.

Include pagination for inventory items
Currently the GET /Items API method does not support any pagination request parameters.
This implies that we have to get all Items in one API call if we want to read all items, for instance during an initial historical sync.
This is highly inefficient and will lead to issues for Xero accounts having a lot of items.Adding pagination parameters will help to reduce the payload returned by this API method, which I believe to be in the interest of both Xero and the Xero API users ...
Thanks in advance for looking into this.

email to invoice gateway
not sure if it is possible, but what about an email to invoice gateway.
have an email address invoices@xero.com
i can email any invoices i get to that address and it automatically populates a draft invoice in xero, based on the from address of the senderobviously you would need to have a bit of security, like a cryptic email address to send the invoices too, and it would be difficult to parse all invoices formats, but not impossible.
even if it pulled out the generic details of each invoice, eg invoice no, from, date, total, it would save a…

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…

Add SagePay to invoice payment gateway, they are one of the most popular in the UK.
Sagepay is one of the most popular payment gateways used in the UK, it would be a huge benefit to add sagepay as an invoice payment method option in xero.

Allow setting Expected Payment Date on modified invoices
The only way of modifying the Expected Payment Date via the API right now is to remove every payment first, then update the date and reapply the payments. We have customers paying via installments (of up to 30 payments) and it would seem a lot more logical to allow changing the Expected Payment Date.
The reason why the Expected Payment Date is important to us is that we use it for cashflow forecasting.

Return RepeatingInvoiceID with Invoice GET
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.

Send invoices to other accounting systems via their APIs
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!).
