  4. return the lines array in the CreditNotes GET using WHERE query

    When using the CreditNote API. A get using the CreditNoteID returns the line array, but when you use a WHERE clause it does not return the lines array. Having said that, it seems to be intermittent.

    Yesterday I was able to do both these with the same ID:
    a) GET /CreditNotes/{id}
    b) GET /CreditNotes?Where=CreditNoteID={id}
    And they both returned the lines[] array.

    Today, only (a) works to return the lines[] array.

  5. Ledger for particular account shows corresponding Accounts

    Existing General ledger report gives understanding Summary/detailed Dr and Cr amounts but it does not tell you which Accounts are involved in transactions. Ability to create Summary Ledger for particular Account that shows correspondence with Accounts according recorded transactions. It is very useful to find mistakes if your allocations were wrong. For example, when you created bill and mistakenly choose wrong GST type or expense Account. Another good reason for monthly/quarterly reconciliation AR/AP. For example, creating AR ledger you will see aggregate or detailed amounts of Bank/Cash accounts, GST and Customer deposits. If you made mistake when you reconcile bank…

  9. create new endpoint for "Copy to Bill"

    there's an article for "Creating Bills from Purchase Orders" (https://central.xero.com/s/article/Creating-bills-from-purchase-orders), however I can't find endpoint for this action in accounting API (https://xeroapi.github.io/xero-node/accounting/index.html#api-Accounting).

    Update the status using updatePurchaseOrder (https://xeroapi.github.io/xero-node/accounting/index.html#api-Accounting-updatePurchaseOrder) won't let user create a bill in xero by default.

    Fyi, this is my case detail : (https://central.xero.com/s/case?caseId=5003m00001DLY6B)

    Thanks

  10. update repeating invoices when an inventory item price is updated

    Currently when an inventory item's price has been updated, the updated pricing does not automatically apply to repeating invoices. Would love for an option to update be available.

  12. Change of bank account - checkbox and/or prompt to verify that you have verbally confirmed the account details are correct for Suppliers

    Change of bank account - checkbox and prompt to verify that you have verbally confirmed the account details are correct for Suppliers. Date functionality of when you confirmed would also be beneficial.

  13. Short-term cash flow - include draft invoices

    I love the new cash flow feature, but I would love the option (a tick box that you could turn on and off) to include draft invoices.

    When I set up a client we sent 3 invoices. I usually send the first, and make the next two as drafts. But this means these are not included in the cash flow projection.

    I would love to be able to see these included or at least an option to choose to see them included.

  16. Long lived tokens for testing purposes

    Our challenge is with our test and verification setup: we have 4 stages of pre-production environments and every environment runs CI (Jenkins) with full tests each night and relevant tests with each code push. With this setup it is very challenging to share and update shared refresh tokens.
    We would like long lived tokens (access and/or refresh) for testing purposes only.
    Other services we work with have been able to change settings on app/client id level.

  17. Add If-Modified-Since optional parameter to Xero Projects APIs

    We are trying to sync customer's Tasks across Xero Projects, currently we have to poll for all Tasks on each Project. Some customers are using 200+ 'active' (state= INPROGRESS) projects, however they are only adding 5-10 Tasks a day spread across these projects.

    If we were able to query the /projects endpoint with a 'If-Modified-Since' parameter (or header) and the result only contained projects either updated direct or those that had associated Tasks added/edited, then we would only need to call /projects/:id/tasks for those ProjectId's, likewise if this endpoint also could be queried with If-Modified-Since then only those new Tasks…

  18. allow control for the default email when sending invoices

    When sending an invoice through Xero.com the format includes a "Pay Now" button. I wanted this when sending an invoice through the API.

  19. automatically insert a Pay Now button when an invoice is emailed to a customer via the API POST function

    Currently the Xero API allows us to trigger the emailing of a Xero invoice to the customer via a POST command.

    If a Payment Service is already set up in Xero, the emailed invoice should automatically include the Pay Now button.
