Invoice/Webhook - When posting Invoices, be able to set a flag to stop the Webhook from sending the same data back
With Webhooks enabled, it is pointless to have the webhook send the same data back to us when we are posting the data to Xero.

Bank rules in the API
Please allow me to list, get, post, and delete bank rules in the API. We manage several Organizations and we're copying around these rules by hand right now. It's annoying, expensive, and prone to mistakes. I'd LOVE to just write a script to do it.

add the ability to trigger email of creditnotes to customers.
We can trigger emailing invoices from XERO to the customers email address, using the /email end point on the INVOICES api. We urgently require the same functionality for credit notes and we do not understand why this feature was not extended from invoices to credit notes. Urgently required for customer integration project.

Allow Paging for Journals GET
Please consider adding Paging for the Journals GET.
Journals represent a considerable size of data when extracting for e.g. a full financial year.
Alternative solution could be filtering options.
It would be beneficial to be able to either FILTER for a range of data or PAGE the data (for timely returns from the web service).The modified-since and offset options only allow for smaller, recent datasets, not for smaller ranges of data from for e.g. the previous year.
Eg.

Return TrackingOptionId from GET BankTransactions
TrackingCategories returns IDs for both categories and options as follows

</Option>GET BankTransactions with a bank transaction id specified returns both the category id and name, but only the option name (no id).
<Tracking>
<TrackingCategory>
<Name>My Category Name</Name>
<Option>My Option Name</Option>

Add User element to Invoices API to allow Suppliers to approve system generated invoices
Added to wrong section, moving here to Invoices.
I'd like to generate draft Bills for my subcontractors via xero api, and let them review and submit the invoice. If the User element is exposed like it is in expense claims, then the invoices will be available to the users that it is attached to, and have the draft invoice role.

Open up the Pay Run (Global) to the API
It is currently not possible to get/post/push data related to the payrun for the global edition. This limits integration with systems who can help with the administration of the payroll.

Add total discount on invoice
My client need to add total discount on entire invoice rather than giving discount on each item.
This would be great if we have such option.
Thanks

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…

Assign Linked Transactions to Projects via the API
Using Projects would be a great solution for my company, but without the ability to assign billable expenses to Projects via the API, they are not useful to us.

Tracking CategoryID/OptionID parameters in Trial Balance endpoint.
Adding in the tracking CategoryID and OptionID parameters to the trial balance endpoint would allow for easier & more detailed analysis across multiple tenants in client-specific use cases. The capability exists in the UI via the "new" Trial Balance, so there's a disconnect between the expected level of detail one can get from the UI vs. the API.

include the optionID in the "Get budgets" operation
According to the developer reference here https://developer.xero.com/documentation/api/accounting/budgets
The get budgets operation should include both the tracking category option name and ID.Currently, only the name comes through which means we are forced to name match unless we validate the names via a seperate API call before trusting that budgets are for specific options.
This method we are forced to use does not account for name collisions.

Allow support for html content in the line items description via API.
When invoices are sent to XERO from ProWorkflow, the html characters are showing on the invoices as tags rather than getting rendered properly. Some of our customers who use ProWorkflow and XERO heavily also use the html content in their line item descriptions which obviously causes issues for them as the invoice doesn?t look the same anymore.
I was wondering whether you guys had any thoughts or plans on how we can send html content in the line items over to XERO without stripping all the html characters and get them displayed properly in XERO?

Be able to filter by items inside a list. e.g. Filter invoices by Line Item's Tracking Category
Be able to filter by fields inside an object which has lists. Such as Invoice's Line Items.
These fields contain important information such as tracking category, amounts, totals which would be a good functionality if one is able to filter using these information so to create more detailed reports11 votes -
External Id fields on Contacts, Invoices and Purchase Orders (or URLs for all)
I have spent the past couple of weeks building a pretty hefty integration for a client to integrate their Salesforce platform with Xero.
I have now hit an issue as the client wants to specify a String field to be pushed as the reference... This was not an issue with the Invoices as we used the URL field to define what Salesforce record needs to be updated form the API response.
This would be a very good thing for developers to have a specific "External Id" field so clients can do what they like and we have one for ourselves!

Be able to specify the company required at login
We are operating with multiple companies within a single Xero account. It would be more secure if we could pre-select a company rather than leaving it to the user to select one after they have logged on.
In PHP we call
$XeroOAuth->request('GET', $XeroOAuth->url('RequestToken', ''), $params);i.e. Can we include the company in the $params?

Provide API to retrieve Customer Invoice Reports
We'd like the ability to retrieve customer reports (as data and in PDF format). We could attempt to re-assemble the reports ourselves but for consistency we'd like to be able to retrieve them directly from Xero.
