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).

Get the list of projects and invoices / bills lines attached
Currently, it is not possible to get the list of invoices / bills lines attached to a project. Neither via a report nor via API.
It's only possible to get the list of invoices for a particular project in the GUI and we are not even able to get an extract of that info.
We are using other operational systems and need to use this info. Plus, we would like to point out all invoices where there is no project attached and this is currently impossible.
That would be awesome if we could extract this via API.
Thank you

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

Create more granular accounting scopes (eg: Sales - Invoice only)
Right now there is a very wide range of APIs wrapped up in the "accounting.transactions" scope, with no way to provide more granular access within these APIs (https://developer.xero.com/documentation/guides/oauth2/scopes#organisation-scopes).
This means that it's not possible to grant access to something quite narrow without also granting access to other things that are often not needed. For example, you cannot grant permission to creating/manipulating Sales Invoices without also giving access to all Bank Transactions at the same time.
This problem is perhaps accentuated for Custom Connections, which are designed to be used for "in house" integrations, as ALL developers with access…

Retained Earnings / unrealised FX (system account) journals
Xero has 'system' accounts where journals are not posted, but values are calculated by reports. Therefore when pulling the journals from Xero, we can not accruately recreate the balance sheet and P&L (as vital journals are missing). Therefore in this respect the Xero API is incomplete.
Specific examples of the Journals API misses:
- Retained Earnings journals (this is instead calculated by a report)
- Unrealised FX journals (again calculated and shown only in the report)
- May also be the case for other system accounts.
The calculations made by the reports could be made available via the API to provide a complete…

Link Projects to Invoice Line Items
Currently its impossible to link invoice items (revenue) to projects using the Accounting API. Furthermore, its impossible to modify invoices that have line items that have been linked to projects using the web UI.
This is a show stopper for us who have automated billing solutions and want to track the profitability of those projects within Xero. It's heartbreaking to have to do this outside of Xero.
Please make it possible for us to link invoice line items to Projects in order to use Xero as our Billing engine for invoices and invoice items that are generated outside of Xero…

Provide Non-Crippled Access to Invoice URL via the API
After waiting for years for the ability to access the Invoice URL via the API, it was unfortunately provided in a completely crippled manner.
What should have happened is that the Invoice URL simply be provided along with the rest of the Invoice data through the paging API.
Instead, it is provided on a per-invoice basis, requiring the use of an API call for every URL retrieved. Given the shockingly small limit to API calls, this makes this non-workable.
Your competition, QuickBooks Online, allows 500 calls per MINUTE, compared to Xero's 1000 per DAY. If you had their API limits…
