  1. it's challenging to determine which invoice line items are assigned to specific projects.

    I'm writing to suggest a valuable improvement to the Xero API: the ability to directly identify which invoices are linked to projects.

    While I've explored the existing endpoints for both invoices and projects, I haven't found a clear way to establish this relationship through the API data itself.

    Currently, it's challenging to determine which invoice line items are assigned to specific projects. This functionality would be highly beneficial for streamlining workflows and gaining deeper insights into project profitability.

  2. Align the decimals for invoices & bills (7 digits) with payments (6 digits)

    Through Xero API, invoices and bills can be created or updated with up to 7 decimal places while payment transactions can only be created or updated with up to 6 decimal places, it would be great that payments transactions could also be created/updated with 7 decimals

  4. Migrate the Pay Run API from Payrolls

    With the Payrolls functionality being deprecated, the Pay Run https://developer.xero.com/documentation/payroll-api-us/pay-runs API will also be deprecated. By our understanding, this functionality, will still be available via the web UI ("Business > Pay Run"). Maintaining this subset of functionality after the overall Payroll deprecation would be useful for tools such as importers of 3rd Party payroll details.

  5. View community posts as JSON

    This is for the community forum.

    I specifically want it to be able to fetch reviews about a company as we are looking to build a dashboard that combines all of the platforms that we get regular reviews on (Shopify, Xero, GetApp, Capterra) in order to better manage this process.

    For example, it would be good to be able to fetch this as JSON.

  11. Get, Post and Delete project Expenses

    Currently, project endpoints are only available for projects, tasks and time. Unfortunately, expense for projects aren't available. Projects are an important feature for many businesses including construction and I've had numerous clients request this. This information can only be pulled via a detailed project report but the layout and format are very limited. So if the client would like to integrate the data to a CRM or format it a particular way they aren't able to.

  12. Search for a purchase order number using the API which includes a forward slash

    We are creating purchase orders in Xero which have a purchase order in the format of: 'ABCDE/123'. These are coming from DataBuild. When using the PurchaseOrders API endpoint, we are unable to search for purchase orders due to the forward slash character. Have tried using various escape characters in the API call, but it does not work. The Xero API Explorer also fails when running the same call against the PurchaseOrders endpoint, yet the purchase order exists in Xero. We would like to be able to search for purchase orders using escape characters.

  13. 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
