  1. Journals updated with "Find and recode" are never retrieved by the API

    When using the If-Modified-Since header, journals updated via "find and recode" are never retrieved.

    There are two main issues with this:

    There is no way via the API to know when journals have been modified, so we're reporting numbers which don't reflect the GL.

    In order to resolve the issue, we need to reload all transactions since the earliest created date of the recoded journal. This could be hundreds of thousands of journals.

  2. Set up notification when customer uses Contact Merchant / Ask a Question button on online invoice where invoice generated by API

    Where an invoice is created via API and the customer uses the Contact Merchant button and Ask a Question form found in the online invoice emailed to them, no user in the organisation is notified by email (as the creator user is 'System Generated').

    There needs to be a way either to disable or remove the button, or specify an existing user or email address to be notified in these instances.

    At present, a note is created attached to the invoice but users in the organisation are not made aware of its presence, leaving the customer frustrated their message has…

  3. Allow zero value invoices to be updated via the API

    Currently they are unable to be updated as they are automatically marked as "paid". However, updates are allowed for these invoices via the Dashboard, so I would expect the same behavior via the API.

  5. Update Bills (ACCPAY) after they are paid

    We should be able to update certain fields on an ACCPAY invoice via the API even after the bill is paid. This is in line with the Xero UI. In the Xero UI we can edit the Due Date and Reference still after payment but we can't edit anything via the API. These should match and we should be able to edit the reference (InvoiceNumber) and URL as they do not affect the payment or anything financial on the bill.

    For reference the only reason I'm needing to update these fields is because custom metadata can't be applied to invoices…

  8. Save an invoice as a bill With PDF.

    The provision is to save the invoice as a "Bill to Pay" and associate the invoice reference(Custom If Possible) with the bill to pay, including the PDF of the linked invoice via API.

  9. Apply Branding Theme to Prepayment via API.

    So we collect a lot of prepayments in our work, and those require a customized branding theme to act as a receipt as they are unlike the regular invoice payments.

    Hopefully in future, there will be a way to apply a branding theme to a specific PrepaymentID via the API too.

    Thanks!

  10. Get shareable Online Prepayment URL via API

    Hi,

    I saw that there is a way to get an online invoice url via the api. (ref: https://developer.xero.com/documentation/api/accounting/invoices#retrieving-the-online-invoice-url)

    We hope to have the same way to easily get a shareable Prepayment URL via API for customers to view as well.

  11. create a way to enter comments through API in the discuss tab in Xero when reconciling

    I'd like to build an automation to enter various comments (of my choosing) in the discuss tab in Xero depending upon what the AI finds in the transaction. The current APIs don't allow for comments to be entered in the discuss tab in Xero.

  12. We need to be able to fetch bulk, paginated History and Notes

    We need to be able to fetch bulk, paginated History and Notes via the API. Now it only has the ability to fetch records for single invoice. It will be great if we are performing one time ETL and we are getting the time out 429 status in error and rate limiting issue.

  13. in the project API expose the time start in time entries

    Either expose the time start in project time entries or expose project reports.

    This is extremely important when trying to calculate overtime and also to review timings when doing payroll.

    I actually cannot believe it is not already exposed.

  14. Remove populated FullyPaidOnDate after payment is reversed

    If a payment is applied to an invoice the FullyPaidOnDate is populated correctly and appears through the API.

    However, when a payment is reversed on a previously fully paid invoice, the FullyPaidOnDate will not be removed from the XML result through the API, regardless of the fact that the invoice is not fully paid.

  17. Partial payment feature for invoices coming through API

    Enable the ability to split payments on a bank rec coming through the API so we can reconcile merchant payments from two separate machines on 1 day. 1 invoice, 2 payments currently unable to split.

  18. Fix the Expense Claim dates

    The C# wrapper is looking for CreatedDateUTC, UpdatedDateUTC & Date but the API returns just UpdatedDateUTC and even this appears to be wrong in my testing (I get 2008-09-25T11:04:21.707).

    I'd like to see ReportingDate and PaymentDueDate.
