add Receive Money transactions via the API
We commonly expect to receive cash from within our organisation; ie: depositing a float, or cash takings from a sale. Rather than invoice ourselves, a simple Receive Money transaction would track and account for this nicely.

Add ACN to the Contacts API Response
When using the AU Xero there is a field for ACN which is great.... except that it's not in the API Response for contacts. If that could be added it would be awesome. Thank you

fix the Profit and Loss report via the API to support periods and timeframe
The Profit & Loss report via the API will only show a summarized total for the timeframe specified which is inconsistent with the P&L report available on the website. Adding 'periods' and 'timeframe' parameters similar to the Budget Summary report should resolve the issue.

Add page size/limit to paging GET requests
It would be useful to be able to specify the page size when executing paging requests for the various API GET resources. Currently, the page size is 100, but can't be changed. The issue is that 100 records can still be a long callout if that includes related information.
Being able to do something like:
/Invoices?page=1&pageSize=50Or similar would be handy!
13 votesHey Guys
The default page size is 100, with a maximum of 1000 and a minimum of 1. If users set a value outside the supported range, we automatically adjust it to the nearest supported page size.

Be able to overide a currency rate for an invoice raised in a foreign currency
In the app you can override the currency rate with your own. Would be great to do this with invoices generated via the API as I get my rates from another provider (ie. not XE)

Ability to change ExpectedPaymentDate on invoice within lock period
The web UI allows us to change the expected date on an AUTHORISED invoice that is issued before the period lock date. The API however does not allow this, and fails with warning about editing invoice in lock period.
Contacting Xero support, I got this message: "With the web interface, there is a script that limit fields that can or cannot edited when lock date is used. Unfortunately the API does not have that ability so currently it is all or nothing. So to edit the invoice, the lock date has to be removed first. We don't have any immediate…

archive contacts via the API
Ability to archive a contact. The user should have a way in Xero to view archived contacts and restore them – this could just be another automatic contact group like customers and suppliers are which shows as a tab in contacts where they can view the archive list and restore the selected contacts. Archived contacts should not appear in any of their custom ‘contact groups’ but the links should not be removed so if they are restored they return to the original groups.
12 votesToday’s API release provides the ability to archive contacts via the API. http://developer.xero.com/documentation/api/v2-release-notes/#2.50
We still have some work to do on contacts, including allowing developers a way to see merged contacts: http://xero.uservoice.com/forums/5528-xero-core-api/suggestions/89557-when-contacts-are-merged-show-this-status-for-the

update the updateddateutc when an invoice is modified
I noticed that the value UpdatedDateUTC for an invoice is never reset once it is put into Xero no matter what modification I did to an invoice such as add/delete a line item or add a reference at Xero. Thus the updated invoices can not be retrieved even though they did update after modifiedSince
11 votesWe added the updated timestamp primarily to see payments added to invoices. We have no way of getting the info you need at the moment. If you’re keen to see this implemented soon please vote for it

allow tax inclusive invoices via the API
at the moment invoices have to be specified with their tax exclusive amounts, which leads to some invoice totals being unavialable. I would prefer to specify the tax inclusive amount, and have Xero work out the tax portion

Show AccountID in LineItem in Invoices API
Include AccountID in LineItem in Invoices API.
Currently only AccountCode is shown in LineItems. Absence of AccountID renders cached invoices invalid when account's code is changed. Moreover, there is no guaranteed method to determine whether cached invoice became invalid.
After modification of account code certain cached invoices may have outdated account codes pointing to non-existent accounts. Or, what a horror, to different existing accounts, if previously-used account code was recycled. The latter is horrifying because if cached invoice points to non-existent account one may simply refetch the invoice, but if account code was recycled, there is no way to figure…

Integrate Magento into Xero.
I mean, it's only the fastest growing and one of the most widely used ecommerce softwares available today. Many people on the Magento forums have been asking for a solution to accounting and Xero would be perfect. (I know that there is already a company that created an integrator, but they charge a monthly fee! It's just one more unnecessary monthly expense)
9 votesWe currently have three add-on partners that provide Magento integration listed in our add-ons directory: Carry the One, Unleashed and Fooman. Check them out here: http://www.xero.com/advisors/solutions/ecommerce/
