  1. add an endpoint for BankStatements so we can read the bank feed through the API

    We need to automatically recognize certain payments withing the daily bank feed statements and create overpayments on the respective client accounts.
    The information is already available as the lines of the statements are available in the portal so it is just a matter of exposing it through the API.
    Currently this is done by our accountant which takes a lot of his time for no good reason as this can easily be automated.

  2. Bank Statement Query-Click on searched transaction to enter details

    'Upon searching for imported/feed bank transaction, to click on said found transaction to enter/create details/transaction & reconcile'.
    I have a lot of US Dollars transactions that come through the credit card & bank account - I need to search for the AUD value before I can input it via the bank feed 'bank statement' tab. Many are once off suppliers, so no need to enter bills - esp as I dont get paperwork with AUD only USD. It would be great if I could then click on said found transaction to complete the process and reconcile. Even if it takes…

    Currently you can update any account from your chart of accounts except bank accounts.

    This suggestion is to add update (POST) support for accounts with Type of BANK on the Accounts endpoint.

    Note It is possible to create bank accounts, this is specifically in regard to updates.

  5. Add assign purchases field to the bottom of sales /invoicing screen - this option is available in purchases but not sales.

    Add "Assign purchases" field to the bottom of sales /invoicing screen - this option is available in purchases but not sales.
    We assign expenses to customers while invoicing - If we have multiple trades it would make life easier if at the bottom of the sales invoice scsreen i could assign billable expenses here.

  6. Overpayment where filter doesn't seem to work

    I am trying to query overpayments by GUID with 'Where' filter and it doesn't seem to work.

    Where=OverpaymentID==GUID("d32...b4") -> does not return any
    Where=Status=="AUTHORISED" -> returns rows as expected
    .../Overpayments/d32...b4 -> returns as expected

    Is this a bug or I am doing something wrong?

  7. make xero identify duplicate bills import from another App eg Receipt Bank

    it would be great for Xero to be able to identify duplication with synching data from other applications. Xero just can not rely on third party.
    it's going to be better selling point for Xero .

  8. Allow bulk retrieval of all outstanding balances by grouped contact

    Currently we can get the amount owing by querying individual contacts. However, given the API limits this becomes impossible to do on a daily basis for reporting once a reasonable number of customers is being queried.

    While it's possible it's better to do it in a web-hook-update kind of way when new information comes into Xero and is pushed externally, it would make more sense to me to have an endpoint that simply allows a contact summary to be obtained in a single API call which could have simple aggregates, like amount owing, shown.

  11. Chart of accounts via API - bank accounts

    As the Organisation creation wizard limits the import of Chart of Accounts to 1000 when they exceed this they need to be imported via the API. Causing additional pain to transfer the bank balance from the chart of account type pushed in via the API to a newly created chart of account to connect the bank feed to.

    The constraints on the API is that the Credit cards and Paypal account types can only be created as type Bank Account type. This means that the client is unable to connect the correct Bank feed as the Account Type is incorrect.
