    This suggestion is well overdue for an update!

    Support for updating the chart of the accounts was released back on the 4th of May.

    The only outstanding functionality is to be able to update bank accounts. I’ve created another post to track demand for that specific feature:

  2. Expose the user email address via the User endpoint

  3. 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    After modification of account code certain cached invoices may have outdated account codes pointing to non-existent accounts.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…

  5. Differentiate Bank and Credit Card Account

    The very well managed Xero API just made us surprised that there is no concrete way to differentiate a Credit Card and a bank account. They both are under account type Asset. Based on number of digits in the account number could not be an ideal way to differentiate these two. Requesting to provide a flag so that API users can credit or debit the amount to create Balance sheet.

  6. Chart of accounts: enable file attachments

    Enable attachments on the chart of accounts - support the files functionality in Xero via the API so files can be attached to accounts in Xero.
