Get mapping of companies with all embedded integrations
Suppose, I have more than 500 companies to manage and each one uses different integrations eg: routable, adp, toast, square etc. How can I see which company is associated with how many integrations. I want to have a report or api that can provide me that information.
Otherwise, there might be a possibility that for example: "Company A" in Xero might accidently or by human error be connected to "Company C" in routable instead of "Company A". Having some kind of metric can help in auditing/correcting such things else it could be a recipe for disaster.

On Attachment of supplier invoice against PO, update the POs UpdatedDateUTC
Upon Uploading a file to a Purchase Order in Xero the UpdatedDateUTC value does not update.
We are looking to pull all files linked to POs into our system and currently need to send a list of POs to check for attachments against, instead of easily knowing which PO has an attachment added since the last time we completed an API call.

Practice Manager API returns the Last Modified Since value which you can search for
The Practice Manager API allows you to restrict the list to anything that has been modified since a particular date. The issue is that the value isn't returned on the response.
We would like that field to be returned so we have visibility on the exact last modified time.

modifiedsince=yyyy-MM-ddTHHss
Thank you

Allow 20 characters in Phone Number field in New Zealand and UK
Problem:
The Xero phone number field only supports 13 characters in New Zealand and the UK. We have build an integration between Xero and BambooHR that is used by mutual companies in Australia, New Zealand and the United Kingdom. It has become a global necessity to keep mobile phone numbers with a country prefix. 13 characters, your current Xero limit, is not long enough and needs to be lengthened.
Solution:
We propose that Xero allows 20 characters in this field as BambooHR and many other companies now do.
Benefit:
Happy mutual customers who can data entry effectively important communication numbers.…

Have addresses from the Fishbowl API be sent to the individual invoice rather than overriding the address in the contact screen
Allow Xero to receive billing and shipping addresses directly as the billing and delivery address for an individual invoice rather then it being sent to the overall contact screen. This would allow for invoices to have different addresses on them for the same client depending on the order. If this worked correctly, we could then have that address tied to and saved to an individual invoice. Currently, we have to manually change the address on every single invoice as our clients have orders shipped all across the country and the world.

Sync 0.00 value invoices and credit notes from Stock&Buy to Xero
Sync 0.00 value invoices and credit notes from Stock&Buy to Xero
Some online orders will be synced to S&B with 0.00 value to ensure our stock are correct. We will add the sales invoices into Xero base on these orders fortnightly statement. These 0 value invoices can be synced to Xero, but the refunds can't. This will cause the inventory difference between S&B and Xero.
Thank you.

budget upload to Xero API
It would be great to have an budget upload API.
I'm using G-Accon to push data in Xero, it would be great to be able to push budgets too.
Currently, Xero's budget manager is a bit rigid in its layout. However with G-Accon I could use a custom layout, or for example narrow down for a departmental budget, and then push to Xero.3 votes -
Send Remittance Advice via API
I would love to be able to send a remittance advice via API. There are a couple of scenarios where this is would be useful:
1. Monitoring the bank feed for reconciled payments and sending the Remittance ass appropriate
2. Generating a payment file from a list of invoices that are being paid and sending the remittance as appropriate3 votes -
Add an API endpoint for starting and stopping project timers, and getting the current time
There are currently endpoints for adding time logging to Xero, but not for interacting with the running timers.
It would be really helpful to be able to do this, so that I (and others) could have external tools (in my case a StreamDeck) able to start and stop timers.
I would also like to be able to request information on what the timer is currently on in order to get live feedback.

Increase the number of uncertified apps you can link to Xero, 2 is very limiting!
We aren't able to connect a 3rd party uncertified app due to already being at the limit of 2. This poses quite an issue for us!

add the option to send a idempotency key with requests to update or change resources
For example any network, process issues etc may cause a request to create an invoice (or other resource) to occur, but the response to never be recorded. Potentially causing the process to retry this action.
One way is to add a idempotency key which Stripe for example does nicely here: https://stripe.com/docs/api/idempotent_requests
Another way would be to have a non consumer facing external ID, for both the resource and lineitems that can be set by the application and then check for its existence later. Or allow the application to set the UUIDs for these resources
For something as accurate as accounting,…

Add an 'IN' operator to WHERE filter, to use a list
I've previously used ODATA when filtering requests - e.g. MYOB.
It provides an 'IN' operator for the filter, so you can request using a list of items.
e.g. ?where=Code IN ('1234','1245','1236','1237','1238')
Obviously, this translates directly to the common SQL clause - WHERE column_name IN (value1, value2, vlaue3, etc)
Thus avoiding the need for multiple request, or paging an ALL accounts request and then filtering locally.

allow filtering in reports at the group level
A U.S. nonprofit's statement of activities groups expenses by activity, not by account. It would be helpful to be able to add an account to a blank report more than once so the account can appear under different groups, and to be able to apply a filter to each group by one or more tracking categories. This would allow us to create a report using the Blank Report template that mimics the statement of activities.

Reconciliation search box to allow multiple search words separated by commas
Many people want the bank reconciliation api feature but since Xero wont do that, here are 2 ideas for helping some people reconcile invoices
Allow multiple search words in the search box
We have clients who pay 50+ invoices all in one batch. They give us a statement in pdf and csv but we have no way to enter that into the xero search except for 1 at a time. Allow us to make a list of invoice ids as a comma separated string and copy paste that into the search boxNext to the search box, add an upload…
