Sort your reports out
Why are Xero reports so frustrating??? Is it just me?
Another one that has wasted extreme amounts of time, the vat audit report.
Why is it spread over a ridiculous area so you have to view it in wide view to see any useful information. What is the point? It fits it on a normal view then expands itself and you lose half the useful information?
Then you have to randomly click all the blue underlined options to find the ONE that drills down to the detail. You check what you need to - ie why the hell there are numerous VAT Adjusted entries. You check the first one, then click the back arrow to go back and check the next one - but wait the report judders back to the very start original view, then judders to the stupidly wide view with half the information missing so you have to click wide view again, wait for it to sort its self out then scroll through hundreds of entries back to where you were and hopefully remember what one you checked last. STUPID USELESS WASTE OF TIME.- The report does not have to be wide, the columns are ridiculously wide for no reason and you can't adjust them or take out what you don't need, so you can fit the information on one page.
- Why does it insist on "adjusting" the vat? Or even recording rounding? You just amend the amount, vat can be up or down it always has been, no need for all the other confusing annoying stuff to make things difficult? Why does it not go back to where you were whenever you click back? This is the whole system, everywhere you are, whatever you are doing, you can't just get back to the place you were. Xero has managed to go backwards with this software? Why are you not taking any notice of your community? Here I am wasting my time again asking questions that I will never get a proper response to or any improvements or answers from when I should be processing accounts. This has made my job harder not easier I have never wasted so much time in trying to do the most basic bookkeeping tasks in over twenty years. Why don't your developers just sign up to something like QuickBooks Online or any desktop software and see how easy it is on everything else. Maybe then they could start making Xero what it is cracked up to be? It actually makes me want to do a different job! I am aware I am just ranting to myself now, this is what xero has done to me!

AccountID to come across with Payments when getting Invoices from Xero API.
Hi there,
At most when I am doing a GET for Invoice details; the payment details that come across do not have the AccountID
This is the maximum amount of information I am ever getting from a Payment on an Invoice
PaymentID => 22974891-3689-4694-9ee7-fd2ba917af55
Date => 2017-10-18T00:00:00
Amount => 148.50
Reference => Chq 409But if I do a Get on the Payment ID I can grab the full details;
Can we get the AccountID to appear within the Payments array of a GET Invoice request?
Thanks

amend the account transactions report
include the proper payment or sales description inputted. The report currently shows the supplier / customer in the description column and doesn't pull through the actual description e.g. flight for programme manager to attend conference.
I need separate columns for the description I entered and for the supplier /customer for donor reporting and I currently have to mess around with several different reports to put the information together for our donor.1 vote -
Add planned date when you create new purchase invoice
Add a 'planned date' box for when you create a new supplier invoice to save having to change screen (e.g payments are made 35 days after receipt of invoice or a particular day each week). Currently you have to change the screen to enter the planned date.

Replace / Fix inaccurate text when non-Admin user attempts to connect via API
This idea will take about 15 minutes to implement, so I hope it is looked at soon.
When a non-Admin user attempts to connect a Partner App to Xero via the API, they are given an inaccurate message. The message reads
"You don't have a Xero Organisation yet."
This is inaccurate, as they often do have a Xero Organisation but are not an Admin. This leads to wasted time, support calls, irritated users, and unhappy partners.
Please replace that above message with something like
"You are not an Administrator of any Xero Organisations yet."

- Payment recorded against bill
- Credit note applied against bill1 vote -
Be Able To Get Customer Credit Rating Through The API
Given that credit ratings can now be shown for customers in the main application I would like to suggest that the credit rating, even as a number or as a descriptor (matching the rating gauge in the main interface, be made available through the API in the contact payload data so that when viewing customer data through the API the credit rating can be seen as well.

Remove personally identifiable information from error messages for compliance
API error responses in Xero contain a substantial sack of unnecessary XML which complicates compliance with data-privacy legislation (GDPR for example). Included in the error response is the original request XML. The original request will most likely contain personally indefinably information which means these messages require substantial filtering before being returned into logging systems or error notification infrastructure.
In some cases the error message itself contains customer information i.e.
<Message>The contact name Bob Smith is already assigned to another contact. The contact name must be unique across all active contacts.</Message>. Perhaps in these examples it would be better if the message was simply<Message>The contact name is already assigned to another contact.

fix bug - universal search for numbers ending in "00" eg "2300"
when using the universal search, the search never finds invoices or bills ending in 00. For example search for invopice number "2300" this will return zero results. If the search is conducted from within the Sales search the invoice can be found.
This issue also relates to Purchase orders and bills ending in 00

Include as part of the Invoice api, a reminders node listing the date/s reminders have been sent, rather than expanding the separate InvoiceReminders request.

add the "Source" field to your "Bank Transactions" endpoint
It would be useful to see the Source of a bank transaction to tell if it was user generated, csv upload or from a bank feed. Currently it seems you can only access this via the Bank Statement Report.

include an API for retrieving updated inventory only
Our developers are connecting to the Xero API to pull product quantities. Our orders from our websites, decrements the tracked inventory in Xero. We only want to update our website with products which have been updated in a 24 hour period.
An API code which checks if an inventory item has been updated recently would be a great feature. This would assist online merchants who have thousands of products grab only relevant updates and avoids the limitations of Xero API calls.

report
I would like the Receivable Invoice Detail report exposed to the API, if possible. Right now I have to generate the report (with some custom settings) and export it in order to copy over sales data on specific SKUs to our custom system so we can do some analysis on those items. This is all a manual process, and it would be so much nicer to be able to automate it to run as a daily task that uses the API. Thanks for your help!
