  1. This can either be in the same PDF, or links within the statement PDF. This would avoid asking us for copy invoices, even though they have been sent to them...

  2. Xero makes it very difficult to undo transactions and postings if they have been done incorrectly. Could you make it so before handing xero over to clients you could take a back up of the accounts which you could then restore if nessacery and overwrite any mistakes made.

    Thanks

  6. If a customer wants to settle more than one invoice they have to view individual invoices and enter payment details each time - this method is onerous for customers.

    It is preferable to send a statement and allow the customer to "pay now" on the statement balance due - In effect bulk settling invoices.

  7. Currently there is no way to report on the status of purchase orders, or details of what has been ordered. I think we should have a basic report exportable to excel with the following headings:

    PO number,
    supplier,
    details of items on order,
    date raised,
    date due,
    amount,
    total,
    gst,
    grand total,
    status,
    person who created the PO.

  8. You have a short list of payroll companies who can already interface with Xero accounting software, but I cannot find the format a general ledger needs to be in, in order to update the GL in Xero.

    It needs to be easier to become one of those payroll companies, or you need to provide an import function and provide an import spec sheet.

  9. We need a fast way to reclassify bulk transactions from any type of account, location, or class. QuickBooks has the Reclassify Transactions feature and Xero should have the same.We also need the ability to change account types for bank accounts to any Asset, Liability, Equity, Income, and Expense accounts. My suggestion, give us Xero Partners accountants tools like QuickBooks does for us. Our clients do not get these tools, but QuickBooks ProAdvisors get them. Xero can do the same for us Xero Partners.

  10. You can merge contacts, how about the ability to merge accounts, users will often create duplicate accounts and use both, rather than waste time recoding a bunch of transactions choose which accounts you want to merge

  12. Create and API entry point to set default exchange rates, just like we do on the Settings page.

    Rational: here in Poland, we're obliged to use the Polish Central Bank exchange rates on accounting. Having an API for it makes it possible for us the call it once everyday to set the rate for the next day. Without this we're not able to use Xero officially for bookkeeping. (we have to setup the rates for this whole calendar year!)

  13. Sagepay is one of the most popular payment gateways used in the UK, it would be a huge benefit to add sagepay as an invoice payment method option in xero.

  14. It is really great to be able to see outstanding Sales invoices and draft invoices. Would be fantastic if i could also see on the dashboard Bill amounts owing and outstanding.

  15. We invoice just upon payment, so it would be nice to be able to send <Payments> together with <Invoice>, when creating it, so we don't need to do two separate calls for it.

  16. Good Day All,

       Upon importing the default field "Email Address" or [EmailAddress] this field can only accept one and only one email address.  
       After the invoice has gone thru approval you have a To field when you select the 'Email' Buttion.  The sub field to this one is [ContactEmail] but when i added that to my CSV to be imported it was Ignored.  
    

    Please Add [ContactEmail] to the import so after it is approved the billing manager doesn't need to add a "; [extra email address]" to every statement that it is needed for notification.

    Secondly, Xero has a field…

  17. When trying to complete a credit note you cant amend the amount on a invoice that has already received a payment this is frustrating as we run promotions all the time and it is annoying to have to either delete the invoice and reenter it or delete the payment and re enter it, this is more work load and it would be more benifical to be able to enter the amount that you are wanting to enter rather then it automatically deleting the amount outstanding on the invoice, will they be able to make this more user friendly by entering…

  18. When selecting transactions to match bulk bank payments the columns allow for only individual sorting. It would be nice to be able to sort by customer and date rather than just either. I suppose you could apply nested sorting to all column selecting areas of Xero.

  19. I’ve an insurance app called Modern Risk Solutions that allows users (whether business or personal) to submit requests for insurance quotes.

    See link: https://itunes.apple.com/hk/app/modern-risk-solutions-incident/id616505814?mt=8

    I’d like to be able to PULL information via Xero from business entities for the following fields:

    • Name
    • Company Name
    • Email
    • Phone
    • State
    • Years in business
    • Numbers of employees
    • Current year revenue/turnover
    • Claims or losses in the last 5 years
    • Total replacement cost of all assets
    • Target price/budget

    We’d like the ability to pull the information from Xero via a Connect with Facebook style login…

  20. The C# wrapper is looking for CreatedDateUTC, UpdatedDateUTC & Date but the API returns just UpdatedDateUTC and even this appears to be wrong in my testing (I get 2008-09-25T11:04:21.707).

    I'd like to see ReportingDate and PaymentDueDate.
