Default Tracking option for line items
Hi, the Xero api offers creation of Tracking options against line items but is missing a way to add Default Tracking option for line item so that the generated line item will have this option as preselected. Currently we have to ask our customers to go and set the proper tracking option themselves. Maybe if we can have an endpoint to associate a certain option as default for the line item that would be great and save our clients the work to assign it manually.

Link Projects to Invoice Line Items
Currently its impossible to link invoice items (revenue) to projects using the Accounting API. Furthermore, its impossible to modify invoices that have line items that have been linked to projects using the web UI.
This is a show stopper for us who have automated billing solutions and want to track the profitability of those projects within Xero. It's heartbreaking to have to do this outside of Xero.
Please make it possible for us to link invoice line items to Projects in order to use Xero as our Billing engine for invoices and invoice items that are generated outside of Xero…

SIE file report/export
SIE is a universal data format to exchange accounting information between different systems.
Our auditor prefer having a SIE4 file, which he would import into his own system, to do the final revision and making necessary documentation for the government. W/o this file he has to tap in the data manually, which takes more time and cost us more money.
We would like to add the SIE file format as an alternative for export.
For mor information

Make it possible to run a report featuring all account codes including those with zero balcance
When one is running a Cash Summary or Profit & Loss, why not make it possible to view & export the report featuring all active account codes?
This would save a lot of time formatting excel sheets if the rows lined up every time. And it seems like a simple fix, just add the checkbox:
"Run report featuring zero balance active accounts"

Assign Linked Transactions to Projects via the API
Using Projects would be a great solution for my company, but without the ability to assign billable expenses to Projects via the API, they are not useful to us.

Add Is-Modified-Since optional parameter to GET LinkedTransactions
I'm looking to filter the Linked Transactions returned by the GET. It looks like this was planned feature in the September 11, 2015 release notes and many other end points support Is-Modified-Since.

Linked Transactions via API - multiple in one call.
Linked Transactions are limited to one per call via the API. This results in having to make a great many API calls unnecessarily. For instance linking the invoice line items to a project after several invoices with many lines are added via API will require many more calls than are allowed. For now I will have to put in place a costly work-around to trickle in the linked transaction calls.

Offer the Account Transactions report as an ODBC table
I would like to be able to select a table in the ODBC connection that is the same as the Account Transactions report. This allows me to create financial statements and analysis based upon the full 'general ledger' of a company's transactions data set.

Allow more than one contact with the same name so API does not overwrite existing data incorrectly.
We have had several 'David Smiths' buy from us via our website. As the API feed sends the data to Xero - Xero looks for a 'David Smith' and then automatically overwrites existing address and phone number etc with the new info.
The result is data that is totally incorrect. Furthermore I recently sent a product to the wrong client which was costly and embarrassing.
The simple solution is for Xero to have a 2nd and 3rd 'identifier' i.e. email address, post code. For example:
If the name + the email address and/or the postcode are a match then =…

Return account & bank connection status
It would be valuable to be able to obtain a status or timestamp of the last successful sync with the bank account. This way, we can inform customers if there is a problem with their bank or if their transactions or accounts are out of date.

Allow Paging for Journals GET
Please consider adding Paging for the Journals GET.
Journals represent a considerable size of data when extracting for e.g. a full financial year.
Alternative solution could be filtering options.
It would be beneficial to be able to either FILTER for a range of data or PAGE the data (for timely returns from the web service).The modified-since and offset options only allow for smaller, recent datasets, not for smaller ranges of data from for e.g. the previous year.
Eg.

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.

Fix Bug: Override TaxAmount in BankTransaction Endpoint
Suggestion: Allow the overriding of the TaxAmount within the BankTransaction Endpoint. This currently works through the UI but not the API.
Issue: Importing a 'Spend' BankTransaction using the API with an adjusted TaxAmount results in a Validation Error:
[Message] => Tax amount 936.09 is incorrect for INPUT2 tax type, should be 187.22Works: Using the UI
Doesn't Work: Using the API3 votes -
