  1. Create Batch Deposits -
    https://help.xero.com/au/BatchDepositCreate
    Does the API support this specific function? Is there a functional issue as to why this is not supported, or just never requested/not enough votes??
    Apologies if it is supported - I could not find it anywhere on developer pages etc.
    THANKS

  2. Some of my customers who forget to pay their overdue invoices use the excuse "Oh, I don't seem to have received your invoice".

    It would be great if we could have a tickbox option to "Request a Read Receipt" (much in the way you can when sending an email via MS Outlook) so that when the customer reads the email they are then prompted to send a receipt confirming that they've read it.

    They won't be able to use the above excuse anymore if they send a read receipt!

  3. In Version 2.74 on Dec 8, 2014, added new feature delete a payment.
    However this feature only allow to delete payments to approved AR and AP invoices, but NOT allow to delete payments to AR and AP CreditNote.

  4. Currently, it seems that you need to make a separate call to get <Attachments>. Being able to get this supplied on the standard invoices/bank transactions/manual journals/credit notes endpoints when page is given would help lower the number of API calls without much increasing the amount of data sent.

  5. Provide CreatedDateUTC element so invoices, manual journals etc can be filtered using the new element in similar way like UpdatedDateUTC

  6. The only way of modifying the Expected Payment Date via the API right now is to remove every payment first, then update the date and reapply the payments. We have customers paying via installments (of up to 30 payments) and it would seem a lot more logical to allow changing the Expected Payment Date.

    The reason why the Expected Payment Date is important to us is that we use it for cashflow forecasting.

  9. I would love to see the payments made against a supplier in the contacts.
    ie: date of payment and amount. Then be able to drill down and see what invoices were paid. As it is you can see invoices and that they have been paid but not dates of payment or amount paid unless you drill down into invoice and then drill into payment.

  10. I am looking at entering transactions of 2013. (So i have no intention in creating invoices for the sales happened that time, rather just enter the sales amount)

    When there is a SALE in showroom through credit card, the money go to the credit card company and after deducting their charges they will credit our bank with the balance amount.
    For eg: if the sale is 1000, they will credit our bank with 977, meaning their charges is 23.
    The entry would be:
    Dr. Bank 977
    Dr. Credit Card company 23
    Cr. Sales 1000

    I would like to make this…

  11. It is currently not possible to get/post/push data related to the payrun for the global edition. This limits integration with systems who can help with the administration of the payroll.

  15. I would like to have the ability to approve all invoices, bills and PO's that have been submitted for approval using the Android app on my phone. Instead of what I have to do not which is to login to the Xero website through my phone and navigate the small text to painstakingly reach the item that requires approval.

  16. Allow multiple invoices to be paid from the Sales area of Xero at the time of receiving the payment, rather than awaiting the bank feed. I.e. customer pays over the counter, or over the phone by credit card, and the Xero user wishes to update immediately on the system, rather than waiting for the bank feed the following day. This also leads to the suggestion of allowing a Bank Deposit form to be printed, from cash and cheques received during the day.

  18. google wallet now allows customer send funds (from credit/debit or bank account) to a business google wallet. I'd like to have xero recognize google wallet as a bank account, so it could receive transactions from it.

    in addition, we'd like to be able to make payments (payroll included) using google wallet

    thanks for considering

    PS. as it stands now, a third party can not write such an integration because the Xero API for banking/payment is not available.

    If this request is not considered, alternative suggestion is to introduce new Xero APIs so this integration could be done by a third…
