  1. cater for invoices to be drafted/prepared off-line

    I normally work in areas where mobile/cell signals a poor. I therefore have to keep a separate Timesheet and invoice when I am back in the office. I find this incredibly irritating, because invoices done later always take a lot longer. My own accounting system based on spreadsheets did not have this restriction. Xero may in the long run save my bookkeeper some time, but for me, the person at the coal face, it is quite a lot less efficient because of this inability to do invoices on customer sites.

  2. View community posts as JSON

    This is for the community forum.

    I specifically want it to be able to fetch reviews about a company as we are looking to build a dashboard that combines all of the platforms that we get regular reviews on (Shopify, Xero, GetApp, Capterra) in order to better manage this process.

    For example, it would be good to be able to fetch this as JSON.

  3. on the Dashboard have a post it note where you can leave messages for other users that log in!!

    would be great on the Dashboard to have a post it note.
    you can then leave info for someone else who might log in from a different location...where you can edit it delete txt when done etc.

  6. Allow Bank Transactions - Receive Type to allow a line with a Quantity and zero dollar line/unit amount as does the UI..

    The UI allows for a bank transaction line with a quantity but zero dollar unit amount and line amount. The API should allow the same function.

  7. Add 'does not contain' to the list of filter options in bank rules

    I have a group of transactions coming in through the bank where only one small part of the refence is common to them all - this I have used for a bank rule.

    However, there are other transactions including this small suffix which get accidently picked up from time to time - I would like to be able to exclude these from the bank rule to prevent accidental mispostings.

  8. GET Organisation: expose 'edition' field

    It would be useful for us (and I'm assuming others) if you were able to find out which edition (Starter, Standard etc) of Xero an organisation was configured as

  11. Can we have the old feature of the A-Z tabs at the top when searching for contacts?

    We used to have A-Z tabs on the top of the window to enable us to search for a contact. Could this feature be re-enabled as currently we cannot browse the contacts - we have to type in a name.

  12. When entering a bill, could there be an option included to repeat certain information on the next entry?

    This feature requests really applies to Bill entry. Is it possible to include a feature where there is an option to re-enter a new bill to the same supplier and where the date previously entered will automatically repeat? This would make data entry quite a bit quicker.

  14. Make Purchase Order contacts work the same as Invoice contacts

    Keeping with continuity, make a purchase order contact the same as a contact via an invoice or credit note, meaning the Xero API automatically matches them to the Name field or adds them if it can't find them.

    Currently we must upload an address book and then link the contact using the ContactID or ContactNumber for Purchase Orders.

    Why have one way of doing something, then another for something else?

  15. cash forecast

    I would like to be able to do a monthly cash flow projection. I would start with the cash flow from the past 12 months. I would present the average for each line item and give the forecaster the option to increase or decrease the figure for the coming 3 months. It would need some work to break out the revenue figure by account and to give a way to put in a projection for accounts or opportunities yet to be won by the sales team.

  18. add the ability to hide empty fields for clients

    When in the Client view, it would be helpful if you could opt to only show fields containing data.
    With the ability to enter a large variety of data fields, the page is quite long, however, for many clients a limited number of fields actually contain data.
    If the view could be minimised to only show the fields that actually contain data, the page would be shorter and easier to see the information at a glance without the need to scroll through the page.

  20. incorporate LawPay into your payment services options

    Many lawyers cannot use just any Merchant Services provider, but Law Pay provides the necessary features for firms. It would be great if you could partner with them as Clio does.
