  1. sometime if one person in the office is looking for a particular company by its previous name, this happens from time to time and the name has already been changed in WFM or Xero then you have to switch to Companies office to find out the new name.....

    if you had something similar to companies office where you could have a previous name list so that when you search, if you search an old name it will still bring up the client.

    also some of our clients use an alias as to avoid public actually knowing their real name, most…

  2. Currently Bank Transactions can only be posted to accounts of Bank type. It would be great if they could be posted to any account that has the "Enable payments to this account" box ticked. For example a customer pays a deposit (prepayment) via electronic or online means - some users like to put this to a clearing account or undeposited funds before posting to the bank account.

  3. Whilst you are able to have multiple email address when sending out an invoice, you have to manually delete the one's you do not wish for it to go to. There should be a drop down box with the emails for that contact to pick from.

  4. Not having it wrapped in Paystubs seems inconsistent with the other endpoints. They are all wrapped even if they are passing an id, which indicates they are only returning one item.

  5. It takes a lot of requests to get paystubs for a specific employee. Having the ability to get all or get where employee_id= would reduce the number of requests significantly.

  6. We are a service based company and we often have recurring visits per month for each client. Would it be possible to add the name of the service person or technician against each line entry?
    Both the client and the business have a record of who made the sale or provided the service.

  7. In MYOB you can change a quote to a customer purchase order.

    When the order is created, you can click onto a tab in that order to create a supplier purchase order. That way the details of the customer appears on the supplier's PO. This is great for reference and tracking purposes.

  8. Invoices with more than 60 lines will not POST to xero. The request is to large. It would be nice to load the invoice with 30 lines then append 30 more.

  10. An awesome feauture would be to automatically update stock on hand in Xero AND Shopify when receiving Purchase Orders. Without this it's not feasible to manage inventory in Xero for a Shopify store.

  11. It would be useful to add PO number to invoices as a separate field.

    At the moment we have to add it to the reference.

    Large enterprise clients expect to see their PO number in the top right area of the invoice but it sometimes isn't clearly visible when we put it into the reference and then their procurement department rejects the invoice.

  12. Currently the "Inventory Item Details" report shows all the sales per item, but very difficult to work with. Can you please incorporate a Slaes for the period column in the "Inventory Items Summary"

  13. After you have selected a contact for a bill, invoice, quote etc, put a hot link or button to be able to edit / view details (address, financial) without having to keep going into contacts and searching for the contact checking and returning

  14. The green sent tick is great when looking up invoices,
    But it would be REALLY helpful to have say a blue or red tick for invoices sent via email!
    I write quite a few invoices everyday - and sometimes email systems don't work, I have found the email mailer demon to be unreliable in the registering of emails not received by clients.
    Without it registering on the history inside the actual invoices, I am none the wiser.

  15. For example, creating invoice payments return invoice contact summaries in responses.

    If contact details are required on the client side the result is a subsequent API call to retrieve them.

    In this case the overhead of the subsequent call is greater than the cost of returning the information in the invoice payment response. This issue is compounded due to Xero API's rate limiting on requests.

    An optional parameter 'enableSummaries=false' would be nice.

    I understand that for cases like retrieving multiple invoices that summaries are useful but for single result responses, such as invoice payments the current functionality seems inconsistent. The…

  16. When I send "<CurrencyCode>usd</CurrencyCode>" to a CAD base ledger (with USD as a valid currency) the invoice currency becomes CAD. But if I change it to "<CurrencyCode>USD</CurrencyCode>" then it works fine. (data is coming from Stripe, which uses lower case).

    Xero should always capitalize the currency code.

  18. When looking at invoices that have been generated by Xero - it would be good to be able to identify the customer further ie. I have one large Customer and all the sub customers could be easily identified if the name could be put in the reference at the top of the invoice and then when viewing the main customer you can see the sub-customer.

  19. When listing the statements in accounts receivable to print or email could there be a button to select 'no zero amounts shown' so only the debtors with amounts owing show

    This would be so much easier to select statements to print or email at the end of the month
