External Id fields on Contacts, Invoices and Purchase Orders (or URLs for all)
I have spent the past couple of weeks building a pretty hefty integration for a client to integrate their Salesforce platform with Xero.
I have now hit an issue as the client wants to specify a String field to be pushed as the reference... This was not an issue with the Invoices as we used the URL field to define what Salesforce record needs to be updated form the API response.
This would be a very good thing for developers to have a specific "External Id" field so clients can do what they like and we have one for ourselves!

make reporting api developer friendly
The Xero reporting api needs an overhaul to enable to report content in a format that makes it much easier to parse and retrieve data from it. The current way the data is represented requires custom parsers to be created at the consumer's end

Add a Quantity column in the inventory watch list on the Dashboard
Currently on the Dashboard you cannot see the quantity on hand. It would be easier for tracked items on the Dashboard to have a quantity column, so that it's easier for smaller firms to keep track and be able to place orders efficiently.

Update Bank Transaction created by Bank Transfer
When you create a bank transfer, two bank transactions are created one on each bank account. There is no way to edit or reconcile the bank transactions that are created via the API. I would like the ability to do that.

Allow support for html content in the line items description via API.
When invoices are sent to XERO from ProWorkflow, the html characters are showing on the invoices as tags rather than getting rendered properly. Some of our customers who use ProWorkflow and XERO heavily also use the html content in their line item descriptions which obviously causes issues for them as the invoice doesn?t look the same anymore.
I was wondering whether you guys had any thoughts or plans on how we can send html content in the line items over to XERO without stripping all the html characters and get them displayed properly in XERO?

integrate google wallet with xero bank account and payment system
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…

Provide API to retrieve Customer Invoice Reports
We'd like the ability to retrieve customer reports (as data and in PDF format). We could attempt to re-assemble the reports ourselves but for consistency we'd like to be able to retrieve them directly from Xero.

Be able to specify the company required at login
We are operating with multiple companies within a single Xero account. It would be more secure if we could pre-select a company rather than leaving it to the user to select one after they have logged on.
In PHP we call
$XeroOAuth->request('GET', $XeroOAuth->url('RequestToken', ''), $params);i.e. Can we include the company in the $params?

use Contacts' tax details on invoices
This almost seems to be a bug, since the Xero web interface works differently than the API.
In the "Tax" section for a Contact, the help message states: "Each account you code an invoice to will have a default rate as specified in the Chart of Accounts but if you have specified a rate for the Contact here, this rate will override the default rate from the Chart of Accounts."
This works when adding an invoice using the web interface, but adding an invoice using the API results in the wrong tax type and wrong calculated total.

When creating an Invoice via the API, can we get the IDs of each InvoiceItem returned in the response
When creating an Invoice via the API - we receive a response that includes the Invoice and the Lines - but each line does not have its Xero ID. As such, we need to do a subsequent API call to grab the Line IDs.
Without this we don't have a way to EDIT Lines on an Invoice and essentially are deleting all Lines/re-adding these.
Receiving the Line IDs would allow better management of this outside Xero.

set "Offer auto pay" via the API
When creating a repeating invoice via the API and setting "Approve for Sending" is it possible to send in a flag to also set "Offer Auto Pay" (stripe in our case) or at least have it turned on in the payment settings section?
see this Stack Overflow post for more details

Enable Bank feeds to public
Allow bank feed to be retrieved via Xero API. All I want to do is allow my staff to see what payments have been received in the last day so they can release equipment. Very basic. But I go through paying the subscription and setting up the whole thing just to find that obvious and needed option is not available?? If I try to setup an API with the NAB thats going to be a nightmare. Its all there in Xero - if we log in we can see it. So why not allow access with an API?

include the optionID in the "Get budgets" operation
According to the developer reference here https://developer.xero.com/documentation/api/accounting/budgets
The get budgets operation should include both the tracking category option name and ID.Currently, only the name comes through which means we are forced to name match unless we validate the names via a seperate API call before trusting that budgets are for specific options.
This method we are forced to use does not account for name collisions.

enable creation of invoices from accepted quotes via API
Once a quote has been ACCEPTED it would be very useful to then turn this into an Invoice via the API, as per the manual user task of pressing the "Create Invoice" in the Xero web portal.

Allow Invoice only users to use the API
As seen on this link: https://developer.xero.com/faq/permissions#user-permissions , currently only standard users can use the API, however, this makes no sense for my use case, and this is probably the same for other people.
Right now I'm trying to build an app that will automatically create invoices and email them to the contacts, however, I do not want to connect a standard full user to my application, as the returned access token will have full access to all my banking account statements whereas all I need I to create a Sales Invoice, which could be done with a "Sales Invoice only"…

add Contacts as an element to GET Journals
This would allow much greater financial reporting flexibility. Like Tracking Categories, not all Journals have Contacts. Your new Xero report, P&Ls by Contact, leads me to believe the Xero data structure may support this. Thank you!

... make transaction data available via the API
It appears that there are two key things missing from the current version of the Xero API:
The Tables part of the API does not currently have a connection to the Nominal Ledger (Account) Transactions
The Reports part of the API connects to several of the standard reports, but doesn’t connect to the Account Transactions report.
Either of these would allow a full list of transactions to be accessed via the API.
