allow more flexibility for positioning of logos on invoicing template as currently you cannot centralise.
Traditional UK Invoices for small businesses would not look like the ones you can currently produce from your template. There is very little flexibility as to where the logo can be positioned and it does not allow other elements to balance. I do not have the expertise or ability to get someone elese to create a new docx template.

Sort on report column headers
It would be very convenient if report column headers were sortable.
For example, when I run a "Sales by Item" report, I'd like to click on the "Total" column header to re-sort the report by Total, either ascending or descending.
If this sorting was available for all column headers, I could immediately find out:
- best and worst selling product by sales revenue
- best and worst selling product by units moved
- most expensive product
- least expensive product
- lowest and highest average selling price....all in seconds with just a few clicks on column headers, and without…

Make receipting quicker and easier
I am an owner/operator of my own business and even though I do have my bank account linked I generally use my personal credit card for everything so that I can leave my money in an offset account to minimilise interest. It means I do alot of receipting and find the process long and tedious as I have to go through approving / authorising etc just to do reciepts. If there was a quicker way of doing it would make life alot easier.

Enable bulk editing of accounts and tracking data
Currently it is very tedious to manipulate data in the system. I've made some adjustments to the way accounts and tracking are handled, and I am faced with going through hundreds of invoices one by one to create reports that make sense. It would be awesome to be able to check multiple items and modify them in this way (although I can see a problem with multiple line items), or else have some tools to migrate invoice line-items assigned to a particular account or tracking category to another one.

Love the migration idea if you are switching accounts or tracking though, so be sure to add a suggestion!

Create invoices and credit notes via the api as Deleted or Voided
My client requires invoices and credits too be synchronised between our software and Xero.
This includes having invoices deleted and credits voided before they reach Xero.
I would like to create deleted invoices and voided credits first time rather then having to create drafts and then delete/void them in a seperate operation.
You shouldn't be able to do this via the Xero user interface but I should be able to do this via the API.
1 voteThe Xero API must follow the same application logic as the main application. It is for this reason we must decline this request, but we are committed to exposing more functionality via the API such as the ability to void invoices and credit notes via the API once they are created.

Quick and Easy third party authentication
I think there should be a quick way for third party applications to authenticate into the XERO API.. Because as far as I know there currently isn't a quick way for the authentication of users keys and certificates authenticated in a couple of seconds rather than minutes without requesting a lot of information from the web services (give and take how many invoices or contact information has to be recieved).
1 voteHi Michael
It seems like you are basing this on your experience of using a private API application? We also have two other application types: partner API apps and public API apps that use the 3-legged OAuth process which to the end user is as simple as clicking a button in a 3rd-party app, logging into Xero and approving a connection between the other application and their Xero organisation. Overview here: http://blog.xero.com/developer/api-overview/
You can see this in action by using the API previewer – if already connected to an organisation, disconnect and go through the process of connecting again – that is the same workflow as public/partner API apps use.
Note this makes it easy for the end user, but there will always be work involved for the 3rd party applications themselves in terms of setup etc.
Hope that is what you are after!

Add a "Hero" report module position to the Dashboard for beautiful graphical reports
Some UI improvements -
Add a Hero or Showcase module position to the Dashboard. Give users options to select from various graphic reports for things like profit and loss or daily sales.
Or perhaps you allow the user to select and compare activity in multiple accounts and choose the type of output graph.
You may even allow drag-and-drop positioning of multiple custom graphs or reports - on top of the listing of bank activity, accounts receivable, and accounts payable.
Regards,

Be able to have number of days billable in the invoice recievable template
I run a equipment hire company and use xero to itemise and invoice the equipment hired out. The quantity field works well but i supply equipment over a number of days at a day rate. It would really help to be able to specify how many days any quantity of equipment was hired out for. In theory its just another quantity field called DAYS. Please Please Please. :)

Create a section for discounts for any goods and services in an invoice
When entering invoices it would be nice to have a section to put any discounts that have been applied to the goods and services that I am entering.

open standards data & document formats
At the moment I can import & export financial data via an Open Standards CSV format (& well-documented API's), which is great for interoperability with other systems :)
Unfortunately this is not carried through universally, such as Custom Invoice Branding, which is reliant on ms docx formats.
This excludes a significant potion of my own customer-base (many SME's/SMB's reducing overheads) that are increasing not making use of manu ms-based technologies (i.e. office), and are increasingly moving toward more "cloud-based" solutions, such as Google Docs (sample docs are an absolute mess in GDocs) & Open/LibreOffice.Please add support for common, Open…

Allow financial advisers to permanently delete records from the systen
I think that Financial Advisers should have the ability to completely remove a record from the system. Or - this needs to be a permission setting on some future ACL implementation.
What if an error occurs? Especially for folks like me who are synchronizing their billing system. As far as I am concerned - my billing system has the most accurate information. I want to be able to adjust for errors that may occur during sync - because I cannot effect the records in my billing system.
These records have already occured. They are uneditable. Xero is simply copying those…
1 voteHi Aaron, appreciate the suggestion. This is best placed in the community feature requests as it is not API related: https://community.xero.com/business/topic/23/
I can tell you that any full accounting system needs a complete audit trail – that is why deleting is not an option but reversing/undoing is in Xero.

repeating
Make it so repeating invoices can be put on hold - I don't like having to delete them and recreate them later when we put a service on hold. It leaves the door open for mistakes.

Instant Search Box
In my previous software (WHMCS) there was a "Instant Search" fuction which you could type a Invoice Number, Quote Number, Credit Note, or even client name and it would bring up there details instantly if you press enter, or you could see a list of matching results (Like google instant search) and the click the one you want.

Fix bug to allow the tax overrides specified for inventory items to be used when creating invoices.
When you specify a tax override for individual inventory items, they are not applied when creating the invoice via the API (it still uses the accounts tax settings). They are only applied when creating the invoice manually.
