    We’re closing this request out and asking that developers suggest or vote for the specific features you’re after as it’s easier to get feedback to you on each request this way and also free up your votes. I’d like to reassure you we’re committed to offering the best API we can.

    For me the major features that I'm interested in are:
    1. Being able to retrieve the exchange rate that Xero is going to use when converting the price list items back to my currency (so that I can use the same price when calculating the alt-currency amount) - this would be a nice easy-win and would allow us to simulate currency-aware price list items.
    2. Being able to define price list items through the API - we are reselling products that have a complex pricing structure, so creating price-list items manually is time-consuming, lord knows what we will do if/when our suppliers update their pricing structures (we can handle it easily on this end, but having to manually enter the price-list-items is a real pain)

    @owen ... if you re-read the original request, the idea is to make the API your core application and your UI a client to that API ... by doing this you don't need to devote ANY developer time to maintaining the API, thus freeing up your coders to work on more productive tasks ;)
