BAS - Draft GST bill to contain billing information
When filling the GST to ATO through Xero and selecting to Lodge and save bill as draft, I can't find any billing information in the draft bill (nor approved bill) .I don't know where to pay this bill, I need the billing details which have not transferred with the bill.
I have to do this manually, save the pdf to desktop then attach to draft bill (do it the old way like 20 years ago)???
This should not be a new idea. It should be a minimum to have a draft bill with the related bill attachment.
Can you do…2 votesHi there, when lodging directly through Xero, payment details are displayed at the top of the statement page once it's been lodged, including various payment options such as Bpay, credit card, and others.
Please note that these payment details are only available when you are connected to the ATO in Xero and lodging directly through the platform. This is because the payment details are provided directly by the ATO and are specific to your entity.

Products & Services - Abillity to Attach Supplier Quote to Product
We use Products and Services for parts that we buy in as well as what we make and sell and it would be great to have the ability to attach documents just like with invoicing so that original quotes may be attached for future convenient reference.
1 voteYou can already attach files to your Products and Services, Simon. If you open the item from the list , you'll see an option to Attach files in the top right of the page. 😊

Retain the edit, copy and void features for bills and invoices. These are used all the time in our organisations
Accountants need to to be able to amend the account to which an invoice or one of the lines on it is allocated, as we can with the edit function in Classic Invoicing. We also need to be able to edit the Tracking Category of an invoice or line on the invoice. This is vital for our organisation and likely to be so for others businesses where invoices and bills are booked by financial staff and checked by Accountants. The ability to copy a previous invoice is also used all the time and saves a huge amount of time. Also…
2 votesAppreciate your idea here, Michael. While it won't be possible to retain Classic invoicing, it is possible to Edit, Copy and Void in New Invoicing.
That said, a couple of the Copy to options (to a purchase order or bill) are planned for new invoicing but aren't there quite yet. You can stay updated on these through the ideas I've linked.

NZ Payroll - Option to show Holiday Pay accrual as hour value
Payroll>Employees>Leave currently has leave balances in days and dollar values, this makes it difficult to determine what the amount should be either way.
As the dollar amount may change due to pay rises or an average applied as per statutory legislation, it would be better if all fields were hours based values. This would make it consistent and easier as a consumer to use.
As a user, I should not have to be trying to calculate what the values should be and if something doesn't appear to be right, I should not need to contact Xero to find out how…48 votesHi team, we've recently released changes in Xero Payroll. As you may have seen you can now set up working patterns for employees to more accurately calculate employees wages and leave. While Holiday pay remains in dollars, Annual Leave will show in weeks and FBAPS Leave will now be shown in days.
Just to note, Holiday Pay is not a one to one correlation to Annual Leave, however if you prefer to have leave in hours you could consider enabling leave in advance. You can see our article here for more information on managing employees leave.
We appreciate your interest and sharing with us through Xero Product Ideas.

New invoicing - Enter key decimal point
The old version we used to be able to hit the Enter button whilst we are keying in the number keys to the right of our keyboard. In the new version we have come to realise that the Enter Button makes the decimal points pop up... instead of just being able to put in 50 for fifty dollars. I have been using the Enter key over near those numbers on the right since xero began and I am really hoping this is fixed ASAP if that is ok please
1 voteThanks for raising this with us in product ideas, Leanne. Appreciate it's been a few months since you first started this, however just coming back across and testing with the current experience it appears this is now working as you'd like to see here - When entering data in fields of a row in the invoice, if you press enter you'll move across to the next field. Also within an amount field like Qty or Price when you type in a figure and press enter this will move fields and round the amount to the nearest whole number, unless you have inserted a decimal point.
Let me know if there's anything you feel I'm missing within your idea here. Thanks!

when creating bills & uploaded invoices receipts via app need to show on the desktop in account transaction screen
when reconciling & uploading attached invoices/ receipts via app they don't show on xero desktop application in accounts transaction screen. It currently shows items as reconciled but with no uploaded documents icon.
1 voteHi Dean, from what you've described in behaviour it sounds like the files you've uploaded are attached to the invoice or bill directly.
If you've attached a file to a Receive or Spend money or Payment directly when reconciling on the Xero Accounting app you'll see a file icon next to the transaction on the Account Transactions list when viewing the bank account on the desktop that you can click and will open a preview modal of the files attached.
If you have attached files directly to your invoices or bills you'll be able to view the file icon next to these transactions from the relevant Sales or Bill list screens on your desktop.
If you'd like some help to confirm what you're viewing here it'd be good to raise a case with our specialists through Xero Central who have tools to get a closer look at your organisation and…

Manual Journal - Keyboard to move to next row
I use repeating journal entries a lot and hence all the fields except debit and credits are filled out. Might be good to be able to use the keyboard arrows to quickly go from one row to the next in a column field and even be able to go from credit cell to debit cell by just clicking on the left arrow button.
2 votesHi Brett, on doing a little more testing you can use the Enter key and the up and down arrows to move to the previous or next row of the same cell 😊
Just make sure you press Enter first and then you'll be able to move, up, down, left or right using the arrow keys.

Invoice Should Remain in the Same Format Once Sent
When an invoice is approved it must stay in the shape of an original table where the ledger account column and the tracking category columns are present, (presenting this information in a line with a small font is ridiculous).
2 votesHi Melissa, coming across your idea here you may have already noticed that a couple of weeks ago we released an update to the view of an invoice so all details are now shown in separate columns (similar to classic). 😊
Thanks for your feedback and sharing how we could improve things for you, here.

New invoicing - Pay now link in email
We use many xero accounts, and for two of them, when accessing the invoice link, the invoice appears first, followed by a "PayNow" card payment option in the top left corner. However, for the other two accounts, the card payment window appears first without the invoice, which causes inconvenience to customers. (Of course, there is a download option at the bottom right.) Please change the settings to make the invoice appear first.The specialist can't fix this, and the different output seems to be a xero system issue. Please fix it soon.
4 votesHi everyone, within Email Settings you can edit the email template and deselect 'Include action to online invoice and detail summary'. This will strip back the look of the email a bit but this means the pay now, or Review and pay link will stop showing and instead you can just include the link to view the online invoice for your customers.
If you'd like to have a look at how this appears before implementing in your org, try sending yourself an invoice from the demo company.

Accounts - Ability to lock history from previous financial year backward
Offer option to lock last and previous year's data to prevent unintentional corruption of "good data".
Users would then have to slow down and take a great deal of care if changes to last and previous year's accounts is actually required.3 votesThanks for the responses to my last update, team. Based on this we'll shift this idea to delivered.
As previously shared - You can set lock dates that'll stop changes being made to transactions during a past period. Just as an alternative, if you'd like to keep a record of reports at a point in time you could also look to Publish reports in Xero. 🙂

Bills - Duplicate warning when emailing bills into Xero
If you enter a duplicate supplier invoice via an email link into Xero bills, then Xero should advise/warn you that there is already an invoice in the system with the same reference/ amount. There should be the same warning that is given when a duplicate invoice is loaded into Xero bills manually.
12 votesHi team, pleased to share that duplicate detection has now been released and available to you all. Xero will compare the Contact, reference and amounts of bills and credit notes in your org to help identify possible duplicates. You can then go to the Review page to take action on any Unpaid bills (Draft or Awaiting Payment).
While Paid bills will also be picked up, if you need to take any action or view bills you'll just want to return to the bills list to access these.
Thanks for your interest and staying looped in with us through the idea, here.

New invoicing - Due in 10 days
Could you please add "due in 10 days" in the drop down on an invoice?
1 voteIf this is the common selection for due date you can set this up as a Default in your Invoice Settings, Denise. It's also possible to set this up as a default for individual contacts if you'd prefer too. 🙂
Alternatively, you might find it handy to use the shortcut when entering your invoices. You can simply type +10 in the due date field and it will set the date to 10 days after the Invoice Issue date.

Invoicing - Keep Classic Email Template as an option
Feedback on the Updated Email Invoice Template: Prioritising Client Experience Over Financial Details
As a business owner wholly committed to providing exceptional customer service, I've encountered significant issues with the new email invoice template that I believe warrant urgent attention from the Product Team.
Focus on Experience, Not Payments: Our aim is to immerse our clients in a seamless service experience. By prominently featuring payment details in the email, it inadvertently shifts the client's focus from the quality of service to financial transactions. Clients should have the option to review detailed financials at their discretion by accessing the invoice themselves.

2 votesThanks for your feedback, Andrew.
We appreciate the new view may not be to everyone's liking. If you'd prefer to strip this back, you can edit your Sales invoice Email template/s to uncheck the option of 'Include action to online invoice and detail summary' as shown in my screenshot.

New Invoicing - Show stock level when adding a Tracked inventory item
When typing a quote, available stock used to show (when you typed a figure in the "quantity" field (if available stock was less than required the open window would turn red) but it doesn't now. It would be great if this feature were also added to invoices (and quotations as before) so that one didn't need to check stock on a different page for each item being invoiced. I note that it shows when typing a credit note, so it must be possible!
168 votesHi everyone, back again and pleased to share that viewing stock on hand is now with all users in new invoicing!
We appreciate the engagements you've all shown to let us know the importance of this feature when invoicing and how being able to view how many items of tracked inventory you have when invoicing, enhances your workflow. Thank you for feeding back and sharing your thoughts with us here.
Do keep joining, or start new ideas to let us know further changes you'd like to see developed.

New Invoicing - Populate Discount from Contact's Sales Defaults
New Invoicing: In the classic invoicing, I can click in the discount area and the discount set in a customer's profile is automatically entered. I don't want to have to go in and look up each customer's discount every time I create an invoice. In the new invoicing, when I click in there it just waits for me to type something in.
7 votesHi team, from new invoicing once you add a contact any sales defaults you have saved will be applied. Simply enter a Qty or Price and the discount saved for that contact will be applied.
If you're not seeing the discount column on your invoice, click the show/hide fields on the left above the invoice body and make sure this has been selected.

Bills List view - Highlight when line selected
The new Bill view has lost the ability to highlight a certain bill when you tick the box next to it. In the old version if you ticked the box that bill would remain highlighted in grey so it was easy visually to know which bill you're currently working on. This has stopped since the new Bills view has come in. Any chance to can add it back? In the attached screen shot you can see a bill has been ticked but it remains white like all the others in the list.
36 votesNice update before the weekend, team. Highlighting in the bills list view is now available 😊
When you next select bills these'll be highlighted on the screen.

Invoicing - Approve and send invoices when customer is over their credit limit
I would like to request the Xero add the feature to be able to approve and send customer invoices even when they have reached there credit limit in the new invoicing. Currently this feature is available in the classic invoicing of Xero. Xero are forcing everyone to move to the new invoicing from September 2024.
We use an external software for our customer invoicing and then import these into xero the following day after the sale has occurred and email the invoices to the customer. Moving to new invoicing currently means that for any customer that is over the credit…2 votesHi Afaik, as part of setting a credit limit there is an option to "Block new invoices when credit limit is reached" if you'd still like to be able to send invoices once their limit is reached you'll just want to edit the Contacts record to deselect this option.

Sales invoices - Tax on each Line item to show
Ability to have the tax amount show on each line item and not just in the total below or even better so that sales tax automatically shows within the line item amount as per on screen, but when Printed to PDF it shows no Tax amounts per line.
4 votesHi team, returning to the idea. To confirm, with standard branding you can simply choose whether the amounts shown on your invoices to customers are tax inclusive or tax exclusive.
In terms of default tax the Tax Amount column that can be shown on the invoice within Xero - it's possible to use an advanced branding theme and customise the DocX template to add the TaxOnLineAmount merge field to make this visible to your customer. If you'd prefer to not show Tax Rate or Tax name you can also use the advanced branding template to customise and remove these fields.

Online filing NZ IRD tax returns for GAP payments directly from XERO
When I was paying just GST, I could file my tax return directly to the IRD from XERO. I am now paying GAP (GST and Provisional Tax) and no longer get the option to file my GST return directly from XERO - I can only file it manually, which is obviously much more time consuming. XERO, can you please make changes to your setup so that GAP payments can be filed with the NZ IRD straight from XERO. Thank you.
1 voteHi Harry, sorry it's taken some time to respond to your post here. It is currently possible to file GAP from your Xero organisation. I'd recommend raising a case with our specialists at Xero Support for some extra detail and help with this.
