  This would be such a great tool to improve efficiency in the invoice approval process! Please include this in Xero's future product updates.

  This would be such an important feature for us. We are looking to go paperless but finding it difficult to without this kind of authorisation feature.

  what a no brainer and a simple workflow.
Why is this taking so so long. You are charging a lot of fees now so there cannot be any excuse about not having enough funding for back end improvements.The market has caught up and will soon overtake Xero due to speed of improvement. This is such a simple workflow we are having to resort to trying to API it ourselves from Xero into Zoho books (which does do this)

  You need to be alerted otherwise you are relying on humans to check and that doesnt always happen

  My team agree; we need an option to recieve an alert message each time a sales invoice has been submitted for approval by a staff member

  This would be extremely helpful, along with an email to the submitter advising whether approved or declined. This most definitely would help with streamlining the process and eliminating delays and wasted time.

  This would be extremely helpful to make the process more efficient. A lot of time is wasted having to submit invoices to approvers for approval through email or other sources. Would have thought this was a given with the approval function in Xero.

  The ability for the originator of the purchase order to be advised of approval so they can complete the purchase process

  This would be very useful to avoid unnecessary internal, time consuming messages.

  This would be a much appreciated addition that would help avoid unnecessary internal emails/calls/messages asking for approval.

  Simple change which would make the whole approval process much more streamlined and usable.
