Contact - Having custom fields on invoices and contacts
Ability to add a custom fields to a contact record that is able to be displayed on invoices
Purpose: Ability to include more information that’s unique to customers/business/industry that assist the transaction and relationship between customers
Hi everyone, we thoroughly appreciate your engagement and sharing how custom fields would be advantageous to you here.
With lots of work for 'building on beautiful' underway atm, we want to be honest that custom fields is not planned in the near term.
Some in the idea here, may find the recent addition of Notes that can be added within the Contact Details section of a contacts record useful in being able to record and view specific detail relative to a contact at present - More on this shared here
We'll continue to evaluate the viability of largely voted ideas such as this when there is resource, however this unlikely in the next 12 months.

We are now often required to send a commercial invoice with products. Is is now a requirement when sending with DHL. It would be extremely heplful if there was a custom made commercial template that was called Commercial invoice instead of Tax invoice with fields for net weight, gross weight, HS code, dimensions, and place of manufacture

Would be really helpful to have a custom field on purchase invoices where you can record your order number or any other data that would assist you when trying to locate a certain item if not using inventory.

To have Invoice headers, bolded, would be perfect.

Custom field at the top of the invoice,quote that passes through?
Surely this is very simple to implement?

Is ATO compliant invoicing (ie: displaying customer ABN for invoices greater than $1,000) a feature request? Seriously?

I would like to add a RR Price column to Inventory and Invoice

This would make a huge difference when a client needs to quote their supplier job number plus their customer's purchase order number - currently one or other ends up buried in the body of the invoice, which can result in rejection/non-payment of the sales invoice.

I work in the disability space, billing participants on the National Disability Insurance Scheme. It is required to include the date as part of invoicing.
Competitor programs such as Quickbooks provides a date selection field.
It seems to be a simple and obvious fix.

It would benefit many of our clients to have this feature added to Xero.

This would be so beneficial for some of our clients that use more than one referencing when sending invoices so this would be a very useful too to have.

At the moment there is only one reference field on a Bill. Ideally we would want two fields - one for an internal reference number and one for the external document number provided on the bill from the supplier.

Customer ABN and issuer ABN are both required on invoices to comply with Australian taxation law. Without this field they are missing a key element. Please remedy immediately.

In addition to "ContactTaxNumber" please include field name to display the "Business Registration Number of a contact" as well. Thanks.

There are three custom fields that my invoices require in order to super charge the invoice/payment claim specific to my industry. These three fields are critical, and now I'm having to come up with other creative ways to get the information onto my invoice.
There fields are: Due Date: Project Ref: Period From/To:Just saying the invoice is due in 7 days does not cover me under the CONSTRUCTION CONTRACTS ACT 2002. With the additional fields, it enables me to then use the payment regime under the ACT.

we appreciate if the invoice may include "service start date" and "service end date" field for revenue recognition purpose. Currently we compulsorily include it together in the "Description" field, we spent a lot of time to massage the export data for analysis and for revenue recognition.
