I need to create an invoice which has the following fields
date, collect from, deliver to, qty, product, del note no and total. i was very disappointed that xero cant do this

Addition of an additional field for date of service is a feature that is available in other accounting systems such as Quick books and also an important feature required to interface with other applications such as patient management systems. I waste a large amount of time having to manually edit the date into the description field for hundreds of invoices.

The ability to customise fields on invoices, especially a date field per item is critical to our invoicing. Currently, we have to edit the description field to include the date of the service.

I have to copy/paste formatted text, so that I can fill my "custom field" information into each product row, should the need arise. I also have to switch between saved formatted text documents to make sure I copy/paste the "custom field" text that is appropriate to the service done. I have created a custom invoice template but we are limited to the use of pre-defined fields.

We have used the Skype field to date to store a customer categorisation - that we then use when we pull the data through to Power BI. Now that the Skype field is no longer visible we'll start to use the NZBN field instead. But it would be great to have a user-defined field or similar to store such information

Legal billing requires each billing item to have a date. It does not require an item number. It has been a very frustrating process to try to customise the invoice to suit our requirements.

This is absolutely necessary as this may be required to give visibility to reseller customers who are selling products or services on to an end user. This has been open for a long time; please can this get some attention?

This is industry critical and has a small CSM CRM linkage

to be clear, we do not need to surface the custom fields on invoices. we need it for reporting. if this is possible another way, please let me know.

Its very much required. We shall be able to add the maximum possible details to the invoices

This is very much wanted. Please implement this, so many happy customers with this function!

@Rach - I don't think they have. The User voices should speak for themselves, 10 requests in January alone!!

Can XERO please give us an update on where this is up to. Has the Development team even reviewed this?
As businesses are being requested by their Customers to provide additional information to enable the Customer to better track expenditure, this is CRITICAL

Hi..
It is important to be able to have a column to the far right of an invoice table showing the total amounts also due in local or base currency Amount (Base or Default Currency), which we understand is NOT possible with the current Xero setup with invoicing...

because we use Xero for different countries, and on the invoice for local VAT compliance reasons, we are supposed to display the details all translated into local currency, yet we would like to continue invoicing in USD, EUR, GBP etc.. which should then also be shown in local currency at least in the final columns.

Hi Team,

In the invoice header, I want to add the custom field that's called campaign month. so it's possible to add. if yes then can please send the document for that?

The problem is if create the invoice for the two months on the same date then the Issue date is getting the same.

Please check the here attached invoice header screenshot.

Custom Contact fields, along with the ability to display them in a custom invoice template, would be a very useful feature for us.

Currently we are working around not having custom fields by repurposing some of the fields that are available, but not being able to add extra fields or associate two Contacts with an invoice and use fields from both is probably the biggest impediment to our continued use of Xero as our business grows.

need date as a custom field

With bodyshops it one invoice per customer on a daily bases and if its an insurance company involved then it could be a split invoice were the customer pays the excess and or vat part of the total invoice in some cases. The fields are a help to search for a quote or invoice because customers never no the invoice or quote number but they do no there reg. number.
This is why we need to do one invoice or quote per customer

Having custom fields is vital to our Invoicing system.

The majority of our customers are Invoiced once a week (at their request) with 5 to 6 days worth of Dockets/Jobs to be entered, with date, addresses of delivery &/or pick up & PO's for each individual job. It's common practice for 10+ jobs per day, x 6 day's to be all included in one Invoice per truck. Our Customers require Invoicing per truck. So this will go from 6 Invoices in the current system to 100's & 100's of individual Invoice's in your current system.
We have been Invoicing this way on QuickBooks for years.

We are in the transition period of swapping from QuickBooks to Xerox right now. My customers will not be happy with having 60+ Invoices per Truck.

This will create a large headache and unnecessary financial expenses for our business & the majority of our major Customers businesses. I can not afford to lose Customer's over something that is very simple & common practice in the other major accounting software programs. I was hoping that moving to Xerox was going to be a positive move for us.

Please fix this so I don't have to go back to QuickBooks as I have heard so many wonderful thing's about Xerox. Hence the move.

Yes, I need custom fields to allow me to upload membership exiry dates against each contact, and include that date in the membership invoice line details.
