I am also very surprised this is not already possible. We also collect by Direct Debit so need to advise customers on their invoice in advance of it being due, and need the invoices totals to populate the direct debit run 2 days before the due date (due date = date of the invoice).

We collect by direct debit and need this info to ensure accuracy. We rent property so invoice date and due date are both on the 1st. Drives our accountant crazy that we are invoicing January's rent in December! Screws up GST too.
In a large competitor's software, this is just a simple check box and space to indicate how many days early to generate the invoice.

This is critical because it allows my team time to check the draft invoices before the actual invoice date.

Yes, this would be a great addition, and would make repeating trasnsactions much more flexible!

It would be handy to be able to print repeating transactions in advance of the date as we use them as a delivery docket. We were able to do this with MYOB recurring transactions.

Would be great if we could have a separate date for generating repeating invoices to the date of the invoice- if we need the invoices to be generated on the 10th but need time for them to be checked and approved before being sent out on the 15th it would be good if we didn't have to manually change the date on each and every invoice!

This would be very helpful as you cannot print pdf to see the draft etc when it has not yet been generated as it is not as at the invoice date

I work in a nursery where we raise the invoices for the following month before the end of the current month so they can go home with the children. I didn't realise this would be an issue when choosing to move from quick books to xero as xero seems to be more sophisticated. Raising post dated repeating invoices is simple in quick books.
