Hi everyone, as much as we appreciate the feedback and interest of being able to receive a notification of whether an invoice has successfully sent. The team priority right now is around the body of the invoice within Xero. 

We want to be transparent in this here and will move the status of the idea back to submitted. 

We will let you know of any change.

    Xero should send a confirmation email when an invoice has been delivered, as an acknowledgement from customer. In this scenario you will not worry if he got it by email or not! Wondering why Xero missed this important feature? anyone has a solution let me know.

    Xero should alert you when email address is omitted when sending invoice?
    Recently I forgot to add an email address on a client file and only discovered it when the account was overdue.
    An alert would have alleviated the error.

    This is CRUCIAL.
    I've just received an email that wasn't pleasant to read, in regard to 'poor service levels' after a customer didn't receive a quote that was promised.
    I did send the quote, earlier than promised - yet Xero didn't send it. If I delve in to the 'history and notes' there is a line there showing the action as 'not sent'.

    Xero has the ability to recognise that there was an error, yet fails to notify the client of the issue.

    THIS MUST BE ADDRESSED. People will lose business through this flaw in the system.

    Just adding that this should be a NOTIFICATION to make it obvious it hasn't been sent, the existing system requires a few clicks by the user to go searching for that information in the invoice listing - and why would you search for it when as far as you know the invoice and the reminder/s were sent?

    Invoice Reminders - if a reminder is not sent because an email address is missing, please send a notification so the user is aware nothing has been sent.

    Get a notification if a recurring sales invoice does not get delivered to the customer.

    Ability to get a reminder and notification through email and text message when users’ send invoices.

    Purpose: To notify client/customer that invoice has been sent, so they don’t forget.
