I agree with all, we send monthly statements to our customers (as most of the world does) and our customers pay by different means (credit card, direct debit, BPay , EFT....) thus receive an invoice matching their payment method.

Surely it is logical to send a custom matching statement based on their payment method. It should really be a default setting , however Xero provides a Group/Smartlist function, but you cannot use this to send statements based of the Group or Smartlist.

you are forced to send the one statement template to all customers.

I think groups should be made more powerful too so you can set custom invoice reminders for example.

This feature would allow us to give clients a concise and detailed overview of their total owing amount across multiple entities.
Often clients with multiple entities lose track of individual statements and therefore miss payments, resulting in our business receivables rising while we chase invoices for payments.

this would save alot of time rather than manually generating Aged Receivable Detail reports for Customer Contact Groups

Exactly. I don't know how many times this needs to be highlighted before Xero acts on creating this feature. Should have been available as a standard feature. You can create and send Invoices by Contact Group so why not create Statements by Contact Group?

This would really be useful functionality and save a lot of time.

Hi Mariett, make a contact group for the Centralised AP Dept, and run the Aged Receivable Detail Report - filter for that contact group - you can then email the report to the Centralized AP Group. Hope this helps!

We have childcare centres that get their accounts paid by a centralised Accounts Payable Dept and they need one statement per month.

This would be really useful, for internal processes if we can check our client's statements grouped per manager portfolio rather than each manager individually selecting clients statements.

Yes!!!! This!!! Please can you add a function to allow statements to be sent to groups. This will be so so useful. The functionality would allow us to send to groups such as: EOM payers, 20th month payers and even have a group selection for accounts in query that we can deselect from the statement. This would make the process so much easier than having to deselect each of these contacts individually everytime we send a statement. If Xero could look into this idea - this would be amazing!!!

Disappointed to see that nearly 10 years later this option has not been implemented. Would save us a lot of time.

I already commented on this request but yes, as it is something that should have been sorted and should now be an option I decided to add another comment. Come on XERO, listen and respond please.

Here's another comment on this idea - I see that the idea was originally posted in 2013, and nearly TEN YEARS later, we still have no solution? PRETTY PLEASE?!!

AGREED!! Yes, this is a must. Xero allows you to create Contact Groups - this I find very useful when creating Invoices but when you want to send Statements to a Contact Group this is not an option!!

We use contact groups for different categories of Clients, it is counter intuitive to have to manually select (or de-select) Clients just to be able to email statements!! CRITICAL - please fix!

Yes, this is a must. Xero allows you to create Contact Groups - this I find very useful when creating Invoices but when you want to send Statements to a Contact Group this is not an option!!

Its crazy this isnt possible! I have to run an aged receivables by contact group and completely format a statement myself. Come on Xero, this should be easy to sort!

Crazy that this is not possible - filters would be easy here!
