Purchase Orders - Physical Address as default delivery address
Ability to make Physical address as default delivery address when creating Purchase orders.
Purpose: It’s saving users time rather than change the address manually.
Hi all 👋 thanks for sharing this idea and contributing your feedback on how it would help save time and reduce delivery errors. This has all been sent to and considered by our product teams.
I wanted to jump in here to share that this is a feature that our team are looking to develop in Purchase Orders in the long term - there are a few other pieces of work lined up before. We'll shift to Under review and keep you updated of any progress, here.
In the meantime, one way to make the physical address the default delivery address when creating purchases orders is by using a Custom DOCX branding theme, and either use the relevant merge fields, or even enter the default address in plain text on the template. You might then have a separate ‘normal’ theme if you want some orders to go to the Postal Address instead. We have help about how you can create an advanced invoice template that you can draw into.

Would be a good time saver to have the ability to choose your default address

We need to make sure our goods get delivered to the warehouse and not our office.
If inserting the delivery address gets missed then lorries end up having to block the road while making a difficult turn and wasting everyone's time.
If the address could be set to the warehouse by default then there would be no risk of that small step being missed when a PO is raised in a hurry. -

This should be a basic option, it isn't a "feature". We have more than one site and most of our purchase orders are for items that we require for delivery to other sites. Crazy that this isn't just a simple selection in the settings

I'm very keen on this idea as it saves having to select the physical address on every single PO

This should be a basic option, not a 'feature.' Users have been asking for this for years! Simply adding it to another forum is avoidance

It would be really helpful if default addresses can be set on purchase orders. The postal address is not always the delivery address for orders. Xero can this be something you can do for us

This would make sense

I must say it is very frustrating that we can not get an answer from xero Apart from sending me here to read that everyone else has same problem , would be better to just fix it . Have had companies cancel my orders due to having PO Box instead of delivery address.

We require our physical address to appear on all Purchase Orders for deliver/ courier purposes. We need this to be an option as a default please

Most of our purchases get delivered via courier who require the physical address. Would love to be able to save all our purchase orders with the delivery address. Can't deliver to a PO Box.... just say'n.
