Dashboard - Show Bills and Invoices that are in 'Awaiting Approval'
Ability to show bills and invoices that are in ‘awaiting approval’ status.
Purpose: Saving users’ time from having to click on ‘invoices owed to you’.

We've now got multiple people involved in the accounts payable... and not having 'Awaiting Approval' on the dashboard component is a pain.

Juliet Hughes commented
This would be really useful in our business so that those awaiting approval do not get missed and not sent to client

Jen Thompson commented
Absolutely critical to have visibility of this for our business also.

This is definitely an easy and worthwhile improvement that would be useful to many, myself included.

Hi - I don't understand why you can show "Draft bills"in the dashboard but not "Bills awaiting approval" - is this something that will be rectified in the future as it appears that i am not the only one who would like this. Thank you

This feature would be a huge help with our payment runs. Often happens the Aged Payables is reviewed and a payment run is setup.. then its discovered a bill awaiting approval was overlooked and missed the run. You show 'Draft bills' on dashboard so why not 'Awaiting Approval'? Just as important if not more.

This has been requested by several of my clients as being a useful addition on the dashboard.

We need this feature if we are to transition to e-invoicing. Our accounts team review and code the draft invoices which then need to be approved by managers - and the managers need to easily see if any are awaiting approval.

A report to show which invoices have been submitted by users for approval. At the moment, there is nothing showing invoices that historically submitted for approval except for the History and Notes report - but that is just a summary.

Hey!
I'm the developer/director of a tool called InBill.
What you're asking for here is one of the many features of the software; I'd love to hear more about your requirements and give you a demo.
Hope to hear from you soon.

I would really like this visibility from the dashboard. I would also like to see 'bills awaiting approval' included on the cash flow projection. At the moment the company owner is slow to approve bills (this process is unlikely to change!), which means that they are not visible on the dashboard until pretty much the day they are going to be paid. Likewise for the cash flow projection. If I want an accurate cash flow projection I have to make one in a spreadsheet. I see this as a huge failing by Xero and I can't understand why 'drafts' are shown on the dashboard but 'awaiting approval' are not, it's crazy and causes me heaps of extra work each month.

Lol, an 8 year old suggestion? It's literally a hyperlink. C'mon xero.

100% behind this request.
I can't understand why Xero hasn't instigated this already!!!!!

James Parker commented
It is absurd that this isn't already a thing.

100% agree with all prior comments

Ths is really important and it makes no sense that awaiting approval bills don't automatically appear on the dashboard.

Hi team, this would be such a time saver! Approver does not see this on dashboard so doesn't notice there is an action to be done.
Then there is a delay in being able to process bills and invoices - and a manual step of chasing the approver. It is all adding to wasted time for every job. Please add this in asap -
Leanne Reid commented
The fact that this idea looks to be first shared in 2015 and it still hasn't been done is very disappointing..... Anyone that works in a business where the approver is different to the inputter will understand how crucial this is!!

100% agree - bring this is now please!

Agree with other user's comments.
It is ridiculous that this does not appear. This is a bug not a "feature" or an "idea".
Very disappointing that Xero have not fixed this.
