I need this as for all invoices they need a copy of expenses to pay them.

Would be very very helpful and a real time saver. Currently very time consuming to have to go back to the original payment and download the receipt.

I’ve just sent my first invoice to a customer explaining that the 67 referenced receipts are not attached but I have them on file if he would like to see… Lo and behold he has asked to see them so I now need to collate all receipts and send them over to him. Times this by multiple projects occurring at once and it’s a complete waste of time and is actually impacting on customer satisfaction on our end.

This is the only reason we did not switch to Xero after the free trail.

I support this feature wholeheartedly. We pass on the evidence to our customers for reimbursable expenses. ATM this porcess is super laborious. Consequently, we have been using Smart Receipts - fantastic app! If you can incorporate the features from that app into Xero you would be on to a massive win!

I agree this is my no1 needed feature

Fully agree - double upload of receipts is so unnecessary

This is an absolutely fundamental requirement for claiming billable expenses, and working around it is time-consuming (and therefore costly!) and delays invoicing (which for a one-person business doesn't help cashflow).

Please guys.. really no point in having the ability to assign billable expenses to a customer if you can't send the supporting documents you uploaded to each transaction. Used to use Receipt bank solely for this function but having to subscribe to another service is a mission.

Any response from the Xero team on whether this is something that will be addressed or not?

Adding my voice to this request. Have just started using expenses in Xero and am astounded this isn't a standard function. The lack of this function makes the value of the Expenses module effectively zero.
Where does this enhancement sit in the Xero roadmap?

I'm amazed this capability is not already included considering how fundamental it is and how the workaround of uploading twice must cost Xero a bunch of storage. Our clients require proof that claimed expenses are accurate, doesn't everyone?

Please please add this feature. I have wasted an extortionate amount of time assigning hundreds on expenses to a customer only to discover the is no functionality to export automatically images of the expenses with the invoice that I issue to this customer. I have had to painstakingly download each one. I cannot do this by clicking on the line item of the expenses in the rebilled invoice, I must copy the items and search for it in another search bar. Then once I have manually downloaded each individual image that was uploaded to Xero, I must amalgamate them into a multipage PDF and upload again to Xero. This functionality is critical for me and I sincerely request that it is added as a feature.

This is one of two reasons we have not subscribed to Xero after completing the 30 day trail.

This is a real miss from Xero and makes handling expenses double time. Please fix otherwise will need to go with other software

As a consultant, on-charging expenses to clients, this is a basic necessity that is already available in several other accounting packages. hard to believe it has still not been implemented in Xero

This would fit into Xero's 'transparency' and 'efficiency' message. Having proof of reimbursable expenses charged to a client is required. Clients want to see this. We don't want to upload expenses twice.

Can't understand why such a basic feature is not available.
I run a consultancy and we're constantly in need of double scanning everything, because retrieving scans from Xero expenses is a royal pain.

Our clients would never pay a billable expense without the original receipt as in Australia you must maintain proof of GST paid. Currently I have to double save everything in Dropbox and Xero.

Have the same challenge. As its already possible to assign the expense to the client only feels natural the receipts flows through too.
Would be great to get this feature added
