Enter your idea

It would be great to have an extra tab for this too. One that can be customised. We always struggle to know when a job is finished and can be invoiced (but not closed).

The irony is you can even add an attachment in these comments but not in Projects.

This would be a great function as I have to keep going through my open projects and work what invoices and expenses are still outstanding. I would like to record what action/follow up is need before I can close project

Come on Xero!

Attachments for simple docs - at the least!
And surely a text field / notes function like everywhere else isn't that big a deal ;-)

As an accountant working with clients across various industries, I see firsthand how a dedicated notes section for Xero Projects could streamline workflows. Having a central place to log key updates, client requests, or project-specific instructions would not only improve team collaboration but also reduce errors during invoicing and reporting.

Even a simple text field or a way to date-stamp notes for progress tracking would make a world of difference. I hope Xero will reconsider prioritizing this feature—it's an essential enhancement for many of us relying on Projects for day-to-day operations

Coming back to this again. Im a graphic designer, each time entry to a task needs to have some description to allocate it too and go on the invoice.

After your ridiculous price increase for xero projects, I would expect better.

Xero - I see Kelly's comment from April. Could I, as a new customer, push back and ask the question this way: What do you need to see from your customers - other than them leaving you for a competitor - as to the criticality of this in order to get the feature added?

I desperately need a way to annotate a project to identify the rainmaker. That is not a function of a transaction, but rather of the entirety of the project.

This would improve the user experience of Xero by a 1000% for business that operate on project base. Plus a module for status with the ability to filter would be amazing.

Can we please get an update on this. its an absolute must at this point. each task should have notes that can appear on the invoice if required.

This is actually a critical piece that is lacking in Xero. Additionally, the ability to put a description with each task is more than critical in my opinion. I find it a bit odd that this feature was not deemed an absolute must have by xero... I feel that this shows a lack of understanding about the users that are choosing xero projects

Being able to add notes to individual Projects is in my view critical .. so that the Project Manager can record notes of issues or steps that still need to be completed to complete the Project. All it needs is a simple note pad \ text field attached to each Project (say up to 500 characters),

This is a very disappointing response as the existing Project information is extremely limited. There needs to be the option for a Project number/reference field and Address at the very least. The single field of 'Project Name' is completely insufficient.

This is disappointing as being able to add cost estimates, contracts to a project is basic in my opinion and a good way to have everything at our fingertips especially when doing invoicing. having notes on another page isn't very helpful when you aren't in that page when doing particular things.
Please reconsider this as it's not a major upgrade to put in just functionality.

What do the Xero team have against making much needed improvements on Projects. There are issues on Projects (like this one) that should have been resolved before even rolling it out.
Shame on you Xero, we don't need anymore ways to make the Reports look pretty, the bookkeepers need these fundamental issues resolved ASAP.

This is very disappointing and seems the Xero team are determined to push its users away by not responding positively to requests for additional functionality. It now means I will have to action looking for a new projects solution for my client.

Can't quite believe that there is no way of recording Notes/adding document backup to a project! Seems ludicrous really.

I would also like to be able to attach important project docs to a project - eg engagement letter with client, statement of work, etc..

Also I would like to be able to enter more detail in the project - eg progressive project phase deadlines and budgets for each phase..

I would like notes to help track the different stages of the project and project manager field notes that are important to understand the flow of work for future reference.

This feature would be really useful for me so that I can make notes of variations to projects which re fixed cost, for example extra hours, materials so that when I invoice the job I have a record within Xero Projects of these things. currently I need to remember them or note them down so I don't forget. I would also use this to enter a description about the project and any specific notes that may be useful to look back on.

This is surely not very hard to add? Xero has notes for invoices and quotes etc. already... we need to add a notes section in the projects!! Our technicians need to be able to log notes onto a project for any issues that may arise or so that they can view any notes admin has added regarding a job.

Having a Notes section to be able to record Order numbers, contact details & other important information would be SO much easier, this is the only thing on the otherwise perfect Xero that I'm struggling with.
