Reporting - Report that shows Repeating Invoices
Users in Xero can see the figures of the repeating invoices.
Purpose: Users can easily see the figures and forecast their sales, especially those who are having many repeating invoices.

I would like the ability to post my repeating bills so they appear in my account transactions list 20-30 days prior to their due date so I can see my future balance. Thank you for considering this feature.

The ability to monitor and track repeating invoices for a defined period is paramount. I urge Xero to add this feature as a priority update.

It seems that when repeating invoices and bills are set up, there's no way of generating a report that shows the details of their contents prior to them being created as either draft or approved. Reports can only be produced once the invoices and bills are actually created. Therefore, when many of these are created there's no concise way of reviewing them and making appropriate changes before the draft entries are created. Therefore, if changes are discovered to be necessary after they're created, they have to be done twice - once on the new invoice/bill just created and once on the repeating transaction that will be used for future creations.
We've just had to edit all of our repeating bills for annual price changes, etc., but have no way of easily reviewing that we've got them right before the draft entries are created.

This app solves this problem and delivers 2-click forecasts that can be exported to excel (there is also deferred revenue and more coming soon)

As more businesses adopt subscription models, this feature becomes more important. If Xero want to attract new sales it should prioritise this sort of basic improvement.

I'm stunned that this facility isn't already a standard facility in the reports function, and it's omission from reporting is sorely missed. I need this function to be able to forecast future invoice values which will aid in cashflow forecasts. It would also be extremely useful to be able to adjust repeating invoices for price increases across the board by a fixed percentage increase. (Another function idea needed?)

It's been 2 years. Any movement on this?

This would be an extremely useful report to have.

An export feature for Repeating invoices would be great.

Time to get onto this Xero!

Vicky Fabian commented
This seems an obvious report to have. Is there any reason why we can't generate a report on all repeating invoices?

Been asking for this for years. Why add a feature like repeating invoices and not include the most basic of reports/features to support it? Over 90% of our invoices are repeating.

Also - as others have said - export to CSV for easy use in Excel

Just let us do some budgeting and forecasting! Report by period or let us export and do it ourselves. Just something to help up forecast better

Since Xero haven't committed to developing this feature yet, the app BeanBox solves these exact problems. Here's the link: https://www.beanbox.app/
It gives instant automated forecasts for repeating invoices for the next 12 months (and 36 month forecasts are coming soon). Plus it shows reminders about repeating invoices that are expiring, it shows forecasts by tracking codes too if you're using those in Xero, forecasts per customer, and it gives the ability to search and filter across your repeating invoices in ways that you can't do in Xero, to quickly find repeating invoice line items. There are options to export all your repeating invoices and forecasts to Excel too.

Also add the ability to export all the repeating invoices to Excel or PDF.

If the Xero team are looking into this, could they consider being able to access/edit data of these repeating invoices on mass, so either in a table or with a upload/download capacity so if we needed to change the reference on all of them it could be done quickly rather than individually as we have to now. Thank you
