Enter your idea

I'm shocked this idea has been sitting here for over 3 years. I'm new to Xero and realised I can't use the automated repeatable invoices feature because it sends at 12:05am which looks really unprofessional. I now need to send the invoices manually. It's enough of a pain to consider using a different platform than Xero.

It doesn't even need to be a specific time. We just want them to be sent during waking hours and not in the middle of the night.

Again, we have to send all of our invoices manually because of this limitation.

How difficult is this to setup really? Come on Xero this is so important! We have to manually send all of our repeating invoices, which could be automated if it weren't for this. Such a waste of time

Yes I have lost contracted work because of the timing these invoices are sent. Please change this.

Getting really sick of not being able to automate the sending of our invoices because of this. Very frustrating!

We don't even need to specify a specific time, just make it so that it is during the daytime in our country.

This will be a great addition.

Come on Xero. When are you get round to bringing repeating invoices in to the 21st century? The lack of this feature means we have to send all of our invoices manually every month.

This is critical for me to have the time changed as I have big corporations wanting to cut my contract because they believe the invoices are suspicious being sent at 12.30am in the early morning.

Have an invoice reminder sent at 4-8am is way too early. Especially if you are sending these to clients.

We have a client that would like to send an invoice out the week before its due but with a different invoice date rather than the date it is being sent.

For instance an invoice dated for the 1st Feb is sent out on the 20th Jan, so it is then also paid by the 1st Feb.

The sales team here, who have no idea how the accounts dept work, think that this would be a good idea and look 'more professional' - whatever that means!

I have many repeating invoice this would help a lot.

Invoices are being missed by our clients, please allow scheduling of time on repeating invoices.
Thank you

I'm looking for bills, rather than invoices, but the same principle applies to the recurrings, in this thing MYOB does it better.
and have the option to not have it automatically generate, but to exist as a template that can be used as required on an ad hoc basis.
Also, preset times of annual & quarterly would be useful, instead of being limited to weekly or monthly

Time selcted repeating invoices request first floated in the string in Jan 2022 so I dont have much faith it will be actioned in the short term. If this is too challenging, can you advise, alternatively give a timeline when it may be considered to turn into reality?

Agree that this seems to be a basic feature that should be addressed asap

Can you have a choice to run repeating invoices in advance of the due date, and next due date is created - eg run the end of month invoices (30 or 31st) on the 29th so they are in customers hands on 29th before the end of the month dated (30th or 31st) end of the month

It is not OK for customers to be receiving invoices at midnight. A very poor service

To be able to select particular customer to auto send invoices every day if there are new invoices not yet sent would be an amazing feature.

I complained about this to Xero and their solution is to set repeating invoices to be drafts and then manually send them all. Thus making the process even less automated. Great.
