This would be so useful as I paid a supplier twice by mistake and took 6 months to get the overpayment back. As a workaround this is what I do with each supplier contact so I know how they are paid.

This would be very usefu

This would be very useful.

would be great if you could split/filter the bills report by this type too as well as currency.

this feature is very beneficial when paying invoices to avoid duplication

This is an essential feature to be able to see the payment method. Please add as soon as possible.

I was surprised to find this was not already a feature in Xero. Having a payment method field on the supplier record is important to ensure that bills that are to be paid by DD are not included in the bank transfer payment run in error . It currently means we are having to rely on memory or check payments to a list of DD's. Is there a plan or timeline for this to be resolved?

Please add this as an important feature. It would be very helpful to be able to split the different ways bills are paid eg by credit card, Direct Debit or by online banking. It would save loads of time when running reports/analysis or just working on one area of payment at a time.

Please add urgently

This would make Xero even more efficient!!

I already know how to run it that way - however my point was more to create the column in Payment run section, that say 'payment method' and when selecting invoices for payment, it can all be in one place.
Does it make sense kind of?

Thank you

Is there any change to mark the payment method for each supplier (direct debit, BACS, Credit card etc) ?
It would be beneficial for doing payment runs, not remembering or using external list of which supplier is getting paid in which way..
Would be helpful to have a tag that states if the supplier is paid by direct debit or bank transfer etc. This should be included directly under supplier itself. Like eg. in Access Dimension Accounting software.

Thank you

10000% agreed. this is critical and would avoid double payments of suppliers on DDs or Standing orders

Absoluttely agree with this one. Should be able to mark a contact as a direct debit or Bpay payee which then would flag any bills under this contact, so that when viewing Bills to Pay you do not select them by mistake for a batch payment.

It would be really useful to be able to separate out bills that will be paid via direct debit so that you are only looking at bills that require a manual payment when generating payment runs.

This would be a HUGE benefit - please add this function ASAP

We collect Sales via Direct Debit, but can pay the same company for Bills using BACS. Ideally there should be a Payment Method for Sales and separate one for Purchase. Could the options be included in the Sales defaults and Purchase defaults section?

I want to be able to easily identify those suppliers whose bills are paid on automatic direct debit from our credit card, so I don't double pay them when doing batch processing of bills.

I have to manually untick those bills.

Xero Support has confirmed such a feature doesn't currently exist.

Huge support for this one, we have bills that are DD paid, quite a few set up for payment in the future according to payment terms etc.

Currently have to leave a note in the reference to note all of this.

Payment date + Payment method = very easy payment selection (and save accidentally manually paying auto-deduct invoices)

Yes this would be a huge help in avoiding duplicate payments and sorting out which payments should be selected for batch payment. Please prioritise Xero team 🙏 .

Setting default payment method (EFT, BPAY etc.) - so it can be filtered based on the payment method.
