Xero Accounting app - Ability to send purchase orders

Send purchase order from mobile app
Frustrated as the platform needs tons of updates it’s terrible
Can’t mark off paid jobs
Can’t search for job name
No job name on invoicing why simple things that should be available

    Unable to send from mobile app - have to reconsider if i want to subscribe to Xero now. My trial version is due this 2days:(

    need to be able to attach an item to purchase order and be able to send from mobile - pretty pointless otherwise having any of this on the app as you are going to have to go back and revisit/edit thereafter

    XERO obviously is not reading these comments.

    There has been no constructive comment or response from XERO.

    Like all corporates now its about revenue gathering rather than customers needs.

    The inability to send purchase orders is causing my clients great anguish to the point of considering other software options!

    We require to send POs from mobile APP as businesses are not always in the office all day.

    We really need to be able to send purchase orders from the App as we are a service based business and a large percentage of our purchase orders are created while out on jobs.

    This means we can do it from the factory floor with out having to go back to the official to log in on a PC or login in on internet browser on our phones

    Our employees need to be able to create and send a purchase order at time of pick up and the simplest way would be through the app. Definitely need this feature

    Another one for needing to be able to send purchase orders from the app (android in our case). My client is a plastics recycling business with grant acquittal requirements needing a purchase order for every purchase.

    Given small business owners heavily reliance on mobile devices to conduct business on the run this seems like a logical part of raising a purchase order. Why on earth wasn't it included with the functionality originally?

    Email a PO off the Xero app

    My laptop suddenly died in a flood of coffee-coloured, well….. coffee, and I was forced to load and begin using the app. It was something of a shock to discover the limitations of the app, but the feature that was problematic was not being able to email a PO off the app. I believe this is an important feature for running a small business.

    I had to take a screenshot, copy the suppliers email address, then send an email separately, attaching the screenshot. It is a messy workaround for an old-timer like me.

    Kindly include this request in your list of important to-do’s.

    I'd like to be able to create a purchase in the Xero App on my Android phone then send a pdf to my customers of the purchase. We are a metal recycling company doing many purchases and the customers require a breakdown of this.
