Xero Accounting app - Ability to enter negative lines in an invoice

I would like for there to be the option to add a minus figure into a sales invoice in the Xero App - the same as the browser version.

    I have several customers that use the app for invoicing their customers as they are self-employed remote workers invoicing on the go. This has really caused great difficulty for them. The minus figure was available for a long time. Not sure why this function was removed. I get weekly complaints from my customers due to their frustrations. I tried to put a fix in place by creating untracked products with negative values. However, this has caused issues when the need arises to change the values. Xero, please bring this function back.

    Yes! I’ve asked twice about this. Surely, for a professional accounting system you should be able to minus a figure from your invoicing / quoting on the app. It’s actually crazy that isn’t an option at the moment. I input this atleast 10 times a month and have to use my laptop everytime… not exactly a chore but this needs to be addressed on the app 100%

    Working away from my desk I need to input deductions on my invoices using my phone app but there is no minus on the phone app key pad :(

    It’s a pain not being able to use the - on on the app. I need it when deducting CIS on an invoice.

    I used to be able to add the - on my invoices to deducts my invoices. This is via the app and now for some reason it’s been removed.

    They have said a workaround is going onto the web browser. I use the app as with my business I’m doing quotes/invoices on the go. So not really a workaround for a small business!

    I have found a work around of being able to copy the “-“ vale into the box. But Xero listen to your customers or you’ll eventually loose them. Another big company not listening to the little guys

    Recently moved a client over from QB and they do everything on their phone, it's a bit embarrassing having to tell them they can't add negative lines for his CIS.

    Its useless to have invoice application with out a negative entry lines

    Xero is great for Tradies and Tradies want to do everything on their phone so not being able to deduct Withholding tax is a real downside to Xero.
    It would be great to have this ability on the Mobile App so please can it be added.
