Expenses Payments - Auto-Populate Approved Amount
Generally working in Xero is very efficient. However, when paying approved expense claims (and recording the payment) I have to constantly switch between keyboard to type in the payment amount (which is displayed in a cell above) and the mouse to select the payment date and payment account. I can't imagine a scenario when the amount paid is not the amount approved. Why is this cell not pre-populated with the approved amount? If it was it would halve the time it would take me to register payments against expense claims.

When paying "Expense Claims", having approved expense items, the screen shows the "Approved Amount Due" which I then have to enter manually in the "Amount Paid" box, as a result switching between using the mouse and the keyboard. If the "Amount Paid" box was pre-populated with the "Approved Amount Due" it would be much easier and quicker to record the expense payment.
