Unbelievable that something this basic doesn’t already exist. Seems to be a theme with Xero :(

When I create draft invoices in ProWorkFlow, and then send them to Xero for finalisations, the project name appears on my invoice.
I am now experimenting with Xero Projects, in hope that it will be a one-stop-shop for timekeeping and invoicing. But I am disappointed to find, as indicated by others, that invoices created directly from Projects do not contain the project name on them. If is is possible for PWF-origin invoices created in Xero, it should be possible for the native invoices.

This is very important for us also. We are keen to move to Xero but would need this function.

This would be very helpful. Obviously the data is there, the info shows up in the draft invoice in line items. Please add.
The Projects add-on is supposed to be a simple bolt-on without the bells and whistles, but including the name of the project at least an option or placeholder seems like a basic requirement.

Critical for plumber who has a government clients with one billing address but 100 service addresses for one billing address

A basic lack of functionality here, any business I invoice needs to reconcile invoices to their official purchase order. I run projects with a year lifespan and do my task/hourly based invoices on a monthly basis - and having to manually input the PO/reference is a pain and leaves room for error.

I just posted the same question. It's insane that this hasn't come up as a critical item more often. https://central.xero.com/s/question/0D53m00009b6toqCAA/including-a-project-number-as-a-field-to-a-custom-invoice-template
I've setup custom templates and used the reference as the Purchase order, however when the client will recieve them, the accounts or client won't know what project the PO# relates to and will cause them work to find out and then pay. Insane that this is not a feature. It an easy addition for mailmerge field, as it's already shown on the invoice dashboard.

If xero doesn't have this option, then I can't use xero it's that critical for me. One of my main clients has a really particular structure for invoicing, I need to customise the invoice to add details like:

PROJECT TITLE:
PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
PURCHASE ORDER:
JOB NO:
SUPPLY DATE:
INVOICE NUMBER:

I'm going to put this in caps for visibility. THIS FEATURE WAS PREVIOUSLY AVAILABLE, I WAS USING IT FOR OVER A YEAR BEFORE IT WAS REMOVED IN A RECENT UPDATE. The project name is the only place I can list the purchase order number which matches with my client's system; as such I now have dozens of invoices going unpaid because there is no longer a correlation with their system. Why was this removed? It needs to be added back ASAP.

Free open source options for small businesses continue to develop. Lots web hosting companies support templates to deliver these free to use software solutions. Click and run without server admin or command to type… Xero wish to sell the solution not add it for free!

We need this feature so that we can more clearly bill to specific purchase orders. Please implement project name on invoices.

Displaying Project Name on invoicing is crucial. Please make the Project name field available for our custom invoice templates.

Are there plans to add a field showing the project name on invoices? This is really important to my clients and would make sense. In the meatime I will create a manual work-around for this issue.

My clients and I identify all invoices by project name. When and how can we implement this? I need project names to show on invoices, and I also want it to show next to each invoice in the invoice menu.

Hi, I notice it does appear when you chose the project amount option as an invoice. But it doesn't when you select task.

This seems like a bit of an oversight not having the job number name printing on an invoice, it would save alot of time if it did.

Is there a time line for this being available?
