Enable a new placeholder in 'Recurring Invoices' for [Next Month Year], so that we can invoice a month ahead - current can only do current Month Year, not the following.

Can we please get an update on this feature improvement. This would be a very simple addition, but make a huge improvement in administrative processing time and effort.

We need this too, we have 1000's of repeating invoices each month and our clients are asking for this on the invoices we send, it should be simple.

This has just become super important to me as I need to send out weekly invoices for rent and need to refer to include from and to dates.
I went to select placeholders just assuming this would have been a standard inclusion but it's not there.
[TODAY], [DAY] (Monday, Tuesday etc), [LAST DAY OF MONTH]

Impossible for me to create a repeating invoice for a client, without being able to add the week of design work it refers to.

A customer has requested for us to add service dates to the repeating invoice template. E.g. 'From [issue date] to [6 months], which we would expect to result in 'From 1st April 2025 to 30th September 2025'

For sometings so critical, this has been outstanding for so long. Very easy to add a placeholder field for a date into the invoice template

Being able to add previous month as a placeholder would also be good. We invoice at the end of the month, but in reality don't end up emailing them out until a day (or more) into the new month, so an email that says "for work done in [Month]" always ends up wrong.

Would very helpful

From my point of view, we need a placeholder for date so that we can add-subtract and provide a range in the invoice for the servicing period.
Example : Weekly invoices need a placeholder in the description saying for which week this is being invoiced for. Giving a week number is fruitless as no one in the payment team will understand this. They need a range like 04 Nov 2024 to 08 Nov 2024 or 04/11/2024 - 8/11/2024 or 4-8 Nov 2024

Please create a placeholder for the last day of the current month. That way our templates will be correct whether there are 28, 30 or 31 days in the month of the invoice!

Thank you.

This suggestion have been helpful, but I beleive Xero should handle the Month & Year combination. Lets say I invoice on 20th December 2024, and the Reference in my Invoice needs to say "Software Subscriptions for January 2025".

I can't really use "Software Subscriptions for [Month+1] [Year]"
as 20/12/2024 would be "Software Subscriptions for January 2024"

It is important that I have the correct month and year in my Reference and in the Email cover letter.

Please add more placeholder options. At the very least we should be able to add today's date to the recurring invoice.
This is important for rent or items billed for weekly dates.

Agreed, this would make things much simpler for recurring invoices and bills.

Please implement this.

This is exactly the info that I was after too. Why is there no (date) placeholder surely there must be a lot of people creating weekly invoices that require "W/Ending Date"

100% agree. You offer +/- feature to weeks and months in XPM, so why not in Xero?

An example: Let's say you want to send out weekly rent invoices 14 days before the rent is due and the rent is due 14 days before the start of the actual week.

At the moment the placeholders for the description can't handle that. You have to manually adjust each repeating invoice. Would be great if you could create a placeholder [week + 14 days]

Please add a placeholder for "invoice date" only "due date" available for email templates.

provide placeholder for date/day because sometimes we want to show timeline for the customers
