Invoices - Bulk export more than 500 invoices
Hi,
Currently Xero restricts the export of Invoice / Bills to 500 rrecords at a time.
We, I am sure like so may other Xero users are a small value per transaction - High Transaction number enviromment and therefore even if one filters on date range for one day, the number of invoices are in excess of 500. This also means that we are unable to append files for one day at a time.
My I request Xero to remove the restriction on the number of records while exporting Invoice / Bills transactions please.
Please keep me posted on the action taken.
Regards,
Deepak

📂 **New Feature Just Released:
🚀 **BULK Export All Invoices as PDF + Attachments**
You can now export your entire invoice history — organised by Contact Name → Invoice Number → Invoice PDF + all attachments. No more digging, no more manual sorting. Just clean, complete records at your fingertips.
ALSO — Coming Soon from Control-C!
🚀 **Unlimited Addresses for Xero Contacts**
Still stuck with just one address per contact in Xero? That’s about to change!
Control-C is launching a game-changing update that gives you the freedom to use as many addresses as you need — no workarounds, no frustration, and most importantly, no compromise to your historical invoice integrity.
🧠 **Why This Matters**
Xero’s current design means that if you update a contact’s name or address, every past invoice linked to that contact is retroactively changed. That’s not just inconvenient — it’s a serious audit risk. You lose the original invoice details, making it impossible to reissue a true copy or prove compliance.
Control-C solves this.
Our upcoming multiple-address support doesn’t just let you pick any address for any invoice — it also preserves the original invoice exactly as it was issued. Every change is versioned, every invoice is backed up, and your audit trail stays intact.
🛡️ **Total Peace of Mind**
- Immutable invoice history — even if you update a contact, the original invoice remains untouched.
- Automated backups with full version control.
- Audit-compliant record keeping, built into every invoice.🚨 **Early Access: Sign Up Now!**
Be among the first to experience true address freedom in Xero.
- Secure your spot for early access
- Get your historical invoices safely backed up before launch

I agree with all of the comments posted. This makes it seem like xero is only interested in small businesses with fewer transactions. This is not a 'nice to have' option. It is critical.
If the limitation is to provide a faster export, let there be the option to remove the limitation and we will accept having to wait a little longer for the report.
I have never experienced a limitation in any of the software I have used over the years. -

I am in the same boat as the other people who have commented. We generate more than 500 invoices on the last day of the month so have no way of filtering to get under 500. Please provide a fix

I really need to export bills without limiting them to 500 as I am dealing with bulk data, and every week, I need to export bills over 10,000 to check for double payment. It takes over 3 hours to do things manually. We are looking for alternate software for just this functionality. I would appriciate if this feature becomes instantly available.

This limitation is unusual with systems in my experience, and is inconsistent with no import or export limits on contacts or products, or indeed imports of invoices.
The data in this invoice exports is text only, and so the system load is negligible, to me it's hard to understand the delay in providing such an important capability!

We are new to Xero and have found some limitations. We need to export MANY MORE than the 500 invoices that you have allowed us to export - can you please provide a work around ASAP
