Bills To Pay - Default to Awaiting Payment

Bills to Pay defaulting to "Awaiting Payment". When I am coding draft bills the system defaults to "Awaiting Payment" after I have approved the bill. PLEASE CHANGE THIS BACK to "All" or "Draft Bills". When I'm coding draft bills I don't want to see bills awaiting payment I want to see draft bills whether in the "All" list or "Draft" list.

Hi everyone, thanks again for sharing how we can improve Xero for your experience. The ability to set a default page for Bills to pay has now been released to all users. 

One point that we'd like to highlight is that this setting is device specific - so if you commonly access Xero from multiple devices you'll need to set the default page on each device you use.

    Thanks Vicki. That sorts it. Illogical that it doesn't automatically default to 'Bills Awaiting Payment' (and that it allows the user to choose something that is completely at odds with the menu)

    Why isn't the menu item just called "Bills" c.f. "Invoices", "Purchase Orders" etc.

    Within Xero, selecting 'Business > Bills to Pay' the user would expect to see... Bills to Pay. Instead the user is presented with all bills. Why doesn't the screen default to bills awaiting payment?

    I agree with Christine. It would be way less time consuming if when working on bills awaiting approval that it would stay there until you move away from it. Rather than it always going -to the newly approved bill - then having to choose bills to pay - then selecting awaiting approval all over again. Would be very helpful.

    yes - its another click... feels like it is always another click needed...

    When selecting 'Business' > 'Bills to Pay' the resulting screen does not display bills to pay... It shows all bills (including paid).

    I select ‘Business’ > ‘Bills to Pay’

    But the resulting screen takes me to All Bills – including those that have been paid. (a paid bill isn’t a bill to pay). It should direct the user to Bills Awaiting Payment
