What was the point of the new invoicing? It has lost functionality with the switch and now takes more time to accomplish with more steps involved for no reason. Shouldn't the goal of software updates to make it easier for users not harder? Quicker not longer.

not good enough set up add lines as it was before
it was straight forward
you may not want to fill a whole new line
You might have multipe produces and services that need a new line
why should be space bar when all you need to do it use what was there before
not impressed

I am utterly gobsmacked. How on earth is adding lines to an invoice not part of the standard functionality. Utter madness. Utter, utter madness. What are you thinking? How are we going to do this? Use the workaround of copying old invoices which leads to error. I was told by Support JUST NOW that I cannot even add one line. Truth. This just can't be real.

Utter. Madness.

The new invoicing system should not have made it past UAT. If going Live was the "UAT" (hope everyone has enjoyed testing it and expecting it to be glitch free) then at least don't retire the old functionality until this one is up to par. My goodness. "New functionality" What the???

I feel like Xero has been taken over by AI. I feel for the Support Team. They must absolutely cop it.

One step forward, two steps back. I'll never understand why you must meddle with something that isn't broken! Do you ever allow time to run your new ideas past the users and properly respond to their suggestions and problems before you put the new option in place. Even with this run out, you have released it before many of the requests have been addressed properly. You have partially addressed the Item list issue, but still only 50 lines show. Why couldn't we have a scroll option down the entire list?

@SG.GS Billing - That is a really good suggestion!

Must the lines be added to the bottom of the page?
What if I have a 80 line invoice and the line to be inserted is for example the 6th line?

Definitely agree. Please bring this entire feature back !!!

I like the way I can finish the first line and it automatically adds a new line for the next item.
But that is just the way I invoice - I can see how it would be annoying for others .
Why can't we have both features?

Reinstate "Add a new line" to the new version of invoicing. Without it, what used to be a single invoice with multiple lines turns into a series of duplicated invoices each with a single edited line.

Definitely agree. Please bring this entire feature back !!!

Agree with what everyone is saying here - we want to be able to add lines first and then enter text as required. ****, have both options Xero if you like? Just add back the Add more lines button and everyone's happy.

I have raised this problem as well and it just make my everyday work so much more complicated and time consuming.

What makes this even more frustrating is that as you cannot add a line without first typing in a field, and at times when I go to move the cell up to a different position in the invoice (if that is required), the whole invoice crashes, won't save and I have to redo all of the work again. It really is a nightmare!!!!!

Critical feature of Classic Invoicing that needs to be instated in the new version of Xero. We need the add Lines feature along with the option of blank lines for comments only. Please re-instate.

Cannot add multiple, new empty lines within new invoice, we used to be able to add 5 or 10 new/empty lines. New lines now have to be added one at a time in new invoicing and you can't add subsequent new lines without adding text into each line which slows down adding multiple items. (add a new line button to be reintroduced)

yeah I agree I cannot see why this feature was removed.

I disagree. Automatic new line is a pain as it just adds one line when you enter something in the last line.

When I'm building an invoice, I regularly add however many lines I want first then structure it the way I want.

If I want to add 5 or 7 or 11 or whatever, I just want to be able to click the add a line button, not **** around entering a character in the last line just to get one more.

I would agree with others that the new line automatically adding is better than the old invoicing where it was another click to add a line

Hi, as the new invoicing adds a new line automatically not so much of an issue, what would be great when add quantity sold it would advise if not no stock rather than wait to end when approve so check bills waiting for approval.

Just put it back..... Really not hard to do.

If you had a look at the new invoicing you would see that the moment you start entering data in the first line it automatically adds a new line below.
And that's only by tapping on the TAB button.

Can't see how the old invoicing is better in that regard.
With the old invoicing you have to manually click to add a new line even if it's just one extra line.
