New Invoicing - Date picker without using "Pick another date"
Can the New Invoicing Template have a the original way to change the date instead of opening the date dropdown to then have to open the "Pick another Date" option if it's not today or yesterday.. If it was today it would already have that day selected, so why is it an option? just added extra steps to select the correct date..
Hi team, I know it's been a while since my last update and we'd like to confirm that our team are working to address your concerns, here. We'll be providing quicker access to the calendar picker for both the invoice due and issue dates. Work's underway atm and we plan to have this released to you all before classic invoicing retirement. I'll swing back again as soon as it's ready 🙂

Agree with everyone. So frustrating trying to change the date. I should just be able to start typing the date and see the calendar. I seldom create invoices on the date they were raised by our crew. It is extremely tedious trying to amend the date. I then usually amend the default due date as a consequence of the above and that's even worse - for some reason when I manually enter the new due date the system defaults it to the previous month.

Issue Date - We would like to have 1 click in the date field to select the date from the calendar view. This works for ‘Today’, ‘Tomorrow’ and ALL date selections. Having ‘Today’ and ‘Tomorrow’ options in the dropdown menu, are superfluous as ‘Today’ is already the default date selection and this additional menu selection is just an extra click to get to the calendar view to select. ‘Today’ circled in the calendar view is great for quick identification.

Totally agree! Our sales are via online stores. The date is very rarely today and never tomorrow. It would be way more user-friendly to have the default date as today and then pop up the calendar.

I think this idea will get plenty more support when people are forced to use only new invoicing. I tried, got fed up literally at this bit, switched back to classic. I hope this gets sorted before Sept but they definitely will get enough complaints after!
All other date fields sllow you simply to type i cannot see why this one has to be different and so time consuming!
I sent suport message and the 2 nd reply suggested this page i did not know it even existed.. -

Allow pasting of a date, as was possible previously. (specifically when entering the date when the invoice was paid) Manually selecting a date with the picker is time consuming and more prone to user error. This new method is a backwards step, not an improvement at all.

Agree, just let us type or date, or at least add "yesterday" as an option

This is terrible, just let me type a date instead of clicking "pick another date" then selecting it from a drop down calendar.
