New Invoicing - Separate Email button, instead of a 2-click selection

The email invoice button on the new invoice template has moved from a main button to now being in a sub menu in the three dots, adding a click to the work flow.

But Print PDF is still a button on the main invoice template.

In an era where email is preferred over a printed PDF in the post, it would be nice to retain both EMAIL and PRINT as main buttons on the new invoice system. Seems extra work when you are sending a whole load every day for bigger companies.

    Please return the email button to main invoice, not many of us are printing these days.

    Thank you, Fiona. Though I’ve lost hope that Xero is capable of listening to users, I signed the petition.

    Why has the Email button disappeared? Please retain it at the top, along with Print PDF

    My fingers do not need yet another click to access the email option Please put back the button

    We really need the option of both Email and Print buttons.

    Keep single touch button for approve and email invoices. Going through several steps in new invoicing system to send the invoice is a pain in the butt.

    It is some much easier with the separate email button. Why do they need to change things. Seems to be going backwards. I need rhe time that the email was sent so I can confirm with my customers that say they never received the email. Which happens on a regular basis.

    Definitely prefer a separate email button. We use email function both internally and externally for every invoice. Hiding it just creates more unnecessary work.

    100% agreed that the email button is a key function and having to now navigate to the option menu first creates unnecessary additional time to send an invoice.

    I add to this that this is when viewing an invoice after it has been created. I resend an invoice with a different email template to chase payment after the payment time elapses. Now when I view an unpaid existing invoice it does not have an email option unless I click the 3 buttons.
