Statements Age Analysis Mergefields

Hi Xero,

I would like to request access to the Statement Mergefields for Age Analysis. This seems to be a standard field in most accounting packages and I would certainly expect it from Xero.

This is a crucial mergefield that I am sure most / if not all small businesses require to keep their debtors book under control.

I am aware of third party plug-ins like Statey that has access to the Xero Age Analysis fields . However, the price of it is 25% of what we already pay for Xero, and that only to get access to a mergefield (Age Analysis).

Come on Xero, please give ear to so MANY that has requested this feature.

We receive wonderful newsletter from Xero on managing cashflow etc. But if you are really serious about helping small business - why not consider making this mergefield available.

    Come On Xero!
    Our old software running on Microsoft Access had this functionality. If you are concerned about helping with cash flow, this is a major feature make sure customers don't ignore their late payments.

    Good day Xero
    This is a major problem for us. Please adhere to our request, as the accounting software that I used previously had this function. We moved over to Xero and now our customers are requesting aging details.
    Otherwise please contact me and explain why this is not a priority so that I can understand.

    Why has Xero not implemented this? At least give us an answer? This is a critical feature for customers.

    Fully support this, and I have been asking for this for years, especially as it is so basic, which is why I just can't understand why Xero have not implemented this? Come on xero!!

    There is a comment on one of your support from Sept 2023 saying DueIn was "about to be added" - seriously, showing clients that a balance is overdue is nowhere near as informative as showing it is now 100 days overdue!

    I have a very big debtors ledger - I trully need to have their statements show aging correclty - rather than a lump sum total. Many customers get upset -
    This is a basic function afforded by many accounting programs

    I've got a customer complaining about our statement layout all the time. The current format works if customers always pay full invoice amounts and on-time, but that's not how it always works in real life. Aged debtor statements would be so helpful, instead I'm wasting time explaining what's overdue to customers. It's so annoying.

    One of our businesses on Xero, have a rental unit, it is critical to have an age analysis on rental statements.
    We are in the process to move to Odoo due to this and Xero's inability to link invoices to quotes, to invoice a quote partially and to show a financial overview of a project, ie, amount quoted, amount accepted, amount invoiced and amount left on order!

    Basic things that I can do with excell!

    Would think it is standard for any bookkeeping program.
