Is there a step by step guide available to set the eInvoicing through the online invoice (My Bills page) up, as this is not something i currently appear to be able to find? That way we could send this to clients

E-invoicing is only available for VAT registered businesses. So where does that leave the rest of us?

Xero used to offer this service. Regression is very sad to see.

Adding the PDF to the billing notification email would be an extremely simple task, especially since Xero can do that for customer invoices.

Dropping the invoice into Hubdoc for processing should also be a simple task.
Given the latest round of subscription increases resources should not be an issue!

Xero subscription invoices added to Files
When you email our Xero subscription invoice, please email it to our Files. (Or at least give that to us as an option.) We shouldn't have to forward our Xero invoice to our bookkeeper. The file should already be waiting for the bookkeeper within the software.

Please please please please

tick your box to add a pdf to the email with the invoice.
thats it.

We all have to do it for our customers - please do it for us.

I do not want to sign up to another outside source.

I would just like to have our pdf invoice attached to the email so I can forward the email to my xero draft bills. That is all.

Please do this - tick your box.

thank you

Why does this appear to use a 3rd party and in their privacy policy they state "Where relevant, we may disclose or transfer your personal data to affiliates, vendors, business partners or other collaborators for business purposes."

What data is shared with them, and why can't Xero manage to add thier own invoice into their own platform without a 3rd party?

Thanks for sharing the Xero Central link, Andy.

@Benjamin, the section on 'Receive your Xero subscription invoices via eInvoicing' has the step by step that should help you set this up 😊

Afer much searching, I found that there are now instructions on how to do this in Xero help:

https://central.xero.com/s/article/Register-to-receive-e-invoices-UK

Great to hear this is now available in the UK, I can't see a 'Receive Xero subscription bills as einvoices' option in my billing settings.

Can you give a bit more clarity on where this should be located please?

It drives me mad that I have to hunt high and low for the Xero invoice for my subscription every month! It is not in a very user friendly place and seems to be complicated to find. Please look into making this more simple

Thanks for the update, @Ethan M.

Please note that as of this date, all three pages you linked with instructions show instructions for NZ - the URL coding implies that there should be a slightly different one for Australia, where I am (I assume that I can sub ABN for NZBN without changing anything substantial)

@Michael Welbourne, I'm with you on this - only the subscriber can opt in to receive the bills? This means that I get to walk infinite clients through the process of doing this for me, or make my boss use their valuable time to do it for ALL the company's clients, individually. And if it's not going to land in Drafts without further input from the subscriber, then this has to happen EVERY MONTH.

We have better things to do.

It would be nice if the Xero's own bills can be sent straight to Bills payable.

To add Xero's own invoice into Draft invoices is such a faff. The MAIN SUBSCIBER has to:

Choose Subscription and Billing
Click on Manage Subscription (not very intuitive when looking for an invoice)
Once in My Xero you click on Billing Accounts
You then have to click on the three tiny dots on the right
Choose View Invoices
Click on the invoice (you are now in tab number 4)
Go to Log in to save invoice as a bill - Log in???!?!?! It's an off-putting choice seeing as you are already logged in.

Can't it just go straight in as a Draft Invoices, and on the fairly rare occasion it's not going to be processed by the company that the subscription is for then the draft invoice could be deleted?

Each month you email me to let me know my Xero invoice is ready. I then have to click the link, download the invoice in pdf, then email it to the Xero portal so I can import it in Xero and add it to a bill.

Why not just email the invoice to my portal so it is ready for me to add and approve there - saving me 5 minutes per month.

Done, will have to wait til next month to see how it lands

its the excel version of this subscription invoice that needs to go into xero not just the summarised lines, that way the costs can be allocated to clients rather than having to add invoices as pricing changes etc please.

Just emailing a PDF would be a good start! And giving me the option of choosing the email(s) it goes to, so I can cc my draft bills email address, Hubdoc or Datamolino.

Why only for AU, NZ and Singapore? Did your U.S. and other international clients to something that would cause you to exclude us?

While automatically adding the subscription invoice details into the Xero the invoice should also be added into the HubDoc system also. Having to manually add these into a system that is looking to minimize the workload on staff is counter intuitive. Also finding the Xero Subscription invoices without any of the emails is an adventure in frustration as well. They could just email the PDF of the invoice then people could attach rules in email handling to automatically process.
