New Invoicing - Add Expected Invoice Payment Date within Invoice
Can no longer add an expected payment date when viewing an invoice, you now have to go to the 'awaiting payment' section of invoices. Meaning more steps involved and lost functionality.

It's really frustrating that the ability to 'add an expected payment date' won't be added to the new invoicing view/edit screens, as using this feature in this way is core to our internal processes.
We regularly search for invoices based on their invoice number, which then brings us to that invoice's invoicing view/edit screen where we can get a full view of that invoice's history, download, send, attach files, update expected payment date, turn off reminders, etc - all from one view.
With this change, we will now have to unnecessarily navigate around multiple areas of the platform if we want to continue to achieve all the above I have mentioned.
I request that the decision not to add the feature to the new invoicing view/edit screen be revised by Xero's development team.

Agreed, this step was a crucial feature for quick credit control and forecasting, adding the extra steps is not ideal.
Could the product team simply update the new invoicing feature to re-include the expected payment date button? -

Agreed. Hopefully this box can be added back to the side of the note section. We used this daily for our credit control procedures and now have to open up a second page to add expected date from the invoice list. Its adding time to the process
