Bills - Option to customise or turn off "Duplicate Bill" review messages
The periodical message that highlights "duplicate bills" and invariably just list recurring monthly bills from suppliers is incredibly annoying and simply wastes time.
There should be an option to disable it. If users genuinely find it useful they could then of course utilise it, but for those of us who don't the ability to switch off would be beneficial.

I agree with everyone (for what it's worth).
Dumbest feature ever when it alerts me to a duplicate bill with a different submit date and different pay date but the same value.
Xero's suggestion to make a "repeating bill template" isn't helpful either as these bills might not have the same date each month.
Simply make it ignore duplicates if the dates are different.

Agreed! In its current state it's basically useless to me.
I keep being prompted that recurring bills that we pay each month may be duplicates. Yet a genuine duplicate bill dated the same date, same amount, just that one bill had leading zeros whilst the other only had the actual numbers, went through without detection.
The fact you can't click to view the bills the way you can in the Bills to Pay screen is infuriating. -

Enjoying this new feature, but wish that I could click on the bill itself to view it and review details, makes it easier to confirm that it is a duplicate bill - not just the attachment (if there is one).

A duplicate bills alert should not appear for bills with completely different invoice dates.
