Title: Make Supplier Name Clickable in Draft Bills
Description:
When entering a draft bill in Xero, the supplier field is auto-suggested — often using AI — but it remains a plain text box. This prevents users from clicking through to the supplier’s contact record to view past bills, which is a critical step in avoiding duplicates and checking billing patterns.
Once a bill is approved, the supplier name becomes a clickable link. But during the draft stage — when users are actively entering and verifying data — this functionality is missing.
Suggested Improvement: Make the supplier name clickable in draft bills, linking directly to the supplier’s contact record or bill history. This would save time, reduce errors, and improve workflow efficiency for anyone managing accounts payable.
