Project Invoice - List Time Entries in Chronological Order
Listing Time Entries in Chronological Order in Invoicing for Projects.
As raised in support case CX0012531595 - I use projects to create invoices for clients and show time entries for all tasks - the problem is that the draft invoice seems to put all the entries in random order rather than a date order - there is no way to sort by date so that it reads chronologically for the client. Interestingly you can run a report to list entries by date, so that functionality exists in the platform but it needs to be brought into invoicing. I…

New invoicing - Inbuilt calculator when posting payment
New invoicing is missing the mark by getting rid of Classic Features. I can no longer do math when making a payment. I will often post a partial payment ie: 50% payment, I can add /2 or *.5 after the prefilled amount. I can no longer do this in New Invoicing. Why get rid of features? So frustrating now that Classic Invoicing is gone in less than 50 days. It was much more efficient to have add payment at the bottom of the invoice opposed to jumping to the top of the screen to add a payment, and now…

Quote report - Filter by accepted date
Accepted Quote Report
Great to see that we can now look at a report for accepted quotes but the report is not filterable by the accepted date - please can this be added to the date search for quote reports within Quotes through Receivable Invoice Details and Summary reports.
At the moment the report isn't right as you can only search by due date and created date which is no good - the accepted date needs to be a searchable date or the quote filtered by accepted quotes is useless if you ant to see what quotes have been accepted…14 votes -
New Invoicing - Description Box Defined
New Invoicing - Description Box Defined
It would be great if the new invoice description field had a defined box around it like the rest of the row does. The old invoice does and it looks cleaner. I find myself second guessing if those descriptions are in the correct place because it looks like they all run together.
4 votesThanks for confirming, Nicki. I can confirm I've shared this back with the team. We are looking at further improvements to the invoicing grid, so I'll let you know here if there's any news for this.

Invoicing - Update contact with email used when sending
Under the old invoicing, when an invoice was emailed to a client for the first time, the email address used for that first invoice automatically populated the Contact card's email address at the time the invoice was sent.
This meant that if the invoice was unpaid, the reminder would be able to go to the same person who received the invoice.
However the new invoicing doesn't automatically populate the Contact's email address.
This means an extra step is needed to ensure the Contact card is updated.
If this step isn't taken, then the automated reminders don't go…4 votesHi Jo, interesting one here as some users would like the contact to be update but also others that wouldn't. It'll be good to get a sense of users that would like to see the contact record updated with the email used when sending from your idea here.
No plans to change this behaviour at present but we'll share if there's any news.

Invoice Payments - Collect GoCardless "ASAP" instead of on Due Date
It would be really good to have a tick box on the Invoice creation page similar to "GoCardless: Collect ASAP" which would cause the payment to be collected ASAP as opposed to on the Due Date of the invoice.
For customers who already have a mandate set up via GoCardless, using "+0 days" for Repeating Invoices or "Today" for standard invoices as the Due Date resolves the problem in a way - the money is collected ASAP.
But for customers who do not have a mandate set up, things get even more complicated.
We generally set the Due …9 votes -
e-invoicing Germany
From 1st January 2025 businesses in Germany must be able to receive e-invoices and this function does not exist in the Global edition we use for our German clients.
We need this functionality setting up as a matter of urgency.
34 votesThanks for raising the idea with us. Our team are aware of the mandate of eInvoicing for Germany. While we don't have immediate work planned at this stage our plan is to support any Peppol-enabled region in the long term and we are paying close attention to the interest from users on this idea. We'll be sure to update of any progress surrounding this for you, here.
The mandate currently states "The new legal regulation currently contains no specifications for the electronic transmission of electronic invoices. An email inbox should therefore initially be sufficient to receive an electronic invoice."
Based on this, currently with Xero an eInvoice could be received by using our Email to bills service, or by including the invoice as an attachment and sending to your organisation's Files library. On agreement with your suppliers you could share your bills, or files library email with them so…

New Invoicing - Autosave in edit mode
New Invoicing Autosave function - Does not work in Edit Mode
When you create a new invoice the autosave function is there.
However, if you approve an invoice and then try to edit it, then the autosave is not there and you must manually click update.
Can you please make this feature more consistent. Either everything is autosave or not autosave. Having some aspects will create confusion and lost data6 votes -

e-invoicing - Support for bulk sending
E-Invoicing
Is it possible to set e invoicing up at customer contact level. This would then allow me to bulk send my invoices as I currently do, rather than one by one1 voteThanks for sharing, Sarah. We don't support bulk invoicing for eInvoicing atm but it's on the teams radar. If any plans are made for this we'll update you here.

Invoicing: Email receipt from within Invoice
At present, using Xero's Invoicing templates, you cannot send a "Receipt" from the Invoice -> Email screen. It prints as "Tax Invoice" with a zero balance. You have to click into the payment applied and send a "Receipt" from there.
If Xero labelled a paid Invoice as a 'Receipt', then surely we could use 'Receipt' templates - as you cannot unless using an advanced docx template with custom coding.
Secondary to that, Email templates - not being able to have a 'Receipt' template means that our "Receipts" go out with Xero's "View Full Invoice and Pay" message at the bottom…

Invoice - Set due date to 28 days
Please can you include an option on the invoices for payment due date -28 days. We have an option for 7 and 14 days but the majority of our invoices are 28 days from invoice date.
1 voteThis is possible from within the Invoice Settings page, Emily 😊 From here there is an option to set Invoice due date based on days after the invoice date, where you can enter a number anywhere between 0 - 99.

New Invoicing - Add 'attach file' button at payment
Reducing clicks:
When applying a payment to a bill or an invoice, I usually want to attach a source document (image of check, confirmation of our POS system, etc.). Right now I cannot do it while applying the payment. Right now (in 'old' invoicing/bill) I have to instead apply the payment, find myself in the accounts transaction overview, go back to invoice, click on the payment I just applied and then I have to option of uploading/attaching a document. Very inconvenient.9 votes -
New invoicing | Files - support .eml file type
The Classic Invoicing allows .eml (downloaded emails) to drag and drop into invoices from downloads. The new invoicing DOES NOT allow this. Please reinstate this function to the new invoicing as it is an essential part of loading invoices (uploading (drag & drop) downloaded emails providing instructions and authorization evidence for auditors). Kelly, please confirm that this function will be continued in the new invoicing. Thank you.
1 voteAppreciate you highlighting this, Gemma - Understand what you mean with the .eml file upload within new invoicing.
I see you recently connected with our specialists at Xero Support on this who directed you here, however this would be best for us to investigate deeper with you. I've re-opened your case and our team will be in touch directly soon so we can get more insight into this one.
So, while I'll move the idea here to Not planned we're definitely interested to explore this further but best done 1-on-1. 🙂 Thanks

New invoicing - Look up Sales tax (US)
Tax Lookup should be available in New Invoicing
2 votesXero has recently partnered with Avalara, a leader in tax automation software, to provide automatic, accurate sales tax calculations on new invoices and simple, state-based sales tax reports to make it easier to prepare for filing.
This new auto tax feature will apply the tax rate automatically by location which sounds like what you’re asking for 😊 See here for more information, and a demo video. -
New Invoicing - Keep leading carriage returns and spaces in description field
The 'new invoicing' option automatically removes any leading carriage returns and leading spaces in the invoice description field.
This did not occur in the classic version and wonder why it was introduced.
To enable the details of the invoice to be easily read, it is sometimes necessary to separate line items on the invoice and to indent the actual description.
Can this 'feature' be removed?14 votes -
New Invoicing - Show quantity in Item drop down
You've finally forced us into the new invoicing. Lots of promises were made to fix what was broken with it. Unfortunately these promises are just as broken as the new invoicing. Here's what needs fixed:
When a new invoice comes up automatically set the focus to the name field so it's ready to receive data. Have to click on it.
Fix the date field. If I use the down arrow key it opens up the date widget But then using the left and right arrow keys should move the date off of the current date to either tomorrow…
1 voteThanks for your feedback, Randall. I want to assure you we're still working on features and improvements within new invoicing.
In order for others in community to know what they're voting for and help our product teams get understanding of the specific changes our customers would like to see it's best that these are tracked separately on product ideas site. There are existing ideas for some of the points you've raised here.
Relating to your point on the date field - I'd recommend connecting with our specialists to confirm the behaviour that you're getting and the specific date field this is related to. Once you press enter or space after opening the calendar widget you should be able to use your keyboard arrow keys to navigate the calendar.

New Invoice Reports - Option to add a Date Paid column
Ability to add a date paid column in the new invoice reports.
Purpose: It’ll make users see the date paid figure in the report easily.
5 votesGood news everyone! we recently enhanced our Receivable Invoice Detail & Summary as well as Payable Invoice Detail & Summary report to have the option to add a Last Payment Date column. So you're now able to see the date of when an invoice or bill was paid.
Remember that you can always use Save the report as custom, so you don't have to change the report setting each time you're using the report.
Thank you for submitting your votes here. I'll mark this idea as 'delivered' now 🙂.

Invoices: Customise items in 'Due date' dropdown list
Currently, when creating an invoice, the payment terms dropdown gives you the following options:
- Today
- 7 days
- 14 days
- EOM +1
- EOM +20
- end of next month
I would like to customise this list; the Australian government has recently brought in payment standards of 5 days if sent by e-invoice and 20 days if not, for all invoices sent to all non-corporate Commonwealth entities (including Defence) and neither of those are amongst the standard options. This means that I have to manually change the due date based on the contract for every invoice sent,…12 votes -
New Invoicing - Invoice Reference Field; Allow Formatting
Please change the Type of the Invoice Reference field on New Invoicing to Allow for extended text formatting capabilities. Make it the same data type as the Summary Field on Quotes or the Description Field on Invoice Line items. So that the invoice reference field allows and saves Carriage Returns and Tab characters.
