New Invoicing - 'Upload Files' and 'Add from file library' options switched
New Invoicing has switched the position of Add from file library and Upload files. Whilst this may seem a small change, users are familiar with the order from left to right and I personally keep clicking the wrong one. Changing this order has no streamlining purpose so can it please be changed back?

Purchase Order - Delivery Date for each line item
Ability to add a delivery date to the purchase order for each line item.
29 votesHey community, thanks for your continued interest and feedback. Just wanted to pop in here to share that in current state you could include the Delivery Date in the Description field for each line on the purchase order, and this will appear on the order your supplier receives.
However, if anything changes in this space, we’ll update you on this idea!

Invoicing | History - Show detail of action made
With the currect feature History and note report we are able to see which invoice for example has been edited - change name of invoice - reconciled etc. However we would like to have a more detailed view, for example if an invoice is booked in USD and someone will change the currency in EUR we are not able to see this change , we can see only that the invoice is edited by X person but we are not able to see the change. How can we have this feature?
26 votesHi everyone, we wanted to provide an update of a recent change we have made where you'll now see the email address of the primary email entered in the To field is recorded in history each time an invoice is sent. You can read more about this change in my update here.
As mentioned on that thread there are a couple of unique scenarios we are tidying up and I'll return to confirm once that is complete.

New Invoicing - Option to leave Discount field on or off permanently
A function that was used 100% of the time in classic invoicing
2 votesHi Amy, although discount column may not be visible when you first use new invoicing, you can use the Show/hide fields option to choose which fields and columns are displayed - including Discount, and Save your preferences.
Next time you create an invoice for a customer using new invoicing you'll see your field preferences from the last invoice should be in the new one.

New invoicing - Hide Tax Rate column
In New Invoicing we can now hide the tax amount column. As this is for organisations that are not registered for tax, the Tax Rate column is also redundant so would it be possible to hide that too? We are set up as No VAT Scheme so both these columns just get in the way and it seems odd that we can mask one but not the other when you only ever need both or neither.
While we're at it, could we do the same in Billing?
Thanks

Reporting - View payment reference and date paid
Reporting - to run a report that can show payment information (eg. paid date) and reference/item information.
A report under cash basis does not show the reference that I put on the invoice reference or the item information chosen in the invoice, it is really hard to search receivable payment based on the information I need (PFA).
A xero support specialist explained that because there is no reference on the payment, I can only search by Contact name or invoice number. But, when we do reconciliations to match the bank received with the invoice, there is nowhere to add…18 votes -
Reporting - Ability to view transactions including date of transactions & date created
Transactions posted after a period end affecting prior periods
Lock dates had not been set and as a result, there has been a few entries in to the last financial year.
How can I locate these entries?I have tried a transaction report, but there are no parameters that I could enter.
Ideally.Example -
Our year end is 31st August.
I would like a report that looks for transactions entered between dates 1/4/22 - 21/9/22 that have a transaction date up to 31.8.21 (last year end)In other accounting systems, you could take a unique reference number…
12 votesHi Kellie, you might find History & notes useful for getting the insight you're after here.
Though it's not possible to filter by the transaction date - You can set a date range like you've mentioned to view activity that has occurred post your orgs year end and ability to filter by Item types so you just view the item types you're interested in.
Keen to hear if this helps.

New invoicing - Integrate with Chrome Exporting Tables extension
In original invoicing the Chrome CopyTables extension worked to copy the data from the invoice into Excel for creating pivot tables; that feature doesn't work in new invoicing. We work with multiple vendors on a single project and it's significantly easier to place those orders by copying the tables from Xero into Excel and creating a pivot table. If the base code can't be adjusted to work with extensions like that than being able to export an invoice as a CSV would be helpful.
1 voteHi Jonathan, appreciate the feedback however this is something you'd need to contact Chrome about in relation to how their extension works and if any change can be made to apply to Xero's new invoicing

New invoicing | Send - Find email
With the old Invoice system, the message will correctly prompt the email address for that contact. If I choose instead, to send the message to another contact email first, I simply clear the prompted address and begin to type the intended address and the full address is usually prompted after typing the 1st 3 letters. Is there a way we can make the NEW INVOICES do this? Surely this can be done in the new Invoice Format..???

Lock Dates - Allow old bills/invoices to fall into current accounting period
Once you close a period, pulled all the accounts and happy with the financial position, you close the period to stop posting to that period. But when you receive a old supplier invoice, which has been accrued in, Xero does not allow you to post the invoice without re-opening the period date. This means, you either reverse your accrual journal to post the older invoice, changing the financial position or manully altering the invoice date, to post it into current period. Increases workload and hassle. It also means your supplier account does not mirror with their accounts with …

Support French e-invoicing legislation
Purpose : Starting september 2026 or 2027 dependng on the size of business, all the invoices for French companies should respect the new legislation for e-invoicing.
Is Xero planning to be accredited by French admin as a registered software ? (https://www.impots.gouv.fr/liste-des-plateformes-de-dematerialisation-partenaires-pdp-immatriculees-sous-reserve)
It would be very helpful for all the companies doing business in France.

Invoicing - Template invoice including an inventory item
Permanent inventory item on a specific invoice template
For example, we are an automotive repair shop
If I was to have a specific invoice template for 'vehicle servicing' and would like every service invoice to come up with Sundries and Freight automaticallyThis would be a great way to save time as well as making sure everything is being charged out correctly
11 votesHi everyone, thanks for your interest in the idea here. While we don’t have immediate work planned for adding the ability to enable permanent items within an invoice template, as mentioned in my last update an option for now would be to create a 'dummy' contact that you could create invoices for and leave in a draft status. When you want to use that invoice as the template you can then use the copy to option.
On a separate note, our teams are doing some more discovery to better understand our invoicing users and we wanted to engage you all here.
As we continue to plan further developments within invoicing, our product teams would like to better understand our invoicing users for future improvements. If you'd be interested in giving your input, we’d appreciate your feedback and have a survey here ✍️that will just take a few mins to fill…

Repeating bills - Due date options to include 'working days' not just 'calendar days'
I have a repeating bill that is set up with the due date 14 days after invoice date. This is fine except the date calculated is 14 calendar days and the bill is actually due after 14 working days. Is it possible to have an option that allows for working days rather than calendar days?

Invoicing - Auto send receipt when payment applied to invoice
Allow XERO to automatically send a receipt to a client when an invoice is paid in part or in full.
105 votesThanks for all the feedback and detail on your needs in the idea here. As you'll see from each others comments there are different points at which businesses would want to be automating this process. Not really a one size fits all approach.
As noted in recent comments, we recently made a change for new invoicing flow where (like classic) you can now choose to Send receipt from the payment confirmation that's shown once you apply a payment to an invoice.
At this time we don't have plans for automating this flow however we're still attuned to the idea here and will be sure to share if there are any plans made toward this in the future.

Invoicing - Show Delivery Address on invoices by default
Enable the option for invoices to by default display both billing and delivery addresses.
25 votesHi team, while not a 'default' option for this within Xero, you could achieve this using a Custom DOCX branding theme, with an advanced invoice template.
With the template open in Microsoft Word, you can add the ContactPhysicalAddress merge field where you want their Delivery Address to appear.
You can add your logo and make any other changes you'd like, before saving the file and uploading it back into your branding theme in Xero.
You'll then want to select this custom branding theme for your invoices.

New Invoicing - Ability to remove tracking using keyboard
We use two tracking category's depending on which country the transaction relates to, the category options are the projects in that country, if a tracking option has been added to the wrong category on an invoice and you need to remove it you can't leave the category blank, on the old invoices and other areas of Xero you have (none) under the category options which you can choose if it is to be blank but this option is not there on the new invoicing
4 votesHey everyone, thanks again for suggesting this. Good news – the new line item grid is live for everyone now.
With this update, getting rid of tracking is way easier. You can just hit backspace and tab through the fields, or we've also popped in a 'No tracking' option in the dropdown. We appreciate your feedback through product ideas – it really helps!

Invoicing - Adding a payment refund
Sometimes clients pays an invoice but then if a refund is issued from that invoice to the same client, in Xero there is no option to add a refund on an invoice, you can only add a payment.
You can only add a refund on a CN but no always there is a CN available.
When a company has multiple clients and there is a large movement of funds, refunds and payments it is very difficult to keep track of these and a suspense account has to be used and therefore be reconciled at the end of the year. Is…13 votesHi Sara, along with Credit Notes, there is also facilities for Overpayment and Prepayments. Would these commonly fit the scenarios in which you're describing here where large amounts of funds are transferred and perhaps a business overpays their invoices to the business through which a refund is then issued?
Bein quite a tied in feature to the payments model I want to be open that we don't have any immediate plans for changing this or adding a new type of transactions that would directly add refunds to an invoice.
