CIS deduction after retention - subcontractor invoices
When creating subcontractor bills and deducting retention, the CIS includes the retention when calculating the deduction
For example, XERO should read:
£250.00
minus 3% retention (£7.50)
£242.50
minus CIS (£48.50)
= £194.00HOWEVER, XERO calculates:
£250.00
minus 3% retention (£7.50)
minus CIS (£50.00) (off the gross amount not the amount after retention deducted)
= £200.00This means that CIS deduction is incorrect.
There is no way around this currently even though similar issues have been raised since 2019 on Xero discussion threads and no solution has been made.
The only way around it offered by Xero means that payment &…32 votes -

Batch Deposit - Create multi contact deposit without invoices
In QB you can "create a deposit" and in each line item, you can assign a customer, assign a GL account, class & amount. (there is also a line to assign to an invoice/customer ledger if you use those). You can then print a deposit slip from this as well!
PLEASE make this function available.
It is a hassle to enter every check or payment into "Receive Money", then have to go back and try to match up all the correct payments to the bank deposit in the bank reconciliation.
But if we don't do it like that, we cannot…5 votes -
Invoice - Add notes/comments line item
Ability to add 'comment' only lines on invoices that run the full width of all the invoice table boxes.
Purpose: Users often want to add some comments specifically to a client in the line item.
95 votesHi everyone, understand the difference between a description only line and what's being asked for in the idea here.
This isn't something we have planned at present.
We do want to highlight the existing option for anyone interested that could benefit from the option mentioned earlier in the conversation (thanks, Paco)
Currently, it is possible to 'description' only lines to an invoice (with no Qty or Price) where you can enter up to 4000 characters worth of detail that could help you signal a note within an invoice to your customer.
We will continue to assess ideas in the forum here and let you know if there are any changes surrounding this to share.

Sales Invoices - Reference field for each line item
It would be great if the Reference field was moved to the body of the sales invoice so that you could add item line referencing with the option to enable the referencing to print on the sales invoice.
For example, a plumbing business completes work for a customer that has multiple rental properties. If the reference field was in the body of the sales invoice, they could add the applicable property address here so that they and the customer could differentiate what work was completed at each property for the invoiced period.
Currently, you would have to invoice separately for…

Projects - Order invoices by date
When converting xero projects / Invoice
6 employees work for the last month gets dumped on to the invoice in alphabetical order and from the latest date they worked
The client needs to see this in cronological order and with each task for the said date
eg
1 July
Dave
Fred
jim2 july
Dave
Fred
JimAt the moment this task of ordering said invoices can take about half an hour of ferrying each transaction up and down the page. Before Editing
So needs a filter button installed to do this please

Invoices - Support Pay Now with Foreign Currency
The Pay Now option is not visible on the online page of an invoice when the currency of the invoice does not match the organisation's default currency. This is especially annoying when Payment Services such as Stripe are set-up as they can easily process multiple currencies.
Moreover, as it is not (or poorly) documented that Payment Services are not usable when using a foreign currency, it just seems to be a bug. I contacted support who responded with the following:
"The Pay Now button on an invoice only shows if the currency of the invoice or payment account is the…

Sales Invoice - Auto allocate Overpayments based on Invoice date
Just an idea that might help a lot of businesses.
We generate a lot of invoices over the span of one month, the feature of bank rules are amazing, but ineffective if the payment is a overpayment.I would like to have a way for Xero to have a Global setting to auto allocate overpayments to the oldest invoice for customers.
Currently overpayments will go to the customer account and just lay there until manually allocated to an invoice.
With bank rules it will automate the process by adding payments as overpayments to the customer account and then auto allocating…

User Roles - Restrict the ability to edit approved invoices
There is a significant risk to accuracy allowing the ability to edit an approved invoice without further approval from a higher access tier to what is already provided.
We have experienced a number of clients sending out the invoices to their clients and then editing the invoices, resulting in differences between the original invoice and that on the system. There is no real audit detail either.
Therefore, the request is to consider introducing an additional access level restricting the editing / amending of documentation after approval.

Bills - Prompt an alert for duplicate Purchase Invoice references when approving from list
Ability to alert a user when there’s duplicate invoices references when they’re about to approve it.
Purpose: To prevent when user approved invoices in bulk through either the Draft or Awaiting Approval sections. So they can double check
41 votesOur duplicate bills detection is now live! 🥳Xero will compare the contact, reference and amount of bills and credit notes to identify and help you review possible duplicates.
Where duplicates are picked up you'll see a banner above the bills list where you can click to review, this option is also available from the 3 dot menu in the top left of the list.
From the review page you'll be able to take action on any unpaid bills. See more on this feature in Xero Central.
Thanks for all your contribution and sharing how we can improve Xero for you.

Invoices - Option to include credit note PDF when emailing invoices
If you send an Invoice per mail to a client, a credit note that is linked to the invoice should be attached to the mail with the invoice too.
Currently, you have to send two separate mails.
If you send an invoice, you have several check boxes like "add invoice as pdf". There should be the option "add credit not as pdf".4 votes -
VAT group feature - Option to prepare and finalise individual returns for non-MTD VAT organsiations

Project supplier invoices
Scenario - Multiple projects open. If materials are purchased at eg a builders merchants for mutliple projects on one invoice/receipt, it's not possible to allocate the spend to individual projects which is madness. It seems that the total invoice/receipt must be assigned to ONE particular project. When materials are bought, it's often far cheaper to buy them in bulk, hence buying for more than one project at the same time. It should be possible to therefore assign individual lines on the invoice to a particular project (a bit like tracking).
4 votesHi Clare, if you're adding an expense from within a project, it's expected that the expense you're creating is related to the Project you're in. You could create a Bill within the Bills to pay area where you can assign individual lines of your bill to different Projects.

Invoices - products and services
Products & Services - When creating a new item code, and saving the amount to $0.00 so that amount can be entered when creating invoices, it would be great if draft invoices rettained all the information that populates - such as description, account code and tax rate.
At present I am having difficulty saving a new item under Producst & Services with $0.00. Then when creating an invoice for my client to complete, manually entering $0.00 and saving, he opens the draft invoice and the item code is still visible but nothing else.
I have done a work around…
