Ability to mark multiple invoices as paid at the same time. Bulk Payments on invoices.
We often get cheques or direct deposits from companies that are covering 5-10 different invoices. CSV functionality would be overkill for what I need.
Right now I have to go into each invoice and mark them all separately as paid, and put a note that cites the total deposit amount so that we can keep track of the bank transactions.
On the customer's invoice page, I would like to be able to click a checkbox button for the invoices that are included on the cheque, and mark them as paid under one transaction.
With this check box functionality, you could…
2 votesHi team, it sounds like batch deposits would meet your needs here. From the Awaiting payments list view you could select up to 50 invoices to batch together as one payment. When the cheque or deposit appears in your account you could then just select the one transaction to reconcile.
While you can only batch 50 invoices at a time, you may like to add your vote and support on this idea, Peter. It's not something we have in planned development atm but if there's any change we'll update you all there.

Bank Feed - Support First Citizens Bank(FCB) Commercial Advantage feeds
Xero has some feeds for First Citizens but apparently not for FCB Commercial Advantage customers. It's worth noting that Commercial Advantage is for FCB's bigger customers albeit We're a $5MM revenue entity so we're not really that big. And Commercial Advantage is accessible nationwide (USA). Furthermore, FCB is not a regional bank anymore. I mean, they bought Silicon Valley Bank after the collapse so I think it's safe to say they've got some size to them. And the real kicker is that I currently download our statements in a Quicken format from FCB so they obviously could set up a…

Invoice-
automatically create a credit note if a customer is paying on multiple invoices and will have an overpayment.
1 voteHi Jodie, while Xero won't automatically create the credit note for you. If you are reconciling a single payment to multiple invoices, you can use Find & Match choose all the invoices, and then in section 2. choose 'New transaction' receive payment. When the screen opens the transaction to enter detail use the drop down next to 'Received as' to select Overpayment.

Balance Sheet - Bank Account assignment with tracking categories
When using Tracking Categories on the balance sheet, we should be able to assign specific bank accounts to specific columns (or tracking categories). it would just be a feature where the balance "as of date" just displays in the column, regardless of all the prior transactions.
Additionally, when paying loans, if a tracking category is assigned for balance sheet tracking purposes using columns, the Bank Balance that is transferred to the note becomes a Liability on the balance sheet. This is crazy. You're essentially reducing the Note liability balance & then increasing it by the same amount as a negative…
1 voteIt does sound like you've set up the Balance sheet in a bit of a niche way to track what you're after here, Sal. Appreciate you wanting more flexibility on how you filter tracking and being able to add a secondary filter for bank account.
I want to be open that this isn't something that we have plans for. We'll continue to track interest from your idea here, but would need to see quite a bit of community support to look at making a change for this in the report.

Invoice templates - Prevent past invoices from updating when a template is amended
Amendments to Invoice Templates.
If you make amendment to an Invoice, the amendment should only be applied from the date & time of the amendment & should Not apply the amendment to all your previous Invoices on your records already sent!
Note, currently the only way around this is to create a new template with the amendment.1 voteThanks Ian, for submitting your idea!

Invoices/Bills - Additional options/filters when viewing invoices/bills
- There should be an option so that we can arrange bills/invoices according to suppliers /customers when processing bills/invoices just like in dext .And next option should be included in both archive and during processing bills/invoices.
- Split and merge option should be included when processing bills/invoices. 3 There should be a filter for credit note, overpayment and prepayment in archive invoices.
1 voteHi Uzair, a few ideas shared in the one post here. It's really best if we can keep each idea separate so we can gather interest in each and keep you updated of change to the product that might resolve what's being asked.
In relation to your post here we have a couple of existing ideas you may also like to add your vote for and follow for any updates.
- Bills to pay - Filters to apply when editing bills (e.g Approve & view next)
- Bills - Merge multiple bills from one supplier
In relation to invoices, you'll find when approving invoices you can Approve and view next or Approve and add another.
From the draft tab in invoices you can also select multiple invoice and use the Copy to option to create one invoice from a collection of invoices which might help when looking to merge. This way once…

Payroll - Suggestion for a visual staff leave planner to manage overlaps and cover
A Planner with a visual representation of staff approved leave (with an option to note who is covering that leave) would be super helpful. We're trying to do this with with spreadsheets and it's diabolical - but the info is all there in Xero - seeing it in a planner would be AMAZING!
It would also assist with seeing overlaps to better manage additional requests for leave before approving them.1 voteThanks for sharing your idea, and letting us know the changes that matter most for you.
We've reviewed your idea and now it's up to the community to get behind and support it. Make sure you share your idea with any colleagues that this could benefit so they can add their vote too!

new invoicing
New invoicing - Not user friendly
I am sure that there are some great features with the new invoicing but I cannot see them!!
On the new invoicing screen, where do you see the exchange rate and the payment status of an invoice or if a credit note was applied to an invoice.
The Classic invoicing working well and if it isn't broken then don't fix it!
1 voteHi Celeste, appreciate your feedback here. Each of the points you've shared should be visible within new invoicing.
If you're entering a multi-currency invoice the exchange rate is shown at the top right of the invoice, and you should see the status of the invoice i the top left beneath the blue banner e.g Awaiting Payment, Paid etc.
I've attached an image of this for your reference.

Lock dates - Allocate past years overpayments to invoices outstanding after accounts are closed
Hi, Please can we have the ability to allocate past years overpayments to invoices outstanding after the accounts are closed. These accounts do not form part of the main ledgers, being personal accounts, therefore the allocations should be made possible, as they were in Microsoft MOA. This would tidy up much of the personal accounts for customers and suppliers.
I look forward to a favourable response.Supplier Accounts - Also, are you looking at being made available, statement histories for the suppliers as asked for several years ago and Xero said they were working on it? This is very much…
1 voteHi Iris, it sounds like you're using Lock dates here and would like to allocate credit from an overpayment that was created in a locked period to an invoice after the lock date.
Atm, if you'd like to allocate credit you could either remove the lock date to do this, or apply a refund to the original overpayment and recreate and apply the overpayment for a date post the lock date. We'll continue to track the interest of this here, however want to be open that we don't have plans to change the behaviour of lock dates currently.

Projects - See all unpaid bills linked to a Project invoice
When I assign supplier invoices to a project then charge the client those amounts and get paid, at the moment to then go and pay those supplier invoices after being payed by the client I have to note down all the invoice numbers then go into bills to pay and find all the invoices to create a batch payment. it would be helpful to be able to pay the bills attached to the invoice through the project tab or even be able to select an invoice in the bills tab and have it show all the bills attached to that…

New Invoicing - Consolidated invoice process voiding the original invoices automatically
Consolidated invoices:
Have a proper feature that allows us to consolidate customer invoices rather than the "copy to" or "merge" as this does not tack the consolidation.
So the example us Customer A has 15 invoices you bill on 20th of each month but want to consolidate all 15 into 1 invoice to send them with all line items (not statements). Then the 15 invoices consolidated would be zero'd or closed off with a note saying the old invoice reference and where they were consolidated to into the new single invoice.Statements won't work, with the copy or merge you…
1 voteHi Keith, thanks for sharing this idea. We understand the consolidated invoice feature is an area of interest for our customers. The scenario you've described, combining multiple invoices into one with proper tracking, provides really helpful context. Your idea has now moved to Gaining Support, which means it's open for the community to show their support through votes and comments. Thanks for contributing to making Xero better ✨.

Inventory - Report for item rentals
We are a meadery that often sells mead in kegs. This idea would also apply to breweries.
I use a "Keg" inventory item to track the physical keg shells. I use a separate item for the product inside the keg. So an invoice for one keg will show two items: the mead itself and the keg. This helps me keep track of our physical kegs on hand, weather they are full or empty.
When a client returns a keg, they receive a credit note for returning the keg. In addition to getting their deposit back, this keeps my inventory correct.
…
1 voteHi Kent, I know it's sometime since you started your idea here. However, coming back across it now it sounds like you could use customer Smart Lists or the Inventory Item Details report to view customers that you have sold specific items too within a period.

Hubdoc - Use consistent naming for transaction types
Just wanted to feedback some issues found during brief testing of Hubdoc (as potential replacement for Dext; we'll not be proceeding at this stage) ... here's what we found:
- different naming conventions - “Credit Note/Refund” equivalent (not sure what it is?) not as intuitive
- for multi-line entries, it doesn’t tell you what the remaining balance on a bill is (it does provide running total of lines entered but requires external 'calc' action)
- clunkier on mobile phone - have to log in each time whereas Dext is just snap and go
- no option to do multiple page…1 voteAppreciate your feedback, Rich. It really helps if each idea you is raised separately. This way others know exactly what they're adding their vote for here in community, our product teams can get a sense of interest in a particular feature and we can keep users updated if there are plans made specifically for that functionality.
In terms of your ideas here I see you've titled your idea to reflect the first point you've raised, it looks like there are a few existing ideas that relates to items you've mentioned, otherwise you're welcome to start a new idea for each other point. Thanks

STP Finalisation - Add a prominent warning before finalising to confirm the year
The lack of warnings, pop ups or anything relating to accidentally finalising STP for the wrong financial year is pretty disappointing.
I work on a large screen and didn't see the tiny little 2025-26 drop down menu top right. I've selected the employees to finalise and proceeded with the wrong year. At no point was there a warning, note, message or anything to bring light to it being the wrong year.
Yes I know I should have concentrated more, yes I realise now the financial year is displayed at the top of the confirmation screen, but for something that has…1 voteThank you for submitting your idea and highlighting the key improvements you'd like to see.

Glitches in the software
I've always felt like your software was created by people who have never used the software themselves because some of the pathways and defaults just don't make sense. Note: I access Xero using the Chrome browser.
Here are some changes that could be made that would really improve the user experience with Xero:When I'm entering bills, some date fields want me to enter the date like this: date/month/year and other times it wants me to enter it like this: month/date/year. It's very frustrating having to switch back and forth randomly.
After I finish putting in a bill, I click…
1 voteHi Jenna, we appreciate your feedback and the detail you've given is great. However, it's best that strange behaviour or performance issues are shared with our specialists at Xero Support who have tools to be able to investigate and escalated with our team if something isn't working as it should.
There are a couple of your points I wanted to confirm here;
- Bills to pay - you are able to set a default page for this. It sounds like it may currently be set to Paid bills in your org. You can set the default by clicking the 3 dots in the top right of the page where you'll see 'Default bill page' to select your preference
- Default for bills due date - From the same place you can go to for invoice (Invoice settings) you can set a default Due date for your bills.
I'd recommend raising a case…

NZ Payroll: To be able to backdate a change in employees pay
I would like to have the ability to reflect a new increase from the agreed-upon date. Often, salary reviews occur after the financial year-end and need to be backdated. However, Xero does not allow for backdating when other payroll systems do. You have to make a note of the actual start date, which isn't reflected in any reporting, making it not very useful.
Additionally, there should be the ability for an advanced support person to modify information, enabling them to roll back a change. I recently encountered an issue where third-party software changed the review date of a salary to…

Not all functions of new inbox Accessible - infinite tabs to download file
The new inbox removed the 'download' option from the kebab on each line of the list of files. The only way now to download a file without using a mouse is to tab to the right spot to open the new preview pane, then either tab all the way to the bottom of the list plus 5 more tabs to get to the download button OR reverse tab similarly large numbers of times to get to the download button via all the menu bar items, then press enter (space doesn't activate this button).
