Hi community, we understand your needs in this feature and want to assure you were taking on board all your feedback.
As many of you accustom to this idea will know, multiple addresses requires a complex solution. It's been something we’ve been moving towards for some time and we’ve done a lot of back end work that will allow us to bring it to you in the future.
We have 12 different products within Xero that rely on contact data, as well as many of our app partners. This means that contacts need to seamlessly flow across technology, products and all connections on Xero. And that’s exactly what we’ve been working on.
One of the reasons we announced the retirement of classic invoicing is because many of the features being asked for, just can’t be brought into classic invoicing. The old technology has too many technology limitations to enable this. Change to new invoicing is key to being able to enable us to build features like multiple address details. Between now and September our invoicing team are focused on prioritising the features from classic invoicing that need to be brought across to the new version. Multiple addresses is one of the key features they want to work towards but includes many steps. For example, we enabled it in the back end of contacts last year, but now need to be able to build it into our new invoicing solution. We will keep you updated here of any progression.

Hi Everyone, I also urgently need this feature building in as standard. I love Xero but my client is less than convinced due to this missing multiple delivery address feature. Hope it gets sorted soon !

Ability to access an address book when sending a quote.
Some clients have multiple managers and the quote doesn't always go to the same person nor to accounts. Currently we have to cut and paste the email address in from another piece of software. which is quite time consuming

Each account should be able to have a child account under its parent. I have clients with many sites under one umbrella, making it challenging to enter each site as a new customer.

Ability to change the customer address on unique invoices (so not always the address of the contact)

As a compnay we supply services to property managers but they need the invoice to go directly to their landlords, to have to create multiple contacts for all the individual properties for the same client would be really complicated and would mean we don't have a proper history for the client as all invoices would be spread across multiple contacts.

The ability to set up one customer with multiple delivery addresses is a pretty basic function and one that many other on line providers offer as standard. Please release this functionality ASAP.

To allow multiple contacts under the same company.
Purposes: To save time changing of contact details, since some clients dealt with the same company with different people.
