I am so mad at the utter stupidity of this decision that I can't even type an eloquent response.
We send invoices between our 11 companies. This is going to cost us so much extra processing time even using a third party app for eInvoicing, since Xero then uses our logo to determine the contact/supplier instead of using the company name on the invoice.

We have more than 50 clients on Xero. We send our invoices to all of them using Xero-to-Xero network. We will have to enter upload invoices to each client. It does not make sense.

Very disappointed!

Bring back the Xero Network key for sales invoices

The new format sales invoices doesn't include the Xero-Xero link to send a copy of the invoice to draft bills in the customer's Xero.

This is a time saver for accountants and bookkeepers. Although the link is still available with classic invoices until 20/11/2024, it won't be available after that date.

Can we have the link included with the new format sales invoice?

We have 12 Xero accounts as we have multiple businesses and create many internal invoices monthly, some of these invoices are 20-30 lines long. We have relied on the Xero network to send these invoices across the businesses and to not have it will cost us time and money. We will have to enter each invoice twice. This is easily an extra 1-2 days work for us. Once as the invoice and once as the bill in the business it is going to. I really hope that Xero decides to reintroduce this function as we would seriously consider moving our software to someone that can accommodate this. Very disappointed.

Seems bizarre that Xero would not enable invoicing across the Xero Network... why would you want to maintain a world class and exclusive feature of your software. We have 120 satellite businesses that benefit from this feature. Entry below talks about Mayday... so we need to use another app to make Xero work efficiently? So disappointed.... :-(

In response to David Tuck - I have been using Mayday and it saves me so much time when it comes to dealing with intercompany recharges between Xero entities and I highly recommend Mayday whether it is for creating recharge invoices (or journals) or balancing intercompany reconciliations.

Hi everyone. It's worth looking at whether Mayday https://www.getmayday.com/ could help you here.

We enable you to automate the calculation of your intercompany recharges and then one click post them simultaneously into both Xero organisations (you can do the same for any intercompany interest).

We also have a brilliant browser extension, BRAG (bank reconciliation across the group) that enables you to match a bank transaction in one entity to a bill or invoice in the other and post to the relevant intercompany codes, all without switching Xero files

We won Xero's Emerging App Partner of the Year award in 2023, have 229 reviews at a perfect 5.0 star rating on the App Store and have been called a "multi-entity must have"

I have now created and Off Site petition..... Petition for Xero to stop making changes...

I raised a support case about this in the first instance and was told the following, which goes against the statement by Xero here. Who are we to believe? Why is Xero so dysfunctional and seemingly intent on alienating their paying customers?

"It is currently not possible to send an invoice via the Xero to Xero network key directly from new invoicing.

While it will not be possible to send Xero to Xero invoices from the new invoicing creation screen, we are actively developing an enhanced Xero to Xero experience for our customers.

In the meantime, you can continue to use classic invoicing for Xero to Xero invoicing until it is retired on 20 Nov 2024.

You can add your thoughts on new invoicing on our Product Ideas page."

This is crazy, this feature was the most efficient way for our company to send invoices between entities. By taking this feature away, you are literally going to add days onto our month end and day to day processing. I am very disappointed by this decision, clearly this decision was made by someone that doesn't understand its customer base especially those that have multiple entities.

Someone at XERO was not using their brain when making this decision. I now need to hire an entirely new department just to do intercompany invoicing for our over 40 entities. Complete waste of time going forward.

Efficiency down the drain.

This is madness. Xero are slowly and painfully alienating all their customers and will then be surprised that they go elsewhere.

I can't understand why this feature has been put on the shelf. I now have to manually enter all of my own invoices into each client's accounts that I work for when before it was such a simple and efficient tool. Such a shame.

It's wild that this feature is being left out of New Invoicing. It's such a handy and intuitive way to send invoices between organizations - and eliminate unnecessary data entry or third-party applications. Please bring this back.

With so many intercompany entries, Xero to Xero is a key feature which we use. It is an excellent feature and saves so much time sending and receiving invoices from various companies, my vote is to include on the new invoicing please. We need this function please.

Please guys we need this function ASAP.

I also find Xero to Xero invoicing really handy so would love to see it retained (or regained) after the switch to the new invoicing. Why drop existing functionality?

I use the Xero to Xero invoice function almost everyday, so to find that this isn't included in the new invoicing is a major disappointment.

Really need this reinstated please Xero

New invoice-continue the Classic version function of Send invoice.
In New invoice, when invoice is sent, drafted bill cannot be found on the Receipient.
This function is suggested to maintain as drafted bill can save lots of fill-in work.

I'm glad to see I'm not the only one that was stunned to learn this functionality was being retired. Hope that decision is reversed and it's added to the New Invoicing soon!
