    Hi there 👋, like mentioned (Thanks Freya) when using new invoicing and you enter any data in the current line a new line will automatically be added below so you don't need to manually add new lines 🙂

  2. I get a monthly insurance bill for all my rental properties. Would like to associate the cost of each to the appropriate property.

    Hi Coleman, this is possible with the use of Tracking. You could set up one of your tracking categories as properties and list each of your properties as an option. Then when you're entering documents in Xero you can assign each line of your bills, invoices and other document types to the property it relates. 🙂

  3. Have an option that allows you to drag and upload receipts from desktop

    Hi team, we're going to move this idea across to delivered. As mentioned in my last update there are a few automated ways you could get your receipts into Xero.

    You can;

  4. Current volume limit is too low. I can't even run the account transaction report including all the account codes for the whole financial year. It's not ideal to run a few report and add together. Strongly recommend Xero increasing the volume limit for the report.

  5. When managing the finances for rental properties it would be great if a default rate could be set up against the 'Account' for rent payments so that the Unit Price ie weekly rent, doesn't have to be entered each time (52 times a year)

  8. Add another option on the SAVE button for Supplier Invoice entry (and Sales I guess but we don't use XERO for our Sales) to enable a previously entered invoice to be copied from and then SAVED as a RECURRING INVOICE. There have been many times I would love to have had this option.

  9. If I use the Receive Money option from the menu: when selecting the customer I would like Xero to give me an option to SELECT INVOICE to apply money to OR create a new transaction. Much easier than going to customer - add payment etc. Again look for some inspiration from other products.

    Hi Hennie, if an invoice already exists related to a payment receive money should not be used. Rather than having to add a payment to the invoice or bill, you can simply use the Find & Match tool within the Reconcile tab to locate and match with the statement line.

  10. The classic version allowed me to enter payments manually, I can't seem to see this feature with the new version.

    Hi Mandy, it's in a slightly different place in new invoicing but on an approved invoice there is an 'Add payment button in the top right of the screen. This'll open a modal where you can enter payment details.

  11. Ability to add photos or external files to invoice emails. Common need in construction

  12. On 31 July 2023 my old Trial Balance that shows the current movement per the months selected as well as the YTD figures will be discontinued. It will be replaced by a Trial balance that only shows the YTD figures and the comparative figures with the previous year. That doesn't help me at all when I have to do a monthly management report and can only see the YTD figures. I'm begging you, don't discontinue the old Trial Balance report! Or at least give me the option between displaying YTD figures and the movement for a specific period.

    Hey community, just popping back as promised! We’ve rolled out an update to the Trial Balance report this morning, adding in two new additional columns that show the monthly movement, similar to the older report. You can add in these optional columns from the Columns drop down menu - I’ve attached a screenshot for reference.

    Thanks again for all your feedback on the new reports 😊

  13. Allow the Xero app to take photos of receipts at the time of purchase. To reduce the number of steps to get a photo of a receipt attached to a transaction.

    Ideally then when reconciling credit card transactions, the receipts will already be in Xero and they would pop up as a suggestion, based on the date of the transaction with the date the photo was taken.

    It would also be ideal if you could view the receipt whilst coding, like it does when you are viewing a draft bill to pay.

  14. When editing a report in the financial statements, it would be great if there was an option to preview just that page and not the whole document. Ie if editing balance sheet , have the option to open a pdf of just that page ( but keep the whole doc on a sept PDF- so two options)
    Would just be so much faster to preview the actual page I'm working on, and not having to wait for the whole document to open, than scroll/find the bal sheet

    Thanks for all your contributions and feeding back to the team on your needs in this space. I'm pleased to share that we have now released our new preview panel to all users.

    When you open the layout editor of a report you'll see PDF preview of your report on the right hand side, so you can see how changes you're making to your report impact it 'on the fly'. 🥳

  15. When importing a bank statement, it would be great if just before completing the import, Xero could show the end bank statement balance based on the existing bank balance and the transactions that are about to be imported. This could then be checked with the actual bank statement to make sure it matches.

  16. When a sales invoice is created, there should be a place where i can see what is the gross profit. If not, I would have to go back and forth between the inventory module and the sales invoice module to maunally calculate.

  17. The new invoicing will not allow e-invoicing without an ABN attached which defeats the purpose . Bring back the classic invoicing.

  18. When emailing an invoice to a customer there is an option to insert a link to the invoice. However the link is always placed at the end of the message and I have to cut and paste it where I want it in the message.

    Could the link not be inserted where the active cursor is instead? Saving the user the hassle of moving the link.

    See mock up.

    Hi community, with the improved send experience in new invoicing you'll find this is now possible. 

    When you add the Online Invoice link through placeholders, you'll see it is automatically inserted wherever the cursor is placed in the email on the left and you can get an instant visual of what this looks like to your customer on the right. 😊

  19. Classic invoicing feature missing from new invoicing format

    Some of our clients like to prepay so there are often credits to use. Upon approving an invoice, the classic used to say there was a credit available on that contact, click here to use it. There is no such feature on the new invoicing to indicate there is a credit available you have to go and manually check. As well as not informing you of an available credit, if you look at the new approved invoice there is no way apply an existing credit (only to create and apply a new…

    Hi Claire, when you approve an invoice for a customer that has available credit, you'll receive a prompt. If you choose to 'Skip for now', you should see an option to 'Apply credit' on the approved invoice. I've attached a screenshot of these in new invoicing. 

    If you're not seeing either of these options, I'd suggest double checking the name of the contact the credit note has been created for, and raising a case with our specialists at support to take a deeper look into things with you. 

  20. Ability to close and lock a period for accounting and reporting purposes to ensure that, once figures are reported and published, those figures do not change. Any necessary changes (VAT rates, corrections etc) to source documents could be made but the impact should fall in the current, open period.

    Hi team, returning to the idea here there are a few separate asks being raised. As mentioned in my last update on the idea here - currently for reporting purposes you can Publish report to keep a record of accounts at an as at date in the system. Alternatively to stop transactions being raised in past periods there are the existing lock date options.

    We have separate ideas for the recording a posting versus invoice date and another for setting separate tax and accounting period lock dates that I'd recommend adding your votes for if this is more what you're after.
