Document Packs - Edit sent pack
Be able to edit sent document packs.
Purpose: for when clients ask you to send the pack to a different email address or you want to rename the document pack, or add another document.
Hi community, thanks for your support and sharing in the idea here. Diving into your comments, there are a few different ideas that we're picking up on within this one thread;
- ability to change the email address/contact of a sent pack
- ability to add additional documents to a sent pack, and
- the ability to edit metadata of a sent pack
For the first, we'd like to better understand what is driving the need to change the email address? is it down to a typo when entering it? or if its on a tax return, is it wrong on the client record etc?
Although it's not possible to add additional documents to a pack right now, creating and sending a new document pack is essentially the same - Is there any reason this isn't suitable?
Lastly, it'd be good to get more substance of how the ability to rename a pack would be of use. Are there any instances you've needed this and can share?
Deeper understanding from you all will help the team determine what could be. 🙂

Seems fundamental.

Yes this. Also, to be able to have a customisable template for the covering email. And being able to set up and save contacts, that sign documents often. These features are both available under Xero Ask.

having only used document packs for a few weeks, i have already found this really frustrating that you can't edit an email address. Would be fantastic if this feature could be added

This is a must. Not sure why we cant? seems ridiculous and a simple change to make.

This is a feature that is available and we use with adobe sign . My understanding is document packs utilise the adobe platform so possibly a change at xero's end required to enable this.

Yes, it'd be far more efficient if you could just edit the signatory's email address rather than having to create a new document pack

Agree critical. Ability to amend / remove / substitute documents as well. Alternatively a copy feature.

concur with all comments, ability to add/amend email addresses or rename document pack is critical to optimise the use of Xero HQ.

This really is critical. Client has changed email addresses after I sent document pack - I don’t want to ‘cancel’ the pack - it will stay there as cancelled, when all I want to do is resend to the new address.

This is critical as client sometime change email address without let you know or would prefer it to go to work email or personal email
