Invoices - Import BCTI invoices
Xero should be able to import PDF BCTIs from other companies straight into Invoices, just like how Bills can be.
BCTIs are very commonly used and the amount of manual entry into Xero is excessive for our current time.1 voteAppreciate your feedback on how Smart document capture does not meet your needs, Sam.
We'll start to get a wider sense of interest and support for importing BCTI invoices like an upload feature similar to bills.
This isn't something we have plans for at present but we'll keep a watchful eye on this here, and share if there's any news.

Invoices - Due date for sales invoices 45 days
Invoices - Please could we have an option for due date to calculate 45 after the invoice date and then end of the month? EG invoice date 1st May 26, due date is 1st May 26 plus 45 days = 14th June, EOM = 30th June (due date). This is a common way to calculate due date in Southern Europe. Thank you!

Invoicing - New invoicing layout is due for an update
With the changes and improvements to the design of the Purchases overview > Bills page and tabs quite some time ago, it would be expected and easier to navigate through Xero if these design changes reflected in the Sales overview > Invoices page. The invoices page (despite the new invoicing experience when opening an invoice) is still the old outdated design that the Bills used to look like.
The bills and invoicing used to be the same design and while it's great to have an improved design in the bills section, it is sometimes not intuitive that the invoicing has…

Invoice template - Separate field for Business name
The new layout is problematic. When you select either physical or postal address, the business name is also pulled into the invoice. I need a different business name on different themed invoices and the only way to do this is to turn off address and in the ADDITIONAL BUSINESS INFO section add BOTH my business name and the address.
It would be much better if there was a separate toggle for the business name or if the address box was reworded so it said BUSINESS NAME & ADDRESS BOX and displayed what it actually pulls through. Only displaying the address…
1 voteAppreciate wanting more clarity and control of the Business name that is shown on your invoices, TJ.
We'll start to gather interest from the wider community in this here. I'll be sure to update if there are any plans put in place to support this.

Repeating Invoices - Ability to bulk update repeating invoices
Repeating Invoices - Ability to bulk update repeating invoices.
We provide a subscription service which some of the 470+ customers have been using for years.
At times we make changes to T&Cs, the wording, rates, payment services etc. and it would be extremely times shaving if we could do bulk changes i.e. change the Item, Due Date, Reference, Payment Services etc, without having to go into each repeating invoice individually.

Contact - Add Receipt Template option
Receipt Template options added to Customers Profile
To speed up sending receipts that may require different Receipt Theme Templates, reducing number of clicks etc.
By adding Receipt Theme Template option to customers profile (link we can do with Invoices) so when you click send receipt the selected Theme is already allotted to that customer.
1 voteThanks you for adding this idea Frank, its appreciated you explaining that being able to add a template for receipts as well as invoices is something you would like to see in the contact file. This idea is now open to votes and comments and you can share this with your friends and colleagues so we can get a gauge of community support. We will update the idea here if there are any changes.

Invoicing - Invoice status for An invoice that is still an order
Hi all,
I would like to float the idea of including an 'Order' button/tick box on the invoices.
The 'Order' flag would indicate that this Invoice is still 'In progress' and has not been fulfilled. In this situation the invoice has been created as the Quote has been accepted, however the invoice is not sent for payment until the order has been completed. This would also mean that this invoice is not included in the statement that is sent to the customer..
This would help with the customers that have terms and/or have agreed to not pre-pay, however pay on…

Invoices - Add a warning or lock when invoice is already being worked on by another user.
When two users open the same invoice draft on different devices and make changes simultaneously, only the changes made by the last person to save and close the invoice are retained, resulting in earlier changes being overwritten.
It would be very helpful if Xero could restrict invoice drafts to be opened by only one user at a time, or provide a warning/lock to prevent simultaneous editing and accidental data loss.

Import Xero Blue invoice details back to Xero Green financial tab
Can invoice details from Xero Blue be visible in Xero Green please. Draft invoicing is done by staff in Xero Green (XPM) and once approved at the Director level, is moved to Xero Blue for final invoice creation and sending to the client. There are some recurring invoices/company secretarial invoices that are done directly in Xero Blue so we can see in Xero Green that an invoice has been done, so it's definitely linked somehow, but we can't see any detail of the invoice, which is unhelpful when staff are trying to keep up with invoicing and ensure that we're…

Invoices - One-click to Approve, Mark as Sent & Email multiple invoices
It would be great to have a feature to Approve, Mark as sent & Email multiple invoices in one click from the Awaiting Approval Tab. We use a program outside of Xero to add invoice details & amounts and then export to Xero for approval and emailing. At present we have to take two steps to achieve the Approve, Mark as sent & Email result.

In the meantime, it is possible to bulk Approve invoices from the Draft tab. Once this is done, you'll get a message where you can click 'View invoices' and select them all to then Email.

Quote - "Copy to draft quote" to copy ALL details
"Copy to draft quote" to copy ALL details from the invoice.
Currently, when a new quote is created from and invoice using "Copy to draft quote", not all details are copied form the invoice.
For example, the currency is not copied from the invoice but from the customer's default currency (which may be different than the invoice's); I am not aware whether other parts of the invoice are not brought over to the quote.I contacted support who confirmed that this is a feature - it is actually done on purpose.
I think this is in fact a bug and…
4 votesThanks for sharing your feedback on this. We understand why it would be helpful to have complete confidence that all details carry over when copying an invoice to a draft quote. At this stage, we’re going to move this idea to Gaining support so we can continue tracking interest and better understand how many customers this impacts and the specific details they expect to be copied across. While we can’t commit to any changes right now, your feedback is valuable and helps inform how we assess possible improvements in this area 🙂

Inventory - Add Sales and Purchase columns to main inventory list
On the Products and services form/screen, have the ability to show and filter the Purchase and Sell tick boxs.
Then I can see products are only available on Sales or Purchase Orders or both!2 votesHi Roy, thanks for sharing this idea. We can see how having more flexibility in the Products and Services list view, including the ability to customise or add columns, could make it easier to review item details at a glance.
At the moment, additional item information can be accessed by opening individual records or exporting the list to CSV for review in a spreadsheet.
I've updated the status of this idea to Gaining Support so we can continue tracking interest from the community. If there are specific fields or columns you'd find most useful, we'd love to hear more about them.

Invoice templates - Ability to change position of Attention to
In new invoicing, please allow the option to shift where certain lines display. For example, the "attention" line is now above the business or contact name. While it's crucial to include "attention", we need the choice of where that line appears.
Also, we need the ability to change font sizes. From a design perspective, the balance of amount due and due date do not align with the other invoice elements, including the title "Invoice". We would like flexibility to adjust these items to reflect a more tasteful invoice design that aligns with our brand.
Thank you for your consideration.
1 voteHi Kristin, appreciate your feedback here. We have an existing idea around the ability to change the font size that I've just added you as a voter to so you'll be kept in the loop of any news.
I've slightly amended the title of your idea here so we can get a wider sense of interest in being able to change the position of the Attention to detail. We'll let you know here if there are any plans made around this.

Sales overview page - Option to show Invoices as Tax Exclusive
Kia ora Xero Product Team,
I’d like to raise a feature request regarding how invoice totals are displayed in Xero.
Currently, the Draft, Awaiting Approval, Sent, and Awaiting Payment invoice lists always display totals on a GST (tax) inclusive basis. For businesses like ours that operate and report primarily on a GST-exclusive basis, this creates unnecessary reconciliation effort and increases the risk of error when reviewing invoices in bulk.
While we can work around this by using the Receivable Invoice Detail report set to “Tax Exclusive,” this adds extra steps and does not provide the same quick visibility as the…

Projects -Ability to send separate statements for projects to same contact
We have two projects running under one contact and it is not possible to send two different statements. I have to duplicate the contact or create a manual statement.
3 votes🌟 Thanks so much for sharing this idea, Larissa. I can appreciate how frustrating it must be to have to duplicate a contact or create manual statements just to manage separate projects under the same customer.
We’ve moved this idea to Gaining Support so we can better understand how many customers this would help. We’ll continue to monitor community support and interest, as feedback like yours plays an important role in helping us understand where improvements are needed most.
We really appreciate you taking the time to explain your experience and the workaround you’re currently having to use.

User permissions - Read only access export all
read only is almost self defining - unfortunately read only users are not able to export (some) tables. The rational is that they are bundled with import. Can read only users have the right to export data.

Invoicing - Insurance / Surcharge Line at Bottom of Invoice
Summary:
Allow users to add a dedicated surcharge (e.g. insurance, card fee, handling) that appears as a distinct line below the subtotal on invoices, rather than as a regular line item.
Current LimitationAt present, any insurance recovery or surcharge must be entered as a standard line item. This:
Makes invoices look cluttered when the fee is not tied to specific products or services.
Can cause confusion for clients, who expect insurance/fees to be displayed separately (similar to how shipping or payment surcharges often appear).
Requires manual placement and formatting on each invoice, reducing efficiency and consistency.Proposed Solution:
Introduce…13 votesHi Joshua 👋It's really helpful for us to understand having the ability to add a surcharge or insurance line to invoices is a desirable option. We understand not having a dedicated field for surcharges or insurance can make it difficult to clearly communicate these extra costs to your customers. Currently manually adding a line item for the surcharge or using a custom branding theme to include the information are the only options💡Right now, we're not planning to add this as a specific feature, as our current focus is on some other features that will benefit a wider range of our customers, however we will monitor this for votes and comments from other users 📣

Invoices - Allow temporary client invoices without creating permanent contacts
In working with a client who uses Xero as their invoicing system, we’ve identified a practical workflow gap that may affect many small manufacturers and custom-service businesses.
The business does not operate a traditional point-of-sale system. Instead, they produce custom, made-to-order items such as signage and magnets for walk-in customers.
These transactions typically involve:
once-off customers
minimal customer details
immediate payment on collection
no expectation of repeat business
The business must provide proof of payment at handover while maintaining proper accounting records.
With increasing compliance expectations and the move toward e-invoicing, a streamlined method to issue a once-off invoice or…
4 votesThanks for sharing this suggestion, Anzelle. For businesses handling walk-ins or one-off custom work, creating a new contact for each interaction can add extra records to manage. A way to generate temporary or single-use invoices without saving a permanent contact could help support simpler record keeping while still allowing proof of payment.
We’ve moved this to Gaining Support so interest can be tracked and shared with our product teams for review alongside other workflow improvements.
