  1. user/location defined calendar layout: the option of setting Monday as first day of the week as an option would benefit a lot of people.

  2. Show Net (ex-VAT) and VAT totals in Invoice list views (Awaiting Payment & Drafts).

    For UK VAT-registered businesses, the current invoice list views (including Invoices Awaiting Payment and Draft invoices) only show gross totals including VAT. This makes it difficult to understand true cashflow, as the VAT portion is not money the business gets to keep and will be payable to HMRC.
    It would be extremely useful to be able to either:
    Display Net (ex-VAT) and VAT as separate columns in these invoice list views, or
    Toggle between Gross and Net totals in the list view summary.
    This would allow…

  3. Move add payment popup window so not to cover reference numbers

    You closed the comments section after asking for a reply @Haroon Subhani

    Single screen you can move the popup window which needs the reference number but it is covered by the pop up

  4. Purpose : Starting september 2026 or 2027 dependng on the size of business, all the invoices for French companies should respect the new legislation for e-invoicing.

    Is Xero planning to be accredited by French admin as a registered software ? (https://www.impots.gouv.fr/liste-des-plateformes-de-dematerialisation-partenaires-pdp-immatriculees-sous-reserve)

    It would be very helpful for all the companies doing business in France.

    Hi everyone, great to see interest building around support for French e-invoicing. As France moves towards new digital invoicing requirements, it's understandable that you'd want a smoother way to manage this in Xero.

    At this stage, Xero’s e-invoicing features are available in AU, NZ, UK, SG, and MY. While expansion to more regions is something we’re actively looking into, this particular request is still in the early stages.

    The idea’s now in Gaining Support. If this would help simplify things for your business, adding your vote or sharing your opinions would help us get a clearer picture of the demand.

    We’ll post updates here as soon as there’s more to share.

  5. Please move the SAVE for the New invoicing to the bottom as per old invoicing. When you have an invoice with 30-50 items and then have to scroll back up to save it adds to the pressure of getting things done.

    Or Better still

    Leave the old there until you've got it together and your Paid subscribers are happy.
    We are seriously looking at moving away from XERO due to all the changes you impose on us without proper UAT. More often than not it creates more work for us and causes more stress we just dont need in an…

    Hi team, I know it's been some time since we last updated this idea. Please know we have close eyes on this feature and this is a change our product team are currently working on.

    While we can't give a definite timeframe work is progressing well and we'll keep you updated of when this is available, here. Thanks for your engagement with us through product ideas.

  6. It would be good if Xero allows for stripe surcharge fee adjustment for both domestic and international customers, not just domestic customers.

  7. A problem I have each month is when preparing sales invoices - I use several branding themes, one of which is for the AdFin integration.

    It would be ideal to be able to see on the invoice list (in Sales > Invoices) which theme was attached to each invoice, it would be further beneficial to be able to select a bunch of invoices and bulk change the theme where required.

    ON A COUPLE OF OCCASIONS NOW I HAVE ACCIDENTALLY TABBED TO THE AMOUNT COLUMN AND ENTERED A QTY.

  9. When on pretty much any view, sometimes you just need to copy an invoice number (or a few).

    Now, when you click on a line, it goes to the invoice.

    Please give an option to disable the click to go to invoice/credit/bill, and allow us to click on a line to highlight/copy as right now it gets annoying - you have to click, but then press escape quickly enough, or, download as a CSV which just takes too long.

    Thanks

    Hi William, thanks for your reply here.

    I've checked the Invoices and Bills pages, and see much the same sort of behaviour. For example, when trying to highlight an invoice number in the Number column, or the Reference column for Bills, it tends to take you into the transaction.


    Thanks for sharing your idea about how you would like to see this changed.

  10. We raise an invoice to a client.
    They pay it.
    Then for some reason, something changes.
    We need to raise a credit note against that invoice!

    I know I can create a new one from scratch but I want the history with this particular invoice and all the other details that I have already typed into it.

    What I DON'T want - is to delete the payment, create the credit note, delete the allocation of the credit to the invoice, then reapply the original payment.

    It is not an option within Xero to 'copy to draft' and create a negative…

    Hi team, thank you for the detail in the flows you have when trading that create the need in being able to create a credit note from a paid invoice in Xero.

    While this isn't a feature we have planned for development, it'll be good to keep tracking the interest from our community. We will share if there are any updates.

  11. I would like the ability to edit inventory item costs directly from the quote page, similar to the option available on the invoice page. I don't mean the price on the quote itself, I mean the cost in the inventory. This would save me a lot of time.

    Thanks for sharing, Glen. We'll begin getting a sense of the interest in this from others in community here.

    Make sure to share this with any other colleagues that'd find it beneficial too so they can upvote your idea.

  12. The Problem:
    When a customer pays more than the invoice total due to tips or card surcharges, Xero’s Add Payment screen forces any amount over the invoice total to be treated as an overpayment/credit, not as intentional extra income. This prevents me from allocating the excess directly to specific income accounts (e.g., Qualified Tips or Card Processing Fee Income) at the time of payment. As a result, I have to use multi‑step workarounds (separate Receive Money and Spend Money entries, later adjustments once bank feeds arrive) just to reflect a single real‑world payment event: invoice amount + tip/surcharge − merchant…

  13. 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…

  14. Add a quick button to go back to invoices especially after posting a payment or while reconciling. Invoices are the thing I use most and reference most but I have to go through like three steps to get back to where i was.

  15. 1st) I suggest on embedding the Validated QR code to the normal PDF invoice so that we can print multiple invoices at one go and our normal PDF invoice also consists of banking details and credit terms whereas the Validated E-Invoicing has none of these.

    2nd) I suggest on putting "Send to MyInvois" button instead of copy and paste the e-mail MyInvois@invoi.ci for every invoice. This is too troublesome.

    3rd) Regarding the Invoice interface on the Sent Column, perhaps can Xero make it into two instead? One is for the Validated E-Invoicing & the other one is for customer. The…

    Hi Maggie and others in community who've voted, we appreciate hearing the changes that'd help you when sending eInvoices with Xero.

    Just to note, as each point you've raised would be considered separately by our product teams it's best to have an idea for each of these that we can get a feel of the community support through - see more on the qualities of a good idea in our Xero Central article 🙂

    I've updated your idea here to represent the first point for embedding the QR code on the PDF of the invoice. You'll see I've created ideas for the other points you've noted below.

    If there's any progress for these we'll share on the respective idea/s. Thanks!

  16. Quote Acceptance/Decline/Contact Merchant Buttons on quotes - select Reply To email.

    Please please please let us choose the "reply to" email address in settings for when a customer presses "Accept, Deline or Contact Merchant" button on emailed quotes!

    At the moment the reply goes to the staff members personal log in email which is super inappropriate and means the company misses these emails, especially if that staff member has left the company or the bookkeeper etc finalises the quote. The staff should never receive those emails in their personal email unless we select it in the settings. Give us the…

  17. Xero really needs the ability to select all, or at least select multiple lines at once. In a group monthly invoice, it can take over an hour to delete or edit lines individually.
    It would also be a major improvement to allow grouping of identical line items—so that all quantities for the same item appear under a single line, instead of generating hundreds of separate lines for the same thing

  18. Email is now so over used, that generating sales invoices and sending via email is so ineffective. Can we have a way to send them at point of creation via whatsapp. I am having to follow up our invoices by whatsapp, as so few are actually seen by clients amongst the ton of junk email everyone now gets. It is so labour intensive. (Generating SMS would be useful too)
    THIS IS ULTRA URGENT

  19. Not a massive one, but would eliminate a really annoying thing.
    On an invoice screen in the reference box, when typing any data that exceeds the box, the text doesn't follow outside that window. This then makes you mouse click into that box and arrow across to confirm what you have typed was in actual fact correct.
    PLEASE, can something be done about this????

    We'll get a sense of the community interesst in this here. While we don't have any plans around this at present I'll share if there's any news.

  20. Add terms and conditions to the bottom of all invoices on the "New Invoice Theme'
    Our T&Cs for engagement are over two pages long; having it as a secondary document or at the end of the invoice would be great.
