Sales Invoices - Field for Customer's Purchase Order Number
Adding customer’s purchase order number in the sales invoices.
Purpose: because some companies will not pay an Invoice without a PO, so it’ll make users’ workflow easier when they can search #PO to find the right invoice.
218 votesThanks everyone for continuing to support this idea. We appreciate it's been a while since our last post and want to update you here.
We understand how having a dedicated field for a customer purchase order number on sales invoices is important for many of you, whether that’s to meet customer payment requirements, support bulk invoicing, or keep your own internal reference separate.
While we can’t make any commitments at this stage, this is an area our product teams are interested in exploring. We'll make sure to share any progress toward providing a field to accommodate a purchase order number.

Sales: Invoicing - Include QR code for quick entry
Add custom QR code to invoices sent from Xero
Purpose: Ease of entry - to scan and upload to your Xero org for auto creation of bills.
32 votesHi everyone, we appreciate the interest for being able to add QR codes to invoices.
While this is something we started looking into this is not something we're developing.
To set the right expectation I'll shift this status to submitted and we can continue to track the interest here.

Quotes - Convert to a deposit invoice and remaining amount invoice
Ability to convert quotes into invoice & the remaining amount of invoices.
Purpose: Because it helps users invoicing workflow as they often have to keep a separate record of deposits sent / paid and manually calculate the remaining amount to invoice on completion of a project
62 votesHi community, we appreciate the support in this idea and apologise for not engaging here sooner. Thanks for sharing how important this workflow is for your business.
Our current deposits release is focused on approved invoices, where a business can request an upfront deposit and then collect the remaining balance later on that invoice.
However, we know for some businesses this needs to begin earlier from the quote stage. While we consider how we might expand deposits in the longer term we want to be upfront that converting a quote to a deposit and remaining amount invoice isn’t in the roadmap as yet.
We’ll keep this idea updated as there’s more to share on the future of deposits with Xero.

Quotes - Ability to consolidate or merge
Ability to consolidate or merge multiple quotes into another quote.
Purpose: To make clients easily sign through of a single quote, as this usually happens in large projects.
13 votesHi team, we appreciate support for being able to combine or merge multiple existing quotes.
To update here, this isn't something we have any plans around at this time, and not getting a lot of traction overtime we will soon remove this from the forums.
The best option right now would be to open the largest quote and add lines from the others to this and then delete the others. Thanks

Invoices: Repeating Invoices - Bulk Import/Export
Ability to import/export invoices in bulk.
Purpose: It’ll save users time rather than having to create each one individually.
293 votesHi community, we appreciate your feedback here. We understand how valuable bulk actions would be for updating and processing repeating invoices, especially when you're managing changes at scale.
While this work isn’t currently roadmapped, we recognise this as a gap and it’s on our team’s radar as we look at the future of repeating invoices. If there’s any news or progress to share, we’ll be sure to update this idea.

Settings - Unique Reference Number for Transactions
Ability to add unique reference numbers to transactions so that user can search by the Xero reference number.
Purpose: Will be helpful in identifying which transaction belongs to the paper copy of the invoice in a client's records
28 votesHi everyone, coming back across this idea we do want to confirm at present for Sales you have Invoice numbers that do need to be unique in Xero. You could ask you customer to reference this as a look up. If you'd like to change this, you can set the Prefix and starting number from within your invoice settings and you'll find you also have options to set this for Quotes and Purchase Orders - More on this here
The 'Reference' field of a transaction is slightly different and does not need to be unique, many businesses use this in slightly different ways and I want to be open that we don't have plans for changing this behaviour anytime soon.
Appreciate there are some that would like to see a numbering sequence for bills and I'd recommend adding support to this idea where this is represented.
Alternatively, in terms…

Sales Invoices- Flag as 'in dispute / query'
Ability to flag an invoice or bill when it’s in dispute or query.
Purpose: To ensure users do not pay an invoice/bill when it is currently 'under query/dispute' in error.
537 votesHi community, we thank you for your feedback on the value of being able to flag a Sales invoice as in dispute. We know a clear way to mark these invoices would be helpful.
Similarly to our update for Supplier invoices there are a few options you may want to consider to currently highlight Sales invoices in this situation;
- Add a note to the invoice to serve as a clear internal reminder of the dispute.
- Utilise tracking categories: Creating a specific tracking category like "Disputed Invoices" can help you filter and report on these items.
- Update the reference to add a notation such as [reference number] - 'In dispute'
While we know these aren't perfect solutions, we hope these may help some in the conversation right now.
We appreciate your enthusiasm for this feature, and we want to be transparent about where it stands, and this is an idea that…

Xero Mail - Send as @company-name.com not message-service@post.xero.com
Ability to make an email sent from Xero appear as @company-name.com instead of message-service@post.xero.com, when users send an email to their client/customer.
Purpose: To provide more validity when sending communications from Xero out to clients/customers and avoid items ending up in Spam/Junk mail.
471 votesHi team, we appreciate the on-going support and feedback we're receiving on this idea and pleased to be able to share this update. Our product team are actively exploring how we can best solve for the needs raised here, although at this time are unable to provide any set timeframes.
They are very much aware of the appetite from our community on this, and as part of their exploration have reached out some users here as they gather insights.
For the time being we'll shift to In discovery and I'll return as soon as there is more on this to share.

Notifications - Alert when an invoice has been paid
Ability to have an alert in Xero when an invoice has been paid.
Purpose: Users can easily be reminded. Which will make it easier for them to order the product/stock for their business when they know that they have been paid.
205 votesHi community, thank you for feeding back about how a paid-invoice notification could reduce manual checking and follow-ups, as well as help you move orders forward once payment is received.
Our teams have done some initial discovery and are looking more broadly at our notifications framework across Xero.
To be transparent here - a notification specifically for when an invoice is paid isn’t in our near term plans at this stage, but we’ll share an update if there’s meaningful progress as notifications continue to evolve.

Invoice: Invoice Templates - Custom Fonts for Standard Invoice Themes
Ability to add custom fonts for standard invoice themes.
Purpose: To have a better branding for users’ business.
66 votesHi team, you'll have seen that we have introduced a new Invoice template editor that will soon replace the Standard branding in organisations.
While fonts are limited at present, and we don't have intentions of developing the ability to support every font imaginable our product team are very interested to know if there are specific font's your business would typically use and like to see added.
Please do share in this thread and I'll keep you updated if further options are added to the new Invoice template editor.

Invoices - Multiple due dates for payments/deposits along with the ability to offer trade terms
Ability to set up multiple due dates for payments/deposits.
Purpose: payments and deposits can be spread throughout different dates.
203 votesHi everyone, thanks for continuing to share the details behind your workflows here. We wanted to return with a meaningful step forward for this idea. As some users may have seen, we’ve released the ability to request a Deposit in Xero!
Enveloped in this we recently made an improvement to this so businesses can now set a specific due date when creating a new deposit, and that due date is shown clearly on the deposit request your customer receives.
We appreciate this doesn’t yet deliver the fuller outcome many of you describe here, such as multiple due dates across a full invoice, broader instalment-style payment schedules, or trade-term arrangements on a single invoice. But it's progress in this space.
I’ll be back to confirm once Deposits is completely released to all markets and share how we plan to evolve this further.

Invoice - Prompt Payment / Settlement Discount
To apply a prompt payment discount/settlement discount to an Accounts Receivable invoice from the match items screen in the Bank Reconciliation.
Purpose: So users can offer early discounts to vendors/suppliers without needing to do manual credit notes or editing the invoices.
416 votesHi everyone, we thoroughly appreciate everyone’s interest and support for enabling the ability to apply a prompt payment discount to invoices.
We understand how a direct prompt payment discount feature would improve the efficiency and automate manual efforts currently involved for you all here, but would like to be transparent that this isn’t something we’ve been able to roadmap atm.
Right now, one way to indicate that your business accepts or will apply a discount for prompt payment would be to write this into the invoice payment terms. When acted on there are a few ways you could consider recording this in Xero, such as;
- Edit the invoice to apply a discount directly
- Edit the invoice to add a negative line that directly draws down the total amount of the invoice
- Apply a credit to the invoice for the portion of the discount
We'd recommend connecting with your Xero advisor…

Contacts - Custom fields on invoices and contacts
Ability to add a custom fields to a contact record that is able to be displayed on invoices
Purpose: Ability to include more information that’s unique to customers/business/industry that assist the transaction and relationship between customers
702 votesHi everyone, we’ve taken time to review the suggestion to include custom fields for both invoices and contacts, and recognise the value it'd bring in helping users capture more detailed information and avoid manual processes.
However, with other focuses drawing the teams attention such as multiple addresses this idea is not on our current development roadmap.
As we continue to plan future roadmaps, being highly supported this idea will continue to be considered, however we want to be open about it's current position with you all here. We appreciate you sharing your feedback and for your ongoing participation in the Xero community. Any changes to this status will be shared with everyone on this idea.
