e-Invoicing - Verifactu support for compliance with Spanish tax agency
Verifactu is a mandatory invoice verification system in Spain, introduced by the Anti-Fraud Law, which seeks to increase transparency and tax control by automatically sending invoicing records to the Tax Agency (AEAT) in real time to prevent fraud. Supported invoicing programs must ensure the integrity, traceability and preservation of invoices, and include a QR code and the mention "Veri*Factu" in the document. Implementation is progressing, with the use of adapted software mandatory for taxpayers from July 2026.

E-invoicing - United Arab Emirates
E-Invoicing in the UAE.
This will soon be a requirement in the UAE with legislation to be passed on this.
Please can we as Xero users have a standard process template for this.30 votesHi Faadhilah, thanks for raising the idea about introducing e-invoicing specifically for the UAE. With the government’s timelines and deadlines coming up, we understand how important it is for businesses there to have a streamlined way to comply.
Xero already supports e-invoicing in other regions where this has become a regulatory requirement. While we can’t share any definite plans about when or if this will be available in the UAE just yet, your idea status is currently Gaining support. This status means the community team has reviewed it, and now it’s open for votes and comments from users like you.
Getting more votes and detailed feedback from the community helps bring attention to the demand and shows the product team where to focus next. If you haven’t already, adding more context about how e-invoicing would affect your business day to day would be really valuable. The more insights the team…

Prepayments & Accrual Schedules
Instead of using spreadsheets, it would be very handy for Xero to have prepayment & accruals schedules built-in that act similar to the Fixed Asset function.
For example, when you allocated a new invoice to the prepayment nominal, Xero would detect that transaction and add it to the schedule. At the end of the month, you access the Prepayment & Accruals screen, go to drafts, and fill out a form giving it the period with su[plier, start date, end date and number of days/weeks/months it lasts (this would determine how often a journal is created when ran). Once done, you…
211 votesHi everyone, thanks for sharing your feedback on prepayment and accrual schedules. We appreciate you explaining how important this is for your month-end processes and workflow efficiency.
I’d like you to know your idea's been carefully reviewed by our product team. They appreciate and understand the need for tracking revenue and expenditure related to prepayments and accruals, however at this time with other initiatives in the roadmap such as improving the bill creation and payment processes there are currently no plans for this in the pipeline.
We’re keeping a close account of the support in this here, and will continue to review this opportunity within future planning. If there’s any progress made I’ll be sure to share with you all, here.

Invoicing - Customize PDF file name to include contact name
Update invoice file names to include both the invoice number and recipient name? For example: “SI-1055 John Smith” instead of just “SI-1055” — so it’s easier to identify when printing or saving documents.

Invoices - Customisable SMS templates

Quotes - Remove Deleted Quotes from the All list
Quotes that have been Deleted are marked as Deleted but continue to be displayed in the Sales Overviews. There is no need to continue to display deleted items in the Overviews. They should be removed.
22 votesHi team, in the aim of transparency we have split this idea out from the original one here so we can get a better understanding of the interest for this change in each area of Xero.
Being quite different features within Xero it's not likely that a change in one would be reflected in the other area at the same time. We will continue to track interest in removing quotes from the all list here and share if there are any updates.

Invoicing - Show the credit note numbers that are applied on invoice PDF
Display the Credit Note/s applied to an invoice and payments made by date on a PDF document. Why is it that we can view these in the system but we cannot see this when printing invoices.
It would be so helpful to have this for clients to view exactly what they have paid and exactly what credit notes have been applied to an invoice.If it is already on the systems for us to see, is it that hard to reflect this on the printed /emailed versions of invoices?
please address this Xero!

New Invoicing - Keep Classic Invoicing
KEEP THE CLASSIC FORMAT FOR INVOICING
490 votesHi everyone, appreciate your continued feedback on new invoicing. As mentioned in my last update we've now added a new Xero Central page for new invoicing.
Along with updates to individual ideas on Xero Product Ideas, this page will become the single source of truth for key feature rollouts including:
- what’s available in new invoicing right now,
- timelines for features and enhancements going live in new invoicing, as well as
- a comparison table between the classic and newer versions of invoicing.
We'll be updating this page regularly.
Relating to some of the more recent feedback there are some existing ideas that may also be of particular interest that you can join, like the ability to see the email the invoice was sent to in the history, or being able to see a timestamp, and reducing clicks and steps.

Invoicing - Add Number of Days Overdue to Send Statements screen
On the "Send Statements" page...
The address is not needed as the customer can be identified by their name or account number, and 99.9% of statements are now emailed anyway. Removing this would allow space for the two pieces of information that are necessary when individually chasing overdue payaments, plus one extra useful number... The date of the invoice, the date payment was/is due, and the number of days overdue.
This could then be easily referenced when personalising the pop-up email box .... e.g. Your payment was due 30/11 and is now 35 days overdue. Please make the payment as…
10 votesHi Roger, thanks for the feedback on this idea. it’s clear that seeing the number of days overdue directly on the Send Statements screen would make it easier to prioritise follow-ups without interrupting your workflow.
At the moment, the Date and Due Date of each outstanding invoice are already displayed on the Send Statement screen, but having the actual days overdue visible would give immediate context and help you act faster when sending statements.
We have now move this idea to Gaining Support, which means it’s open for votes and comments. Hearing from the community will help our product teams understand how much value this visibility would add across different workflows.

Invoicing - Calendar run from Monday - Sunday (UK)
ISO 8601, the international standard for date and time formatting (adopted in the UK), defines Monday as the first day of the week. In invoicing Sunday seems to have been adopted recently and I can see from another thread this was deliberate, but this is NOT UK standard and our calendars adopt a Monday start so will confuse all UK users. Maybe adopt a setting where the user can define the setting instead of trying to suit the whole world...
16 votesThanks for your feedback, Sally. We appreciate there may be different preference for this.
You're right this was a brief change that was made in invoicing however in consistency with how calendars appear in other areas of Xero this has been changed back and we also received feedback for calendars to run Sunday - Saturday.
While we will track the interest from others in this here we want to be upfront that we don't have any further plans for changing start dates of this calendar.

Like in xero mobile app in Invoice we Have option to share Invoice via other apps by getting its Link (Even we can send that link to clients with SMS)

Invoicing - Paste Multiple Cells into Invoice Lines
Why can’t Xero do basic spreadsheet-style paste???
This is honestly ridiculous: in 2026, Xero still can’t handle basic multi-cell paste like every normal grid on the web.
Everyone uses Excel, Google Sheets, Airtable. We copy blocks of rows and columns all day. In Xero, the same paste either dumps into one field or doesn’t work, so we’re forced into CSV import or manual entry. That is a massive waste of time for something that should be a baseline feature.
There is no technical excuse here. Airtable/Sheets don’t do anything magical. In a browser, multi-cell paste is just:
Clipboard text in…
6 votesHi Nic, thanks for sharing this idea. We can see how helpful it would be to paste invoice details straight from a spreadsheet. It'd make the process faster and easier, especially for longer invoices.
For now, one option is to use the Import feature. By pasting your spreadsheet data into Xero’s CSV template and uploading it, you can create invoices in bulk. It’s not quite direct copy-paste, but it’s a quicker way to handle larger invoices.
We’ve moved this idea to Gaining Support to understand how many of you would find this useful. If you can, let us know what tool you’re copying from and which columns you’d most want to include, your feedback will help guide what we look at next.

Invoicing Template ability to remove web links
We’re happy with the new edit template invoicing experience, but would like full control over what appears on PDF invoices, specifically the ability to remove the “View Online” button.
Many invoices are printed or saved for offline use, where web links don’t make sense and can look unprofessional. For some businesses and customers, digital links on formal invoice documents are unnecessary or confusing.
Suggested solution:
Add a simple setting or template option to enable/disable the “View Online” button on PDF invoices, so businesses can choose what works best for them.Since it is our business, we need to have more…

New Invoicing - Option to switch Autosave off
I don't want autosave on for invoicing - I use third party software to copy invoice details to a Trello Card, this is triggered when the invoice is saved.
Auto saving will send the invoice info through to Trello before the invoice is complete, meaning not all the info will be sent to Trello.
Are we able to turn off the auto save function in new invoicing?465 votesHi community, as mentioned in my last post we want to keep you looped in on changes around autosave.
Our product team has continued to focus attention on how we can make invoicing faster and more responsive to improve our customers' experience.
We've now optimised autosave to require less processing power, leading to faster invoice loading and saving.
While we don't have any plans to remove autosave, there is the possibility that we would make updates to improve experiences related to autosave in the future - I've provided links below to ideas that have been raised and remain open for consideration;
- Invoicing - Undo/revert to previous version of an invoice
- Exclude Auto Save from History and Notes
- Invoices - Add invoice number when invoice is Approved
Thanks again for all your feedback and sharing with us in the forums here.

Short Term Cashflow - Combine existing invoices with predictions for future invoices
When viewing the 90-day short-term cash flow projection, payments from our on-site shop show 90 days of predicted income. However, for customers with existing invoices in the system, only those invoices are displayed.
The issue arises when customers have only 30 or 60 days of invoices, causing a drop-off in the cash projection after 60 days.
Proposed Solution:
- Combine existing invoices in Xero with predictions for future invoices.
- Automatically remove these predictions when an actual invoice is entered into the system.

Invoicing - Allow Item and Description-only lines, with no Qty or Unit Price
When choosing item code and description, I want the ability to leave the rest of the fields blank. Classic invoicing had no problems with it. The new invoicing wants to populate QTY, UNIT PRICE and AMOUNT. Makes the invoice look unappealing.

552 votesHi community, we appreciate the continued traction this idea's received, and do want to provide clarity and set expectation.
Your feedback has been valuable in understanding the needs of using description only lines to; add subheadings, provide context for grouped charges, and ensure your invoices are easy for your clients to read and understand.
To reconfirm, atm - You can add one-off description only lines as you enter an invoice. However, if you add detail to any other field the line will be treated as a 'financial' line and you'll need to include Qty, Unit price, Account and Tax rate.
- We know some users have set up and saved inventory items for description only lines they commonly use, however as the item code field is used for inventory items the line of the invoice is treated as 'financial' meaning you'll then need to include Qty, Unit price, Account and Tax…

Search bar - Instant Search Focus for Faster Pasting / Typing
For years, Xero’s search bar worked in a way that allowed power users to click the search icon and immediately start typing or pasting. The input would automatically receive keyboard focus, so workflows that rely on quick data entry were seamless and efficient.
How it used to work:
Click the search icon (or press the search keyboard shortcut).
The search input was immediately focused.
Users could paste or type text instantly with no delay.
How it works now:
Clicking the search icon no longer guarantees immediate keyboard focus.
If you paste or type text too quickly after clicking, the paste…

Raising a Quote which can then be converted to a Project once quote is accepted.
The quoting process is more user friendly than the project function, if you could raise the quote from the 'Quote' page with all the details needed and then open a project from that, with all the detail, to begin the project stage, while projects are brilliant it is long winded if need to add a lot of detail, to then quote, then invoice.
If the project process could begin at the quote level, there would only be 1 level to dismiss should the quote be declined. Quotes are always the bottom level.
