Invoicing - Approve, Email and View Next
When invoicing, it would be useful to have an “Approve, Email, and View Next” button. This feature would streamline the process of reviewing and sending multiple invoices, especially when handling large batches.

Invoice Reminder - Templates to apply to specific customers
Invoice reminders are currently "all or nothing". I dont want to chase my good clients with automated messages from Xero becuse it upsets them but I do want some of my clients to have auto reminders about invoices about to become due and invoices overdue, those who generally are bad payers. In the same way we have email and invoice templates can we have invoice reminder templates and when we raise an invoice be prompted to apply a reminder template (or not). Or can the template for reminders be part of the customer financial details, in the way we can…

Permissions - Allow users with the 'invoice only' permission to print
The software shouldn't be restricting printing of a draft invoice at any stage of the process nor user settings.
Printing of draft invoice (even not finalized) is needed for documentation and accountability purposes!
Drafts only user cannot do this at the moment.Every company and with any software I have worked so far, printing is allowed and expected to be done, as a proof of work done, back up of what was submitted etc.
In our company we have more than one person workng on the same draft invoice.
How can I can prove that I have done my job…3 votesThanks for sharing your idea, and letting us know how allowing users with the invoice only user role to print could improve your workflow.

Bills & Invoices - Option to change calendar picker to start on Sunday
When recording a payment in "Bills" please set the calendar to run Sunday - Saturday.
2 votesHi Julianne, thanks for sharing this suggestion. We understand why having the option to start the calendar on a Sunday could make date entry feel more natural for some.
At the moment, the calendar picker follows a fixed layout and there isn’t a setting to change the start day. We appreciate that even small layout changes can make a difference when you’re entering lots of transactions and moving quickly through your workflow.
I’ve updated this post to Gaining Support so we can continue tracking feedback and gathering votes.

Reports - Add options to show both Gross and Net amount columns on the Account Transactions report
I'd like to see both the VAT inclusive and exclusive values listed in the transactions list shown in a clients account. Some clients discuss VAT exclusive figures and others inclusive, so it would be much easier to have the selection to show both values side by side, especially if you're looking for something by value.
2 votesHi Emma, appreciate you submitting this through. We understand that having both Gross and Net figure visible together could make reviewing transactions easier.
The good news is this is already available in the Account Transactions report. You can customise the report columns by opening the Columns dropdown and selecting the fields you need, including Gross, Net, and VAT. You can also save the layout as a custom report for future use. Alternatively, you can also run the Receivable Invoice Detail report.

Xero Billing Clients and counting towards partner program
Allow an option to have the client pay for their Xero subscription directly while maintaining the client as part of our rewards system.
Currently we have to collect sales tax for many clients in many areas of WA state. for billing them for Xero, and we have to keep up with changes in billing. We should have the option of the client paying the invoice directly and not lose our cut as a partner.

Repeating Manual Journals - Provide more frequency options
Once upon a time when we used TAS for our bookkeeping services, they had a very useful feature when processing recurring journals. We could choose separately months to correspond to the days clients being charged for. For example, we would pick January, March, May, July, August, October, December to process invoices for 31 days; February for 28 days; and April, June, September, November for 30 days. Once you have that set up initially, you don't have to think about adjusting recurring journals every month. At the moment, it takes me about half a day just to update over a hundred…
4 votesHi Anna, thanks for sharing your idea, and letting us know the changes that matter most for you. We understand that having more options in terms of how often the journal should be repeated would be helpful and prevent extra admin. We'll open this up for the community to share their thoughts and vote on it. In the meantime, we'll monitor this space for traction.

Sales Overview - Add Valuation document
It would be most helpful to have a valuation format ( which for my construction business sits between the ( Quotation & invoicing documents that Xero have delivered perfectly)
This would require a % of the line item “ as defined in the quotation document” this value / % would increase as the project progressed.
Is this something that could be accommodated?? For a 50 something builder with limited I.T experience Xero has proven to be user friendly and very efficient tool. Thank you!!! The perfect tool would include the above Valuation document.2 votesThanks for sharing your idea Brett, and letting us know the changes that matter most for you.

Invoicing - Add Title field for invoices that's visible on invoice list
It would be helpful to have a the title line show on the Invoice list as it does on the quotes screen. This is helpful for when you are trying to find an old invoice without having to click through each individual one.
Same would also be helpful on the bills page as it would make it much faster to find the correct bill especially when you have numerous ones from the same supplier like my company does.1 voteThanks for raising this suggestion. We understand the request to display a custom invoice title directly on the invoice list. Having more context available at a glance could make it easier to find the right invoice.
We've moved this idea to Gaining Support so we can continue gathering feedback. If this could improve your workflow, add your vote and share how you'd use the title field.

Invoice Attachments - Ability to add videos
Being able to add a video to the attachments on an invoice so when sending an invoice, you can send a 5-10 second video of a repair or service or what was fixed or item you are invoicing over. Photos are good, but sometimes video is better.
2 votesThanks so much for sharing this idea 🎥 — we can see how being able to attach a short video to an invoice could be really useful, especially when a quick clip can show a repair, service, or completed work more clearly than a photo.
We’re moving this idea to Gaining support so other customers can vote and comment on it too. This helps our product team gauge community interest and better understand how valuable this would be for businesses using Xero.
If this is something you’d like to see, we’d encourage you to add any extra detail about how you’d use it, as that can be really helpful context for the team reviewing the idea.

Invoice template - Tax ID displayed under own Company details
The rational of display Tax ID Display Name under the client contact doesn't sounds right as this is the column where we should key in our own company information.
When we using the standard template of Xero for AR Invoice, if there is tax id keyed under client's name, the field of "Tax ID Display Name" will be display under the client name. this sounds weird when I was told to amend the "Tax ID Display Name" which can be found under Financial Setting to something called "TIN Number" or "Tax ID Number" to make the display right.
2 votesThanks for sharing this idea 🙂 We’ve moved it to Gaining Support so we can continue to track interest from others who’d like to see this improved.
In the meantime, there is a workaround available using an advanced invoice template (custom DOCX template). This gives you more control over the invoice format, so you can customise how the invoice displays outside of the standard template.
You can find more on setting this up here: Create an advanced invoice template

Invoices - Add custom fields to display the billing term or service duration
The ability to add custom fields to invoices based on the industry would be a fantastic feature. I have a SaaS client who bills annually that has customers reaching out about adding the invoicing term(number of months) to their invoices. Seems like there have been other ideas submitted based on specific industry requirements.
3 votesWe appreciate the suggestion, Deanne. We understand how being able to add custom field for billing terms to invoices could help provide clearer information to customers and reduce the need for manual descriptions.
Having dedicated fields for service start and end dates could also support businesses managing ongoing contracts, retainers, or deferred revenue workflows.
We’ll continue tracking the feedback and interest shared here.

Credit notes - Preview before saving as Draft.
We would like the ability to preview the Credit Note BEFORE saving it as a Draft.
Currently, the only option to preview a Credit Note is to save it as a Draft and then use the "Print PDF" option to open a preview.
Instead, we would like an option where we're able to view a preview when creating the Credit Note.
Purpose: To be review the Credit Note for mistakes before officially saving it.
Thank you!

Stripe- Bulk Payment for Foreign Currency Invoices
Currently, the bulk payment option through online statements works effectively for invoices in the base currency. However, when dealing with foreign currency invoices, customers are required to pay each invoice individually. This creates additional friction and inefficiency in the payment process, particularly for businesses managing multi-currency transactions.
We would like to propose the development of a bulk payment feature that supports foreign currency invoices as well. This enhancement would streamline the payment process for international customers, reduce administrative overhead, and improve overall customer experience.
Thank you for considering this request. We look forward to hearing your thoughts and any potential…
1 voteThanks so much for sharing this idea. We can see how helpful it would be to let customers pay foreign currency invoices in bulk from statements, rather than needing to open and pay each invoice individually. For businesses working across multiple currencies, this would make the payment experience much smoother and save time.
We’ve reviewed your idea and are moving it to Gaining Support so we can continue to track interest and hear more from others who’d benefit from this.
If this would help your workflow, please add your vote and share any extra detail about how you use it — that context is really valuable for the team 💙

Xero Accounting App - ability to delete quotes
Make all features available on phone app that are available on pc / laptops.
There’s various basic functions that cannot be done on the Xero app designed for phones. Many small business users who are on the road for work want to action expenses and invoices as they go and have the same functionality on their phone as the laptop. Features are currently missing e.g:
- adding a discount to an invoice
- adding a category
- deleting a quote
And much more. It would be great to be able to do everything on your phone.8 votesHi Ashleigh👋 Thanks for sharing your ideas and letting us know what matters to you! We also see how deleting quotes would be handy, and your idea is now open to votes from the Community to gain more support.
For adding categories and discount you are able to add a discount. We recommend raising a case with our support team for further assistance with this :)

Invoicing - Display customer overdue balance and available credits on Awaiting Approval page
On the awaiting approval invoice page can we get more details for each customer, like any overdue amount and any credit they have in their account. Currently you cannot apply a credit unless you open the invoice. This will save time and errors.

Invoicing - Sent or Pending notice for clarity
When sending invoices from Xero if there is a delay in the sending of invoices instead of leaving them in the queue as unsent it would be better for them to be moved to a "outbox" or "pending send" so that you can continue to send invoices, or be aware they aren't going to be sent straight away.
This happened to me yesterday and I spent a lot of time logging a service request only to find out that Xero was on the go slow and the invoices were just queued to send later, and I had tried to resend…1 voteThanks for sharing this idea 🙂 — we can see how clearer visibility of invoice send status could be a positive improvement for customers using invoicing.
Being able to see when an invoice is pending send, rather than simply appearing unsent, could give people more confidence in the send process and make it easier to understand what’s happening at a glance.
We’re moving this idea to Gaining support so we can better understand how valuable this would be for others in the community and gather interest from customers who’d also find this helpful.

Sales overview - Disable going to an invoice when you click on a line
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
4 votesHi 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.

Invoice - Ability to print packing list while in Draft
Be able to print packing slips BEFORE approving the invoice. You are able to print "draft invoice" before approving so would be handy to be able to do packing slips too. We have to send customers PLs before they agree to taking the goods so we have to copy, paste, print & scan it to send to them.
3 votesAppreciate your feedback here, Lynsey. It'll be good to get a sense of other members that have a similar workflow from your idea here.
This isn't something we have p[lans for atm, but will keep an eye on the support in this here.
