    Thanks for sharing your idea, Davinder, and letting us know the changes that matter most to you. It’s great to see customers like you helping shape the future of Xero.

    We have reviewed your idea, and it is now available for the community to support. Make sure to share it with colleagues who could also benefit from this feature so they can add their vote. Other members are welcome to comment and provide additional context on how this improvement could enhance their experience with Xero.

  2. I agree with the many posts that the new invoice layout with glaring invoice amount and due date is tacky and unprofessional. We are a medical practice and this is not in keeping with our aesthetic or that of any traditional style business. Modern is fine, but this is tacky. I have had to develop a new invoice version using the docx option though this is not ideal. Would request a change or option of a contemporary corporate invoice without the oversized bold elements.

  3. The ability to remove the delivery address on an invoice theme would be really helpful. Currently you have to untick a box on every invoice but this could be made a permanent feature on the branding theme invoice templates. A simple toggle to turn off and on would be really helpful. Saves having to remember on every invoice to untick the box.

  6. This would be useful for when you speak to a customer to request a payment date for overdue invoices, you could make a note of what they've said. At the moment there is only an option to select a date for when payment may happen.

    Thanks for raising this, Rhianydd. A Notes column on the Invoices Awaiting Payment screen could make it easier to keep payment follow-up details visible while working through outstanding invoices.

    I’ve updated the status to Gaining Support so we can continue tracking interest. How would you like notes to work in this view, and what information would you want to capture?

  7. I, as admin, can draft invoices and assign them to an employee.
    Each employee can edit / amend their own invoices and submit.
    I can then approve and send invoices out.
    They can only view and edit their own invoices, not all invoices in the company.

    The process of me drafting all invoices on Xero (as is my role), saving to PDF, converting to word, saving in their file, for them to edit and return, for me to then edit on Xero before approving and sending seems crazily long-winded.

  8. When allocating a credit note, either an invoice or bill, be able to set a date for the application, rather than defaulting to the date the credit note was created as it will fail occasionally when using lock dates.

    Thank you for sharing your suggestion for setting a specific allocation date for credit notes against invoices or bills. This would provide a smooth solution for linking invoices and credit notes across different financial years after lock dates have been set.

  9. I have been a Xero customer for over 10 years and have referred dozens of businesses to the platform during that time. The primary reason we originally switched to Xero was its simplicity and clean interface. Unfortunately, the recent changes to the Bills section have completely undermined that simplicity.

    The new split-screen layout with the bill list on the left side of the screen is unnecessary and extremely distracting. When I open a bill, I need to focus on that bill only. There is no logical reason to display a list of other bills while I am working inside a…

    Hi team, there are two parts to unpack here:

    1. the new bills split screen, and
    2. the bill payments flow.

    We’ve introduced a new bills quick view that lets users easily enter, scan, review, and take action on bills without leaving the list view. For some users, this completely replaces the older bills UI. The product team is monitoring this closely and may make quick view optional, so users can choose between quick view and opening the full bill. I’ll keep you updated here.

    We’re continuing to support online bill payments and are encouraging setup because it can improve efficiency and simplify payments. There are no plans to remove online bills from the payments flow.

    For users who prefer manual payments, they can still use the Record a payment tab or select a bill in the list and click Make payment above the list.

  10. It would be useful to have a button to apply a discount to all lines in a quote/invoice at once, instead of having to edit them one at a time. Alternately, a global discount line at the end which applies a discount to the whole quote/invoice.

  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. Currently, when you toggle on ABN in the new invoice template, it removes all the spaces which is the incorrect formatting for an ABN. The only work around is to manually type in the ABN with the correct spacing in the ADDITIONAL BUSINESS INFO box.

    The screenshot shows a manually added ABN at the top and the default Xero layout at the bottom.

    It should be noted that in organisation settings, the ABN spacing is correctly displayed.

    Please pull this through into the actual new invoice layout as well please.

    Appreciate your feedback here, TJ. Our product team are paying close attention to feedback we're receiving on this new invoice template experience.

    While we don't have direct plans for changing he ABN format at present, we'll keep an eye on the support for this, and share if there are any updates.

  13. We have a customer that is billed for direct expenses incurred for travel to their site.

    We code the sale to offset the expense, but the tax code doesn't use the default as set against the customer (zero rated income), instead, because we have selected an expense account, it uses the expense account tax rate (zero rated expense, or 20% VAT on expense).

    Left as it is, it is in the wrong box on the VAT return (our external accountants have picked this up recently).

    The only way to correct this at the moment is by using 'find and recode'…

    Hi everyone, thanks for taking the time to share this.

    We understand you’re looking for customer tax settings to take priority over account defaults when creating invoice lines, so tax treatment is applied more consistently.

    Having the right tax option as a default could help reduce manual checks and make invoicing easier when managing customers with different tax requirements.

    We’ll continue to track feedback and interest from the community for this idea.


  14. 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.

  15. On the new invoice layout the customer account number should be clearly named and not just a number underneath their address. It could be anything.

  16. It would be great to be able to "clone" invoices based on the invoice templates. Use case: I may need Strip payment details for some customers but not for others, but the layout should match exactly without having to remove and add every time depending on customer, but driven mainly from the template.

    Thanks for feeding back here, Juan. Appreciate where you're wanting to set up similar themes with slight differences this could be useful.

    We'll start to gain a sense of interest in this capability through your idea here and I'll share if there are any updates.

  17. As small market gardeners we currently utilize the invoice and packing slip within Xero which works and works for us well. My suggestion idea is to take the packing slips which identify how many of what items required and collate those into a printable or electronic report (picking slip) which provides a total no. of each of the items within the packing slips over a specified date range. look forward to feedback

    Thanks so much for sharing this idea 😊

    We can see how useful it would be to have packing slips collated into a printable or electronic picking slip that totals the quantities needed for each item across a selected date range.

    We’re going to move this idea to Gaining Support so we can continue to track interest and feedback from other customers who’d also like to see this in Xero.

    Please feel free to share this idea with friends or colleagues and encourage them to vote or add a comment too, as that helps us understand whether this is something more people would like to see in Xero.

  18. Is anyone else having issues with previewing an invoice?

    After generating an invoice, I always preview it and then copy the customer name and then download a pdf to save on my shared drive. Now the Preview is showing all distorted and Xero will not allow me to copy. Some times when clicking on preview. it works and and some times it doesn't. Doesn't matter what browser I am Using it happens. I have even used another laptop and it is happening. Even changed the invoice template to older one and still happens. This is doing my head in.

    Hi Mark, thanks for all the detail you've shared with our Xero Support team surrounding the invoice preview and drag & drop within invoices.

    I see you've already voted for the idea around drag & drop within invoicing and if there are any updates for this we'll share with you there.

    I'll also re-open your idea here so we can get a better sense of the wider interest in being able to copy & paste contents from the invoice preview. We'll make sure to let you know here if there's any progress.

  19. This is based on an actual example.

    I had an invoice for around $15000 which consisted of around 10 line items. It appears Xero calculates GST per line item which is rounded (which is fine) and then for the total at the bottom appears to add up the rounded line items. What this meant in my case was that the GST total was 1 cent out where on my invoice it showed $2037.59 and on the purchase order I had it was $2037.58. The latter was the correct amount. What this meant was that this was enough for a big…

  20. I would like the ability to restore voided / deleted invoices and bills. Sometimes an item is deleted by accident but to restore it I have to copy it to a new draft and then re-attach any PDFs, which is clumsy and time consuming.
