  1. It would be incredibly helpful if Xero could automatically save Quotes while they are being edited (for example, every 1 minute or after a period of inactivity).

    Currently, if a user is working on a quote and experiences a power outage, internet interruption, browser crash, or accidentally closes the window before manually clicking Save, all work completed since the last save is lost. This can be extremely frustrating and time-consuming, particularly for more detailed quotes.

    If this functionality does not already exist, an auto-save feature that periodically saves a draft in the background would greatly improve the user experience.

  2. In the Xero Contact details page, it would be really useful if the GoCardless invite link was shown, at the moment we have to log into GoCardless separately and find the link to invite new customers. it would save time logging into separate sites.

  3. There should be an option to automatically email customers a paid tax invoice or receipt whenever an invoice is marked as PAID.

    Our business integrates with several sales platforms, where both invoice creation and payment allocation are fully automated. We process many thousands of invoices each month, so manually opening invoices or batch-sending receipts is simply not practical.

    I appreciate that not every business would want this functionality, but there should at least be an option within Xero's settings to enable or disable automatic sending of paid invoices or receipts.

    This would be a valuable time-saving feature for businesses with…

  4. It would be great to be able to select certain contacts for certain invoices.

    We have different contacts within the one client, and they might book us for different jobs. For instance, John from Company X will book us for services and Sam from Company X will also book us for services on a different job. We need to invoice them separately, but they are from the same company.

    Currently, we have them all down as contacts for Company X and so every invoice emails them all. Even if you edit the recipients for sending the initial invoice, there's no…

  5. I want to recommend that the View Bill screen always includes Where Paid From regardless of how one gets to the screen. The "Where Paid From" information is lost if one gets to View Bill froma report. I also want to recommend a report of where Payments Originate From is cited. AT present, if one hits the wrong Pay From account, the existing reports make it hard to find the error.

  6. Xero currently allows one primary customer/contact on an invoice, but many maintenance businesses work with multiple parties on the same job.

    A common example is a rental property maintenance workflow:

    Bill To: Rental agency / property management company
    Property Owner: Landlord / client
    Tenant: Occupant of the property
    Service Address: The physical address where the work was completed
    Rep / Technician: The staff member or contractor who attended the job

    At the moment, users often have to manually type these details into the invoice description or create custom workarounds, which makes invoices inconsistent and difficult to manage.

  7. Xero’s current invoice customisation options are still very limited, especially for businesses that require highly customised invoice layouts.

    The DOCX custom design templates are not very user-friendly and often require advanced Microsoft Word formatting knowledge. Small layout changes can easily affect the entire template, making ongoing maintenance difficult for accounting firms and business owners.

    Although the newer invoice branding and template editor has improved the overall appearance of invoices, it still does not provide enough flexibility to create invoices that truly match a business’s existing branding and operational requirements.

    This is particularly important when onboarding clients to Xero. Many of…

  8. Currently, when downloading invoices, quotes, statements, or other documents from Xero, the files are automatically saved to the browser’s default Downloads folder.

    It would be very helpful to have an option in Xero to select a specific save location or default folder for downloaded documents. This could include different folders for invoices, quotes, statements, and purchase orders, or the ability to save directly to a client folder in OneDrive, SharePoint, or Google Drive.

    This feature would reduce manual filing, improve document organisation, and save significant time for businesses and accounting firms that process a high volume of Xero documents daily.

  9. I'm confused why these points aren't already available.

    -enable unit total on invoices. I have no idea why this field is not available for invoices. After searching for a solution, I can see people have been asking this for years.

    • Enable arrow key to go next row. When scanning large orders, having to switch between peripherals is slow. scanning product, tabbing to change quantity, and then mousing to next row.

    • Fix scanning issue. Due to browser delay, scanning a barcode with a scanner that has return key enabled (most do by default) opens "create new item" screen. Fixing this would…

  10. When our invoices sync across from KEY IMPORTANT required data that is included on our clinic Practice Management software - Halaxy Invoice is omitted in Xero. This data is a requirement of most funders eg., My Aged Care required the Date of Service, along with NDIS, who require NDIS Number and date of Service. If this information was included then the invoice can be emailed from Xero and also stripe fees collected in Xero. With current set-up invoices need to be emailed from Halaxy which is not the preferred option.

  11. For a lot of businesses, sending invoice copies or reminders by email is the main way of communicating, not printing PDF or sending an SMS (not relevant sending to a business client).
    Currently it's a 2 click process to get to the email screen which is time consuming when sending numerous invoices so if a Send SMS button can be added, why not an email button.
    Print PDF could be moved to the 3dot options list.

  12. Show optional CC processing fee in the quote if customer chooses to pay that way. I am currently having to create a new line item and manually calculate CC fees. Would save alot of time if the quote total showed the stripe fee automatically.

  13. Recently discovered a large company we have a significant amount of business with have automated their accounting. The documents being sent from Xero are being rejected by their system as the ISO 19005 accepted format is PDF/A.

    Xero must quickly look into this and adjust accordingly, as if we have to manually change the format of all our documents, Xero has lost a significant amount of its use.

    We have been out of pocket and had to spend a considerable amount of time trying to battle to get payment as they had not received nearly a months worth of invoices.

  14. I would really like to see a placeholder in the invoice email template that allows me to show the description of the first item of the invoice in the email itself. To make it simpler for one of my clients, I use the first line of the invoice itself to refer to their job number and description, and I would like to be able to include this automatically in every invoice that I send to them. I can't use the reference field as that is already used for their order number.

  16. Hi Xero Team,

    Many of our service-based clients would benefit from a “Create Job Card” option directly from a Xero invoice.

    The job card should pull through:

    Customer name
    Address
    Contact details
    Invoice reference
    Item descriptions
    Quantities
    Notes

    But it should hide all pricing information, including:

    Unit prices
    Discounts
    VAT amounts
    Invoice totals

    This would allow employees and technicians to receive a work order/job card without seeing customer pricing, and would eliminate the need to manually recreate job cards in Word or Excel.

    Thank you for considering this feature.

  19. In Sage 50 Accounts Professional, we use the built-in PI Chase Letter functionality as an important part of our credit control process.

    When an invoice reaches 30 days overdue, we print and post a PI Chase Letter 1. If we receive no response, we then print and post a PI Chase Letter 2. These letters are generated automatically using predefined templates, which we print on our company letterhead and send by post.

    A key feature is that the letter includes an itemised summary of the customer's outstanding balance, showing:

    Invoice number
    Invoice date
    Details/description
    Amount outstanding
    Total balance due
