Invoices: Customise items in 'Due date' dropdown list
Currently, when creating an invoice, the payment terms dropdown gives you the following options:
- Today
- 7 days
- 14 days
- EOM +1
- EOM +20
- end of next month
I would like to customise this list; the Australian government has recently brought in payment standards of 5 days if sent by e-invoice and 20 days if not, for all invoices sent to all non-corporate Commonwealth entities (including Defence) and neither of those are amongst the standard options. This means that I have to manually change the due date based on the contract for every invoice sent,…13 votes -
Sales Invoice - Include documents attached to an invoice when sending
Ability or setting to default include files attached to an invoice when sending from Xero
Purpose | Steps are currently involved to include files that are on an invoice when sending the invoice to a customer, an option like this would ease the process of including files that a customer needs to have access to and see when they received their invoice
545 votesThanks so much for sharing your feedback on this idea, community. We appreciate that having to manually select attachments on every invoice can feel a little fiddly. We get that you want a smoother workflow, that saves you time.
As noted by others in the idea, one option for now would be to add standard files, like your terms and conditions, directly to your invoice template. That way, they'll be included automatically when you send out your invoices.
To confirm how this functionality currently works - this is based on the user and driven by the last invoice that was sent. Where you have files attached, and you had selected to include files as an attachment when emailing the invoice, the next invoice you send with file attachments should have this selected by default.
A caveat to this is when you are working in incognito mode, or refresh your browser…

Quotes: Hide line item cost
When we create quotes we do not want the individual cost to be sent to the client as we may increase or decrease price depending on actual needs. Therefore I would like to send a quote with all the products/services itemized but not individual cost just a TOTAL?
35 votesHi team, thank you for sharing how this feature could improve your use of Quotes in Xero.
While it takes a little work in setup, you could currently use an advanced branding theme and make changes to the docx template to remove fields you don't want shown to the customer.
Being open this isn't something we have direct plans for developing right now, however we'll continue to track the appetite her and share if there are any updates.

Quotes - View Inventory Item Cost
See Inventory Item Cost when doing a Quote. I would find it helpful, when doing a quote to a customer, to see the cost of the inventory item I am quoting on. Of course, it should not appear in the final quote going to the client, but seeing it, would give me more confidence in doing my quote and make it a lot quicker. Thanks
20 votesHi Mark, as cost price of items can change over time, if you often associate specific items you're selling to sales you make to your customers perhaps Billable expenses?
When you add the expenses to your customers invoice this will bring across the cost price of the items you've assigned.

Batch Deposit - Include over/pre payment when creating batch
Batch Deposits: allow adding over-payments and pre-payments to a batch deposit from the Invoice > Awaiting Payments tab.
Currently a bank deposit that includes over-payments or pre-payments will not match recorded batch deposits because over-payments and pre-payments cannot be added to batch deposits. This causes a lot of wasted time communicating with client accounting staff to understand how to reconcile the variances.

Invoices - Add Line items to advanced templates
Include an option for adding line items in advanced templates
7 votesHi team, we want to be upfront here that we don't have any plans to further enhance advanced doc branded templates.
As you may have seen we have recently introduced a new Invoice layout editor that will soon replace the Standard branding in all regions.
Our intentions long term are to develop more functionality into this and expand to other document types to meet the needs of majority of our customers use cases.
That said, if you'd still like to be able to add lines within the standard branding it would be good to get more detail of your business use cases and needs in doing this. This will help others in community associate to your idea and our product teams assess and consider the wider needs as they continue to develop this new experience. Welcome to start a new idea that we can review.

Quotes - Ability to set default for Discount by % or amount
While it's nice to be able to enter a fixed value discount in our business we use % discounts only. We find the new quote discount field feature that requires a % for the discount or it defaults to $ amounts is causing us to make errors. This is especially confusing as it use to default to % and the invoice still does. I have a couple of suggested updates:
- Create a site wide setting to choose whether your default is $ or %.
- Include a dollar symbol when it is a fixed amount discount to highlight it's…33 votes -
Invoices: Option to only show item code in item column
Invoice setting: There should be the ability to remove the Item Name from the Item column when creating or editing invoices.
Currently it is not possible to show only the items code.10 votes -
Sales invoice - Separate status for when credit applied
In Xero a receivable invoice status is shown as paid whether it is actually paid or whether a credit note is applied to the invoice.
Can a new status be added to show when an invoice a credit note is applied, for example "Credited".
This will help identify actual payments received vs credit notes issued17 votes -
Invoices: Bulk add attachments to many invoices

Invoice Branding - Increase limit from 15 Custom DOCX themes
There is no reason to have a limit of 15 Custom DOCX Branding Themes (when those are needed to be used as RCTI). Organisations that issue RCTI do so for many clients so why limit it.
28 votesHi community we appreciate your feedback on the limitations of branding within Xero right now. While we are looking into improvements to branding and simplifying how customers customise their invoices, we don't have any plans at this stage to increase the # of branding templates that can be set up in the short term.
In consideration of those in the discussion who's workflow consists of creation of recipient created tax invoice, Xero does not currently have a feature to directly support these transaction types, however we have an idea specifically for this that you may be interested in adding your support to. This is not something we have plans for right now, but we are watching the feedback for this and will share if there's any updates, there.

Repeat Invoices - Ability to use Sales tax lookup(US)
There needs to be the option of including the sales tax lookup feature on repeating invoices. All of our subscription based monthly invoices are taxable in states where we have met the Nexus guidelines and therefore we will have to begin manually creating each invoice on a monthly basis which is extremely time consuming. It's hard to believe that this issue has not been raised before.

Statement - Include invoice description
Ability to have the invoice description on statements sent to customers.
70 votesThanks for your feedback on the thread. Though not useful for all, we did bring attention to the reports that could help some people in the forums here.
We'll continue to consider this and other ideas for customer statements as the platform evolves.
Again not a full resolve but another option that could be handy for some is the inclusion of the Outstanding bills link when sending individual invoices to your customers. Through this, persons of a contact will be able to view and get detail of the invoices they have outstanding with you at any given time.

Xero with Stripe: Support for Afterpay payments
Now that Stripe offers Afterpay, it would be helpful to add Afterpay to Xero's native Stripe integration.
60 votesHi team, apologies it's taken some time for us to round back here. While work was started on supporting Afterpay things have changed in this space and we no longer have direct plans for developing supporting Afterpay as a Buy Now Pay Later payment method.
Right now, for US, CA, UK and NZ there is the ability to offer Klarna as a BNPL method through Stripe which you can find out more about setting up in Xero Central.
If plans change in the future and this gets picked back up I'll be sure to come back with another update for you here.

Sales Invoice - Auto allocate Overpayments based on Invoice date
Just an idea that might help a lot of businesses.
We generate a lot of invoices over the span of one month, the feature of bank rules are amazing, but ineffective if the payment is a overpayment.I would like to have a way for Xero to have a Global setting to auto allocate overpayments to the oldest invoice for customers.
Currently overpayments will go to the customer account and just lay there until manually allocated to an invoice.
With bank rules it will automate the process by adding payments as overpayments to the customer account and then auto allocating…

Quote - Button to Accept from email received
Create a accept quote button/link within the quote email template so clients can hit the button within their email client to accept quotes instead of having to view it online or missing it within the attached PDF quote.

Quotes - Ability to create multi-section quote
Multiple sections in a single quote with their own separate totals.
Purpose: when quoting on similar products with different pricing to present to a client, with their own separate totals. Currently, we have to send a separate quote to the same client which means they're receiving multiple emails from us.
65 votesThanks for adding your support and feeding back on your needs in this idea, everyone.
While we understand how multiple sections with separate subtotals could make it easier to present options clearly and avoid sending several quotes to the same customer, we want to be upfront that this is not something we have development plans for in the near term.
Right now, a couple of options to add structure would be to use description-only lines as section headings within a quote. Alternatively, attaching separate documentation that accompanies your quote and depicts the breakdown.
We understand this isn't the ideal solution you're after here but may help some present quote details more clearly.
Another option is to explore our ecosystem apps to see if there's a service that can accommodate your full quoting needs.

Customer Statement - Option to remove allocated payments
Customer Statements - the current statements show payments allocated to invoices. This is confusing for customers who make part payments. Can Xero please bring in an option to not include payment allocations as our customers only want to view their statements by looking at the amounts they actually paid, not the break ups
31 votesAppreciate wanting to see a direct option within customer statements that exist in Xero.
An option here would be to run the Customer Invoice Activity report where you can filter by Source to remove payment type sources such as 'Receivable Payment'. Once set up this could be saved as a custom report to be run with your filters at any time. 🙂

Sales invoices - Option to turn off prompt for allocating available credit
When we create a bilk of invoices we are stuck with Xero trying each time to allocate an existing Credit Note that will possibly never be allocated. How do we disable this annoying function?

Sales invoice - Ability to combine or merge multiple invoices to one
Our new system separately invoices every job we complete. This gets loaded into xero invoices, ATM you can copy these individual jobs and they can be put on to one invoice, great.
However Xero wont let you add more jobs to this invoice by the same copy facility.
It only gives you the option of a customer name not an invoice number.
I would like to be able to add jobs daily to this invoice and send my customer one invoice at the end of the week/month.15 votes
