  1. Most of our customers prefer receiving invoices via SMS. When trying to print the invoice via the SMS link, it generates a 2-3 page online version of the invoice. Can you implement a "Print pdf" option that would generate the same concise layout used when previewing the invoice in Xero? Thank you!

    Great to get this sort of insight, Kelly. Thanks for sharing. We'd like to get a sense of the wider interest for being able to print PDF from the SMS invoice message, please feel free to share with any colleagues or customers that you know would find this useful so they can vote on this too.

  2. Please add a description box so that we can add additional information about the reason for the invoice. Being a garage we have to add description of car repairs carried out in the item line. Even if we could go right along the page with the text it would help a lot. At the moment invoices look messy and take up a lot of the page.
    attached sample layout would be perfect...

  3. When searching if an item code exists in the item column when in bill entry, the drop down minimises to "+NEW ITEM" - ideal if the code you have already typed (i.e) the new on to be set up, can be automatically copied into the new item set up pop out. Additionally it would be fantastic if the what is typed into the item name and be replicated in the purchase description box, if overtyped - currently it replicates, however if you then change the text in the item name it does not change in the purchase description box

  4. We don't send all invoices out as some invoicing is done through other apps, however the invoices still need to be there. Could there be a button on the screen listing invoices to mark an invoice as sent without having to go into the invoice or to print it.

  5. New Statements with a pay now option are excellent. I feel it would be helpful for the customer to be able to select a credit note to pay to avoid overpayments.

    Ie: customer has $400 in credit from December and a January invoice for $200 - on the January statement the customer is still allowed to select to pay the $200 invoice and not take up the credit note.

    Great to hear you like the pay now option on statements, Marney. Can see how it would be useful to be able to include and apply Credit Notes when making payment. We'll start to get a sense of the interest in this from others on your idea and I'll share if there are any updates for you on this.

  6. Invoices are being automatically "Unmarked Sent" even after manually marking as sent. This defeats the purpose of having notifications/reminders for clients. This needs fixing ASAP.

  7. Is it possible to display the amount of GST, not the percentage of GST? We have a department who wants to see on the invoice .....
    Cost before GST, amount of GST-not percentage then total, all on the one line.

  8. Request ability to bulk upload Contact default due dates into bulk imported Draft invoices containing no due date. Approval currently prevented due to missing due date but require that to be populated from Contact default data. Work around for individual invoices is to preview prior to Approval but that is time consuming for large numbers of invoices included in batch import.

  9. I have clients with several different contacts and I would like to keep the specific contact from the invoice that I am copying. Instead it copies the contact from the last invoice to that client.

  10. The lowdown on transaction limits:

    1,000 sales invoices (based on 10 line items per invoice)
    1,000 purchase bills (based on 10 line items per bill)
    2,000 account transactions
    2,000 bank statement lines
    1,000 lines per statement

    Feature Request:
    Increase system transaction limits (invoices, bills, bank line items, etc.) for higher-volume users

    Description:
    As businesses scale and transaction volumes grow, Xero’s current handling limits (per document line items or per period) can become a constraint — especially for industries with complex billing (multiple lines, consolidations) and those migrating from systems with higher allowances (e.g., Zoho Books Enterprise plans). Increasing these limits…

  11. Add native integration between Xero and Zoho Invoice (FREE): Custom templates

    "Many small and medium businesses use a combination of Xero for core accounting and Zoho Invoice (FREE) for invoicing, custom templates, client portal features, and payment links. A native Xero–Zoho Invoice integration would streamline workflows and eliminate duplication of effort."

    Current Challenge:

    1. Users must manually re-adjust invoices in Word if to customise Xero invoices offline.
    2. Requires much time and effort to export, build, import and test - until working.
    3. Word customisation is limited, and an integration to Zoho Invoice would be much easier.

    Proposed Solution:

    "Add a native connector…

  12. Provide a setting to hide GST from the quote total (display only), allowing businesses to present ex-GST pricing (while clearly noting prices are ex GST in the notes below for transparency). GST is still automatically included when the quote is invoiced.

  13. We have assigned our supplier contacts into "how they are paid" groups which allows Aged Payables reporting by payment type, it would be so useful to be able to filter by group in the purchases - awaiting payment screen, and also be able to add the column "group" into the screen. This would make filtering by EFT suppliers, and exclude suppliers invoices that are paid by Direct Debit or Credit Cards etc.

  14. More than once I've accidentally clicked on submit for approval when I only wanted to save and leave the Invoice or bill in Drafts. It would be so handy if there was a 'revert back to drafts' option.

  15. I wanted to share some feedback regarding the invoice templates. Currently, invoices always display individual item prices, which makes it difficult for businesses like ours that offer package or bundled services. It would be very helpful to have an option to show only the overall package price or total cost, without displaying each item individually.

    This feature would improve clarity for our clients and streamline the invoicing process for businesses that work with bundled pricing.

    Thank you for considering this suggestion!

  16. 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…

  17. INVOICE REMINDER EMAIL ADDRESS SAVED PER INVOICE - Enable invoice reminder emails to be captured and stored on a per-invoice basis, rather than reverting to the main contact.

    For organisations with global customers, invoice recipients often vary by region, project, or business unit. In our organisation, a single customer can have multiple valid invoice contacts depending on the specific project.

    Currently, reminder emails default back to the primary contact, forcing users to manually re-enter or amend the email address each time. This is inefficient, error-prone, and very labour-intensive at scale.

    Allowing the reminder email address to be saved per invoice…

    Hi Michael, just trying to understand your idea here a little better. When you Accept a quite at present do you manually enter the PO into Xero?

    Currently when entering the Purchase order there are 2 fields this could be entered

    • Order Number
    • Reference

    Can you share a little more about your process and what's missing in Xero for your workflow here?

  • Don't see your idea?
