https://central.xero.com/s/article/Email-PDF-bills-into-your-Xero-organisation34 votesHi team 👋
I'm Johnathan, one of the Product Managers in Invoicing.
With an aim to reduce the manual burden of entering invoices and automating more workflows for our users, we're diving deeper into how we might solve needs in the idea here.
I'd love to connect with some of our customers directly, to better understand your use and workflows with invoicing in Xero!
If you'd be interested in giving up a little of your time please book in via this Calendly link - I look forward to meeting with you soon
We'll work with the community team to round back and keep you updated of where this research takes us 😁

Invoice - Apportion payment to specific line items
Apportion payment to specific line items on invoices. This would allow you to choose where to apply the payment, making it possible to have invoices with multiple payments to have the sales taxed/no sale tax payment correctly and just not proportionally.

Customer Statements - Use Contact default to apply template
We are a multi-currency business. We send out invoices in GBP (base currency), EUR and USD. We have 3 bank accounts (GBP, EUR, USD. I therefore had to create separate invoice templates for each currency, to show the correct bank details. I added the relevant invoice theme when setting up a new contact (customer). This works well when raising an invoice. However when manually sending out a statement it does not take the invoice theme from the one chosen on the invoice (= in our case normally default invoice theme on contact). It takes the ‘default template’ = the first…

Invoicing - Show Delivery Address on invoices by default
Enable the option for invoices to by default display both billing and delivery addresses.
33 votesHi team, while not a 'default' option for this within Xero, you could achieve this using a Custom DOCX branding theme, with an advanced invoice template.
With the template open in Microsoft Word, you can add the ContactPhysicalAddress merge field where you want their Delivery Address to appear.
You can add your logo and make any other changes you'd like, before saving the file and uploading it back into your branding theme in Xero.
You'll then want to select this custom branding theme for your invoices.

Invoice - Include the payment dates and payments made when sending invoices to clients.
Include the payment dates and payments made when sending invoices to clients.
Currently once the invoice is downloaded or sent to client, it shows the total amount paid, but not broken down by date as per the screen shot i have attached. Currently it only shows «InvoiceTotalNetPayments»33 votes -

Invoices - Ability to set "Ask a question" replies to be sent to the organisation delegated email address
Currently, when a client clicks on "Ask a question" when viewing their invoice. This message is sent to the staff members personal email that created the contact in Xero rather than the delegated email address the organisation has selected in Email settings.
What if the staff member no longer works at the company or these emails are being missed as they are not sent to the organisations delegated email?

Invoice reminder - Show the list of those contacts that have reminders turned off
Currently there is no easy way to review the on/off status of invoice reminders for Customer unless they have an outstanding balance, and even then this is only on screen and not exportable, so either a way to filter the Customer list for those which have invoice reminders turned off, or just a report that can be run with a column for the reminders status (on/off and number of reminder sent) would be useful for better credit control review.
32 votesHey team, thanks for sharing how we can improve Invoice reminders and make these more powerful for use in your business.
Our product team has kicked off some research around Invoice reminders. It'd be great to get your input - We've got a quick form here where you can sign up to be part of the process.
As we do our research, the team might reach out with surveys or even chat with some of you directly. We'd be super grateful for your involvement in shaping the future of Invoice Reminders at Xero!

Sales: Invoicing - Include QR code for quick entry
Add custom QR code to invoices sent from Xero
Purpose: Ease of entry - to scan and upload to your Xero org for auto creation of bills.
32 votesHi everyone, we appreciate the interest for being able to add QR codes to invoices.
While this is something we started looking into this is not something we're developing.
To set the right expectation I'll shift this status to submitted and we can continue to track the interest here.

Sales | Notification that invoice sent/not sent
To be informed of the status of mail sent from Xero
Purpose: Identify contacts that mail is not getting to, and ability to validate if information has been received by contacts32 votesHi team, while we intend to explore more controls of notifications long term I want to be upfront that we don't have any plans for changing the existing invoice notifications in the near term.
There are also factors on the recipients email providers end that could make this notification difficult to provide with certainty.
Right now, you'll see an event in the history of an invoice when an invoice is sent from Xero, and you could also choose to send a copy to self as a measure to ensure the invoice can be received in your own email inbox. If you'd prefer these not appear in your direct inbox you could set up a filter to route these to a folder.
We appreciate the interest here but want to be honest and open with you here.

Invoicing | Tracking - don't override with contact default when copying invoice
Kelly, the procedure to copy an invoice was improved, but it is still erroneous. We have tracking category (department) recorded in customer's settings. But for some customers we issue invoices with the other department tracking category.
New invoicing does not copy that "other" category. When the invoice is copied, all customer's default settings applied to it. In my particular case, it is wrong. I do not want customer's default tracking category; I want a copy of the INVOICE with the correct tracking category. In short, the new invoice is to be an EXACT copy.
Classic invoicing did not have this…

New invoicing - Use '.' as separators in the date field
New invoicing - ability to type "." between numbers (like you can in bills) i.e 24.6 then becomes 24 June after you press Tab.
Right now it only seems to accept 24/6, but I'm sure you used to be able to type 24.6 Tab and then it would convert to the date. If you use "." now, it will default to todays date
31 votesUnderstand our customers have different habits when entering dates, Emily. Atm you can use '-' or '/' to separate n umbers in your dates, however as you've found '.' isn't an option. We'll begin gathering interest in this here, and I'll share if there are any updates planned.

New invoicing - Show amounts with commas
Classic view invoicng compared to the new view invoicing. The new version shows figures entered as 123456789.00 but Classic View correctly shows 123,456,789.00. All figures should be shown in 123,456,789.00 format. It's accounting after all! This is not a suggestion, this should be a bug fix, especially before new invoicing is enforced.

New invoicing - View in files library when uploading and option to return to library
In New Invoicing, I need the ability to view the files in the file library prior to attaching them to an invoice, as I can do in Classic Invoicing. This is because when received into the file library, the files aren't always in the same order as they were scanned. I tried attaching a file using New Invoicing and it wasn't the right file and, because I couldn't return the file to the file library, I had to rescan the document back into the file library. Without the ability to view files prior to attaching them to the invoice, users…

Invoices - Ability to manually mark multiple invoices as sent
The ability to mark any/all invoices as sent - even if using the copy/share function to send invoices to clients.
Not all invoices are sent via email. A tick/flick box to mark off any invoices that have actually been sent via the copy/share function would be handy. There could also be another box that would act as a reminder to follow up after 'X' amount of days if the invoice remained outstanding, in the same sort of format that follow-up emails are automatically sent for payment reminder.

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…31 votes -
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 Invoice - Bulk Download of PDFs in separate files
Bulk download of invoice PDF files (not export csv)
Currently after doing a search, what I understand the current process is:
- Going under Paid / Unpaid tab under Invoices
- Checkbox all and select print
- But this clumps ALL the invoices into a single PDF file instead of one file per invoice number
- Using an online tool to split the invoices. If your invoice is more than 1 page long, you'll need to manually merge them back.
- Alternatively, manually clicking each invoice link, hitting the Print PDF button. Going back and repeat every invoice.What I…
31 votesThanks for stepping out the process for others here, Vicky. You're correct in the way this currently works.
It'd help when sharing back with the team if you could share more detail of why you'd like the ability to export in bulk but create individual files. What would this help your business do?

Invoice Templates - Drag and drop invoice designer
How come the process of designing invoices is so painful? It would be great to have a built-in drag and drop invoice designer. I realise it won't be easy but it's mad that our only option is to design them in Word. There are so many sites that allow similar functionality, albeit for non-finance related areas like marketing.
