Sales - Ability to request remittance from customers
How many times have we received a payment from a customer and not known which invoices they have paid? Or followed up an outstanding invoice that they have listed as paid in their system?
It would be great to have a button to request remittance advice from a customer for a particular deposit. We have a list of customers for many of our clients where we manually send these requests via email. It is time-consuming and inefficient, though it would be great to have the automation of sending the request straight out of Xero from the Bank Rec screen!
11 votesAppreciate no direct feature for this at present, Grace and we'll begin to get a sense of the interest in this here. In the meantime, perhaps including the request in the invoice Terms and Conditions could be a good indicator that this is something you request of your customers when sending the invoice or reminders?

Invoices - Ability to show invoice branding theme in Draft list page
Please Please put the option to see what branding theme is on the invoice on the DRAFT invoice page -- If you have 50 invoices in a batch with different themes its a nightmare. And then also Step 2 - PLEASE link the email template automatically to the branding theme. It would make our lives much simpler. We process many invoices in batches with two different themes. Not having the ability to even see the branding on the draft page is crazy. How hard can it be to put that field up as a display item - You have others…
11 votesThanks for the detail in your feedback here, Paul.
The second point around being able to link email templates to branding theme is something that's been raised in another idea and would be good to track separately so I've updated the title of your idea here, and encourage you to add your vote and join the other for updates, too!

Invoices - Protect/Lock invoices from alterations (in addition to Lock Dates)
Our company's invoicing procedure comprises three steps:
(1) invoice generation by our own custom software and also pushed to Xero through the Xero API,
(2) direct debit payments manually added and processed via GoCardless (on their own website, not Xero's integration) for selected invoices, and
(3) invoice reconciliation in Xero. This process is jeopardized when any alterations are made to the invoices in any of the systems (our database, Xero, or GoCardless), causing inconsistencies and the need for corrective credit notes.We primarily use our custom software for invoice generation and management (90%) and occasionally create manual invoices in Xero…

Invoices - Select which line items to include when printing a packing slip from an invoice.
The ability to choose what items to include from the invoice on the packing slip. This means I can select not to have freight and set-up charges on the packing slip as they are not actual items being sent to customers.

Invoices - Create APCA or ABA files from recurring invoices
As a DE User we would like to be able to upload a file to the bank creating the direct debits associated with subscriptions or payment plans. (The converse of the supplier payment batch file.)
The functionality exists already, including the space for the client's BSB and Account number; and the capacity for "strip invoicing" so this should be a relatively quick and easy job.11 votes -
Sales invoice | History - Show I.P. Address with date & time viewed
When a client opens an invoice or quote Xero shows the IP address of whom ever opened it and the time it was opened. This is especially helpful when multiple people have access to the invoices. It also shows that the client did in fact see the invoice especially when they claim they haven't. Handy tool for chasing payment
11 votesWe appreciate your feedback on how we could improve new invoicing, and the details that would help you track when a customers has viewed your invoice. While recording I.P. address of when a user opens an invoice or quote you’ve sent isn’t in the plans right now, we’re continuing development in this space and our product teams would like to engage you all here to get a deepened sense of our invoicing users, for future improvements. If you'd be interested in sharing further feedback we have a survey you can fill in. We'd love to get your input.

Invoice Payments - Collect GoCardless "ASAP" instead of on Due Date
It would be really good to have a tick box on the Invoice creation page similar to "GoCardless: Collect ASAP" which would cause the payment to be collected ASAP as opposed to on the Due Date of the invoice.
For customers who already have a mandate set up via GoCardless, using "+0 days" for Repeating Invoices or "Today" for standard invoices as the Due Date resolves the problem in a way - the money is collected ASAP.
But for customers who do not have a mandate set up, things get even more complicated.
We generally set the Due Date of…11 votes -
Xero Accounting app - Notification when quote accepted

Deposits can be assigned to an order, the customer can receive a confirmation that their deposit has been received. This only needs to become an Invoice once the work is ready to be…

Online Invoice - Allow custom Invoice titles like "Donation Request"
We would love to have the ability to change the hardcoded word "Invoice" on the online payment portal screens and the automated email action buttons. Currently, even if we use an advanced DOCX template to change our PDF layout to a "Donation Request," Xero doesn't match this online. The green email button is permanently locked to "View Invoice", and the online Stripe payment portal forcefully flashes "Tax Invoice" or "Invoice" at the top left.
As a secondary bonus, being able to edit the standard Invoice title settings inline with Quotes, Statements, and Credit Notes (which already allow custom titles) would…
10 votesThanks for sharing this idea and explaining how the current wording can make an optional donation feel like a commercial invoice for your supporters.
We’ve updated our branding and invoice templates so you can customise the title shown on transaction documents. However, this customisation doesn’t currently extend to every customer-facing touchpoint, such as the online payment portal or the labels on automated email buttons.
We understand that you’re requesting a broader level of customisation, including the ability to replace terms such as “Invoice” with wording like “Donation Request” across these experiences. As this isn’t currently supported, we’re moving your idea to Gaining Support so other customers can vote for it and help us understand the demand for this enhancement.
Thanks again for taking the time to share your feedback.

Quotes - Show as Estimate in addition to Quote
We would like the option to provide an "estimate" for our Customers, rather than a quote. In our industry, we don't know exactly what items will be required, until we have started the job. If we give our Customers a quote, they expect us to honour the price quoted. An estimate gives us more flexibilty with the specific items we need to order and charge for.
10 votesThanks for sharing your idea, and letting us know the changes that matter most for you. While this feature is not possible at the moment, you are able to use an advanced invoice template to show the quote name as Estimate. You can then switch between either one of the branding themes for when you want it to show as an estimate.

Invoicing | Inventory - Auto update sales price
Every time i send an invoice, I update the new pricing for an inventory item in the invoice. This is manual but it should then automatically update the inventory price as well. so in short, the inventory should be following the latest invoice pricing to keep up to date.
10 votesThanks for sharing here, team - Currently, once you've selected an inventory item on a row of your invoice, if you click on the Item code field again you'll see the option to Edit which will open the item details modal for you to make changes, Save and continue on invoicing.
Understand some users may like this to be more automatic based on what you're entering in the line. I want to be transparent that we don't have plans around this and would need to consider how we make this optional for different use cases but for now we'll track the interest through the idea here.

Repeating Invoice - ability to add End Date BEFORE the next invoice date
To be able to add an end date to a repeating invoice which is before the "next invoice date". Often clients do not receive notice that a repeating invoice will not be due until after the latest invoice has been sent. They don't want to delete the repeat invoice so they can see a history of previous repeats. Currently can't set an end date that is before the "next posting date".
10 votesHi team, while this isn't something we have planned we're continuing to watch support for this here closely.
Right now, while not the ideal solution you're after here, you could open the Repeat template and change the Invoice date to the current date so you can set the End date earlier.
If you also select to Save as draft you could then open and Delete the invoice that is generated from the template without it going to your customer.
We'll share if there are any plans made that change the position of this idea. Thanks

Sales invoice - Choose where to save pdf when downloading
I would like to be able to 'print' or 'save' a pdf invoice to a folder of my choosing rather than to the default 'downloads'
Currently ALL downloaded items from the internet are placed in 'downloads' so I need to move the invoice pdf to my chosen folder. It would be a excellent time saver if I could choose my own folder to save to, and have it use this chosen folder each time.I believe it is a software bug to rely on the default settings of the users browser to determine where files are saved to.

New Invoicing - Add Total at Top
Add a total invoice amount at the top of the screen like the old invoicing format. It's a pain to open an invoice and have to scroll all the way to the bottom to find the total amount of the invoice, especially if it's a long invoice. The old invoice format shows the invoice total at the top of screen
10 votesWhile we don't have any direct plans for adding a total back at the top of the invoice, it'd be good to get a sense of the interest if this is important to others in community here, too.
Though I appreciate it's not a solve for the idea. To help speed up getting to the bottom of the page on those lengthier invoices, Julie you may find using the 'end' button on your keyboard helpful 🙂
