  1. Invoice - Add ability to "Print PDF" button to select which Invoice Branding Theme to print regardless of the Branding Theme assigned to the Invoice.

    Use Case: Business has products which are legally required to be sent to a third party. White the invoice being sent to the customer is a full invoice, a reduced version is included for this third party. With current functionality, we have to Edit the Invoice, Change the Branding Theme, Print the PDF and then edit the Invoice and revert the Branding Theme back to our standard.

    Unlike the "Invoice Options" dropdown button, I'm suggesting…

  2. It would be nice when entering transactions, for the date field to remain as the last entered date, at least while staying on the transaction page. It is frustrating having to enter the date each and every time when entering transactions. I understand a lot of people are working in there, in real time, and that it is beneficial that the date is always "todays" date, however, when entering stuff for a client from the previous month, this gets annoying.

  3. I'm invoicing through Xero and I want to allow customers to save their card on file in my stripe account when they pay an invoice.

    This way, we can bill them again in the next cycle. We deal with metered pricing, so the value of the invoice is different each month based on usage.

  5. Add the tick box in Sales Overview > Invoices > ALL tab

    We want to bulk upload all invoices for the week in 1 file regardless of the status (paid/unpaid). We couldn't at the moment because of the absence of the tick boxes in the ALL tab.

    Rounding back on your idea here, Abigail - It'd be good to get more understanding of your business flow and why you'd be wanting to create invoices of another status. For example is here a specific reason you'd like to import invoices that have already been paid for? Could these potentially be entered as Receive monies or is there a reason they need to be raised in Xero once they've already been paid? TIA 

  6. If the Total Tax amount per invoice was available for statements, then the Statement could be used as a periodic Tax Invoice.

  7. This is simple and easy, just have the option to display the customer VAT number on invoices. Why is there only a Tax number. Now we need to help the clients to not update a legacy template so it can just show VAT number instead on Tax number.

  8. The new fallback invoice template looks fantastic and is a big improvement overall. However, the due date and invoice date fields appear extremely bold and, oddly, use inconsistent font sizes even though they are side by side. This makes the dates stand out more than intended and looks unprofessional, especially since the rest of the template is so clean and well-designed.

    It would be great to have the option to adjust the font size and weight specifically for these date fields, or at least ensure they match the rest of the template’s font settings. This would help maintain a consistent,…

  9. Notify the client that a Customer has reached (or is reaching) their credit limit automatically via email - the prompt when invoicing is useful but when doing a virtual finance function for a client, an automatic notification to be produced when a customer is reaching the credit limit would be beneficial and would reduce the need for additional external communication

    Thanks so much for sharing your idea!! We can see how helpful it would be for Xero to automatically notify you when a customer is close to, or has reached, their credit limit.

    Our Community team has reviewed your idea and we’ve now moved it to Gaining Support.

    Other community members can now vote on your idea and add comments to share more detail about how this kind of notification could improve their experience with Xero 🤝

  10. Xero urgently needs native Terms of Trade support.
    Right now, the only option is attaching multi-page T&Cs to invoices — this is clunky, unprofessional, and not how modern businesses operate. REF:Advanced Invoice Template (DOCX)

    We need:

    A short-form legal clause on invoices and quotes
    A clickable link to full Terms of Trade
    A single, centralised setup in organisation settings

    Invoices should be clean and readable, not overloaded with pages of legal text just to remain enforceable.
    This is a basic business requirement, not a workaround:

    Improves professionalism
    Reduces friction with customers
    Supports legal enforceability
    Aligns quotes, invoices, and onboarding

    Hi, 💥Thanks for sharing this idea and for explaining the need so clearly. We’ve moved this idea to Gaining Support while we continue to learn more about how customers would like this to work in Xero.

    We understand the request is for a simpler, more professional way to include legal Terms of Trade on invoices and quotes, such as a short legal clause, a link to full terms, and a central place to manage this in organisation settings, without needing to attach extra pages to each document.

    If this would be valuable for your business, please keep voting and add a comment with more detail about your use case.

  11. The New Invoice Template looks good but when you get stuck into it, it isn't.

    Why does Xero always introduced a half-baked "upgrades" that are not fully functional?

    In the UK I do not want to see the phrase "Tax Invoice" - here it is just an Invoice, the old template I could delete the unnecessary word but not in the new template! Why?

    I tried to set up a new Standard template but we get warning messages about it every time an invoice is entered, again why? If something is missing then tell me what - even support was…

    Hi Simon, thanks for posting your idea. Giving businesses more control over the wording used in the new branding themes could help create a more tailored invoicing experience.

    If you need complete control over invoice wording today, custom DOCX branding themes allow you to edit static labels and headings before uploading the template back into Xero. We appreciate that this isn't as convenient as being able to edit the wording directly within the new branding theme editor.

    I've updated the status of this idea to Gaining Support so we can continue tracking interest from the community. If there are particular labels or phrases you'd like to customise, let us know as those examples will help us better understand the most valuable improvements.

  12. I would like the ability to restore voided / deleted invoices and bills. Sometimes an item is deleted by accident but to restore it I have to copy it to a new draft and then re-attach any PDFs, which is clumsy and time consuming.

  13. With so many forecasting app using Xero Invoices & Quotes, we would like to see Quotes get an upgrade. Specifically add fields to show the billing frequency for that line.

    This would allow us to build our dymanic quotes in Xero, showing one time fees and monthly recurring ones. Hopefully this could also then auto-create the correct invoice types when accepted. So One-time lines are grouped into one regular invoice and all monthly lines are grouped onto a monthly repeating template.

    Hi Rebecca, thanks for sharing your idea, and letting us know the changes that matter most for you. While there is no development plans yet, we will open this idea up for other users who may find this feature useful so that product team has more visibility. In the meantime, the best option is to continue using repeating invoices. Cheers

  14. As small market gardeners we currently utilize the invoice and packing slip within Xero which works and works for us well. My suggestion idea is to take the packing slips which identify how many of what items required and collate those into a printable or electronic report (picking slip) which provides a total no. of each of the items within the packing slips over a specified date range. look forward to feedback

    Thanks so much for sharing this idea 😊

    We can see how useful it would be to have packing slips collated into a printable or electronic picking slip that totals the quantities needed for each item across a selected date range.

    We’re going to move this idea to Gaining Support so we can continue to track interest and feedback from other customers who’d also like to see this in Xero.

    Please feel free to share this idea with friends or colleagues and encourage them to vote or add a comment too, as that helps us understand whether this is something more people would like to see in Xero.

  15. Invoicing Add Payment - can we please have the add payment option pop up in a separate box like it did before on the new invoicing. Now you have to scroll to the bottom of the page to enter details and add payment, but I have to scroll up to see my invoice number and reference and as I type, it scrolls back to the top.. like you're fighting with something that should be a 2 second job. Why does this need to be on the bottom and why did it change at all?

    Hi everyone, we hear the request for an in-page popup option to add payments, so you can apply payments to invoices without needing to scroll up/down the screen.

    We’ve moved this to Gaining Support so we can track interest and help our product teams understand the value of improving the payment entry experience.

  16. 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.

  17. A problem I have each month is when preparing sales invoices - I use several branding themes, one of which is for the AdFin integration.

    It would be ideal to be able to see on the invoice list (in Sales > Invoices) which theme was attached to each invoice, it would be further beneficial to be able to select a bunch of invoices and bulk change the theme where required.

    Thanks for sharing this idea about adding a Branding Theme column to the Sales Overview screen.

    We've reviewed your idea and now it's up to the community to get behind and support it. Make sure you share your idea with any colleagues that this could benefit so they can add their votes and comments too!

    We need to keep a separate Ideas discussion for each idea, so there's an existing product idea for updating themes in bulk, where you might also like to add your vote, here: https://productideas.xero.com/admin/v3/ideas/48414839

  18. Our practice makes use of Xero's ability to import invoices to do monthly utility billing and have found Xero's feedback notice / confirm import page to be VERY useful.

    On this page Xero notifies us if
    - any invoices will not be imported due to errors
    - invoice number already exists
    - any item descriptions and/or prices differ from the Xero org's listed products and services

    Unfortunately, it does not notify the user if any new contacts will be created on confirmation, as imported invoices automatically create a new contact if a matching one does not exist.
    This sometimes happens…

    Appreciate the feedback on invoice import notifications. Hearing how a prompt for new contacts could help keep your monthly utility billing clean and avoid unintentional duplicates is really useful.

    We’ve moved this idea to Gaining support, so the community can now vote and share their own experiences. Any extra context about how this impacts your workflow would be helpful for others reading along.

    We’ll share any updates here as the idea progresses.

  19. Until recently when I saved a packing slip the default name was eg 'Packing Slip Inv - 4080'.

    Then recently after you dated your system the packing slips are now called eg 'Invoice Packing Slip Inv - 4080'.

    Can you change it back to remove the word invoice as it can cause confusion and staff may send the wrong document to suppliers and customers as both look like invoices.

    I am changing the name manually but it was simpler and clearer before Xero added the word 'invoice'

    If you can change it back that would be great and I'm sure…

  20. Currently Quotes are not able to be sent directly for e-sign acceptance (i.e. clients will need to print physical copy of quote, sign and email back unless they have access to adobe sign). It would be an improvement if quote can be sent to Xero Sign for signing and audit trail. Alternatively, it would also be great if clients can accept/decline from the quote email.
