  2. Delivery Address:

    To have the ability to add a delivery address when raising an invoice that can be printed onto the invoice. This would need to permanently save the delivery address to that invoice. When a new invoice to the same customer is raised then have the ability to enter another delivery address if required without effecting the previous invoice delivery address.

    Hi community, we appreciate the comments about your needs in this idea.

    We get the importance of being able to set a delivery address for an individual invoice and have that address remain tied to that invoice, without overwriting the delivery details on past invoices or changing the default details for the contact.

    With a clear understanding of the risks in altering historical invoice delivery details and delving into the wide range of workflows this feature would support, we want you to know this is something we’re looking to solve.

    We have a larger project around being able to support multiple addresses per contact in invoicing, and as part of this we’ll be enabling the ability to update delivery address details on an invoice-by-invoice basis.

    There are few steps for us to get through before we can deliver and get this in your hands but I’ll be sure to share…

  3. Ability to tick/select invoices over multiple pages.

    Purpose: To save users time when they’re doing batch deposits.

    Hi community,

    I wanted to let you know that the product and tech team have been following this thread and have been listening to your interest in the functionality. We do understand the frustration it’s causing when dealing with a large number of invoices awaiting payment. Your time is valuable, and the challenges you’ve encountered are not reflective of the seamless experience we aim to provide.

    However, we are not able to build everything at once. And as a global business with many requests for our different regions and needs, when it comes to payments, we are prioritizing first improving the online invoicing experience to allow more payers to pay online. That is the most critical functionality as we know those using online payments, get paid faster. There are still some critical needs here.

    This idea is on our radar though, and as we work through the priority list, it…

  4. The ability to recognise future revenue from the invoice.

    Purpose: To find out the future revenue, because for some businesses the invoice that they’ve issued to their customer is the revenue for the future month.

    Hi all, appreciate the interest and rationale in wanting to be able to recognise revenue of a sale at a date different to that of the invoice or payment date.

    While this maybe a function we look to explore in the long-term we want to be upfront that this is not something we'll be developing in the near term. In the meantime it may be best to look into connected apps that can solve for revenue recognition. We'll be sure to let you know if there's any change around this, here.

  5. Ability to add CC/BCC on every outgoing invoice reminder email.

    Purpose: To make other users can see the exact email that the customer/client sees."

    Thanks for your continued input and contribution to this idea. We've now released an improved send experience for new invoicing, where you have a side by side view to give you full visibility of what's being sent. Encompassed in this is also the ability to CC and BCC others in the email😊.

    For the time being this is limited to sending from the invoice itself and won't apply to Invoice Reminder emails. However, we are thinking ahead and will look to expand this capability in time. We'll keep you updated of any further progress of this here.

    Hi everyone, we appreciate that as eInvoicing is adopted by more regions and businesses the appetite for supporting eInvoicing across more of Xero’s features is growing.

    Over the coming months our product team will be looking into updates to Xero’s repeat invoices templates and support for eInvoicing within these is something that's on our teams radar. When we get to picking this up and being able to explore this deeper, we’ll keep you updated and share if there are any opportunities to bring you into our discovery.

  7. Ability to have a ‘Print now’ option in Invoices, so the invoices can be printed in one click.

    Purpose: To save users time from having to open the PDF and click Print again.

    Hi team, we appreciate all your feedback here and wanted to share an update as we have a new invoice editor that is being rolled out to all users (already available in NZ, AU, UK and US).

    This new editor provides more custom formatting options to help you create invoices that reflect your brand with a side preview so you can instantly see how changes will be shown.

    We appreciate that there are additional formatting options that you're asking for here and want to be open that we don't have any plans for providing the ability to edit text formatting in the new editor. We will continue to track votes through this idea and keep an eye on trends so if there are any changes in it's position in the future we can let you know here.

  11. It would be great to be able to group certain lines of an invoice together (for example by adding some spacing between groups), to make long invoices more readable and logically coherent.

    It used to be possible to add spacing on the Classic invoicing page by pressing Enter a few times on the description field, but this no longer works on the New invoicing.

    Hi team, thanks for sharing detail of the value in this idea in the ways you invoice.

    We've just released a new line item grid in invoicing which includes the ability to manually add blank rows and shift these to where you're like them placed in your invoice.

    That said, I want to be transparent in how this works - When you save your invoice any blank lines will be removed. So, if you'd like blank lines to help break your invoice into sections, you'll need to enter a character in the Description field of the blank line. Even a full stop '.' or dash '-' would suffice. 

  12. In invoice reminders you do not have the option to add the original invoice as a PDF. My customers accounting teams do NOT follow links in emails (against security policy), but can read an attachment (as long as it is PDF). I would like this added as an option on invoice reminders.

  13. Ability to upload changes to existing invoices via csv.

    Currently - When uploading a list of invoices that already exist, Xero will not allow the upload to continue. This feature would mean, that for any invoice that exists already, Xero would prompt the user whether they would like to update changes for existing invoices or not.

    Purpose example - For invoices that need to have changes applied, for example amending the due date to an agreed revised payment due date. This change would enable the user to bulk update instead of needing to open each invoice manually and edit each…

    Hi everyone, thanks for continuing to highlight how much time you could save with this feature.

    We’re working on an improvement to the Line Item Grid within the body of invoices, quotes, purchase orders, sales credit notes and the bills quick view that'll help speed up editing and solve some of the needs in this idea.

    We'll be enabling the ability to drag the contents of a field in one row up or down a column, making it faster to update repeated line-level details like tracking, account codes, references or tax rates within an invoice, without needing to manually re-enter the same value line by line.

    We appreciate this idea also highlights the need for more bulk actions to edit multiple invoices at once (not just within an individual invoice) and want to be upfront that this isn't something we have immediate plans of.

    I'll keep you updated of the…

  14. Can no longer add an expected payment date when viewing an invoice, you now have to go to the 'awaiting payment' section of invoices. Meaning more steps involved and lost functionality.

    Thank you to everyone that's supported and highlighted how this feature would improve your workflows when invoicing in Xero.

    I'm pleased to share that we are in the midst of developing the ability to update multiple cells of your invoice through drag and drop, or using keyboard navigation.

    Once available, (like asked here) you'll be able to drag and drop tracking selected from one row to other rows of your invoice 😁

    I'll come back to confirm once this is made available to you all!

    Hi community, some time on from my last update we'd love to share further developments in this space with you here.

    Since the rollout of our new Files inbox experience, our product teams are continue to enhance and grow out it's functionality across Xero.

    For UK organisations we recently launched Smart document capture with intentions of rolling this out to all other regions soon. With Smart document capture Xero will automatically create documents for you to review from within Xero Files. So, while a contact will be required Xero will do a lot of the manual work for you and ensure the file remains attached to the created invoice 🙂

    On the flip side we also have a team that is currently exploring how we might solve for wider needs around invoice details that are captured outside Xero and how to gets these in and automate the workflow for you.…

  17. Currently, while raising the invoice, it is not possible to show the project names in the invoice above the works done. The works indicated in the invoice should be linked to the project and this project name should be shown in the invoice.

    Thanks for your continual support and engagement here, we want to apologise it's taken so long for us to respond.

    You’ve explained the need in displaying the related Project name on an invoice clearly and your feedback here is really helpful.

    While we don’t currently have this work roadmapped, our product team's looking more broadly at how invoices can include richer information. This idea will be part of that consideration as the work develops.

    Though we can’t commit to development of projects on invoices at this stage, we wanted to acknowledge the feedback here and let you know we will make more efforts to share any updates on this idea as that broader work progresses.

  18. Adding tracking categories to a sales invoice template.

  19. It would be a huge benefit to be able to recall an email (with invoice attached) sent in error to the wrong client.

    An invoice has now gone to the wrong client and my manager will now have to have an embarrassing conversation with the competitor, due to my mistake.

    Hi team, we totally get that mistakes happen, and the ability to recall an invoice sent in error would be handy. Hearing how this affects your workflow gives us important context as we review the idea.

    At this point, this idea isn’t on our roadmap. Part of the reason is technical: implementing a true recall feature would require extensive work. Once an email leaves Xero, it travels through external email servers outside of our control. Most email providers don’t allow messages to be retracted after delivery, so reliably recalling an invoice isn’t possible in the same way it’d be within an internal system.

    We’ll be sure to update this thread if anything changes.

  20. When using Xero Projects, we can assigned Bills and Sales Invoices to a Project.

    However, it is possible to create a Sales Invoice and easily overlook assigning it to a Project.

    There is no way to identify Sales Invoices which have not been assigned to a Project. (A recent update provided a feature to do this for Bills but not Sales invoices)
