Invoices - Keep cursor focus where the user clicks during page load
When opening an invoice the cursor reverts to the Contacts field after a few seconds (after fully loading, presumably) so when I've clicked in a different field, by the time the Invoice is ready to accept changes, the cursor has flicked back to Contacts. It's such a time waster - either waiting on the invoice to load or re-typing everything again in the correct field. It doesn't happen in Quotes so can it not happen in Invoices?
2 votesWe understand how cursor focus shifting during page load can interrupt data entry and affect the invoicing workflow.
Keeping the active field selected where the user clicks, rather than defaulting back to the Contact field, would help maintain a more consistent entry experience.
We appreciate this suggestion and will continue tracking the feedback and interest shared here.

Invoices - Add custom fields to display the billing term or service duration
The ability to add custom fields to invoices based on the industry would be a fantastic feature. I have a SaaS client who bills annually that has customers reaching out about adding the invoicing term(number of months) to their invoices. Seems like there have been other ideas submitted based on specific industry requirements.
2 votesWe appreciate the suggestion, Deanne. We understand how being able to add custom field for billing terms to invoices could help provide clearer information to customers and reduce the need for manual descriptions.
Having dedicated fields for service start and end dates could also support businesses managing ongoing contracts, retainers, or deferred revenue workflows.
We’ll continue tracking the feedback and interest shared here.

Invoice - Ability to print packing list while in Draft
Be able to print packing slips BEFORE approving the invoice. You are able to print "draft invoice" before approving so would be handy to be able to do packing slips too. We have to send customers PLs before they agree to taking the goods so we have to copy, paste, print & scan it to send to them.
2 votesAppreciate your feedback here, Lynsey. It'll be good to get a sense of other members that have a similar workflow from your idea here.
This isn't something we have p[lans for atm, but will keep an eye on the support in this here.

Backdated payment warning - Ability to turn warning on or off
Ability to turn off / toggle the warning for
"The invoice was raised after the payment you are reconciling to"
Alot of my invoices are dated after the payment date for whatever reason. It would be create to have a choice whether to receive this warning or not.

Increase Storage Capacity to upload files to transactions
Increase upload file storage capacity to attach PDF and Excel Spreadsheet together with the invoice.
2 votesThanks for sharing this idea. 🌟 At the moment, Xero does support attaching multiple files, but each individual file needs to be under 25MB.
So this limit applies per file, rather than as one total cap across all files uploaded through the common file uploader.
We understand why larger file support would be helpful, and we’ll leave this idea here so the team can continue to gauge interest and demand for changes in this area.

Stripe autopay - warning when removing payment from invoice with past due date
ISSUE: Payment deletion triggers uncontrolled automatic charges and reminders
When a payment is deleted in Xero (even to correct a reconciliation mistake), it automatically re-triggers both autopay and invoice reminder notifications without any warning or opportunity to prevent it. This created a situation where:
- A bookkeeper deleted a payment to reconcile what appeared to be a duplicate charge in Stripe
- This action caused Xero to mark the invoice as unpaid and automatically re-charge an autopay client through Stripe without ANY notification, which cannot be recalled.
- A second client received an invoice reminder and paid again manually
THE PROBLEM:
There's currently…2 votesAppreciate your feedback and desire for a warning that Stripe auto pay will be triggered if a payment is removed from an invoice with a. past due date, Mandy.
We don't have any immediate plans for changing the behaviour of how this auto payments are triggered when payment services have been applied to an invoice but will start to feel out the interest for this from the community here.
For now we'd recommend checking for any payment services applied to an invoice before a payment is removed. If needed you can toggle off a payment service for the individual invoice before taking actions we have some help on this here just follow the second option for an approved invoice.

Invoicing | Add Payment - Align bank account order across UI
When using the "Add Payment" button on an Invoice, I am regularly confused because the Banks are not in the same sort order I've assigned on the Dashboard / Bank Accounts Page.
This sort order is already applied to the "New Spend Money" page. So really it would be ideal if it matched platform-wide
This is complicated for me since Stripe requires a new account for each platform.
Hopefully the attached screenshot makes the request / issue clearer.
2 votesHi Sandy thanks for raising this with us. This is a great idea , to unify the account order across the platform. We'll move this idea so it gains more support from the community. In the meantime please feel free to share this with your peers who might also benefit from this change. We will monitor this space for more traction.

Quotes - New Status for quotes on hold
In addition to the existing quote tabs, add an On Hold status. It does not need a separate tab. The quote can stay on the Sent page with a clear visual indicator like a dot, icon, or color tag showing it is on hold. This would cover quotes that are not ready to proceed or are conditionally approved but not fully approved, without marking them as accepted. Although the notes section is quite handy, I believe having some sort of visual impact will increase the users' efficiency. :)

Paypal - Ability to add additional Paypal accounts to organisation
If not already in the pipeline, please make it possible to Sync multiple PayPal accounts! We have three businesses under our ABN/umbrella - and would really like to be able to sync ALL paypal accounts, not just the one.

Open PDF's in a new tab for printing instead of downloading the file first.
When printing a PDF the file opens in a new tab so it can be printed instead of downloading the file. Xero downloads the PDF to file when the "Print PDF" button is clicked creating file clutter and unnecessary steps to print a PDF. It would be useful if the PDF opened in a new tab and could be printed immediately without downloading the file first like other accounting software does. This will save time and clutter in files.
2 votesThank you for your suggestion to have PDFs open in a new tab or preview window for easier printing.
Currently, as you know, Xero downloads PDFs directly to your device before you can print them. While we’ve looked into opening PDFs in a new tab, there are challenges like browser pop-up blockers and security concerns that make this difficult to support smoothly for everyone.
At this stage, there are no plans to change the current process. However, your feedback is valued, and you can continue to share your thoughts and support for this idea on our product ideas page.

Stripe Autopay - Report to show Autopay status of an invoice
AutoPay reporting - Xero needs a report that will show all the customer paying by AutoPay or show the percentage of invoices setup with AutoPay or even just have AutoPay Active/AutoPay offered in a separate column on the list of repeating invoices so we could sort by that information to determine how many of our customers are using AutoPay.

Receivable Invoice Detail Report - Show Same Description Format that was entered on Invoice
The way an invoice displays on an invoice it so very different to how it appears on the Receivable Invoice Detail report - it is ridiculously different (and in many cases, unreadable).
Can Xero please honour the spacing entered in invoices (for a reason) on the Receivable Invoice Detail Report.
Not really understanding why this wouldn't automatically be the case.
2 votesThank you for your idea. While we appreciate the suggestion, we've decided not to add this feature to our current plans. For users with a large number of invoices, the report would be too big to be useful. This would really only be a good option for users with a small number of invoices.
If you'd like to achieve this, you could consider using add-ons.

Invoicing - view contacts last few invoices (at least 5)
Hi Xero Team,
I’d love to suggest a feature that would really improve efficiency when invoicing clients with recurring or frequent billing.
In QuickBooks, when selecting a contact on an invoice, it would show a quick reference of that client’s last 5 invoice amounts. This helped a lot with ensuring consistency in recurring invoices, especially when amounts vary slightly month-to-month.
In Xero, the “Add Last Item” toggle doesn’t quite solve this, since many clients have more than one invoice per month — so it may not reflect the most relevant or recent invoice for the context.
It would be amazing…

Invoicing - Issue warning when unit price is Nil
It would be great to have the ability that Xero gives you a warning when an item line in Invoicing has a $0.00 in the unit price before been approved.
We have had clients that missed completing the price and then the Invoices are sent out.
It would be handy if they got a reminder that this is $0.

Invoicing - Pin the Contact for entering multiple invoices for the same customer
When entering a number of invoices for the same customer or vendor it would be great not having to reenter the name for each entry. Recommend the ability to "pin" a name for multiple entries under the same name.
2 votesHi Kari
Thanks for sharing this idea about pinning the Contact when you enter multiple transactions for the same customer.
Now it's up to the community to get behind and support this. You might like to share your idea with any colleagues that this could benefit so they can add their votes and comments to support your ideas!
NB. We need to keep ideas for the different areas of Xero separate. If you'd also like to see this feature when adding supplier bills, we'd need you to raise a separate Product Idea for it, so the community can also vote for that to support it.

Invoicing | Contact - Default address based on GPS
Hi,
My business often delivers the same or similar services to repeat customers. It would be useful if Xero could default the contact address based on GPS Location, and then even propose default invoice items and pricing to make the invoicing process easier. This reduces the risk of invoicing mistakes and adds efficiency into the process for invoice creation. Also helps with contact payment process improvement.2 votesHey Nathan, thanks for sharing this idea. Using GPS to automatically fill in a contact’s address would save you time and make invoicing on the go much smoother.
It’s a smart way to reduce manual entry and help keep addresses accurate.
This feature is now in Gaining Support. If you think it’d be useful, please add your vote or comment. Hearing from all of you helps our product team understand what matters most.

Jobber integration to sync data from Xero
There is currently a way one sync from Jobber to Xero. It would be great if a sync from Xero to Jobber can be implemented to records payments in Jobber as soon as a transaction is reconciled in Xero. Similar to what is being one with Thryv and other integrations. This will save me about 1 hour of effort everyday and about 5 hours monthly when the bulk payments come in. I have tried to implement this myself however Jobber API support states they will only allow this if a partner works with them like Quickbooks and Stripe.
2 votesHi Jaco, I want to be open that we don't typically design and build integrations with other apps ourselves. We have a Xero Developer ecosystem where interested parties can come to get information on how to integrate and sync data from Xero with their application. If not already, I'd suggest letting Jobber support team know this is something you'd like to see and if they'd consider expanding their integration for.

Invoicing - Adjust 28 days conflict for 30 day suppliers in February
In February this year, all suplier invoices that were supposed to be marked 30 days, got moved to due in March and not end Feb due to the 28 days, This needs to be changed as an exception as there will never be 30 days in Feb.
