  1. When a sales invoice is created, when you get the message Invoice saved, please also displau the new invoice number, so that is doesn't need to be looked up.

  2. Allow autopay to be applied to a group of recurring invoices, rather than having to enable it on individual invoices. This would be useful for turning Autopay on for a number of invoices for the same customer or turning it on for a number of invoices for different customers.

  3. When showing a list of statements to send (from Business - Invoices - Send Statements) from Send Statements, can the invoice number be shown on the screen so sorting can be done on invoice number. Also the date of the invoice would be handy as well to give an idea of when first looking at the front screen as to how old they are. It would make choosing and sending quicker and more efficient.

  4. Thanks for fixing Over payments in the new system - works great! - 1 adjustment - the account menu pops - UP not Down, and bank accounts are off the top of the screen need a lot of scolling, can you change to normal pop-down please? (like the Date Paid menu)

  5. Customer/recipient view of invoices on mobile should display price/quantity/VAT.

    Majority of our customers review their invoices on mobile browser. We use zero-quantity line items to include extra information/detail in our invoices, but the new format cuts out price/quantity/VAT when viewing an invoice on mobile, so these lines appear blank/empty.

    Other invoices, where customers want to review the price and quantity on their invoice, not just the line total, are similarly inaccessible.

    Understand that these areas have been removed to keep the mobile invoice condensed, but it now means key information is missing from the invoice, and is resulting in more…

  6. I have noticed that when you are preparing to send an invoice via email in Xero that you can now add new addresses in the TO, CC and BCC lines. This is great.

    However, I have noticed that ALL contacts are available to add here. It would be safer to only allow the contact email addresses associated with the contact name on the invoice. It is too easy to add the wrong address and potentially send invoice information to the wrong client.

    If other people needed to do this, perhaps a tick box could be applied to allow ALL CONTACTS…

  7. Recently half of the emails I thought I had sent were 'unable to be sent'. I had no idea until I became worried why my usually reliable clients had not paid me on time. After looking I saw this message on the 'History' trail.

    My suggestion is that where an error occurs like this there is a significant error message signal e.g. a box comes up or things are highlighted in red and bold.

    Cashflow is the lifeblood of any business and if the system is unable to send an invoice this could have serious ramifications for Xero clients.

    I…

  8. Instead of the currently available [Week] option in the repeating invoice reference field, which only shows the week number of the year, for example '34', instead allow the option for custom text that includes the date. For example to enable the customer to understand that the invoice being sent is for work that was undertaken during week ending 18/08/2024, which you want to display as WE20240818, you could allow something like this in the reference field: 'WE[yyyymmdd]'. This mitigates the issue of customers having to work out the date that e.g. week '34' applies to when reconciling invoices in Xero…

  9. In the Sales overview screen, we can see the top 5 Customers owing the most. Is it possible to add an option to change this to the top 5 customers who have the highest overdue balance?

    Hi team, as mentioned in my last update this isn't available from the Sales overview at present. However if you select Send Statements you can view Overdue amounts high to low (Just click the Overdue column header to re-order). 😊

    While we'll continue to track interest of this here I want to be upfront that this isn't something we have plans for.

  10. The relocation of ‘edit’ on the drop down feature of options within invoicing.

    Reason being, it is far too close to ‘copy’ and on a couple of occasions whilst invoicing I have selected ’edit’ rather than ‘copy’ which has caused some cash flow issues and time explaining to clients where the issue has arisen.

    By simply separating them on the drop down would eliminate the accidental selection. Once selecting ‘edit’ or ‘copy’ the only difference is once changes invoice number and the other doesn’t.

  11. XERO To XERO - IMPORT NAME/ABN AND CONTACT ACROSS WITH INVOICE
    It would be helpful when a supplier who is also on Xero - sends us an invoice that their business contact details are also imported with the invoice. It would make it easier than going back and entering the Contact name , address and ABN numbers.

  12. Ability to add emojis to email templates.

    Currently, you are able to add the emojis when emailing individual invoices, but it is not possible to add the emojis to the email template.

    If you try to add an emoji to an email template, Xero will delete it after saving it.

    Appreciate the difference in what you're asking here, Christopher. 

    No plans to allowing inserting emoji's directly into the email template atm, but we'll track this here and let you know if there's any plans made.

  13. I would very much like to start using e-invoicing to send my invoices to clients. However, I bulk invoice (check in Draft / Approve / and then bulk email). So until it's possible to determine who can receive e-invoices, and to do that in a bulk action, I will need to stick with the old way. Sending 100s of invoices on one day of the month, it's just too slow to have to email them individually.

  14. Invoices - Please could we have an option for due date to calculate 45 after the invoice date and then end of the month? EG invoice date 1st May 26, due date is 1st May 26 plus 45 days = 14th June, EOM = 30th June (due date). This is a common way to calculate due date in Southern Europe. Thank you!

  18. Kia ora,

    I live and operate in New Zealand, where Xero was first created. With living in New Zealand, we use a lot of Māori words in our everyday lives.

    That said, I just created a quote for an upcoming photoshoot which is going to be held in a town in the Bay of Plenty called Ōmokoroa. But fortunately, the marcon that appears above the Ō turns into an L when the quote is exported. Can you please let the development team know about this issue please?

  19. When uploading photos to an invoice (on mobile which is what I have to use for invoicing), it only allows one upload at a time. Some invoices I am uploading up to 10-20 photos which adds a lot of time compared to if I could simply select all of the photos on camera roll.

    The ability to select multiple photos at once for uploading to invoices would be a huge time saver! Many clients/organisations require before and after photos of the work completed. I am sure many other Xero users would find incredible value in the option to select multiple…

  20. Include a tick box or similar to allow a customer accept some line items and reject others within a single quote. This is helpful for offering a choice of materials with different price points so the customer can choose how much they want to pay.

    Example -
    Line 1 - option 1 cost to build a path with high end materials eg paving
    Line 2 - option 2 cost to build a path with lower cost materials eg gravel
    The customer would select either line 1 or line 2, not both.

    Our quotes often have several options so at the…
