Invoicing - Show the credit note numbers that are applied on invoice PDF
Display the Credit Note/s applied to an invoice and payments made by date on a PDF document. Why is it that we can view these in the system but we cannot see this when printing invoices.
It would be so helpful to have this for clients to view exactly what they have paid and exactly what credit notes have been applied to an invoice.If it is already on the systems for us to see, is it that hard to reflect this on the printed /emailed versions of invoices?
please address this Xero!

Invoicing - Customize PDF file name to include contact name
Update invoice file names to include both the invoice number and recipient name? For example: “SI-1055 John Smith” instead of just “SI-1055” — so it’s easier to identify when printing or saving documents.

e-Invoicing - Verifactu support for compliance with Spanish tax agency
Verifactu is a mandatory invoice verification system in Spain, introduced by the Anti-Fraud Law, which seeks to increase transparency and tax control by automatically sending invoicing records to the Tax Agency (AEAT) in real time to prevent fraud. Supported invoicing programs must ensure the integrity, traceability and preservation of invoices, and include a QR code and the mention "Veri*Factu" in the document. Implementation is progressing, with the use of adapted software mandatory for taxpayers from July 2026.

Invoices - Email | Remove '' View Online'' option
We’re happy with the new edit template invoicing experience, but would like full control over what appears on PDF invoices, specifically the ability to remove the “View Online” button.
Many invoices are printed or saved for offline use, where web links don’t make sense and can look unprofessional. For some businesses and customers, digital links on formal invoice documents are unnecessary or confusing.
Suggested solution:
Add a simple setting or template option to enable/disable the “View Online” button on PDF invoices, so businesses can choose what works best for them.Since it is our business, we need to have more…

Invoicing - Add Number of Days Overdue to Send Statements screen
On the "Send Statements" page...
The address is not needed as the customer can be identified by their name or account number, and 99.9% of statements are now emailed anyway. Removing this would allow space for the two pieces of information that are necessary when individually chasing overdue payaments, plus one extra useful number... The date of the invoice, the date payment was/is due, and the number of days overdue.
This could then be easily referenced when personalising the pop-up email box .... e.g. Your payment was due 30/11 and is now 35 days overdue. Please make the payment as…
54 votesHi Roger, thanks for the feedback on this idea. it’s clear that seeing the number of days overdue directly on the Send Statements screen would make it easier to prioritise follow-ups without interrupting your workflow.
At the moment, the Date and Due Date of each outstanding invoice are already displayed on the Send Statement screen, but having the actual days overdue visible would give immediate context and help you act faster when sending statements.
We have now move this idea to Gaining Support, which means it’s open for votes and comments. Hearing from the community will help our product teams understand how much value this visibility would add across different workflows.

E-invoicing - United Arab Emirates
E-Invoicing in the UAE.
This will soon be a requirement in the UAE with legislation to be passed on this.
Please can we as Xero users have a standard process template for this.53 votesHi Faadhilah, thanks for raising the idea about introducing e-invoicing specifically for the UAE. With the government’s timelines and deadlines coming up, we understand how important it is for businesses there to have a streamlined way to comply.
Xero already supports e-invoicing in other regions where this has become a regulatory requirement. While we can’t share any definite plans about when or if this will be available in the UAE just yet, your idea status is currently Gaining support. This status means the community team has reviewed it, and now it’s open for votes and comments from users like you.
Getting more votes and detailed feedback from the community helps bring attention to the demand and shows the product team where to focus next. If you haven’t already, adding more context about how e-invoicing would affect your business day to day would be really valuable. The more insights the team…

Sales Invoice - Select and send multiple invoices on a single email
Send multiple invoices together on one email to the same customer with one 'pay now' button (e.g. for Stripe payment) rather than sending multiple emails which seem like spam to clients !
53 votesHi community, there isn't currently the ability to select and choose which invoices you'd like to bundle and send together. However, we recently released the ability to include an online statement link when sending Outstanding statements to your customer which may solve for some of the needs here.
If you've set up Stripe as a payment service the customer can select and choose which invoices to pay from the online statement - Find out more in Xero Central.

Sales Invoice | Expected Dates - Bulk Update
The "Planned Dates" feature in Bills to Pay works extremely well. Key element is that you can bulk update dates as required from a multiple selection.
The "Expected Date" feature has the same potential but also needs to be able to update invoice "Expected Dates" in bulk.
Invoices cannot be updated in bulk from Short Term Cashflow if a part-payment has been made against that invoice. Also, you can't update invoices Expected dates if they are not due yet.
52 votesHi everyone, we're continuing to keep an eye on the interest this idea's received however at this time want to be upfront that bulk update of Expected dates for invoices isn't on the roadmap.
Just to highlight for those that have more recently joined in here - You can currently bulk add expected dates to invoices within Short-term cash flows, however as noted here you can't add dates to invoices or bills that are partially paid, have credit notes applied or are dated within a locked period.
We'll continue to track the interest for this idea and share if there's any change planned.

Quotes - Remove Deleted Quotes from the All list
Quotes that have been Deleted are marked as Deleted but continue to be displayed in the Sales Overviews. There is no need to continue to display deleted items in the Overviews. They should be removed.
50 votesHi team, in the aim of transparency we have split this idea out from the original one here so we can get a better understanding of the interest for this change in each area of Xero.
Being quite different features within Xero it's not likely that a change in one would be reflected in the other area at the same time. We will continue to track interest in removing quotes from the all list here and share if there are any updates.

Invoicing - Paste Multiple Cells into Invoice Lines
Why can’t Xero do basic spreadsheet-style paste???
This is honestly ridiculous: in 2026, Xero still can’t handle basic multi-cell paste like every normal grid on the web.
Everyone uses Excel, Google Sheets, Airtable. We copy blocks of rows and columns all day. In Xero, the same paste either dumps into one field or doesn’t work, so we’re forced into CSV import or manual entry. That is a massive waste of time for something that should be a baseline feature.
There is no technical excuse here. Airtable/Sheets don’t do anything magical. In a browser, multi-cell paste is just:
Clipboard text in…
48 votesHi Nic, thanks for sharing this idea. We can see how helpful it would be to paste invoice details straight from a spreadsheet. It'd make the process faster and easier, especially for longer invoices.
For now, one option is to use the Import feature. By pasting your spreadsheet data into Xero’s CSV template and uploading it, you can create invoices in bulk. It’s not quite direct copy-paste, but it’s a quicker way to handle larger invoices.
We’ve moved this idea to Gaining Support to understand how many of you would find this useful. If you can, let us know what tool you’re copying from and which columns you’d most want to include, your feedback will help guide what we look at next.

Quotes - Preview option
Ability to have preview options for quotes
Purpose: To make sure that quotes can be printed nicely.
47 votesHi everyone, we value your input and sharing with us on your needs here.
While not a direct preview button we have provided the ability to 'Get link' from the 3 dot menu in quotes - in the same manner as invoices this will provide you a unique link that you can use to share externally, or open in a new browser tab to preview the quote.
Though not a direct solve for what has been asked in this idea, this was another highly sought after request raised by community.
We believe this option will meet the needs of some on this idea too, but will also continue to track the interest for a Preview option for future consideration. 🙏

Short Term Cashflow - Combine existing invoices with predictions for future invoices
When viewing the 90-day short-term cash flow projection, payments from our on-site shop show 90 days of predicted income. However, for customers with existing invoices in the system, only those invoices are displayed.
The issue arises when customers have only 30 or 60 days of invoices, causing a drop-off in the cash projection after 60 days.
Proposed Solution:
- Combine existing invoices in Xero with predictions for future invoices.
- Automatically remove these predictions when an actual invoice is entered into the system.
41 votesHi Community!👋 Thanks for your suggestion to improve the short-term cash flow projection. We're grateful for your engagement.
We've reviewed the idea, and it can now gain support from other community members.
Along with votes, others can now comment to share additional detail about how this clearer view of cash flow could improve their experience with Xero.

Invoices - Bulk send receipts for paid invoices
If you receive a lot of payments on the same day (20th of the months) would be useful to select the paid invoices all at once and send the receipt to all clients at the same time rather than have to open every single transaction and send the receipts individually
Alternatively could be a feature on invoices were you choose to send receipt automatically upon payment received.
41 votesHi team, we appreciate there is some interest in this idea, however at this time we don't have any plans for enabling bulk send of receipts.
For now, we'll continue to track the support in this idea. I'll share if there are any updates.

Stripe - Pass full fee amount to customer
For volume based businesses, we lose money (30c per transaction) on the stripe fee we pay vs what we can pass onto the customer (because there's no option currently to just pass on the full fee, just a %). That % can't legally be higher than what we are charged, and we can't add the 30c fee to the % anywhere in settings. When we're processing 1,000 transactions per month, we lose $300 to fees. For a small business, this isn't justifiable. Most small businesses that have high volumes are low cost, so they rely on volume of sales to…
39 votesHi team, we appreciate the interest and feedback around surcharging. While this is something our product teams reviewed we want to be open that this isn't something we have plans for developing at this time.
For now, surcharging will continue to be a % fee with no flat rate fee option.
We're continuing to watch the support for this here and will share if there are any updates.

Invoicing - Create a Credit Note from a Paid invoice
We raise an invoice to a client.
They pay it.
Then for some reason, something changes.
We need to raise a credit note against that invoice!I know I can create a new one from scratch but I want the history with this particular invoice and all the other details that I have already typed into it.
What I DON'T want - is to delete the payment, create the credit note, delete the allocation of the credit to the invoice, then reapply the original payment.
It is not an option within Xero to 'copy to draft' and create a negative…
37 votesHi team, thank you for the detail in the flows you have when trading that create the need in being able to create a credit note from a paid invoice in Xero.
While this isn't a feature we have planned for development, it'll be good to keep tracking the interest from our community. We will share if there are any updates.

eInvoicing - Bulk approve & send
I hope xero has the functionality of e-invoicing to approve and send the multiple e-invoices in bulk.
As this new invoicing does not allow it and make the task slower than the conventional xero way.
I hope you'll add this suggestion on your product improvement and see xero functioning the next time around.36 votesHi everyone, we appreciate the interest in being able to bulk approve and send einvoices from Xero.
This is something our product team will consider in future planning however isn't on the roadmap right now, please do make sure you've added your vote and share any additional detail that may help in the teams review.
We'll continue to track interest here and share if any plans are made.

Quotes: Hide line item cost
When we create quotes we do not want the individual cost to be sent to the client as we may increase or decrease price depending on actual needs. Therefore I would like to send a quote with all the products/services itemized but not individual cost just a TOTAL?
30 votesHi team, thank you for sharing how this feature could improve your use of Quotes in Xero.
While it takes a little work in setup, you could currently use an advanced branding theme and make changes to the docx template to remove fields you don't want shown to the customer.
Being open this isn't something we have direct plans for developing right now, however we'll continue to track the appetite her and share if there are any updates.
