New invoicing - Use '.' as separators in the date field
New invoicing - ability to type "." between numbers (like you can in bills) i.e 24.6 then becomes 24 June after you press Tab.
Right now it only seems to accept 24/6, but I'm sure you used to be able to type 24.6 Tab and then it would convert to the date. If you use "." now, it will default to todays date
31 votesUnderstand our customers have different habits when entering dates, Emily. Atm you can use '-' or '/' to separate n umbers in your dates, however as you've found '.' isn't an option. We'll begin gathering interest in this here, and I'll share if there are any updates planned.

Invoicing | Tracking - don't override with contact default when copying invoice
Kelly, the procedure to copy an invoice was improved, but it is still erroneous. We have tracking category (department) recorded in customer's settings. But for some customers we issue invoices with the other department tracking category.
New invoicing does not copy that "other" category. When the invoice is copied, all customer's default settings applied to it. In my particular case, it is wrong. I do not want customer's default tracking category; I want a copy of the INVOICE with the correct tracking category. In short, the new invoice is to be an EXACT copy.
Classic invoicing did not have this…

Branding - Additional reference fields for sales invoices
Allow users to enable additional, custom reference fields.
Please add the ability to enable additional, custom reference fields on sales invoices via the 'Edit Branding Theme' screen, to support business in the motor industry.
These fields would allow invoice issuers to record vehicle specific details such as:
- Make / Model
- Registration
- Colour or MileageCurrently Xero invoice only support a single entry reference field, and so users at present must rely on line descriptions or notes, which are inconsistent, unclear for customers, and increase queries and disputes. Competing software such as Quickbooks already support these additional invoice…

description / work carried out box
Please add a description box so that we can add additional information about the reason for the invoice. Being a garage we have to add description of car repairs carried out in the item line. Even if we could go right along the page with the text it would help a lot. At the moment invoices look messy and take up a lot of the page.

unmarked sent
Invoices are being automatically "Unmarked Sent" even after manually marking as sent. This defeats the purpose of having notifications/reminders for clients. This needs fixing ASAP.

Invoice Reminder - Templates to apply to specific customers
Invoice reminders are currently "all or nothing". I dont want to chase my good clients with automated messages from Xero becuse it upsets them but I do want some of my clients to have auto reminders about invoices about to become due and invoices overdue, those who generally are bad payers. In the same way we have email and invoice templates can we have invoice reminder templates and when we raise an invoice be prompted to apply a reminder template (or not). Or can the template for reminders be part of the customer financial details, in the way we can…

Repeating Invoices - Ability to bulk update repeating invoices
Repeating Invoices - Ability to bulk update repeating invoices.
We provide a subscription service which some of the 470+ customers have been using for years.
At times we make changes to T&Cs, the wording, rates, payment services etc. and it would be extremely times shaving if we could do bulk changes i.e. change the Item, Due Date, Reference, Payment Services etc, without having to go into each repeating invoice individually.

title of quote to be transferred onto invoice but furthermore title to be available in invoice list as it is with quotes......
This has already been put forward, voted for and declined by admin however all the comments I can see refer to the client not being able to see descriptions - I want to use Xero as my sole place for organising, quoting and invoicing however we do a lot of repeat custom for several clients and may invoice them 20-30 jobs per calendar month, all we get in the invoice list is the invoice number which unless I keep a separate ledger or spreadsheet doesn't tell me what the work is for...... if I need to reference a specific job…

Option to delete invoices more than 6 years past
Under GDPR, customer data can only be kept for a reasonable period of time.
In the UK, businesses must keep tax records for at least five years from 31 January following the end of the relevant tax year. In practice, this means records need to be retained for 5 years and 10 months.
Your GDPR policy can therefore state that records will be kept for 5 years and 10 months. After this period, continuing to store invoices (for example, in Xero) could put you in breach of GDPR.
To help businesses stay compliant, Xero could offer an optional feature that…

Sales Order Entry
We switched over from QB and were told it would be so much better but come to find out there is no sales order feature and we are in shambles trying to find a workaround. I highly suggest XERO creates this feature to keep up with current programs and workflows.

Receipt - Show full amount paid including overpayment
When a customer overpays an invoice the receipt does not show the full amount received, only the amount allocated to the Invoice. Can you please allow full amount paid to be on the receipt!

everytime i update a price shange in an invoice, it should automatically update the price in the inventory system.
Every time i send an invoice, I update the new pricing for an inventory item in the invoice. This is manual but it should then automatically update the inventory price as well. so in short, the inventory should be following the latest invoice pricing to keep up to date.

Invoicing - Add Expected Invoice Payment Date within Invoice
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.

Sales Invoice - Ability to enter new contact first/last name from an invoice
When adding a new contcat from within an invoice, it would be useful to be able to add the contact first/last name. Currently you can only add the business name, email, phone number and addresses. That means unless you open up the new contact in a separate page to add in the contact first/last name (which is time consuming), then when the invoice is completed the email cant be addressed to the person's name. Would be much simpler to have first/last name field within the new contact section of the invoice.
15 votesHi Lee, just to make sure I've got this right - When you say you'd like to add the contact first and last name this would be for the person on the Contact record?

Selecting different bank accounts when invoicing to customers
Xero users need more flexibility when choosing which bank accounts customers must pay in. Majority companies have more than 1 bank account, but there is no easy way to specify per invoice which bank account the customer must pay in besides changing the company settings back and forth. Give Xero users the option when invoicing to select via a drop down (for example) which business account this customer must pay in.

sales order facility
Xero needs a sales order function.
Not just an invoice or quote function.
A main order function that you can print an invoice, packing slip etc from.
Right now we have to Approve an invoice (and not send it) to get a packing slip. Then manually change the packing slip to reflect what has actually been sent and what is on back order.
When you approve an invoice, it automatically shows up on the customer statements which has given us headaches for customers who require a monthly statement. We prefer not to invoice until stock has been sent.Having a…

New invoicing - When sending show organisation's trading name at top of invoice
The email template has changed which accompanies the invoice to the customer. We have a legal name plus a trading as name which people know us by. Currently the legal name is showing up boldly at the top of the email which it didn't before. We would like the trading name to be in this place so as not to cause confusion to our customers, or have the ability to remove it entirely as it has the logo there displaying the correct name.
218 votesHi community, we really appreciate your feedback on this and hearing why you'd like to be able to change the organisation's name that's shown when sending invoices from Xero.
This is on our teams radar, and is something they may look into longer term however we want to be open that it's not in the current roadmap.
We'll continue to track and keep across the interest from our community, and if there's any news to share we'll update you on this, here.

Allocate invoice payment to multiple accounts
The Problem:
When a customer pays more than the invoice total due to tips or card surcharges, Xero’s Add Payment screen forces any amount over the invoice total to be treated as an overpayment/credit, not as intentional extra income. This prevents me from allocating the excess directly to specific income accounts (e.g., Qualified Tips or Card Processing Fee Income) at the time of payment. As a result, I have to use multi‑step workarounds (separate Receive Money and Spend Money entries, later adjustments once bank feeds arrive) just to reflect a single real‑world payment event: invoice amount + tip/surcharge − merchant…2 votesThanks for submitting your idea on Xero Product Ideas.

Once off clients
In working with a client who uses Xero as their invoicing system, we’ve identified a practical workflow gap that may affect many small manufacturers and custom-service businesses.
The business does not operate a traditional point-of-sale system. Instead, they produce custom, made-to-order items such as signage and magnets for walk-in customers.
These transactions typically involve:
once-off customers
minimal customer details
immediate payment on collection
no expectation of repeat business
The business must provide proof of payment at handover while maintaining proper accounting records.
With increasing compliance expectations and the move toward e-invoicing, a streamlined method to issue a once-off invoice or…
