It seems ridiculous to have the option to attach backup document and 'Upload to online invoice' but not actually send the backup to the to the client.
Surely most businesses require some sort of backup document to justify the invoiced charges? All of our invoicing requires backup documentation to be attached, so we are using a third-party platform to merge, save and then email.
If Xero had this merge and send function, it would make this task much more time efficient for our business.

10 years & still no progress on this?

Currently, you have to 'print' the invoice and combine it with the backup files using a third-party app. Then save it to your computer and email it to the customer.

Say this process only takes 3 minutes (often longer); that adds up to 2 entire hours for 40 invoices.

Option to combine a sales invoice and its attached files into one PDF when emailing to customers - rather than attaching files as several separate files.

I'm having to use PDF24 (the offline version) to do this as a client has asked for it... such a waste of time for something that should be a built in option.

I've just had a request from a client's customer (to whom I currently send around 100 invoices every month) to combine invoice and supporting documentation into one pdf.

Currently, I cannot do that without sending the invoice to myself, using a paid service to merge the files, and then forwarding. If I merge invoice and supporting documentation, attach the merged file to the invoice, and then send direct from Xero, it will attach another copy of the invoice as a second attachment anyway. This is a whole bunch of wasted time for a process that could and should be automated.

More and more customers are using automated AP systems to manage their payments.

These automated systems generally allow only 1 pdf per file. Therefore, they either don't pick up the invoice or ignore the work order, which is proof of work completed. This causes many invoice rejections.

We may have to change accounting suppliers due to this.

Is this implemented yet?

Lots of clients requesting invoices and other documents combined as one PDF. Would be super useful

My client , Interior Designer, need it too!!

Yes please, this would be perticualy handy for quotes. the ability to bundle drawings and other information into the one documant. I have been merging PDF's with invoices and quotes externaly, then emailing them on.

Vital for one particular client

This essential in sending detailed invoicing to my vendors.

It would be of great importance to have it in 1 PDF-file.

Think about AP processes for customers that use Oracle financials or similar. The attachment gets dropped (same as Xero when processing email bills!) and renders it useless.

I support this idea as we have had customers requesting this.

This would be fantastic, I have a client on MYOB who I could move over if this is an option in Xero. It would be worth re-training the staff to streamline their processes.

yes please this would be great , as many client would love to have one attachment rather than multiple documents

Some of our customers do require this.
