Hi team, discovery went well and has provided good insights to our product team. Things have now moved along and I can share that we're working on a solution that'll enable you to schedule when an invoice is sent, and the ability to cancel a scheduled send if needed. 🙂

In early stages right now, but I'll share more news as this progresses. Thanks!

    This would be an extremely valuable feature within Xero for our business.

    We had the same problem, now we have an awesome team of Virtual Assistants who send out all our invoices on the date we want them sent. We tried the external app recommended but it didn't work. This is the best way. Contact me at Virtual Assistants Australia if you'd like more info.

    Can't believe this still hasn't been solved - Xero is great for a small business until you realise you need to have full time accounts person to click send on the invoices!

  • Carly Ward commented  ·   ·  Report

    Was this really suggested TEN YEARS AGO and still nothing?

  • Louise Darby commented  ·   ·  Report

    Come on Xero, this is basic, we all work evenings / weekends to do invoicing, but we don’t want invoices going out at 11pm on a Sunday! Basic

  • Taylor Greene commented  ·   ·  Report

    This is the last critical piece to sending worry free invoices.

  • Cathy Klouwens commented  ·   ·  Report

    Yes I agree as feel like this is a basic and vital user function that is currently missing and would appreciate feedback on where this is at from the Xero team please.

  • Amelia Lee commented  ·   ·  Report

    Please enhance and execute this feature as make things easier

  • Joe Pettican commented  ·   ·  Report

    Would majorly improve efficiency, seems like a very basic function is missing!

  • Cathy Klouwens commented  ·   ·  Report

    The ability to schedule one off invoices would absolutely be a game changer to increase the efficiency of our team. Currently we have to make a note to go back and send the invoice on the date we would like to - not very efficient for our work flow and there is room for error in this method.

    Some clients check their e-mail at night some dont.
    When I create an invoice late at night I want to send it so I dont forget, but I may not want my clients to know I am working and sending e-mails late at night.
    So Delay send unill 8 AM would be a critical feature.

  • Fiona Brownlee commented  ·   ·  Report

    To be able to schedule a one off invoice to go at a certain date in the future that is not a repeating invoice.

  • Catherine Carvel commented  ·   ·  Report

    This would be a really helpful feature - please can it be introduced

  • Nadia Gallen commented  ·   ·  Report

    would love this feature. Any progress on this since 2012. come on guys. help us out.

  • Paul Cowling commented  ·   ·  Report

    This feature should be standard.
    I would like to see this implemented asap so that I can raise invoices that will be sent to my clients on the date as stipulated in our service agreement/s.
    We use the repeat-invoicing feature for static billing, but for dynamic services, require this feature so that I am not sat building invoices on a weekend when the dates fall that way.

  • Annie Romanos commented  ·   ·  Report

    Notice this idea was flagged in 2012. Any progress a decade on? This is a fairly standard capability in most apps these days.....
