I agree having the system leave an invoice once a payment is added is a nonsensical workflow! It's especially annoying when you have the client standing in front of you and need to return to the invoice to print or email them a copy.

When depositing payment for a sales invoice, have a shortcut button to "Deposit Another Invoice" so you don't have to go to Invoices > Awaiting Payment manually again.

After a payment is added to an invoice, can the invoice please stay open on the screen.
The green box sometimes disappears and have to search for the invoice again in a different section (or clients do not read the text in the green box and complain the invoice has disappeared

Oh god this would have been so useful when doing a huge monthly sales invoice on this cleanup job we did!

Invoicing - Add Payment- It would be nice to be able to split a payment if a customer pays a portion via two different payment methods. i.e if a customer pays part of the invoice in cash and the balance of the invoice by card.

I have clients who have 1 large monthly sales invoice, but can have up to 20 payments against it. Currently, you can only enter 1 payment at a time, and then have to save, close and go back into the invoice to set up the next payment.
I would like to be able to save a payment and click "add another payment to this invoice" and just keep moving through it, to limit the number of clicks and be more efficient.

This would be a great time saver for companies. Please

How about allowing edits to invoice without removing a payment. Sometimes wrong items are selected or they change their mind. Would be nice to be able to modify the invoice without unaplying payment, updating and reaplying.

Will it be possible to have an enhancement/update on Xero Invoices and Bills that will enable different payment method allocation at once. Saves time on having to apply and close the invoice and allocate then redo for a different payment method (Eg. partial payment via Cash, EFTPOS and other payment methods such as GE and Certegy) . Probably a different payment field option that can be added on the invoice to enable this.

Two years and XERO still haven't made this an option? But hey - as long as they can still justify massive increases in subscription fees by bringing out features we don't need then all is good for the developers KPIs!

Please 🙏

Please Xero, this is really important. So much time is wasted have to go back to the start again

This is very much needed! I use the invoice section for daily sales, and need to apply multiple tenders to the balance (cash, credit cards, gift cards, house account). It would be easier if it stayed on the same page and didn't redirect to the list of open invoices.

Currently after adding a payment, the page goes to the Sales Overview - Invoices. It would be good if (possibly just as an option) it returned to the actual invoice I was adding a payment to.

This would be awesome for both bills and invoices.

Being able to multiple payments to an invoice on the same screen would be extremely helpful. I also have to apply payments for cash, EFTPOS, customer accounts etc to the same invoice so be able to do that without having to go in and out of the invoice would save SOOO much time.

These are the sort of things that need attention, much more important than how pretty Xero looks.

We deal with a lot of cash invoicing. (Ebay/web etc)
We create an invoice and then mark it as paid straight away.
Then print it , then email it to the customer.

Once the invoice is paid, please can you leave it on the invoice screen instead of closing it down and taking it back to Business Invoices section.

We have to click on it again to open it up to print it and email it. Should be an easy fix in Classic invoicing.

I do not use the "new invoicing" screen as it is not set up for manually entering 30+ invoices a day, takes too long (have to use the mouse too much)

Thanks

I agree!
I enter invoices and payments at the same time. I find it frustrating, when you have entered a payment, it takes you out of the invoicing screen completely and you have to enter it again to print the invoice and email it.

I'm guessing this is an easy fix.

Ability for a customer who has multiple bills outstanding with you to pay them all in one bulk card payment.

At the moment any customer with multiple bills outstanding needs to pay each bill individually if using a debit or credit card.

One idea for this could be to send a customer statement with the full amount outstanding and a Pay Now button which would trigger the full amount to populate in the card details screen.

Post a payment against multiple bills. At the moment if a receipt comes in from a client I can select multiple invoices and apply a deposit. However if I pay a batch of invoices for a supplier I can't do the same, as if I select multiple bills I can only make a payment, but we don't have the bank linked to pay out of, I just want to record the payment against the invoices.
