Sales Invoice | Delivery address - Update for individual invoice
Delivery Address:
To have the ability to add a delivery address when raising an invoice that can be printed onto the invoice. This would need to permanently save the delivery address to that invoice. When a new invoice to the same customer is raised then have the ability to enter another delivery address if required without effecting the previous invoice delivery address.

Hi community, we appreciate the comments about your needs in this idea.
We get the importance of being able to set a delivery address for an individual invoice and have that address remain tied to that invoice, without overwriting the delivery details on past invoices or changing the default details for the contact.
With a clear understanding of the risks in altering historical invoice delivery details and delving into the wide range of workflows this feature would support, we want you to know this is something we’re looking to solve.
We have a larger project around being able to support multiple addresses per contact in invoicing, and as part of this we’ll be enabling the ability to update delivery address details on an invoice-by-invoice basis.
There are few steps for us to get through before we can deliver and get this in your hands but I’ll be sure to share more news as we can here. Thanks!

Thank you for your response Kelly
Unfortunately there is no field to amend an address while creating an invoice.
This would mean going into the contact every time and changing the address over and over before raising an invoice. Not a practical solution. And would the address change when re-printing an invoice in that case?
So at this stage I am unable to use Xero for my tradie clients with various once off customers. A 'site' field or 'delivery address' field on the invoice would help. Something for your developers to contemplate.

Different 'shipping' or 'site' address on individual cash sale invoices. Eg for numerous cash sale customers invoiced once off by a tradie. Could be 6-8 a day. Use a single Miscellaneous customer file and change name/address on each invoice instead of having to create a new customer for every once off invoice.
Also being able to report on site addresses on invoices to export to Google maps for pinning customer locations for marketing purposes.
