Invoice - Ability to rearrange invoice columns
When using the invoicing system in Xero, there is no ability to move columns around. It would make my workflow much easier if I could enter quantity first, followed by product code, as this matches the standard ordering format in our industry. When customers place orders, they typically specify the quantity first and then the product size or code.
In our previous system, we were able to click and drag columns into any order (similar to how line items can currently be rearranged in Xero). However, with the current fixed column layout in Xero, I often find myself writing phone orders down on paper before entering them into the system, which is very time-consuming.
Hi Scott and Janine, thanks for sharing your feedback here.
We understand why having the ability to customise invoice column order could make invoicing workflows easier, especially for teams that process a lot of invoices or follow a specific data entry process.
This idea is suggesting the ability to rearrange invoice columns directly within the invoice screen, allowing businesses to set up the layout in a way that better suits their workflow.
We’ll continue to track feedback and interest around more flexible invoice layouts.
