tag
Hi,
I'd like to suggest a new feature: the ability to add a custom tag to invoices directly from the invoice screen, pulled from a customisable list — similar to how Tracking Categories are set up in settings.
Once applied, the tag would be visible in the Invoice List view, in the same way "Auto pay offered" is currently displayed for repeating invoices under the Repeating tab (see attached example). This would let us flag invoices for reasons such as being under dispute, subject to a query, or requiring follow-up, without needing to dig into each transaction individually and look at notes.
It would also be great to have the same functionality available on the Bills screen, so we can tag bills for similar reasons (e.g. "on hold," "under query") to help prevent them from being paid in error.
Thanks for considering this — I think it would be a genuinely useful addition for anyone managing higher volumes of invoices and bills and something that we consider a critically important and urgent need in the platform for our businesses.
Thanks for submitting your idea on Xero Product Ideas. We appreciate you taking time to let us know how we could improve Xero for you.
