Product Enhancement Suggestion – Mapping II/PO Line Numbers for B2G E-Invoices to Singapore Government Agencies
Dear Xero Team,
We would like to suggest a product enhancement regarding the submission of Business-to-Government (B2G) e-invoices to Singapore government agencies.
For e-invoices submitted to Singapore government agencies and billed against an Invoicing Instruction (II) or Purchase Order (PO), the corresponding II/PO line number must be included in the e-invoice data to enable exact line-level matching with the corresponding II/PO.
At present, Xero does not support mapping the original II/PO line numbers in the manner required for this scenario. We understand that Xero is reviewing an enhancement to support the mapping of the original Invoicing Instruction (II) or Purchase Order (PO) line numbers for invoices submitted to Singapore government agencies.
I came across an online PDF User Guide titled "Sending E-Invoices to AGD (B2G)". On Page 22, it states that for e-invoices billed against an Invoicing Instruction (II) or Purchase Order (PO), the line numbers on the e-invoice must match those on the corresponding II/PO.
I have included the link to the PDF User Guide below for the Xero team to review as a reference and product enhancement suggestion:

We hope this reference will provide further clarification on the requirement and assist Xero in expediting the development of this functionality.
We would greatly appreciate it if Xero could prioritise this enhancement, as the current limitation is affecting our ability to complete our B2G e-invoice submission process to Singapore government agencies.
If possible, please also let us know the expected timeline for this enhancement, as this functionality is important for us to complete our e-invoice submission process.
Thank you for your consideration. We look forward to your feedback and update.
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.
