Sales Invoices - Sales Overview Screen
Please add a column that shows the Sales Representative name.
2 votesHi Jadé, when you say sales representative can I just check how is this information currently being entered in Xero? For example have you set up a tracking category to track the sales representative, or would you be wanting this information from the user that created the invoice? Will be helpful when sharing your feedback with the team.

Sales invoice - Choose where to save pdf when downloading
I would like to be able to 'print' or 'save' a pdf invoice to a folder of my choosing rather than to the default 'downloads'
Currently ALL downloaded items from the internet are placed in 'downloads' so I need to move the invoice pdf to my chosen folder. It would be a excellent time saver if I could choose my own folder to save to, and have it use this chosen folder each time.I believe it is a software bug to rely on the default settings of the users browser to determine where files are saved to.

Invoicing - Update contact with email used when sending
Under the old invoicing, when an invoice was emailed to a client for the first time, the email address used for that first invoice automatically populated the Contact card's email address at the time the invoice was sent.
This meant that if the invoice was unpaid, the reminder would be able to go to the same person who received the invoice.
However the new invoicing doesn't automatically populate the Contact's email address.
This means an extra step is needed to ensure the Contact card is updated.
If this step isn't taken, then the automated reminders don't go out.
Automation is…19 votesThanks for sharing your thoughts and adding your vote to this idea! We totally get how important it is to keep your customer contact info accurate and up to date. An automatic update feature through invoicing sounds like a great way to save you some valuable time.
Right now, if you send an invoice to an email that’s not already linked to a contact, you’ll need to add that email manually in Xero. The current setup is designed to be flexible so you can send invoices to multiple emails without changing the contact record. But we can definitely see how this feature would speed things up for you.
This idea is now in the “Gaining Support” phase, which means it’s open for votes and comments. We’re keeping an eye on how much interest it gets from the community. Your vote really helps us understand how much this feature matters to…

Invoicing - Add Expected Invoice Payment Date within Invoice
Can no longer add an expected payment date when viewing an invoice, you now have to go to the 'awaiting payment' section of invoices. Meaning more steps involved and lost functionality.

Invoicing - Create a Credit Note from a Paid invoice
We raise an invoice to a client.
They pay it.
Then for some reason, something changes.
We need to raise a credit note against that invoice!I know I can create a new one from scratch but I want the history with this particular invoice and all the other details that I have already typed into it.
What I DON'T want - is to delete the payment, create the credit note, delete the allocation of the credit to the invoice, then reapply the original payment.
It is not an option within Xero to 'copy to draft' and create a negative…
45 votesHi team, thank you for the detail in the flows you have when trading that create the need in being able to create a credit note from a paid invoice in Xero.
While this isn't a feature we have planned for development, it'll be good to keep tracking the interest from our community. We will share if there are any updates.

Invoices - Make invoice links available from invoice list
Quickly get invoice links from invoice list (instead of going into every individual invoice) to share in separate CRM so team can easily follow up outstanding invoices.

eInvoicing - Support for Italian business through SDI
For an Italian company. In order to send invoices to Italian clients, legally they MUST be sent through the Sistema di Interscambio (SDI), a government portal. Which helps prevent fraud and reduces tax evasion and increases visibility.
The e-invoicing is a specific format and Xero currently doesn't support.3 votesAppreciate you raising this request with us in Xero Product Ideas, Stuart. We'll start to get a wider interest from the community in this here. Please feel free to share this idea with other colleagues that would like to see that so we can get a better understanding of the demand.

Contacts | Email Address - Notify if a contact does not have an email address
We had a NEW customer that was added with no email address. This meant than when the invoice reminder email was meant to be sent the email didn't go. The system should alert you this field is empty as a lot of Xero communication is done through email.
The only way I noticed this was in the Sales > Invoices > Awaiting Payment list there was a small 'Email missing' message.
Would be better if this was in red letters to draw attention as there is currently no manual way to re-send the email that didn't go. (I have made…

Invoicing - Add ‘Clear All Quantities’ Option when copying
When copying an invoice, users can now edit the copied version, and all information from the original invoice automatically carries over. To make this process more efficient, it would be helpful to add a “Clear All” button for the quantity column. This would allow users to reset all quantities at once instead of having to manually change each line item to zero before entering new quantities.
2 votesThanks for reaching out with this suggestion 🙂 I can see how being able to copy an invoice or bill to a draft and then clear all quantities in one go could make this workflow much quicker and easier.
At this stage, we don’t have a confirmed timeline or feature announcement to share for that specific functionality. What I can confirm is that this has now been moved to gaining support.
While it isn’t a confirmation that the feature will be developed, it does help show there is customer demand for it.
For now, quantities would still need to be adjusted manually after copying, but we do appreciate you taking the time to raise this

Sales Invoices | Awaiting Payment List - Show contact Email in the column
We import our data for invoicing and only the customer name/contact is in the file. When emailing out the invoices after import, we use the "Awaiting Payment" screen but unable to see if there any new customers so we have to review the "Statements" tab beforehand. This will save time and effiencies within our company.
Perhaps, the screen columns we are all wanting could be added but with a X box so columns could be hidden if not needed, therefore collating a few thoughts at once ?

Multi-currency Invoice - Do not update exchange rate on invoice after due date has been changed
Currently, when you raise an invoice in a foreign currency it will take the exchange rate as of that hour. If you later change the due date of the invoice, the exchange rate used to convert will change from the hour you raised the invoice, to the closing exchange rate on that day. This causes an issue for reporting where we have reported a revenue figure for a previous month. The invoice on a due date has been changed and therefore the revenue recognised in a previous month has changed. This makes our reports incorrect and could cause issues if…

Invoice - View full reference in Xero
Not a massive one, but would eliminate a really annoying thing.
On an invoice screen in the reference box, when typing any data that exceeds the box, the text doesn't follow outside that window. This then makes you mouse click into that box and arrow across to confirm what you have typed was in actual fact correct.
PLEASE, can something be done about this????3 votesAppreciate you raising this idea with us, Darren and have just updated the forum it's in 🙂
We'll get a sense of the community interesst in this here. While we don't have any plans around this at present I'll share if there's any news.

Projects - Create a Sales Credit Note from Projects
Whilst purchase credit notes can be assigned to Projects, a Sales Credit Note can't be raised from Projects in the same way that a Sales Invoice can from Tasks and Expenses. Anegative invoice can't be created - the error message "The invoice total cannot be less than zero." appears.
Therefore, Sales Credit notes don't automatically link to Project costs and get marked as "invoiced".
This direct linking needs to be added.

New invoicing - When sending show organisation's trading name at top of invoice
The email template has changed which accompanies the invoice to the customer. We have a legal name plus a trading as name which people know us by. Currently the legal name is showing up boldly at the top of the email which it didn't before. We would like the trading name to be in this place so as not to cause confusion to our customers, or have the ability to remove it entirely as it has the logo there displaying the correct name.
237 votesHi community, we really appreciate your feedback on this and hearing why you'd like to be able to change the organisation's name that's shown when sending invoices from Xero.
This is on our teams radar, and is something they may look into longer term however we want to be open that it's not in the current roadmap.
We'll continue to track and keep across the interest from our community, and if there's any news to share we'll update you on this, here.

Repeating Bills- Remove Archived Product Codes from Repeating Templates
I have seen there is already a thread for this in Repeating Bills, but we recently streamlined our product codes and archived the old ones.
However, Xero is still showing all the achieved codes when you create or update a repeating! This does not happen with raising normal invoices. I can see this causing errors in the future and am surprised at the oversight by Xero.

Invoice - Quick edit option (like bills)
Invoice payments
Can we have a function in invoicing to record a payment the same as the new 'eye' function on bills (screenshot attached)? Would make life a lot easier as adding multiple payments to an invoice currently involves way too many clicks!8 votesHi team, returning to the idea here I wanted to share an update. While we don't have quick edit for in voices atm, we have made an update to the Make a payment section of the invoice which will reduce a couple of extra clicks here. Rather than clicking a button on the invoice to open the payment section, you'll find that each invoice now has the make a payment section directly beneath an approved invoice.
We appreciate this doesn't fully resole this idea and will continue to keep a watchful eye on the interest, and share if there is any news of this here. Thanks

Invoice reminders - Create a criteria to set based on reconciliation date
It would be an easy fix to stop automatically sending reminders for "unpaid" invoices when the business has not done their reconciliation for the relevant period. We find it stressful and time consuming to check all the time. I think sending a payment demand with the proviso to "ignore it if it has already been paid" is a waste of resources. It would be way less stressful and more efficient if reminders could be pending and only be sent automatically once the reconciliation covering the due date has been completed.
3 votesInteresting idea, Marc. This would add another layer of complexity to reminders, but it would be great to understand the interest around this from your idea here for our product team to consider. We'll share if there are any updates.

Repeating Invoices - Ability to add billable items
It would be really useful to have the option to add one-time billable items to a repeating invoice and set them to be included on the next invoice automatically. For businesses that charge a fixed monthly retainer but occasionally add extra services, this would save time and reduce the risk of forgetting additional charges. The item could sit in a pending list against the customer and then be pulled through automatically alongside the standard repeating invoice when it is next raised.
2 votesThanks so much for taking the time to share this idea with us. We’ve moved this idea into the “Gaining support” stage so that others can find it more easily, add their comments, and vote if they’d find it useful too. While we can’t promise if or when it will be picked up, the level of support and real‑world examples from customers like you play an important part in how we prioritise future improvements.
Thanks again for helping us shape what we work on next.
