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.

Invoices - routing back to the invoices page after sending a remittance
When processing a number of customer remittance advices, it would be very useful to have a button to get you straight back to sales invoices awaiting payments list. Currently, when finalising a deposit, the system takes to the bank account that you have selected for the deposit. You then have to go back to Sales>Invoices>Awaiting Payment which the system does lag in loading.

New Invoicing - Consolidated invoice process voiding the original invoices automatically
Consolidated invoices:
Have a proper feature that allows us to consolidate customer invoices rather than the "copy to" or "merge" as this does not tack the consolidation.
So the example us Customer A has 15 invoices you bill on 20th of each month but want to consolidate all 15 into 1 invoice to send them with all line items (not statements). Then the 15 invoices consolidated would be zero'd or closed off with a note saying the old invoice reference and where they were consolidated to into the new single invoice.Statements won't work, with the copy or merge you…
3 votesHi Keith, thanks for sharing this idea. We understand the consolidated invoice feature is an area of interest for our customers. The scenario you've described, combining multiple invoices into one with proper tracking, provides really helpful context. Your idea has now moved to Gaining Support, which means it's open for the community to show their support through votes and comments. Thanks for contributing to making Xero better ✨.

Workpapers - Display all Xero Journals in Workpapers to prevent duplication
Can we bring in all Journals made in the financial year not just what we create in workpapers (I picked a job we have completed to test, to see what we might like to see & this is something that would be handy, so we don't double up JNLs), also shows that the system will talk back & forth

Invoicing – Enable full keyboard entry (date + account number) without mouse clicks
The current “Add Payment” workflow in invoices is inefficient for keyboard users. While manual entry of payment dates has been improved, the account selection still forces users to use the mouse, which breaks the flow.
We need a smoother, full keyboard-navigable process when adding a payment to an invoice:
1.Enter date manually (already possible )
2.Press Tab to move to the Account field
3.Type the account number directly
4. Press Tab or Enter to confirm selection without needing to click the search bar or manually select the account with a mouse
Right now, even after typing the account number into…7 votesHey team, we've reviewed your idea and found another identical idea so we have merged the ideas together for ease, now it's up to the community to get behind and support it.

Sales Lists - Show Total Invoice Amount
To have the option to view full invoice amounts instead of changing on the summary screens after credit notes or any payment has been deducted, as makes it very difficult to check statements when it doesn't reflect the full amount.

Customer Statement - CC/BCC on Outgoing Mails
Ability to add CC/BCC on every outgoing Statement Of Accounts to customers.
Purpose: Internal colleagues or stakeholders allows for a clear record of who received the statement and the context of the communication.
It enables easier response and ensures everyone involved is aware of the situation.7 votesWe understand how valuable it'd be to have the option to CC or BCC internal staff and key stakeholders when emailing Statements of Account. You’ve highlighted how this feature would streamline internal communication, support better record-keeping, and make it easier to respond to client queries.
At the moment, while CC/BCC is available when sending individual invoices, this functionality isn’t yet available for Statements of Account, which means relying on manual workarounds.
This idea is now in the Gaining Support stage. If this feature would help you, please vote and share your thoughts to help us prioritise it. The more support it gets, the faster we can work on making it happen!

Invoicing - Ability to download a paid VAT invoice as unpaid and noted as a copy
Customers often ask for a copy of an older invoice that's been paid. When either resending or downloading it, Xero creates a new PDF that shows the invoice as paid with a 0.00 balance.
I should be able to send an exact copy of the original that clearly states it is a copy. In fact, HMRC states that a request for another copy of a VAT invoice SHOULD be as per the original and state that it's a duplicate.
3 votesHi Marianne, ✨
Thanks for sharing this idea and your feedback about HMRC requirements for VAT invoice copies is valuable. We've reviewed your idea and are moving it to Gaining support.

e-Invoicing : Support France legislation
Purpose : Starting september 2026 or 2027 dependng on the size of business, all the invoices for French companies should respect the new legislation for e-invoicing.
Is Xero planning to be accredited by French admin as a registered software ? (https://www.impots.gouv.fr/liste-des-plateformes-de-dematerialisation-partenaires-pdp-immatriculees-sous-reserve)
It would be very helpful for all the companies doing business in France.
5 votesHi everyone, great to see interest building around support for French e-invoicing. As France moves towards new digital invoicing requirements, it's understandable that you'd want a smoother way to manage this in Xero.
At this stage, Xero’s e-invoicing features are available in AU, NZ, UK, SG, and MY. While expansion to more regions is something we’re actively looking into, this particular request is still in the early stages.
The idea’s now in Gaining Support. If this would help simplify things for your business, adding your vote or sharing your opinions would help us get a clearer picture of the demand.
We’ll post updates here as soon as there’s more to share.

Invoices and quotes

Invoicing - Insurance / Surcharge Line at Bottom of Invoice
Summary:
Allow users to add a dedicated surcharge (e.g. insurance, card fee, handling) that appears as a distinct line below the subtotal on invoices, rather than as a regular line item.
Current LimitationAt present, any insurance recovery or surcharge must be entered as a standard line item. This:
Makes invoices look cluttered when the fee is not tied to specific products or services.
Can cause confusion for clients, who expect insurance/fees to be displayed separately (similar to how shipping or payment surcharges often appear).
Requires manual placement and formatting on each invoice, reducing efficiency and consistency.Proposed Solution:
Introduce…4 votesHi Joshua 👋It's really helpful for us to understand having the ability to add a surcharge or insurance line to invoices is a desirable option. We understand not having a dedicated field for surcharges or insurance can make it difficult to clearly communicate these extra costs to your customers. Currently manually adding a line item for the surcharge or using a custom branding theme to include the information are the only options💡Right now, we're not planning to add this as a specific feature, as our current focus is on some other features that will benefit a wider range of our customers, however we will monitor this for votes and comments from other users 📣

Invoicing - Internal Cost Tracking Link for Bills to Customers
Ability to link a bill/expense to a customers invoice but not have it itemise. So you can track cost of goods per job especially for small businesses only utilizing invoicing and not having to do projects
1 voteHi Phil, it'd be good to get a bit more detail to better understand your needs from what is currently available with billable expenses.
Right now, you can assign lines of a bill directly to a customer (rather than project). When you add the items to your customers invoice you can edit the remove the item code if you don't want it directly associated to the inventory item.
Would it be more something like the idea here that you're after with more visibility of the linkage between the invoice and bill?

Sales Overview - Add a Branding Theme column
A problem I have each month is when preparing sales invoices - I use several branding themes, one of which is for the AdFin integration.
It would be ideal to be able to see on the invoice list (in Sales > Invoices) which theme was attached to each invoice, it would be further beneficial to be able to select a bunch of invoices and bulk change the theme where required.

Sales Overview- allow sorting (draft) invoices by 2 fields
Currently I can sort my draft invoices by "To" which seems to then default to "Number" as a second level. I have multiple invoices for the one client each month and it would be great if I could sort by "Ref" then sort by "To" and the "Ref" would remain the second level field, instead of "Number."

Sales overview page - Option to show Invoices as GST Exclusive
Kia ora Xero Product Team,
I’d like to raise a feature request regarding how invoice totals are displayed in Xero.
Currently, the Draft, Awaiting Approval, Sent, and Awaiting Payment invoice lists always display totals on a GST (tax) inclusive basis. For businesses like ours that operate and report primarily on a GST-exclusive basis, this creates unnecessary reconciliation effort and increases the risk of error when reviewing invoices in bulk.
While we can work around this by using the Receivable Invoice Detail report set to “Tax Exclusive,” this adds extra steps and does not provide the same quick visibility as the…

Packing Slips - Remove the word 'Invoice'
Until recently when I saved a packing slip the default name was eg 'Packing Slip Inv - 4080'.
Then recently after you dated your system the packing slips are now called eg 'Invoice Packing Slip Inv - 4080'.
Can you change it back to remove the word invoice as it can cause confusion and staff may send the wrong document to suppliers and customers as both look like invoices.
I am changing the name manually but it was simpler and clearer before Xero added the word 'invoice'
If you can change it back that would be great and I'm sure…
