Invoices and quotes
We do very detailed quotations that are done from our quote / costing sheets. These are then sent as a PDF to clients. It would be really helpful if these PDF could be uploaded like a bill to Xero quotes and invoices.

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.
2 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.

Reporting & Inventory - Link product search results/reports directly to Invoices and Purchase Orders
Hi all. We have recently come over the Xero from Attache.
Several hundred times per month in Attache, we used the product look up option for individual products sold on Invoices and the same for individual products on Purchase orders however xero currently does not offer this as outlined below.
By putting in a code into the search area for invoices and P/O, we would like the option to search for that item, then click on the product that is identified as the one we want to look up, and bring up the invoice or purchase order the product is…2 votesThanks for sharing your idea, and letting us know the changes that matter most for you.

Invoicing - Add another Status under Paid | Paid Awaiting Pickup
Please add a tab in the invoices category for "Paid Awaiting Pickup".
Right now under invoices there is a tab for "All", "Draft", "Awaiting Approval", "Awaiting Payment", "Paid" and "Repeating". Our business often has invoiced paid but the customers have not picked up their products. When they come in we have to search to see if what they are picking up has been paid for. A tab for "PAID AWAITING PICKUP" would really help.

Bills - Lock the Attachment preview section when scrolling up and down invoice lines
Attached preview window to stay in locked screen on the Left, with line items to be on the right on a scroll screen. Because if you add attachments to work from, the screen will be ready to view from the top left and if you have more than 20-line items inputted and you're working from the bottom. You can't see what the attachment is to work from. Look at pictures to see the mark up of issue. This issue is same as the bills. The bills attachment is on its on screen, but you can move it where you want…

Invoice | SMS - "Print pdf" button
Most of our customers prefer receiving invoices via SMS. When trying to print the invoice via the SMS link, it generates a 2-3 page online version of the invoice. Can you implement a "Print pdf" option that would generate the same concise layout used when previewing the invoice in Xero? Thank you!
2 votesGreat to get this sort of insight, Kelly. Thanks for sharing. We'd like to get a sense of the wider interest for being able to print PDF from the SMS invoice message, please feel free to share with any colleagues or customers that you know would find this useful so they can vote on this too.

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
3 votesHi 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?

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…10 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.

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…12 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.

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.10 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!

New invoicing - Ability to move Create new item modal

Invoicing | Add Payment - Align bank account order across UI
When using the "Add Payment" button on an Invoice, I am regularly confused because the Banks are not in the same sort order I've assigned on the Dashboard / Bank Accounts Page.
This sort order is already applied to the "New Spend Money" page. So really it would be ideal if it matched platform-wide
This is complicated for me since Stripe requires a new account for each platform.
Hopefully the attached screenshot makes the request / issue clearer.

Dashboard - Posting Payments/Receipts direct from the Dashboard
When posting a payment /receipt against an "already entered" Bill or Invoice, it would be good to be able to do this from the Dashboard. This link could be added to the "+" on the Dashboard and could take you to a search facility to search for the Bill or Invoice. This would also save time having to search under Bills to Pay and Invoices awaiting payment.
Yes, payments and receipts are automatically matched in the Bank Rec, but it would be good to be able to post the payments/receipts without having to wait for them to appear in the…6 votesWe're grateful for your engagement and letting us know how adding a payment/receipt directly from the dashboard menu would be beneficial for you.

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 - 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.
