History to record details the invoice was copied from
When I copy an invoice to a new invoice, the NEW invoice does not record in history the details of the invoice it was copied from (used to in classic invoicing).
This makes it nearly impossible to track back to the original if any changes made on the new version need to be reviewed/compared to the original.3 votesHi 👋 your idea is being looked into by our Community team. We'll be in touch soon to update you once your idea has been reviewed.

Selecting different bank accounts when invoicing to customers
Xero users need more flexibility when choosing which bank accounts customers must pay in. Majority companies have more than 1 bank account, but there is no easy way to specify per invoice which bank account the customer must pay in besides changing the company settings back and forth. Give Xero users the option when invoicing to select via a drop down (for example) which business account this customer must pay in.

Staff Invoicing and Quoting
I'd love for my staff to be able to login into xero to create invoices and quotes, and send them without being able to see the rest of the business accounts. Or has this been developed and can be done?

Repeating Manual Journals - Provide more frequency options
Once upon a time when we used TAS for our bookkeeping services, they had a very useful feature when processing recurring journals. We could choose separately months to correspond to the days clients being charged for. For example, we would pick January, March, May, July, August, October, December to process invoices for 31 days; February for 28 days; and April, June, September, November for 30 days. Once you have that set up initially, you don't have to think about adjusting recurring journals every month. At the moment, it takes me about half a day just to update over a hundred…
2 votesHi Anna, thanks for sharing your idea, and letting us know the changes that matter most for you. We understand that having more options in terms of how often the journal should be repeated would be helpful and prevent extra admin. We'll open this up for the community to share their thoughts and vote on it. In the meantime, we'll monitor this space for traction.

Using AI on bills uploaded to Files
Many of my clients upload supplier invoices directly to Xero, where they appear in the Files section.
Currently, when selecting an uploaded invoice and choosing Add to new → Bill, Xero creates a blank bill rather than extracting and pre‑filling the invoice details. In contrast, invoices received via Email to Bills are automatically processed and prefilled using OCR/AI.
It would be extremely helpful if invoices uploaded to Files could be processed in the same way, allowing Xero to prefill a new bill using AI or OCR. This would avoid the need to ask clients to change the email address they…1 voteThanks for submitting your idea on Xero Product Ideas.

Invoicing - Display customer overdue balance and available credits on Awaiting Approval page
On the awaiting approval invoice page can we get more details for each customer, like any overdue amount and any credit they have in their account. Currently you cannot apply a credit unless you open the invoice. This will save time and errors.

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.

Revert from Awaiting Approval back to Drafts
More than once I've accidentally clicked on submit for approval when I only wanted to save and leave the Invoice or bill in Drafts. It would be so handy if there was a 'revert back to drafts' option.

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.
223 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.

Add send by SMS option to the mobile app and move the send by SMS option to the top of the page on desktop
Allow the send invoice by SMS option to be available in the mobile app. Moving the option of sending an invoice by SMS to the top of the page instead of at the bottom would be much better too. Most businesses will have templates set up, so this is why it would be easier to have the option at the top of the page.

Invoice Overview - Able to chose default tab it opens up on (Awaiting Payment)
Invoices - Awaiting payment
When clicking on invoices, it would be helpful to be able to select a default invoices tab I would like to land on. This feature is available for Bills and the user is able to select the 'Awaiting payment' tab as a default.
In the interest of having easy access and a quick view on which customers have not paid, it would be beneficial to introduce this feature.6 votesHey everyone 👋,
Thanks for your feedback and for sharing your thoughts on this idea ✨. We'd like to clear up some confusion. If you navigate through the main menu, the Invoices or Bills pages always default to the All tab, but clicking Invoices owed to you or Bills you need to pay from the dashboard takes you directly to the Awaiting Payment tab. As noted by others in this thread, one option for now is to bookmark the Awaiting Payment tab directly from your browser.

While we can't make any promises about if or when this idea will be developed, your votes and comments are essential for helping us understand what's most important to you.

Invoicing templates+ PDF naming + emailing naming
XERO should enter the customer front office era!!!
We need:
1) drag and drop invoice templates to replace the pre-historic existing templates and doing away with the "Billy Boy" word document interface for making invoice templates = the pre-history!
2) add the ability to tune the PDF naming to include custom selected key element
3) add the ability to use custome selected email naming for emailing invoices!!!!
The most important part being invoice template tuning ... please PLEASE enter the 121st century!!!1 voteThanks for submitting your idea on Xero Product Ideas. We appreciate you taking time to let us know how we could improve Xero for you.

WhatsApp Invoice Sending Integration for Xero
Product Idea: WhatsApp Invoice Sending Integration for Xero
Many small business owners—particularly those in mobile or service-based industries such as maintenance, repairs, and on-site services—primarily communicate with their clients via WhatsApp rather than email.
Currently, when using Xero, these users need to:
• Generate an invoice
• Download the PDF
• Open WhatsApp
• Manually attach and send the invoice to the client
This process is time-consuming and inefficient, especially for business owners who are constantly on the move and may not have immediate access to a client’s email address.
Proposed Feature:
Introduce a “Send via WhatsApp” option within Xero…2 votesThanks for submitting your idea on Xero Product Ideas. We appreciate you taking time to let us know how we could improve Xero for you.

Invoice - Reference default set to contact account number
I would like to be able to check an option that automatically adds the accout number to the reference field on invoices. This would save a lot of time.
I'm sure there would be options that people would like ot autofill this field so make ot part of the settings4 votesAppreciate the feedback and how this would be useful when your reference is driven off the contact's account number.
It's not something we have plans for right now, but do share your idea with others that you feel would find this helpful so they can add their support for your idea here. We'll keep a close eye on the interest and share of there's any progress.

Invoices - Add a warning or lock when invoice is already being worked on by another user.
When two users open the same invoice draft on different devices and make changes simultaneously, only the changes made by the last person to save and close the invoice are retained, resulting in earlier changes being overwritten.
It would be very helpful if Xero could restrict invoice drafts to be opened by only one user at a time, or provide a warning/lock to prevent simultaneous editing and accidental data loss.

Can you please get rid of that annoying image that appears when I'm typing in a new contact on a sales invoice. As I'm typing the image is flashing away on each keystroke and giving me a headache!

Malaysia E-Invoicing - Embed Validated QR code on invoice PDF
1st) I suggest on embedding the Validated QR code to the normal PDF invoice so that we can print multiple invoices at one go and our normal PDF invoice also consists of banking details and credit terms whereas the Validated E-Invoicing has none of these.
2nd) I suggest on putting "Send to MyInvois" button instead of copy and paste the e-mail MyInvois@invoi.ci for every invoice. This is too troublesome.
3rd) Regarding the Invoice interface on the Sent Column, perhaps can Xero make it into two instead? One is for the Validated E-Invoicing & the other one is for customer. The…
19 votesHi Maggie and others in community who've voted, we appreciate hearing the changes that'd help you when sending eInvoices with Xero.
Just to note, as each point you've raised would be considered separately by our product teams it's best to have an idea for each of these that we can get a feel of the community support through - see more on the qualities of a good idea in our Xero Central article 🙂
I've updated your idea here to represent the first point for embedding the QR code on the PDF of the invoice. You'll see I've created ideas for the other points you've noted below.
- Malaysia E-Invoicing - Two columns to show when validated versus viewed
- Malaysia E-Invoicing - Button for 'Send to MyInvoic'
If there's any progress for these we'll share on the respective idea/s. Thanks!
