Invoice Reminder - Templates to apply to specific customers
Invoice reminders are currently "all or nothing". I dont want to chase my good clients with automated messages from Xero becuse it upsets them but I do want some of my clients to have auto reminders about invoices about to become due and invoices overdue, those who generally are bad payers. In the same way we have email and invoice templates can we have invoice reminder templates and when we raise an invoice be prompted to apply a reminder template (or not). Or can the template for reminders be part of the customer financial details, in the way we can…

different email address
More & more customers/suppliers are wanting their invoices sent to one email & statements sent to another & suppliers want purchase Orders to one & remits to another. An option to have multiple emails and tick box on what is sent where would be very helpful

PAYMENT PLANS FOR CLIENTS
PAYMENT PLANS
It's surprising to me that Xero doesn't offer this. We already have invoice reminders, surely it's possible to have customisable payment plans with reminders to clients?
Example; I invoice Don and Cindy for $3500.00. They have to pay a deposit of 30% to secure services, leaving $2450.00 owing. Their event/job is 18 months away, and I want to divide their remaining invoice into 5 equal chunks = $490.00 paid every 3 months, or whatever period is suitable.
The invoices can use the already existing reminder system, but it needs to be expanded and have specific amounts tied to…

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…
4 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.

Xero bundles Hubdoc with its product, and Hubdoc is an excellent way of managing supplier invoices. Send a PDF attachment to the Hubdoc email address and it can be processed, reconciled, and retained as a proper PDF record.
So why is Xero, of all the services I use, one of the few that does not seem to give me the option to receive its own invoices as PDF attachments?
Instead, I have to click a link, open the invoice, download the PDF manually, and then send it on to the very document-processing system that Xero itself provides.

When I create invoices, Xero uses the first name field of the primary person in the contact record as the name after “Dear”. I create my contacts by importing them from another system via CSV, but there does not appear to be any way to populate that field automatically on import. That means I have to manually edit the contact in Xero every time I create a new one.
As a developer, I cannot begin to explain how irritating that is when you are doing it for the 200th time.

Title shows on the Invoice Screen
It would be helpful to have a the title line show on the Invoice list as it does on the quotes screen. This is helpful for when you are trying to find an old invoice without having to click through each individual one.
Same would also be helpful on the bills page as it would make it much faster to find the correct bill especially when you have numerous ones from the same supplier like my company does.1 voteThanks for submitting your idea on Xero Product Ideas.

Invoice Attachments - Ability to add videos
Being able to add a video to the attachments on an invoice so when sending an invoice, you can send a 5-10 second video of a repair or service or what was fixed or item you are invoicing over. Photos are good, but sometimes video is better.
2 votesThanks so much for sharing this idea 🎥 — we can see how being able to attach a short video to an invoice could be really useful, especially when a quick clip can show a repair, service, or completed work more clearly than a photo.
We’re moving this idea to Gaining support so other customers can vote and comment on it too. This helps our product team gauge community interest and better understand how valuable this would be for businesses using Xero.
If this is something you’d like to see, we’d encourage you to add any extra detail about how you’d use it, as that can be really helpful context for the team reviewing the idea.

Invoices - Retain and save the selected Account Code on line items with a $0.00 amount or 100% discount
We send out promotional items and invoice these with a 100% discount. When saving the invoice, Xero is not saving the account code that I applied. I've read this is an accounting simplification. We need to see these invoices - is there a workaround?
3 votesHi Vanisha, thanks for sharing this suggestion. Retaining the selected account code on zero-value or fully discounted line items could be useful for reporting and analysis, particularly for tracking promotional or non-charged allocations.
Keeping this mapping in place would help preserve useful context in reporting, even when the line has no financial impact on the ledger.
We’ll keep an eye on the feedback and interest in this thread.

Invoice template - Tax ID displayed under own Company details
The rational of display Tax ID Display Name under the client contact doesn't sounds right as this is the column where we should key in our own company information.
When we using the standard template of Xero for AR Invoice, if there is tax id keyed under client's name, the field of "Tax ID Display Name" will be display under the client name. this sounds weird when I was told to amend the "Tax ID Display Name" which can be found under Financial Setting to something called "TIN Number" or "Tax ID Number" to make the display right.
2 votesThanks for sharing this idea 🙂 We’ve moved it to Gaining Support so we can continue to track interest from others who’d like to see this improved.
In the meantime, there is a workaround available using an advanced invoice template (custom DOCX template). This gives you more control over the invoice format, so you can customise how the invoice displays outside of the standard template.
You can find more on setting this up here: Create an advanced invoice template

Removal of pre-populating the Who and What fields when reconciling/posting payments - Incomprehensible decision
Xero appears to have stopped pre-populating the Who and What fields when reconciling/posting payments. This is such a backward step in an accounting package that I find it hard to believe anyone asked for it or thought it was a good enhancement idea (and that it took priority over lots of other ideas/changes that would have had merit). Pre-populating saved a huge amount of time and mistakes/inconsistencies e.g. not having to look up the account number where previous similar payments had been posted to; not being able to see a default description that had been used on previous transactions; not…

Repeating invoices created days in advance with future date
I was on Quickbooks Online where the functionality was brilliant to have repeating invoices, but it was sent days in advance.
For instance; I have repeating invoices for more than 150 customers dated on the 1st of the month and due within 7 days from invoice date, however the system was set up to send the invoices 7 days in advance (I was able to manually choose 7 days) dated the 1st of the next month. Essentially, giving all my customers a week's advance notice and usually receive payment long before it is actually due.Would be fantastic if Xero…

New reference field placeholder
For reoccurring invoices, have a placeholder in the reference field that increases by one every month. Jan - 1234 Feb - 1235 and so on.
This would save me hours. All my invoices are reoccurring and my customers want a reference that reflects a new workorder number every month that increase by one.

Invoices - Add custom fields to display the billing term or service duration
The ability to add custom fields to invoices based on the industry would be a fantastic feature. I have a SaaS client who bills annually that has customers reaching out about adding the invoicing term(number of months) to their invoices. Seems like there have been other ideas submitted based on specific industry requirements.
3 votesWe appreciate the suggestion, Deanne. We understand how being able to add custom field for billing terms to invoices could help provide clearer information to customers and reduce the need for manual descriptions.
Having dedicated fields for service start and end dates could also support businesses managing ongoing contracts, retainers, or deferred revenue workflows.
We’ll continue tracking the feedback and interest shared here.

Credit notes - Preview before saving as Draft.
We would like the ability to preview the Credit Note BEFORE saving it as a Draft.
Currently, the only option to preview a Credit Note is to save it as a Draft and then use the "Print PDF" option to open a preview.
Instead, we would like an option where we're able to view a preview when creating the Credit Note.
Purpose: To be review the Credit Note for mistakes before officially saving it.

invoice send
When sending invoices from Xero if there is a delay in the sending of invoices instead of leaving them in the queue as unsent it would be better for them to be moved to a "outbox" or "pending send" so that you can continue to send invoices, or be aware they aren't going to be sent straight away.
This happened to me yesterday and I spent a lot of time logging a service request only to find out that Xero was on the go slow and the invoices were just queued to send later, and I had tried to resend…1 voteThanks for submitting your idea on Xero Product Ideas.
