  1. Invoice File Naming convention - please consider putting an identifier in the naming format for PDF invoice files so I can see who they are from. Every Xero invoice from every one of our multiple suppliers simply has the invoice number - but no indication of who issued it. So, I have to open each one and the rename it. I'm sure the existing format works for Xero to Xero - but it is frustrating when we have other processes in between - or need to review it later.

  2. We’re happy with the new edit template invoicing experience, but would like full control over what appears on PDF invoices, specifically the ability to remove the “View Online” button.

    Many invoices are printed or saved for offline use, where web links don’t make sense and can look unprofessional. For some businesses and customers, digital links on formal invoice documents are unnecessary or confusing.

    Suggested solution:
    Add a simple setting or template option to enable/disable the “View Online” button on PDF invoices, so businesses can choose what works best for them.

    Since it is our business, we need to have more…

  3. Each day, I prepare multiple draft invoices then one-by-one click into them from the draft invoice page and approve and email them individually. Once an invoice is confirmed as sent, I want to return directly to the 'draft' invoice page, but the only option is to click the 'invoices' link and go back to the generic invoice page, before then having to click onto the draft invoice tab again.

  4. Show Net (ex-VAT) and VAT totals in Invoice list views (Awaiting Payment & Drafts).

    For UK VAT-registered businesses, the current invoice list views (including Invoices Awaiting Payment and Draft invoices) only show gross totals including VAT. This makes it difficult to understand true cashflow, as the VAT portion is not money the business gets to keep and will be payable to HMRC.
    It would be extremely useful to be able to either:
    Display Net (ex-VAT) and VAT as separate columns in these invoice list views, or
    Toggle between Gross and Net totals in the list view summary.
    This would allow…

  5. QuickBooks already has this, support for Gmail integration for sending invoices through your own Gmail account, not from generic Xero email address.

    Would be more personal, professional and functional, as well as supporting record of sent emails (invoices etc) in Gmail sent items. Some services also do not accept emails of invoices unless from a recognised email address, so xero address is rejected.

  10. 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.

    Hi 👋 thanks for engaging in the product idea forums. To check, when you say you'd like the Invoice reference to autofill from the account number - would this be the Contact Account Number from their contact record?

  11. Prior to the latest update of Xero, users could select 'due in 0 days', which would enable reminder invoices to be sent on the due date.

    Now there is only the ability to send an invoice reminder just before or just after the due date.

    Please reinstate the option to automate invoice reminders on due date, not just before or after.

  12. Request ability to bulk upload Contact default due dates into bulk imported Draft invoices containing no due date. Approval currently prevented due to missing due date but require that to be populated from Contact default data. Work around for individual invoices is to preview prior to Approval but that is time consuming for large numbers of invoices included in batch import.

  13. Invoices overview page should include an Overdue button (to filter for just overdue invoices).

    It's great that on the home page you can easily click through to just show the overdue invoices, but you can't do this from the actual Invoices page.

    Suggest adding a new "Overdue" tab at the top between "Awaiting Payment" and "Paid"

  14. I have clients with several different contacts and I would like to keep the specific contact from the invoice that I am copying. Instead it copies the contact from the last invoice to that client.

  15. The lowdown on transaction limits:

    1,000 sales invoices (based on 10 line items per invoice)
    1,000 purchase bills (based on 10 line items per bill)
    2,000 account transactions
    2,000 bank statement lines
    1,000 lines per statement

    Feature Request:
    Increase system transaction limits (invoices, bills, bank line items, etc.) for higher-volume users

    Description:
    As businesses scale and transaction volumes grow, Xero’s current handling limits (per document line items or per period) can become a constraint — especially for industries with complex billing (multiple lines, consolidations) and those migrating from systems with higher allowances (e.g., Zoho Books Enterprise plans). Increasing these limits…

  16. Add native integration between Xero and Zoho Invoice (FREE): Custom templates

    "Many small and medium businesses use a combination of Xero for core accounting and Zoho Invoice (FREE) for invoicing, custom templates, client portal features, and payment links. A native Xero–Zoho Invoice integration would streamline workflows and eliminate duplication of effort."

    Current Challenge:

    1. Users must manually re-adjust invoices in Word if to customise Xero invoices offline.
    2. Requires much time and effort to export, build, import and test - until working.
    3. Word customisation is limited, and an integration to Zoho Invoice would be much easier.

    Proposed Solution:

    "Add a native connector…

  17. On the basic plan you get 20 invoices per month. The next plan up gives you unlimited invoices per month but the gap you pay is far too much especially if your a small business that might require an extra 10 invoices on top of the 20 allocation on the basic plan. Make an option so you can buy an invoice pack of either 10,15 or 20.

  19. I just want to add a simple Subtotal line which will automatically add up everything above it before I add a discount line below.
    Seems really obvious yet doesn't exist...my life slowly slips away everytime I have to do this manually!

  20. We have assigned our supplier contacts into "how they are paid" groups which allows Aged Payables reporting by payment type, it would be so useful to be able to filter by group in the purchases - awaiting payment screen, and also be able to add the column "group" into the screen. This would make filtering by EFT suppliers, and exclude suppliers invoices that are paid by Direct Debit or Credit Cards etc.
