Quote - Ability to have quote reminder
Add feature to automatically follow up on quotes / send quote reminder *days before expiry or *days after quote issued — as there is with invoices. This feature comes standard with most other quoting interfaces.
530 votesHi community, we understand how being able to send quote reminders like you can for invoices, would help with following up on uncommitted work with your customers and potentially locking in sales.
For the time being, as many will be aware you can resend a quote that’s already been sent, by clicking the 3 dot menu in the top right and choosing ‘Send’, where you’ll have the option to change the email and who it’s being addressed to.
This is something we have intentions of diving into discovery for this year and I’ll return to share more news when things progress. Thanks

Quotes - Autosave
Hi
Would love to see the autosave available for Quotes. Often my clients are distracted whilst creating Quotes and when they've navigated to another section (rather than opening a new Xero tab), the Quote disappears!
For one of my clients, his quoting is very detailed and this process takes valuable time which he'd rather not have to repeat if the Quote is no longer there.
Invoices are autosaved of course, once a Contact is entered, so I would assume that the same principle could easily be applied to Quotes....
Thanks!62 votesHi everyone, we appreciate interest from you all here in being able to adopt autosave into Quotes. Across the board there are mixed reviews from users that would, and those that would not like to see this enhancement across Xero features.
Right now, the current experience requires you to click Save on the quote before navigating to another screen in Xero.
We appreciate there are other contributing factors to the need here like session timeouts and internet connectivity.
Being upfront this isn't a feature we have roadmapped at this time, however our product teams are aware of the needs and interest of this here and will take this into consideration as they continue to plan the future of Quotes across Xero. If there are any plans to progress this we'll make sure to keep you all informed and updated through this idea. Thanks

Quotes - Add payment link
Add a payment link to quotations so clients can pay on a quotation as well as an invoice.
Purpose: This would allow clients to pay on the quotation sent.
46 votesHi everyone, thanks for the support you’ve added here.
While it's not possible to accept a payment on a Quote at this time, as you may have seen we’re in the process of releasing the ability to accept a deposit on an approved invoice.
That said, we do want to share that future plans for deposits include exploring earlier points in the sales cycle, such as from a quote. We understand this is a closely related workflow and we’ll share if there’s more progress to connect back here.

Quotes: Include Stripe PayNow button on quotes
With PayNow, we want the customer to use our stripe and pay on the quote. The idea behind this is that customer pays and then we send the product and issue the invoice. If we issue the invoice and then customer changes mind and doesn't pay, it will be a problem and we need to delete the invoice. So, adding Pay Now to the quote will solve this problem.
12 votesThanks for sharing details behind your needs in this request, everyone.
Right now, accepting deposits with Stripe (that’s in the process of being rolled out) is limited to approved invoices rather than quotes, so paying directly from a quote isn’t supported in the current release.
We do see the value in enabling payment earlier in the sales flow, and future plans for deposits include exploring earlier stages such as quote-based workflows. We’ll return with more news here if, and when that becomes more concrete.

Quotes - Convert to a deposit invoice and remaining amount invoice
Ability to convert quotes into invoice & the remaining amount of invoices.
Purpose: Because it helps users invoicing workflow as they often have to keep a separate record of deposits sent / paid and manually calculate the remaining amount to invoice on completion of a project
61 votesHi community, we appreciate the support in this idea and apologise for not engaging here sooner. Thanks for sharing how important this workflow is for your business.
Our current deposits release is focused on approved invoices, where a business can request an upfront deposit and then collect the remaining balance later on that invoice.
However, we know for some businesses this needs to begin earlier from the quote stage. While we consider how we might expand deposits in the longer term we want to be upfront that converting a quote to a deposit and remaining amount invoice isn’t in the roadmap as yet.
We’ll keep this idea updated as there’s more to share on the future of deposits with Xero.
