  1. It would be good if Xero allows for stripe surcharge fee adjustment for both domestic and international customers, not just domestic customers.

  2. We require payment of cash sales before goods are sent to customer's, we need to know when payments have been made in real time in order to get the goods to our customers in a timely manner.
    I reconcile payments to the bank account everyday so I can see when invoices are paid via internet banking. When it comes to invoices paid via stripe however, there is no reconciliation until the money comes into the bank account, so I don't know that these invoices have been paid until well afterwards.

    This means customers are not receiving their goods when they…

  3. I’d love to see Xero expand repeating invoices to support scheduled future invoice variations within a single recurring invoice template.

    Current Problem

    Many service-based businesses invoice clients monthly for recurring services (e.g. retainers, subscriptions, support agreements, maintenance plans, etc.) but also need to bill occasional or annual charges such as:

    • Annual renewals
    • Membership fees
    • Licence renewals
    • Maintenance charges
    • Contract uplifts
    • Seasonal charges
    • One-off setup/project fees

    Currently in Xero this usually requires:

    • multiple repeating invoices,
    • separate one-off invoices,
    • or manually editing invoices each month.

    This creates unnecessary admin and breaks automation workflows such as autopay/direct debit systems that only work cleanly…

  4. For years, Xero’s search bar worked in a way that allowed power users to click the search icon and immediately start typing or pasting. The input would automatically receive keyboard focus, so workflows that rely on quick data entry were seamless and efficient.

    How it used to work:

    Click the search icon (or press the search keyboard shortcut).

    The search input was immediately focused.

    Users could paste or type text instantly with no delay.

    How it works now:

    Clicking the search icon no longer guarantees immediate keyboard focus.

    If you paste or type text too quickly after clicking, the paste…

    Hi Sally, thanks for sharing your idea, we appreciate hearing how bringing back the old search engine or improving the current one could make a difference to you. We'll continue to monitor this for more traction and keep you posted here. Cheers

  5. Currently, the option to print a packing slip only becomes available once an invoice has been approved and marked as awaiting payment.

    It would be really helpful if packing slips could also be printed before invoice approval. In our internal process, we only approve invoices once an order is ready for dispatch, but the factory team often needs the packing slip earlier so they can begin preparing the order.

    If we approve the order early just to generate the packing slip, it can create confusion internally, as the warehouse team may assume the order is further along in the process…

  6. It would be great to have a button to go forward or back to navigate/scroll through invoices in invoice number order.
    Sometimes i need to quickly check details in invoices already sent. But i have to navigate back to the invoice page or search the invoice number.
    Having a forward and back button would be very helpful.

  7. Enable common text formatting e.g add bullet points, make items bold, italic or underlined. Editing the text size and fonts might be handy for some folks too.

  10. Allow invoices to be paid VIA Zelle. Some business bank accounts hook directly to zelle, they don't have any fees like stripe, etc. I prefer to get paid VIA Zelle so I can keep more of the money I earned.

    Hi Katrina, thanks for raising this with us! We appreciate you letting us know that you're keen to have your organization included in testing if this idea gains more support to move forward. I’ve opened this idea up to the rest of the community so other users can share how important this feature is for their businesses as well. We'll be sure to keep you posted on any updates!

  11. Spell check on sales invoices. I have multiple clients using Xero to raise their sales invoices and quotes, and spelling isn't their strong point. Having spell check enable within sales invoices and quotes will be extremely valuable for them.

    Thank you for your suggestion to add a spell check feature to Xero’s invoicing. We appreciate your feedback. As you know at this time, there isn’t a built-in spell check option available within Xero invoices. However, many users find that browser-based spell check tools or third-party extensions can help with proofreading invoice content.

    We encourage you to continue sharing your ideas and feedback, as this helps us understand what features are most important to our community. For transparency there are no immediate plans for this feature, please know that your input is valued and will be considered as we continue to improve Xero.

  12. Like in xero mobile app in Invoice we Have option to share Invoice via other apps by getting its Link (Even we can send that link to clients with SMS)

    Quote should have similar share option in app.

    Thanks for sharing your idea, Davinder, and letting us know the changes that matter most to you. It’s great to see customers like you helping shape the future of Xero.

    We have reviewed your idea, and it is now available for the community to support. Make sure to share it with colleagues who could also benefit from this feature so they can add their vote. Other members are welcome to comment and provide additional context on how this improvement could enhance their experience with Xero.

  13. Please add a description box so that we can add additional information about the reason for the invoice. Being a garage we have to add description of car repairs carried out in the item line. Even if we could go right along the page with the text it would help a lot. At the moment invoices look messy and take up a lot of the page.
    attached sample layout would be perfect...

    Hi Lorraine, thanks for raising this idea. We understand having a separate description to describe a summary of work carried out would be a useful field to have.

  14. When allocating a credit note, either an invoice or bill, be able to set a date for the application, rather than defaulting to the date the credit note was created as it will fail occasionally when using lock dates.

    Thank you for sharing your suggestion for setting a specific allocation date for credit notes against invoices or bills. This would provide a smooth solution for linking invoices and credit notes across different financial years after lock dates have been set.

    Now it's up to the community to get behind this idea support it. Make sure you share your idea with any colleagues that this could benefit so they can add their vote too!

  15. Every time i send an invoice, I update the new pricing for an inventory item in the invoice. This is manual but it should then automatically update the inventory price as well. so in short, the inventory should be following the latest invoice pricing to keep up to date.

    Thanks for sharing here, team - Currently, once you've selected an inventory item on a row of your invoice, if you click on the Item code field again you'll see the option to Edit which will open the item details modal for you to make changes, Save and continue on invoicing.

    Understand some users may like this to be more automatic based on what you're entering in the line. I want to be transparent that we don't have plans around this and would need to consider how we make this optional for different use cases but for now we'll track the interest through the idea here.

  17. I would like the ability to edit inventory item costs directly from the quote page, similar to the option available on the invoice page. I don't mean the price on the quote itself, I mean the cost in the inventory. This would save me a lot of time.

    Make sure to share this with any other colleagues that'd find it beneficial too so they can upvote your idea.

  18. Purpose : Starting september 2026 or 2027 dependng on the size of business, all the invoices for French companies should respect the new legislation for e-invoicing.

    Is Xero planning to be accredited by French admin as a registered software ? (https://www.impots.gouv.fr/liste-des-plateformes-de-dematerialisation-partenaires-pdp-immatriculees-sous-reserve)

    It would be very helpful for all the companies doing business in France.

    Hi everyone, great to see interest building around support for French e-invoicing. As France moves towards new digital invoicing requirements, it's understandable that you'd want a smoother way to manage this in Xero.

    At this stage, Xero’s e-invoicing features are available in AU, NZ, UK, SG, and MY. While expansion to more regions is something we’re actively looking into, this particular request is still in the early stages.

    The idea’s now in Gaining Support. If this would help simplify things for your business, adding your vote or sharing your opinions would help us get a clearer picture of the demand.

    We’ll post updates here as soon as there’s more to share.

  19. I have been a Xero customer for over 10 years and have referred dozens of businesses to the platform during that time. The primary reason we originally switched to Xero was its simplicity and clean interface. Unfortunately, the recent changes to the Bills section have completely undermined that simplicity.

    The new split-screen layout with the bill list on the left side of the screen is unnecessary and extremely distracting. When I open a bill, I need to focus on that bill only. There is no logical reason to display a list of other bills while I am working inside a…

    I NOTE THAT XERO HAS RECENTLY ADDED A SUMMARY OF STATEMENT ACTIVITY TO THE EMAIL TEMPLATE (CLEARLY DIDN'T LISTEN TO THE FEEDBACK WHEN XERO DID THIS TO THE INVOICE TEMPLATE).

    PLEASE ADD THE FUNCTION TO HIDE THE DETAILED SUMMARY ON CUSTOMER STATEMENT EMAIL TEMPLATE.
