Sales Invoices - Combine and hide line items for customers
Ability to combine and hide line items in the invoices.
Purpose: To have good accounting and tracking of sales without showing the client the breakdown of all the items involved
265 votesHi everyone, thank you for your continued passion, and sharing how having the ability to group or combine line items within an invoice would give you the control to present information to your clients in the best way for your business.
In lieu of a direct feature, while I appreciate it won’t fit all needs here, the inbuilt calculator may help in some cases to combine costs of multiple lines to one, and we appreciate there are some customers that have explored third-party apps with more extensive functionality for the time being to full-fill their needs.
We’re updating the status of this idea to Accepted - While this isn’t on our roadmap atm, we see the value in this suggestion and it’ll be considered as we plan our future roadmap. We’ll update this thread if we have any more news to share.

Invoicing - Customers to pay deposits on invoices
To have the ability for customers to pay deposit through invoices
Purposes: Business can just send one invoice to customer/client, so they don’t have to send multiple invoices when it comes to part payment.
515 votesHi everyone, we’d like to round back to share an update that the ability to accept deposits has now rolled out to all AU, NZ, UK, CA, SG and US organisations, and we expect to make this available to remaining regions soon.
Staying close to feedback from its release, our team have recently added a due date field in which you can select a specific date that payment of the deposit is expected if this differs from the Invoice due date.
I look forward to looping back to finalise once we’re at 100% roll out of deposits, and give you a hint of where we’ll be expanding functionality next!

Invoices - Date columns for individual line items
Ability to add date columns for individual line items.
Purpose: To make users easily put a date for each item. The scenario that can benefit users is for them to show a specific date of when the product/service is delivered.
254 votesHi everyone, thanks for continuing to share your feedback and explain how important it is to be able to add dates to individual line items on invoices.
While this specific idea isn't directly in our pipeline at present, we're looking more broadly at how we may extend documents to better suit more of our customers' needs. We'll be taking this idea into close consideration as part of that work.
For now, as noted in my last update the best option to accommodate this in lieu of a direct field is to add the detail to the Description field of the line.
If there's any progress, we'll be sure to let you all know here.

Sales Invoicing - Order acknowledgement
Between a quote and sales invoice option to create a sales order acknowledgement
Purpose: To confirm to the buyer that the business agreed on the sales, before sending the invoice.
152 votesHi everyone, understand there are some businesses that have other processes in their sales flows that we don't currently have direct features for. Being open we don't have any plans for developing a Sales Order Acknowledgement atm.
In lieu of this, we wanted to share how you might be able to create a new branding theme and edit the Quote template for this atm.
You could create a separate branding theme for Order Acknowledgements. Editing the title of the Quote template.
Once the quote is accepted and you want to send an acknowledgement, you'll want to edit the quote and select the 'order acknowledgement' branding you've created.

Invoices | Inventory - Add units of measure (UOM) & weight to line items
Ability to add units of measure (UOM) and weight to line items.
Purpose: Customers can have clearer information. Because some of the items that Xero users’ sell are having these.
180 votesHi everyone, apologies for the gap since our last update.
We appreciate your ongoing feedback and additional detail that’s been shared in this thread.
A dedicated units-of-measure field for line items isn't something we've committed to building as a standalone feature, though it's one we're actively considering as part of a wider look at extending invoice documents to better serve our customers.
For now, connected apps in the Xero App Store remain an immediate option to meet needs expressed. We'll post an update here as this broader work develops.

Payment services - Auto Calculate Credit Card Fee or online payment fee and show on Invoice
To make the credit card fee or online payment fee visible in the invoice.
Purpose: Vendor/customer will be able to see how much exactly they’re being charged.
44 votesThanks everyone, we understand the interest for being able to pass on credit card and payment service fees to your customers.
Atm, as some of you have noted - if you're using or set up Stripe as a payment service for your organisation you'll have the ability to pass processing fees onto your customers. This'll be included in the Invoice total when the customer clicks on the Pay now button in your invoice - you can read up on and follow steps on this here.
- You can also use an advanced invoice template to show this on the invoice to your customer.
Outside this service, while not automated there are ways to represent and pass on fees to your customers;
- Add detail to your invoice payment terms so this is clear to your customer
- If there is a default fee that'd be charged you might like to set this up…

Invoice - Add confirmation popup when clicking Add Payment
Idea for a warning pop-up message for when clients add payments to invoices
(usually they haven't matched off by cent variance or something that has made it not match in the reconcile screen) Currently, its to easy for clients to add payment without realising they have also coded this, leading to double return of income/GST paid twice1 voteHi Eden, thanks for sharing this suggestion. We understand why having a confirmation prompt on the “Add Payment” action could be helpful in preventing mistakes.
At the moment, when a payment is entered on an invoice, it is recorded immediately once confirmed. If a selection is made in error, this can require reversing or correcting the transaction afterwards.
One option in the meantime is to use the bank reconciliation screen with the Find & Match process, where transactions are matched directly against bank statement lines. This can help reduce the likelihood of accidental manual payment entries from within the invoice screen.
I’ve updated the status of this post to Gaining Support so we can continue tracking interest and gathering more feedback from the community.
