  1. The ability to recognise future revenue from the invoice.

    Purpose: To find out the future revenue, because for some businesses the invoice that they’ve issued to their customer is the revenue for the future month.

    Hi all, appreciate the interest and rationale in wanting to be able to recognise revenue of a sale at a date different to that of the invoice or payment date.

    While this maybe a function we look to explore in the long-term we want to be upfront that this is not something we'll be developing in the near term. In the meantime it may be best to look into connected apps that can solve for revenue recognition. We'll be sure to let you know if there's any change around this, here.

  2. 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

    Hi 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.

  3. 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.

    Hi team, work for requesting and accept deposit payments has progressed well. We're now just entering the stage of rolling out a solution powered by Stripe to a limited group of users.

    As mentioned in my last update - we're extremely grateful to our community here, who have shared their interest and provided feedback on how deposits in invoicing would meet your needs. We'd love to hear your feedback on our developments for this feature early and have included anyone that has voted on this idea and is connected to Stripe in the first group rollout - You'll receive a banner in your organisation on how to make use of this soon.

    I'll share more again here as the rollout widens. Thanks!

  4. 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.

    Hi everyone, we appreciate the interest in being able to add dates to individual lines of an invoice. Currently our team are focused on improvements to new invoicing and we want to be upfront we don't have any plans for adding a date column to the details grid within an invoice atm.

    Right now if you do require dates for individual line items we'd recommend adding these within the Description field of the line.

    We will continue to review this as we continue to evolve the product. If there are any updates or changes, we'll share this all with you through the idea here. Thanks

  5. 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.

    Hi everyone, we appreciate your input and sharing detail of how you'd like to see this developed to help suit the needs of your business.
    We want to upfront that we don't have plans for developing this in the next year. However looking further out to the future, our teams will continue to review and consider how they might build inventory in Xero to cater for units of measure.
    If you're after an immediate solution, it might be worth exploring connected apps that can integrate with Xero and cater for your business needs. As soon as there's any change or news around this to share we'll be sure to update our community and all of your interested in this, here.

  6. 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.

    Hi 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. 

  7. 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.

    Thanks 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.

    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…
