Contacts - Allow multiple addresses for a single contact record
Ability to create and save multiple addresses for a single contact record
Purpose: Allow customers to map customer & supplier details against a single contact record
Hi everyone, we know this remains a highly important request, and we appreciate the volume of detail you’ve shared around billing, delivery and contact management workflows in this idea.
As shared in our last update - our team has been progressing the next phase of work needed to bring this more meaningfully into invoicing.
We know many of you are looking for clearer timing, and while I’m not able to confirm a release date at this stage, I do want to reassure you this remains an active area of work for our product teams.
We’ll continue to return here with further updates as we move through the next stages. Thanks again for your patience and for continuing to share the workflows that make this so important.

Do you have any update on this at all please, as it's been a long old while since last one?
This is a pretty critical function, which seems to be available in most competitor products.
We sell to a number of clients who need delivery to many different end customers each, so without this function we are having to make use of a number of frustrating workarounds.
Please update.

This is clearly not a priority for Xero. The best way to vote is with my feet. I will be leaving Xero to another platform. Quick books and Sage both have the function.

@Kelly Munro - your last post is six months old. Can we please have an update on the progress? I realise it's complex, however as you can see, there are a lot of comments so a lot of people are interested in this requirement.

We supply a number of organisations such as care home groups and retail outlets that are billed centrally but have multiple delivery points, at the moment there is only the facility to have one delivery address per billing address.
The ability to "add more" would make so much difference as the only option is seems is to have multiple contacts.
May stop us converting to Xero -

Zero will never update anything.... We have learned by just watching the pain other Zero users are going thru. We advise our client to beware of this solution for it is not for everyone.

If our contact is say ABC Council, we need the ability to put multiple people to this contact. For example, our Customer is ABC Council, and I want 4 contacts for this customer, there are 3 different sales people we talk to who are in charge of purchasing for different areas in the company. On top of that there will be an additional person, accounts payable, that requires the invoice we send.

I want to be able to add phone numbers for the extra contacts.

This is a must have feature. So annoying when you have to change the information each time.

If we can have the option of choosing the delivery address from a drop down list, it will be great.

Kelly, it’s been 7 months and an update is needed. I think it’s important to communicate regularly on the progress. You have indicated that you are WORKING ON THIS and therefor 7 months of programming should have even enough time to make this correction/improvement. I know that some of these requests need to be coded using a more modern platform but fur USER EXPERIENCE & LOYALITY Xero needs to communicate the progress.
Please check all the suggests you have commented on and PROVIDE AN UPDATE, even if the task has taken you longer than expected.

Come on Xero - you tick the boxes in so many ways but this function is a standard requirement for all business - not just those who take the time to contact you about it.

Another disbelief from me that this is not incorporated. Pull the finger out Xero

From what I have discovered, you need to pay a separate company for their interface which doesn't change the Xero accounts function, but gives you better options from the sales POV. Obviously disappointing when most of us were sold Xero on its "capabilities"... We are looking into Stock and Buy, Unleashed and Dear Systems.

I cannot believe this wasn't set up initially! Such an obvious business necessity🤯

HI
Any update on this?
Has anyone found an app in the market place as a work around?
We will need this when Xero fully integrates with Avatx

Hi Kelly,
I am yet another frustrated Xero user who needs the ability have have multiple address for a contact. We deal with many government departments with different contacts in various internal sections. Creating new contact records for each one as a workaround is just incredibly backwards.
Is there a timeline for the release of this feature?

This beginning to cause us more problems as time goes on. We have more clients with multiple locations and the only way to handle the addresses is to set up as a new client. And there is no link between them when there should be. Hurry up Xero!!
