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.

Hi Kelly,
Can you please respond to the requests of users to have notifications for payments. When a payment is received an alert, ideally email, is sent to the user.
This seems to be a simply implementation, and users have been asking for many years.
Please respond.
Thanks,
Ryan -

Some of our customers have one central invoicing address with multiple delivery sites definitely a problem we have faced when using Xero

We sell to big corporates and universities. A big university has departments all over town and sometimes the country, but all with the same tax details. Currently, we must create a different account for each.
We also synchronise with Capsule CRM, which then means different customers for the same university or even the same person! This gets messy very quickly. Please allow multiple invoice addresses within one account. -

We also require something along these lines i.e. the ability to assign an individual in an organisation to a department such as, the PO contact, the accounts contact, the sales contact etc. So the system is intelligent enough to know when you are sending a PO, which emails to send it to and so on.
We have to essentially add the contact details right now, select include in emails and then try to remember who POs go to, who invoices go to and delete the unnecessary email addresses. Pretty tedious.

I personally think that Xero needs to add additional fields on the invoice template so you can manually input delivery addresses.
Some businesses work with multiple customers per day, but on a Cash basis and don't necessarily want to create a contact for each of the customers. So the ability to create a CASH Contact to invoice these clients on, and just add the delivery address and additional billing details if required would be great.
Like Pastel.

I have clients with different delivery addresses, home, office, depot etc. At the moment, I have to go to the customer detail screen, change the delivery address, create the invoice and go back to the customer screen to enter the main address again. My old system allowed multiple delivery addresses from a dropdown box. This was a sensible solution.

To be clear, not just ability to add multiple persons to a contact and send to all, it should allow the user to select the primary person (and email) from the list of persons associated with the contact, and optionally to select other persons from the list to copy in.

Hi,
This is not necessarily what I require....Multiple addresses etc.
I need additional fields in contacts, so I can store Nationality, D.O.B., Gender, Food Allergy, Medication.
This is important for some of my clients when using Xero.
Let me know as and when you develop.
Thanks -

I'm surprised this important/basic feature has been ignored for so long by Xero.

Hi Everyone, I also urgently need this feature building in as standard. I love Xero but my client is less than convinced due to this missing multiple delivery address feature. Hope it gets sorted soon !

Ability to access an address book when sending a quote.
Some clients have multiple managers and the quote doesn't always go to the same person nor to accounts. Currently we have to cut and paste the email address in from another piece of software. which is quite time consuming

Each account should be able to have a child account under its parent. I have clients with many sites under one umbrella, making it challenging to enter each site as a new customer.

Ability to change the customer address on unique invoices (so not always the address of the contact)

As a compnay we supply services to property managers but they need the invoice to go directly to their landlords, to have to create multiple contacts for all the individual properties for the same client would be really complicated and would mean we don't have a proper history for the client as all invoices would be spread across multiple contacts.

The ability to set up one customer with multiple delivery addresses is a pretty basic function and one that many other on line providers offer as standard. Please release this functionality ASAP.

We have customers that have different locations that we would like to bill them for.
