Upload Bills - OCR reader to itemise bill on bulk entry
It would be fantastic and much more efficient if the bulk uploading of bills allowed for the bills to be entered by individual line item.
At the moment it gives one line, without a description- with the grand total of the bill which defeats a lot of the purpose of being able to bulk upload bills, as they still need to be manually adjusted.
Xero have already shown it has the ability to extract data from a bill but haven't taken the feature to it's full potential2 votesHi Michelle thanks for sharing this with us here, can appreciate having the ability to itemise the bills on upload instead of just the one line. Currently this is possible via Hubdoc, you can read more about it here. We recommend raising a case with our support team for more details.

Email to bills > Email forwarding directly into Xero as draft bills
I would like the ability to set up an email forwarding rule so that any incoming invoices can be automatically forwarded to Xero and created as draft bills.
At the moment, there’s no verified mailbox or built-in process that allows this automation, meaning invoices have to be manually uploaded or sent from specific addresses.
Adding this feature would make invoice management faster, simpler, and far more cost-effective, as users wouldn’t need to subscribe to third-party apps or integrations just to achieve automatic forwarding.1 voteThanks for sharing your idea on setting up auto-forwarding to the bills inbox, and letting us know the changes that matter most for you.

Bills - Option to navigate pages of the Bills list from the top of screen
It'd be useful to have the ability to paginate from the top of the Bills list screen to avoid having to scroll down the page.
2 votesHi! Thanks for letting us know that you'd like an option to have this page selector at the top of the screen, rather than at the bottom.

Bills | New bill button - single click option
New Bill Button - Please bring back the single click New Bill button. Anywhere I click on the New Bill button gives me a dropdown menu, requiring mouse movement and a second click. I would expect this to function in the same way as the new invoice button where you can click on the button to generate a new bill or you can click on the arrow down to see the dropdown menu. Bring back the single click efficiency.
6 votesThanks for your feedback on this change, Patricia. Out of interest is there a particular reason or workflow for why you prefer to enter your bills manually rather than via an upload?
Appreciate, will take a little getting used to a different flow. A couple of other options for navigating to the new bill screen could also be;
- Using the keyboard shortcuts (Alt+Shift+N) from the bills screen
- Using the '+' icon in the navigation header to quickly Create a new Bill from any screen
- Using '/' and typing 'b' in the global search where you'll get the option of New bill from any screen
While we'll get a sense of interest in this through your idea, we want to be open that there aren't any plans for changing this back.

Bills - Quick link to the Draft tab after importing
You have today added a great new feature - the ability to upload Accounts Payable invoices to generate the Draft transaction.
Can I suggest that you have a look at the options available after the invoice has been approved, to then quickly navigate back to the Draft Bills.
This is because it's likely that we upload in batches then approve, however to navigate back to Draft to pick up the next invoice takes quite a few steps!

Billable Expenses - View the bills assigned to paid invoices
It would very useful and save a lot of time if we were able to see the bills that had been assigned to Invoices after the invoice has been paid, rather than having to manually go through each and every bill.

Bills - Notify the submitter when a bill is not approved or requires changes
If a bill is submitted for approval and it is not correct; I should be able to send it back so the responsible person can fix it.

Email-to Bills - Use the contact's default currency
When sending invoices to Xero email address, the currency defaults incorrectly instead of taking the currency already set for the contact. We expected the contact’s currency to be applied automatically at the stage of creating the invoice, but this is not happening.
3 votesHi team, we appreciate the feedback we've received on the application of defaults from you here.
Our team have picked this up and are working to enable the capability for Contact defaults to be applied when using email to bills to create a draft bill in your organisation. I'll be back to share more detail around this functionality when released 😊

Bills - Awaiting Payment bills summary by supplier
Bills - View bills awaiting payment summarised by supplier with the ability to expand supplier to view invoices and select individually or make changes if required.
You need to use the awaiting payment screen to create batch payments. To make payments you have to select each individual invoice for a supplier which takes time and is inefficient.
Having the ability to view the awaiting payment screen showing summary (total) for the supplier would be helpful. You can still filter dates so you can see everything owed to a supplier within date range. Much like an Aged Payables report. You can…

Bills - Automatically adjust the date on imported draft bills to a set date
We use Xero on top of a project management system (Deltek PIM) which generates employee expenses and supplier invoices. When we export them to Xero they sit as draft bills which we approve. If users of PIM enter an invoice/expense for a prior period, the transaction has to be redated in Xero to prevent it changing the historic management accounts. My suggestion is that there is an option within Draft Bills that would redate draft transaction dates (before posting) to a given date, say 1st of the open period.

Bills to Pay - Duplicate bills notification but they are different dates
Bills are listed as 'duplicate' even tho they are monthly recurring bills so even tho the amounts are the same, the dates are different. Is there any way of these monthly bills not being listed as 'duplicate'. wastes a lot of time checking.

Emails to BIlls - Auto capture the bill as tax exclusive
You can set your company preference to tax exclusive or tax inclusive, but the Xero email bills to Xero function does not follow the company settings and always puts to tax inclusive. Can this be as per the company settings? Eg we would like it to always be tax exclusive.

Bills - Change file name when downloading bills
It would be really handy when downloading bills if the default file name is the Reference [invoice] number and not a random internal Xero reference or document ID. Even better would be Supplier name + Reference [invoice] number

Bills - Filter bills list by account code
On Xero bills, as well as being able to filter and search for purchase invoices by contact or invoice reference, being able to search by a nominal code would be helpful. For example, making a payment run for all of one type of cost; finding any invoices that have not been allocated properly or for finding amounts that need to be included in management accounts.

Display Supplier Contact Group - under Bills to Pay screen
That would be great to make the Contact group field visible on the Bills to Pay screen to let us filter to certain contact groups when we are preparing a payment file.
We use the contact groups for example to mark suppliers that are paid by Direct Debit, so this would be a useful feature to filter them out and do not pick their invoices up for a BACS payment.
We also have another group of suppliers within the contact groups that we pay at once on the same day of each month so we would be able to easily…

Invoicing - Increase the number of billable expenses shown on the selection screen
Xero decided to limit the number of billable expenses one can view at a time when invoicing to 10, as was explained to me, because some organizations have a large number of billable expenses and it taxes the system and slows down the process of invoicing if more than 10 show. The exact opposite effect happens, however. Now, one has to page through dozens of windows to find the billable expense, instead of simply scrolling through 100+ bills. Even worse, there is no way to sort the bills, so the target of the invoice may be on page 36 taking…
2 votesHey Scott, really appreciate your feedback on our update here. We want to be transparent that the change to billable expenses in invoicing was something that we implemented due to lots of feedback that we received, and we don't have intentions on returning to the previous behaviour. On review, we first marked this as feedback based on it being a removal of a new feature, however we will shift this to Not in Pipeline to set expectation.
This means other members will still be able to vote on this idea, and we can track if this is still an idea that trends.

Bills - Add planned payment date from inside the bill with a default of the due date.
Add planned pay date automatically as the due date or add a field into the bill entry screen so that you dont have to go back and add it from the bill list view.
Just a suggestion which i think lots of people would find helpful. It would give real time data from the bill screen and saves going into the bill list to add the planned payment date for the categories at the top to populate correctly.
I I believe that this enhancement would be beneficial for many users, as it would definitely save time by reducing the number…
3 votesHey Sarah, thanks for your suggestion to add a planned pay date field directly on the bill entry screen.

Repeating Bills - Change 'Next bill date' to 'Create bill date'
I have wasted HOURS of my time trying to figure out how to get repeating bills to show up. Would be extremely helpful if instead of "Next Bill Date" you say "create bill date" or "generate bill date" which is what I finally figured out it actually IS. "Next bill date" in this instance is very confusing; it's natural to put in the bill date for the following month.

Bills - Increase limit on amount of attachments
Would it please be possible to increase the amount of attachments that can be saved against a bill. At the moment it will allow us to attach more that 50 items but when it saves it only saves the first 50 and removes the rest.
I realise there are ways round this eg by attaching an e-mail with multiple items attached within it, but it's then more time consuming when trying to find specific attachments3 votesThanks for sharing your idea and highlighting the changes that matter most to you!
