Proforma Bill
Option to raise a supplier bill as a proforma bill
5 votesHi Lucy, thanks for sharing in the product ideas forum here. It'd be great to get more understanding of the needs for recording a bill as proforma in Xero.
Is there anyway entering the information as a Draft bill or even a purchase order could accommodate your needs here?

pre populated fields in bills
Ability to Select and Edit Auto Populated Fields
Recent updates to Xero’s bill upload functionality have introduced several inefficiencies in the auto population process.
Description Field:
Xero now pre populates the description field when bills are uploaded. The suggested text is not fit for purpose, as it includes unnecessary information—such as supplier name, the organisation’s own name, and invoice dates—which are already captured in other designated fields. In addition, the description field is restricted to a single line, resulting in all invoice line items being grouped together regardless of tax rate or account coding. This requires users to overwrite the…3 votesHi 👋 your idea is being looked into by our Community team. We'll be in touch soon to update you once your idea has been reviewed.

Bill Pay - Allica Bank to Crezco
Please can Xero provide the connection from Allica Bank to Crezco?
Allica is a very attractive bank for small businesses that use Xero, as they provide interest rate on business accounts that other banks mainly don't.

Purchase order - Change date formatting
why don't Xero have the same date format when entering the date across all aspects of the system.
Invoice format - DD/MM/YYYY
Projects format - DD/MM/YYYY
Bills format - DD/MM/YYYBUT
New Purchase Order format - MM/DD/YYYY
PPPPP.
5 votesThanks for sharing with us here, Nicholas - Is it possible your browser language is currently set to English(US). This maybe causing the formatting you're mentioning here and changing to English (UK) or (AUS) should help.

Microsoft Office fie support
It would be very helpful to be able to attach files in Excel & Word, not just a pdf!
1 voteHi Kevin, just to check is this when uploading bills to Xero?

consistent terminology for VAT
It would be good to have consistent terminology for VAT settings and drop down cells. System seems to flip between words tax and VAT.

Allow a company to select the columns and order they want for .csv payment files
At the moment we have to manipulate a .csv file in order to get it accepted by our bank. The .bacs file is useless because it doesn't pick up individual beneficiary references and the .csv has the wrong columns in the wrong order.
Systems I have used before allow you to 'map' your .csv output file in your company settings. You add the amount of columns you need and then choose what goes into each one.
Having this capability would mean it wouldn't matter what Bank you use, you would be able to use the .csv option without compromising the…

Match multiple payments to one bill quicker
Allow multiple payments to be matched to a bill quickly, in the same way multiple bills can be matched to one payment. I have a monthly Stripe bill, which is paid with around 70 small payments. When doing month end, this is really time consuming to go into each bank transaction, match to the bill and split the payment. I have to do this approx. 70 times for a £45 bill. Is there a way something could be set up either through the bank feed, cash coding screen, or in the bill itself, where you can currently enter the payment…

Why has the print icon been removed from the bills attachments screen?
Put back the print option on the screen where incoming bills are shown. I need to be able to print these bills to get them signed off. Removing this incredibly valuable tool for a pointless summary button is beyond frustrating. There is now no way for me to print the actual bill from within Xero - Cannot believe how short sighted this is.

Repeating bills - due date beyond the following month, and previous year placeholder
There is no way to put a due date as "end of the fourth month after bill date". For example, in the UK, you may enter a bill for Corporation Tax of £50,000 in April 2026, which is not due for payment until 31st January 2027. Please can you allow us to manually enter how many months after the bill date the bill is due.
Also, please add "Previous Year" as a placeholder. For example, a bill on 1st January 2026 may be for services provided in 2025. Only the current year is included in placeholders at present.1 voteHi 👋 your idea is being looked into by our Community team. We'll be in touch soon to update you once your idea has been reviewed.

Hi Yariv, just to get better understanding of your post here by XIP would this be our Xero Inventory Plus feature?
Would the request be that you're wanting Xero to automatically create an invoice once a purchase order has been fully billed?

Cursor in the Purchase Orders and Bills screens
Good day.
The cursor in the Purchase Orders as well as in the Bills screens in Xero is invisible when typing. The fields accept input, but the cursor does not display, which makes data capture difficult.
Kindly assist with resolving this issue.1 voteHi Natasha, could you share more detail about the field you're in within a Bill or Purchase order where you're unable to see the cursor?
We've recently released a new Purchase orders experience and can confirm the cursor should be visible when typing in fields here, and similarly when testing Bills quick view and Bill create or edit pages the cursor shows in each field.
It does sound like this maybe an issue best investigated with our Xero Support team directly.

Prepayments
This applies to sales and purchases.
I think Xero product ideas has been as effective as screaming into the void ... however that did not work so I will try Xero Product ideas.- Every time I have seen a Xero company use Prepayments it has been a ... mess.
- Users have prepayments going to various accounts, some with GST and some without and there are transactions in the Prepayments accounts that were not processed as Prepayments.
- You end up with prepayments scattered over the balance sheet, amounts in Prepayments that are not prepayments, and some have GST and some not.…
1 voteHi Alex, appreciate your feedback here and please know this is valued and does get attention from our teams. You'll see from the forums that there are many ideas for improvement that our customers feel could add value so the forums here help us understand and advocate for the idea that our community feels valuable.
I want to make sure I'm interpreting your idea here correctly - Rather than a change to the prepayment transactions it sounds like you'd like to restrict posting to the Account prepayments are posted to in the Chart of Accounts and would like a separate account that purchase v sales prepayment transactions are automatically posted to. Would this be right? Please do let me know if I'm misunderstanding.
