ADD A BUTTON TO COPY LINE PLEASE

Hi, I would like to duplicate the whole line below or above the line I'm at or whatever line I want rather dragging all the way from the bottom to the top.

Hi there,

I would like to duplicate the whole line. Item, Description, Qty, everything.
I would then only have to amend the date and/or quantity, instead of creating a new line and having to input all of the same info again.
I would then be able to drag that Line to where I needed it.

1. Ability to duplicate a line/line item within an invoice AND bill so that it doesn't have to be entered again and again. This will go a long way to streamlining cost allocation.

2. Loadable internal templates for bills and invoices to be entered for the businesses who layout complex invoices/bills.

So disappointing that Xero keep on increasing their fees (has nearly doubled since I started) and yet they can't address no-brainer ideas like this. Things like this should just be implemented regardles of how many "votes" they receive. It's common sense.

Submitted 2022 and still cant duplicate a line?

Yes, please, being able to easily duplicate a line item in an invoice would be helpful for merchants who have invoices where a single inventory item is sold by weight at a number of different weights on the same invoice.

Unable to add item line between the lines in the edit bill template.

Like many others in the comments, being able to duplicate a line in an invoice seems like a simple function that is still not available after being raised more than 3 years ago. Do any of the product ideas end up in the product as this is one of many simple requests that I have gone to log, only to find 100's in some cases have requested the same years ago and it is still not available. New features seem to keep being developed to provide more bells and whistles while the basics are STILL not being covered even after your customers continuously request them.

saves time when listing the same product over and over in a multiple product invoice with different prices!!
A basic function thats essential in our environment..

This seems like a very basic action to program in. So frustrating and unbelievable that it isn't available. It would save a lot of time for both our AP & AR functions if we could duplicate line items and tweak them as necessary. The fact that Xero overhauled invoicing and didn't include this feature is beyond me.

I 100% support this basic functionality request, as it would be great for splitting lines on a bill into different tracking categories.

This version of the idea was submitted in 2016, so I can't believe it hasn't been actioned yet.

This would save so much time, rather than re-entering the same lines over and over again

Fn key to copy field entry from previous line. How is this not standard functionality?
I used to implement a leading enterprise accounting solution that could do this 25 years ago.

This is not so much for the duplication of line items, as they are already duplicated throughout export from a third-party operational system where we submit our "jobs" (contents of said line items) -
but, I am allocating account codes / job numbers / divisions to numerous item/price lines on ONE bill for each individual "job" - if they are all going to the same places, is there a function to automatically allocate each line/job on the invoice to the same codes without manually entering every single one?

Hello - this is so obvious!
It's really needed in the Reconciliation forms too.
Really disappointed that this is missing given how much we are paying per month.

For entering the same data across different locations, this should be a basic function. When might this be available?

this is critical - being able to copy the line above - it is basics

For example, in Sage, a simple strike of a function key will duplicate the relevant entry above. For those of us who enter a lot of data, this would save a huge amount of time.
