    Hi team, appreciate your interest of this idea. While we don't have direct development for this planned right now we wanted to share a workaround that may help you here. 

    When adding the billable expenses to an invoice, you can override the unit price. Using Xero's inbuilt calculator, you include margin/mark-up by multiplying the unit price by the percentage you wish to mark up. 

    We understand this doesn't cover all situations of needs expressed. We will continue to monitor this idea and share if there's any progress. 

  5. Ability to allocate credit notes to a customer.

    Purpose: To save users’ time rather than having to manually go into the Billable Expenses, outstanding report, find the original invoice and edit it to remove from recharging the client.

  6. Ability to merge multiple bills from one supplier into one bill.

    Purpose: To combine bills related to a single source or event, and show a link between. Also saves time from having to recreate lines from an existing bill in another.

    Hey community, thanks for your sharing and supporting this idea.

    We wanted to share for those that may not already know - right now you can combine multiple bills to mark them as paid in a single batch payment? Bills display separately in Xero, but bills for the same supplier are combined in the payment file, so each supplier receives a single payment and reference.  Appreciate that this may not help for all workflows of those who voted for this idea so we'll continue to monitor interest and feedback on the idea.

  7. Ability to change the date of paid bill.

    Purpose: To make it easier for users rather than going through the process of unreconcile the transaction, change the date and reconcile the bill again.

  9. Ability to approve bills by more than one user in Xero.

  12. Ability to add a second reference field.

    Purpose: Because when importing invoices from another system, it generates a unique invoice number, and the actual supplier's invoice number is used as the second reference.

    Hi everyone, currently our product team in the bills space are focused on the modernisation of Bills, upgrading technology. 

    Over the coming months you'll see some visual changes as we build and release these updates to Bills. 

    While entry of a Bill and contacts will come this is not the core focus atm. We'll move the idea here back to Submitted and will let you know when there's movement.

    Hi everyone, thanks for feeding back to us here. Understand the rationale for wanting to be able to apply discounts on bills in Xero, similar to how you can with Sales invoices. This is something our team would like to develop into bills, however there are a few other important pieces of work that need attention first. So, for the time being we'll leave this as Submitted but as soon as there's movement we'll update you of any change through the idea here. Thanks!

  15. To see deferring expenses of bills that’s spread out over time.

    Purpose: To save time posting manual reversal journals and users’ can get the ‘economic value’ figure easily.
