  2. Ability to add a mark-up in the billable expense.

    Purpose: Because some clients will ask additional expenses to users’, this will help them easily add mark-up price in their expenses.

    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. 

  3. 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.

  4. 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.

  5. 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.

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

    Purpose: Because some companies have more than 1 directors/managers, so this feature will improve users’ workflow in approving the bills within Xero.

  9. 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.

  11. When creating a bill from a new file it appears the only option is to save to draft .. this is a double entry process that in many cases is unnecessary .. is there an option to save/approve the bill in the first step rather than saving to draft bill?

  12. The Upload Bills widget would be far more efficient if it were relocated to the Approve screen rather than its current location.

    As many users have already commented (before comments on this topic were closed), the current design requires multiple unnecessary clicks to upload each new bill. This slows down what is otherwise a repetitive, high-volume task.

    The most logical place for the Upload Bills button is alongside the Approve button. When processing multiple supplier invoices, the natural workflow is:

    Review the current bill.
    Approve it.
    Immediately upload the next bill.

    Having the upload option available at the point of…
