Purchase orders - Ability to edit and delete delivery address
We need to be able edit the pre-existing delivery address within the PO, which we used to be able to do. Prior to the changes made, we could edit, delete and add a pre-existing delivery address within the PO. For example, we have a delivery address which was created prior to the changes made, to which we assigned a contact person, tel nbr and lengthy delivery instruction. That delivery address now has a new contact site manager / tel nbr, nothing else has changed, but we cannot edit the delivery address within the PO, we have to make up a…

New Purchase Order View - Add and remove addresses manually
The new PO rollout has removed the ability to add AND SAVE an address manually.
Previously we could manually add an address and SAVE IT - meaning that it could be re-used while needed. Now we can only add a "Once-off" addressAs a builder, we send PO's with Site addresses, not addresses existing within our saved Contacts.
This means I now have to either create a "Contact" just for a Site address
OR
Manually type the Site address EVERY SINGLE TIME I create a POWe URGENTLY need the ability to create, save and eventually remove manual addresses within…

Purchase order - Ability to format Delivery address
What have you done to purchase orders? the delivery instructions are now all in one line, whereas we had them in separate lines to match our template. I suppose I now need to recreate one and then check to see how it comes out on our existing template. We've had no notice that these were going to change. The info is way too big now, like with the invoices. The Dashboard was bad enough. Why do you have to keep changing things for no purpose?
22 votesThanks for the continued engagement with this idea, everyone. Taking on board feedback we're receiving on the new experience our product team are looking into the formatting of the delivery address atm. I'll share more news around this with you all, here.

Purchase orders - Change Delivery address without having to edit
When copying from invoice to purchase orders the following items are an issue.
1) ITEM CODE NOT POPULATED TO PURCHASE ORDER
2) COMPANY NAME FROM CONTACTS IS NOT POPULATING IN DELIVERY ADDRESS
3) CAN NOT EDIT DELIVERY ADDRESS ON PURCHASE ORDER IF REQUIRED
4) LAYOUT NOT CORRECT ON DELIVERY ADDRESS ONCE CONFIRMED, IT SHOULD BE LINE BY LINE.
5) CAN NOT COPY PURCHASE ORDER FROM INVOICE.
See example attached.
18 votesHi team, just coming back around to this idea it actually turns out we have an existing one around being able to edit that you may all like to join here and I have recently updated - Our product team are working on some changes to this at present and I'll share more news here.
Also listening to the feedback around the company name population our team are digging into this a little deeper to see if there are improvements we can make for this. I'll update this idea title so we can keep you updated on this feature here. Thanks !

New Purchase Order View - Reduce whitespace
New Purchase Orders View - Improvement Suggestions
- Wide Screen is mentally straining and mostly irrelevent spaced out look over around 1400px; give a narrower screen width option please.
- Alternate line colourings may help
- Auto new-line/next-line is no longer working. Previously, pressing enter on a product made a default 1 item entry and opened a new line. This was a little unreliable, but clicking the correct product in the search also worked and cleanly. This action change is adding one more click to almost every line.
- Save and Send button should be at the bottom too -…20 votesHi team, while we appreciate hearing your feedback on the new purchase orders experience we do request that each post be limited to a single idea to help other members know what they're voting for, as well as sharing back with our product teams and considering changes. I've updated the title of the idea here around the whitespace and welcome you to create new ideas for other specifics you'd like to see.
To provide an update around the attachments - our team recently implemented a change to move the placement of this button to the top of the page next to Save and Approve options.
Relating to lines - with how this new experience now works when you add an item, or enter an amount in a line the Quantity will default to '1', also adding an item will automatically add a new row beneath. Thanks

Purchase order - Apply supplier defaults
What's happened to the purchase orders, you've made them harder to navigate.
- Firstly the delivery address has NO option to edit, delete etc once it's been created - we need this option as sometimes the contact/tel nbr or instructions change for the site delivery addresses.
- Secondly, we used be able to tab across to the account and it used to bring up the account code automatic assigned to that supplier, now it doesn't do that. We have to select account description each time, despite it being a default under the supplier/contact.
- We can no longer attach any…17 votesThanks for the extra details, Maria.
Our product team are working on some updates for the Delivery address right now and I've added you as a voter to this idea to keep you updated on the work. 🙂
Also I'm pleased to share that supplier defaults is under development with our team atm, too! Will share more on this here.

Purchase order - Centre product line
Please change the Purchase Order screen, back to the way it was. Having the product line centred and smaller was easier on the eye. The delivery instructions window is now ridiculously small, and you cannot read the instructions all at once. Horrible change.
If it ain't broke, don't fix it!13 votesHi team, we do appreciate hearing your feedback on the new Purchase orders experience. In order for our product teams to get a good understanding of the direct changes that our customers would like to see, as well as help others in community understand what they've voting for we ask that each idea be created as a separate post. I've updated the title of the idea here to reflect the first point that Carl noted around the centring of the product line. We welcome you to each create a new idea for each change you'd like to see.

We do PO from excel that then is a PDF. It would be really helpful if purchase orders can be uploaded like bills?

linking purchase order numbers with projects and auto reconciling
it would be ideal if purchase orders were linked to bills when they are uploaded, which then is also linked to projects, this would automatically add it to the relevant project as an expense

Purchase orders - Leave delivery telephone number blank
Why does the delivery telephone number autofill with the business telephone number?
I put the delivery name and number in the attention field of the delivery address in contacts. When the purchase order autofilled the name, with the name and number, I have been cuting and pasting the number across from the name field to the telephone field.
Now new purchase orders is auto filling the telephone field with the business number which is not always the delivery phone number!
It looks like the contacts part of xero needs to have a dedicated place for a delivery phone number for…

Purchase Orders - Option to review and edit draft bills from PO link
⭐Description:
In the previous version of Xero, after we clicked Copy PO → Bill, the system would first open the draft bill screen, allowing us to:
review the details
edit the invoice number
adjust line items if needed
and then submit the bill for approval
This workflow was very efficient, especially for businesses handling a high volume of purchase orders.
However, after the recent Xero update, when we use Copy PO → Bill, the system now:
immediately marks the PO as PO – Billed,
automatically creates the draft bill in the background,
and does not open the draft bill screen…

Purchase Orders
Please revert back to the original format of the Purchase Orders, I have no idea why you felt this needed to be improved and has caused more issues
The viewing of the PO is far too big and makes my head hurt, can't save a PO without putting every detail in which we don't always have until later
Not saving projects in the draft PO unless all details entered, which we could do before on the old format
Can't just approve and copy to Invoice anymore need to go back into the PO for a second time which is unnecessary

Purchase Orders - Quickly duplicate line items
As a Procurement Officer or Small Business Owner, I want to quickly duplicate an existing line item while creating or editing a Purchase Order, So that I can save time when entering multiple similar items that only require minor adjustments (like different tracking categories or descriptions).

Purchase order - Include attachments when copying to an invoice
It would be useful to have attached documents flow through to the invoice that's created when using copy to.

Purchase Orders - Posting to General Ledger
The functionality to be able to raise and approve a Purchase Order which, at the point of approval, would create a double entry in the general ledger. Specifically:
• Debit a Work in Progress (WIP) expenses account (to reflect anticipated expenditure),
• Credit a creditors account (to reflect the anticipated liability).
This would allow the PO to reflect a commitment in the accounts, enabling better management of Work In Progress and projected costs before the supplier invoice arrives.
In an ideal world, to be able to allocate the PO to a Xero Project, so that WIP and anticipated costs appear…
19 votesHi Tristan, thanks for sharing such a detailed and well-thought-out suggestion. We appreciate you taking the time to explain the specific accounting impact and how this would improve financial visibility.

Attaching files to purchase order - have to save/approve now
We can no longer attach any files at the creating stage of a purchase order, the PO has to be saved or approved before anything can be attached, then it throws you back to the purchase order listing and you have to go back in to save anything. In the old version, we used to be able to attach files during the initial creation. Please could your developers look at this and fix this.

Purchase Orders - merge
We send individual purchase orders to a supplier over the course of a month, and the supplier sends one invoice at the end of the month. Currently, I can't create an invoice from the POs as it will provide me with a separate invoice for each separate PO. It would be handy to be able to merge either the POs or the invoices so that the final result matches the supplier invoice.

Allow Specific Supplier Email Address/s for Purchase Orders
Emailing POs to every email in the supplier contact details does not make sense.
We should be able to select emails for each supplier to connect to each type of document or email.
For some suppliers, one email may be used for all, for others, each email is for a different department. Remittences go to accountsreceivable@, Purchae Orders to orders@, bills to accountspayable@ - you get the idea.The new layout have made this worse by making deleting all the existing emails harder, but let's fix the root problem... allow selecting a PO email for each suppliuer and using this…
