Purchase Order - Customisable purchase order tracking
Could customisable tracking fields be added to PO's. There are several steps in our business between SENT and then BILLED. the only way we can track this is using a spreadsheet as when looking at a PO in XERO we can not easily check status. Using the Notes is too slow and awkward.
As an example: We send a PO to Supplier; Items are then Collected by a courier (this could be weeks or months later); Items then Delivered to Customer (also delay here of months). By allowing us to have customised tracking fields we can then update the PO…1 voteThanks for sharing this here Paolo. We understand that a lot goes on between when the purchase order is created and fulfilled. At the moment, while there are no extra statuses, you can use tracking categories if you're not using them already. You can fill in the first tracking category as Collected by courier etc and the other tracking category would be delivered to the customer. While this is just a suggestion, we will open this idea up to the community to gain more support. Cheers

Xero Network - Send purchase order via the network
Xero to xero network - send purchase orders. Want to be able to send my regular supplier a Xero Purchase order via Xero network, who can then create a bill in their Xero, who can then send me their Invoice via Xero network. Would be super helpful given the start of the workflow is typically the purchase order.
5 votesThanks for your idea, Paul. Great to hear you find using the Xero network helpful in your workflow.
We'll gauge the interest from the community in expanding the use of the network to send purchase orders. This isn't something we have plans for at this stage but we'll let you know if there are any updates.

Purchase Orders - Approval for amended purchase orders
Since the option is there to amend a PO once it's been approved would it be possible to add a requirement for POs where the value has been increased to have to be re-approved?
6 votesAppreciate why you may want to review a Purchase order if it has been edited once raised, Jenni.

Inventory Plus - Create a Purchase Order directly from an open Sales Order
Currently, this process is separate so you have to recreate the sales order as a purchase order to send to a vendor to fulfill. Instead, next to each item on the Sales Order, or at the top to create a single PO for all items, you could create a Purchase Order. This would put the Sales Order in process and save a step.
5 votesThanks for sharing this idea. As you're aware, it's possible to duplicate a Sales Order to create another, but you can't copy it to a Purchase Order right now.
We've reviewed your idea and now it's up to the community to get behind and support it. Make sure you share your idea with any colleagues that this could benefit so they can add their votes and comments too!

Xero Accounting App - Purchase orders in app search feature for tracking
I create a purchase order through the Xero App
I go to Categorise to an account - on my iPhone it has a search accounts feature, on my colleagues Samsung phone there is no search feature - he has to scroll through all the accounts listed to find the correct accounting code
Will this feature be added to Samsung phones?We also found this was the same when selecting Projects or Plant (tracking categories), on my iPhone I had a search feature, on his Samsung he did not and again would have to scroll through the extensive list we have…

Purchase Orders - Make all fields mandatory
Purchase Orders - It would be most helpful when generating a purchase order, that all fields are made compulsory so that people can't save the purchase order until all fields have been completed. Thanks
7 votesHi Tessa, it'll be good to get a sense if there are others in community that are looking for this too.
Right now, to avoid your purchase orders going out without all the necessary detail you may want to consider giving some users Invoice Only - Draft permission.

Purchase Orders - Import from an Excel file
Can we add a function to import purchase order from excel file? We have had it as import bill already, but it is not enough because we need to use the PO function in Xero. However, it is time consuming and many mistakes due to manually entering our PO. It would be great if we can import from excel for both bill and PO function.

Purchase Orders - Option to part-receive
Receiving part orders. No "back order" capability. So what is the point of using purchase orders when you can't change to a "Bill" if only part of the order has been sent/received?
135 votesHi everyone, development for being able to partially bill / part receive purchase orders is well underway. The intention is when you create a bill from a purchase order you'll be able to enter the amounts of each item you'd like to bill.
On your Approved purchase order you'll also be able to view amount of items Billed.
We look forward to updating you again as soon as this feature launches. 😁

Purchase Orders - Expand column width to show longer PO numbers
The PO number space under Purchase Order View is limited, we cannot view our full PO number, refer to picture
Please extend the column, else Xero should restrict the maximum allowance length for PO number format.

Purchase Order - Change Contact when copying to Invoice
Have also the change payee option, From copying the Purchase order to Invoice, so the customer from PO will remain in supplier contact lists only.
3 votesHi team, appreciate why you'd like to be able to identify the Contact that the invoice should be created for when copying a PO to an invoice.
This isn't something we have planned changes of right now but will continue to track interest through this idea.
In the meantime, as soon as the invoice is created you should be able to click the 'x' next to the contact name to quickly remove and search the contact you'd like this entered for.

Xero Inventory Plus: Purchase Order Templates
In Xero I’m able to use my purchase order templates that I created with docx.

Purchase Orders - Update the Send Email options
Purchase Orders Send Email Features.
This is to request the Product team to please also update the Send Email settings for the Purchase Order to make work efficient and clear to multiple recipients if they are only on CC.
Attached the screenshot of the latest update Xero had made for Invoice Send Email in which the CC and BCC is in the sending option. It is very helpful for the multiple receiver where in the business communication, we need to CC multiple emails than putting every email in the sending to space.2 votesHi team, as part of the work we're doing in the new Purchase orders experience the team will be bringing the same send experience from invoicing into the purchase orders send.
This means features like the ability to CC and BCC when sending a Purchase order will soon be possible 😁
I'll swin back to confirm once this is delivered so you can start making use.

Purchase order - Compare purchase order amounts raised with budgeted accounts
For Purchase Orders:
1) Able to assign departmental head for approval ( email goes to manager for approval and they can click and approve ) . Can create a approval level all from Xero to email.
2) Able to see budget against PO , once budget uploaded approver or procurer can see department or nominal account budget before approval.
2 votesAppreciate your idea, Sadan. Sort of 2 different requests in the one here.
We have an existing idea for being able to assign a user that can approve purchase order that you may like to join and vote for.
I'll slightly update the title of this idea to reflect the request to compare with budgeted amounts. We don't have any plans for this right now, but will get a sense of the interest to begin with through this idea.

Xero Accounting app - Automatically assign the next Purchase Order number
When using the Xero app from your phone, to have the Purchase Order numbers auto generate the number.
Currently, we have to look back and previous purchases to find the last used PO....unless you have a great memory. And then, while creating a new purchase order, we have to enter the new number.
Currently, we also need to select as an optional detail, the order number. It would be nice if the app created a new PO number, sequentially from the previous PO issued.
The two attachments show when creating new PO, the first screen. Then I need to add…2 votes -
