Bills - Allow setting a default bank account and date when recording manual bill payments
The 'date paid' should default to current.
The 'from account' should default to last used for that contact1 voteHi Brett, thanks for sharing this suggestion. We understand you’re looking for the ability to keep a default bank account and payment date when recording manual bill payments.
Having these fields retained could help make high-volume bill processing smoother and reduce repetitive steps when entering multiple payments.
I’ve updated this idea to Gaining Support so we can continue gathering feedback and examples from the community.

Jax - Allow Jax to automatically attach pdfs from the Files section
Jax is showing great promise but we need to be able to attach PDFs/photos easily. There is another product suggestion where you can drag and drop a pdf which is good. However a much better method would be that you simply upload all pdfs to the Files section, or add via photos in the Xero app. Xero then scans these documents and makes them available to Jax, Jax is then able to match document to reconciled line and then attach automatically.
That is real automation and would be amazing.
2 votesHi Stuart, glad to hear you're liking JAX so far. Thanks for sharing your idea, and letting us know the changes that matter most for you. We'll move this idea to gain more support from the community. We'll monitor this space for more traction. Cheers!

Bills - Option to deselect 'Action' column
please remove ACTION column under bills tab - don't push your products on your customers. It is a real turn off. The check mark under the column is greyed out. Let your customers remove please. Right now it isn't possible.

Bills | Quick view - Option to Remove & send to files library when deleting a file
Fix/Restore ability to download bill attachments to Files library. Apparently this useful function was removed in a recent update. Previously if you clicked to delete an attachment, you would receive a choice to download the bill to the Files library or delete it; now it just deletes it.
1 voteThanks for the feedback, Roy. It sounds like you're trying to do this from the quick view 'eye' icon which will open the bill while still viewing in the list of bills.
I've updated the title of your idea to add this function to this quick view.
However, for the time being if you'd like to save a file to the library before removing you'll still be able to do this by clicking into the bill where the option to 'Remove & save to the file library' still exists. 🙂

Allow user to associate/assign unbilled expenses to a customer
Certain client-related expenses are tax deductible even if we don't bill the customer for reimbursement. Allow user to associate/assign unbilled expenses to a customer. Quickbooks has this feature.

Billable Expenses - View the bills assigned to paid invoices
It would very useful and save a lot of time if we were able to see the bills that had been assigned to Invoices after the invoice has been paid, rather than having to manually go through each and every bill.
5 votesThanks for sharing this idea about how you'd like to see the Billable Expenses feature improved.
Now it's up to the community to get behind and support your idea. Make sure to share it with any colleagues that this could benefit, so they can add their votes and comments about how this would be helpful for them, too.

Bills - Auto save
Auto Save to draft
Quotes
Invoices
BillsTo often data is entered then lost as you move away from a page before you are finished if not saved you loose it all. This becomes time consuming to re-enter all data.
3 votesHi Rossco, auto save is already within invoices in Xero, however I want to be open that we don't have any plans at this point of implementing this across other areas of Xero.
For Bills maybe another way to save you time could be to upload or email bills to your organisation so Xero does a lot of the manual work for you.
Here in Product ideas it helps for each post to be related to a singular idea for one feature - this ways it's clear what others are adding their vote to and we can best keep you updated on any progress.
I'll update your post here for Bills, and have added your vote to this idea in Quotes.

Xero Accounting app - Send remittance advice
Add the ability to send remittance advice from the mobile app.
I find do most of my nightly accounting on the couch in my living room with this app - brilliant - but still have to go into the office just to do the remittance! Annoying.
Couldn’t we just do it from the app please?
10 votesHi, just a quick update on this.
Although the mobile app doesn't have this feature right now, feel free to share this idea with any colleagues that this could also benefit. They can add their votes and comments about how this would help them, too.

Hubdoc - Automatically extract or split tips and gratuities from receipts
Please create an automatic tip function ideally with Hubdoc.
I'd be really grateful if there was a way to simplify tipping in the Purchase/Bill module. As it stands the total amount is transferred from Hubdoc to Xero. I have to:
1. hit edit
2. switch tax inclusive to tax exclusive
3. edit the bill amount to the pre-tax value
4. add a line
5. type "tip", add 1, add tip amount, change tax rate from standard (Entertainment) to Tax on Purchase (o%)
6. Hit 'Update'.THEN I can fill out the apply payment line.
Ideally, Hubdoc would identify a tip…1 voteThank you for submitting your idea and specifying the improvements you would like to see.

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.
7 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.

Bills - Add planned payment date from inside the bill with a default of the due date.
Add planned pay date automatically as the due date or add a field into the bill entry screen so that you dont have to go back and add it from the bill list view.
Just a suggestion which i think lots of people would find helpful. It would give real time data from the bill screen and saves going into the bill list to add the planned payment date for the categories at the top to populate correctly.
I I believe that this enhancement would be beneficial for many users, as it would definitely save time by reducing the number…
9 votesHi everyone, following up in this idea I'd like to share an update that may be helpful to some people here.
We have now released Quick view in the Bills list that enables you to easily see, review and take action on your bills without moving away from the list view. Meaning you can quickly add a Planned date when viewing bills in your organisation.
There are also many useful options to efficiently create bills in Xero rather than manual entry like; email to bills, bills upload and our new Smart document capture feature that's in the process of rollout.
The Create bills page is something we'll look to develop overtime however I don't have any timeframes to share on this right now. I'll keep you updated if there are further changes planned to help you here.

Bills - Add 'Make Payment' option available in Canada for 'Bills'.
In Canada, 'Make Payment' button is not available in 'Bills'. It would be nice to make payment directly from the Bills instead making payment from the bank.
6 votesThanks, Urjit for submitting your idea!
We've taken a look, and it's now ready for the Xero community to rally behind. Other users can now vote and offer their thoughts on how this could enhance their own Xero journey.

Purchase order - Show supplier aged balance when entering PO
Surface supplier aged balances during Bill and Purchase Order creation
When creating Bills or Purchase Orders, there is currently no visibility of a supplier’s outstanding or overdue balance without leaving the workflow to run reports.
This creates unnecessary friction between Finance and Purchasing teams, with buyers frequently needing to ask questions like “What do we owe this supplier?” or “Is their account overdue?” Finance teams are then forced to interrupt their work to manually check balances.
Proposed improvement:
Display a supplier aged balance summary (Current / 30 / 60 / 90+) directly on the Bill and PO entry screens once…1 voteThanks for sharing how this would be useful to you here, Charmaine.
As we have multiple product teams working across Xero it really helps for us to have ideas for each feature tracked separately in the forums here that we can consider and keep you updated through.
I've split your idea so we can track the interest in seeing this detail on a Purchase order, and another for viewing this within Bills across here.
This isn't something we have plans for at present but will track the interest and update if there are any plans made.

Batch Payments - Keep multiple payments to the same payee as separate lines
Currently when creating batch payment files, multiple bills to the same payee are combined into a single line with only one set of bank payment details (although they appear separate on the batch payment screen in Xero).
Sometimes different bank reference details are needed for each payment, and sending the details in a remittance advice is inappropriate - it would be helpful if the lines could remain separate rather than combined so that unique bank reference details could be added against each line for the same payee

Bill Payments - Copy documents attached to a "Bill to Pay" entry into the bill payment transaction.
Currently, documents (invoices) that are attached to a "Bill to Pay" entry do not copy over to the bill payment transaction at reconciliation. You have to go to the (reconciled) account transaction and manually add the same documents again !
I'm told by xero this is because the Bill to Pay and actual bill payment are 2 separate transactions and the "documents" icon and process apply only to the transaction being processed at the time.
This is silly. It is doing the same thing twice - and requires you remember to do it anyway!
I thought automation was designed to…5 votesThanks for sharing this suggestion, Richard.
We appreciate you letting us know about the changes that matter to you. We've reviewed your idea for having documents attached to a bill automatically copy over to the final bill payment transaction. We can see how this would save a lot of time and remove the current double-handling of having to attach the same file again post-reconciliation.
This idea is now open to gain support from other members of the community. Along with votes, others can now comment to share more detail on how this improved workflow would help their experience with Xero. 🙂

Bills - Add an option to hide or remove the Memo line on printed Cheque layouts
Allow users to remove or hide the memo line on check-style bill payments. Many businesses do not use the memo field, and it takes up unnecessary space on the check layout. Providing an option to disable or remove the memo line would simplify the check format and allow the check stub to display more relevant information such as vendor details, invoice numbers, or payment references. This would make the check layout more flexible and better suited to different business workflows.
1 voteHi Kevin, thanks for sharing this suggestion. Having the option to hide or remove the memo line on printed cheques could make the cheque layout more adaptable.
A simple layout setting to control this would give more flexibility over what is shown on cheque vouchers, especially where sensitive or internal information is involved.
We’ll continue tracking the feedback and interest shared here.

Hubdoc - Navigation have a direct link from purchases and bills.
For organisations that have an active Hubdoc organisation, it would be helpful from a workflow perspective to:
1. Have a link from the main purchases dropdown menu direct to Hubdoc; and
2. On the various Bills tabs, have a link to HubdocThis would provide a trigger for users to remember there may be Bills needing approval/processing in Hubdoc; and even as a cross promotion for Hubdoc.

Bills - Sort bills by 2 or more variables
Sorting tool seems to be only for one criteria. It would be great to be able to sort bills by due date, then supplier or contact alphabetically as the 2nd sort request.
