Inventory - Update unit prices from a future date
ABILITY TO AUTOMATICALLY CHANGE ITEM PRICE ON A SPECIFIC DATE
Obviously item prices vary and when we give customers notice of a price change, sometimes this is months in advance. Now I know I could add a note to the item, but seriously, this would mean checking the notes for every item which would become very tiresome + time consuming.
I would like the ability to be able to go into a line item and be able to change the price of the item on a specific date, so that it when that date comes the item price has automatically…11 votesHi Kirstie
Thanks for sharing this idea about setting future prices for inventory items.
It's now up to the community to get behind and support your idea. Other members can now add their votes and comments about how this could also benefit them.
In the meantime, you'd need to edit the price at the relevant date, either manually or by exporting and importing your items if you need to update lots of prices at the same time.

Bills - add link to awaiting approval
On the Bills entering screen there is a link already to "add another bill", could an additional link be included to "purchases awaiitng approval" instead of continually having to exit the bill screen and go back to the Purchases tab and select Purchases Awaiting Approval?
1 voteThanks for getting back to me, Kathy. And apologies it's taken me a little while to follow up myself.
Just to re-highlight for others coming across the idea here - There are a couple of existing options available to help;
- Bills default page to Awaiting approval so each time you're returned to the list view this directs you to the Awaiting approval list.
- Quick viewing bills from the Bills list will allow you to review and edit bills without having to leave the list you're on
Appreciate even with these options you'd like to see additional quick links within an individual bill for view next awaiting approval, and next draft. Being open this isn't something we have any plans for but can get a better sense of interest from this idea. We'll share i there are any updates.

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.
6 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.

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?
7 votesAppreciate why you may want to review a Purchase order if it has been edited once raised, Jenni.

Prepayments
This applies to sales and purchases.
I think Xero product ideas has been as effective as screaming into the void ... however that did not work so I will try Xero Product ideas.- Every time I have seen a Xero company use Prepayments it has been a ... mess.
- Users have prepayments going to various accounts, some with GST and some without and there are transactions in the Prepayments accounts that were not processed as Prepayments.
- You end up with prepayments scattered over the balance sheet, amounts in Prepayments that are not prepayments, and some have GST and some not.…
1 voteHi Alex, appreciate your feedback here and please know this is valued and does get attention from our teams. You'll see from the forums that there are many ideas for improvement that our customers feel could add value so the forums here help us understand and advocate for the idea that our community feels valuable.
I want to make sure I'm interpreting your idea here correctly - Rather than a change to the prepayment transactions it sounds like you'd like to restrict posting to the Account prepayments are posted to in the Chart of Accounts and would like a separate account that purchase v sales prepayment transactions are automatically posted to. Would this be right? Please do let me know if I'm misunderstanding.

Batch payment - Warning if contact has not be paid in the last year
It would be great to have a warning pop up when creating a batch payment if a supplier has not been paid in ie 1 year. Recently a Supplier was paid however in the 2 years since they were first added into Xero (and no bills paid since) the business was sold and the bank account changed. Additionally if Hubdoc could read bank accounts and a warning pop up if they differ from that in Xero.
5 votesThanks for letting us know that you would like to see a warning when paying suppliers that haven't been paid for over a year.

A second idea has been created from this one for the suggestion of adding a warning within Hubdoc if a different bank account number is entered in Xero. You can view this here - Hubdoc - Warning if supplier bank account in Xero is different

Bills | Add new item - Autofill Item code from search text
When searching if an item code exists in the item column when in bill entry, the drop down minimises to "+NEW ITEM" - ideal if the code you have already typed (i.e) the new on to be set up, can be automatically copied into the new item set up pop out. Additionally it would be fantastic if the what is typed into the item name and be replicated in the purchase description box, if overtyped - currently it replicates, however if you then change the text in the item name it does not change in the purchase description box

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

Inventory - Warning of item code duplicate
Item code duplication notification prior to adding all the purchase and sales details or if it is duplicated make it editable while entering invoices without having to go out and into the inventory tab.
10 votesHi everyone, thanks for sharing your support with us here. While we have recently made a few updates to the look and feel of our Products & services list I want to be upfront that this idea has not been picked up as part of this.
We appreciate when entering a new item code, earlier signal if the item code you've entered already exists could be useful, and are continuing to track interest for this, here.

Duplicate Bill Review – Click-through Functionality
Enhance the Duplicate Bill Review screen by enabling direct click-through access to individual bills.
When reviewing potential duplicate bills, it would be helpful to click on any listed bill to open and inspect it directly. This allows users to quickly identify and resolve issues—such as an incorrect reference number—without having to search via another screen. After making corrections, users should be able to refresh the Duplicate Bill Review screen to confirm whether the duplicate warning has been cleared.
Benefits:
Speeds up the review and correction process
Reduces back-and-forth navigation
Improves user experience and efficiency

Tracked Inventory - Add Sales invoice number of COGS journal
When COGS posts via tracked stock on a sales invoice, record the sales invoice number the COGS value relates to in the nominal ledger. There is already a field for this, but Xero does not populate it.
10 votesThanks for sharing this idea. We can see how showing the related sales invoice number on COGS journal lines for tracked inventory would improve your business reporting and make it easier to trace costs back to the transaction.
This request aligns with internal work and planning to improve the information captured between journals, source invoices, and inventory items. We appreciate your support while we continue assessing the best way to deliver this.

Sales | Batch Deposit in Foreign Currency
Xero currently lacks the capability to bulk pay multi-currency invoices. This creates a significant bottleneck for our clients with a default currency of USD who process hundreds of invoices in EUR each month. While it is possible to import invoices in EUR in bulk, marking each invoice as paid individually is extremely time-consuming and inefficient. Please consider implementing a feature that allows users to bulk pay invoices in the same foreign currency. This enhancement would streamline the workflow for businesses handling large volumes of international transactions, saving time and reducing manual effort.

Batch payments - Option to export Batch Payment Summary report to .CSV file.
Currently there is the only one option to export Batch Payment Summary report to PDF format.
That report is coming with the vendors listed randomly without any order.
Usually I forward that report to the owner along with 'aba' file for payment processing, and the report with vendors listed in alphabetical order will be very helpful.
Exporting the report to Excel will solve the sorting problem.
Thank you very much,

6 votesHi Irina, thank you for this excellent suggestion.
We can see how being able to export the Batch Payment Summary report to a .CSV file would make it much easier to sort and manage before sending it on for payment processing.

Payment Voucher – Generate Payment Vouchers.
Provide users with a streamlined way to create official payment vouchers, including payment details and supporting documents, for improved record-keeping and transparency.
17 votesHi team, just wanting to make sure we understand the idea correctly here. When you'd like a payment voucher - would this be for accounts payable or receivable?
On the payables side, perhaps purchases orders could facilitate the record of this in Xero, and you can upload attachments to keep track of files related to a voucher. Alternatively, for accounts receivable, quotes maybe able to support what you're in need of here.

Bills - Option to add credit card surcharge
Nowadays everyone include a credit card surcharge when paying a bill. However when the bill is recorded originally, it is without the surcharge. When applying payment to the bill, if we are in the bill screen and we apply an amount higher than the original invoice it records as an overpayment and creates a credit note. There should be an option like in the bank rec screen where it allows us to type in the surcharge so that the surcharge takes the same character as the original invoice. Currently, I have to manually adjust the original invoice to include the…
10 votesThanks for raising your idea here, Carine. Can understand wanting a simpler option to add a credit card surcharge when adding a payment directly from the Bill.
Understand it's not the flow you're looking for here, but one option would be once the payment comes into your bank account you could use Find & Match to select the bill and in the second section you could use the Bank fee option for the surcharge like you mentioned.

Bills - Move Approve button on top of screen
When creating new bills in Xero, I use a secondary screen positioned above my main screen to reference information and manually enter details into the new bill page.
I’ve noticed that on the invoice page, the Approval button is now located at the top of the page, which is far more user-friendly and convenient. For consistency and improved workflow, it would be great if the same layout could be applied to the Bills page, with the Approval button moved to the top.
Currently, when entering bills—especially with another screen positioned above—I need to scroll or move the page upward to…

Bills Purchase Overview - show permit number column in draft bills
It would be nice to have more options to view more columns featured in the draft bills and bills so we can have more options to search for the supplier invoices.
4 votesHi team, returning to the idea it would be great to get more understanding of the specific fields you're wanting to be able to view from the Bills list pages.
We did release an update to our Bills list last year that provided users with more filters and the ability to choose from a selections of columns they'd like to show on this list view.
We've also introduced Bills quick view that enables you to view and edit an individual bill, without navigating away from your bills list.
Any additional detail you can share on your needs here would be helpful.

Bill Payments | Crezco - buy batches of bill payment fees
The highest Xero subscription allows you to make 10 bill payments through Crezco and then you pay a fee per bill. This is a pain, as I now have to approve each 24p fee.
Please can I buy Crezco payments upfront?4 votesHi everyone, we’ve seen some good chatter around buying Crezco bill payment fees in batches. For those handling a high volume of transactions, being able to buy fees in bulk would make this process quicker and smoother.
At the moment, Xero doesn’t support batch purchases for bill payment fees, but this idea is now in Gaining Support.
If this sounds like something that would help your workflow, please add your vote or share your thoughts. The more feedback we get, the better we can show the product team how important this is.
We’ll keep you updated here as we learn more.

Xero Accounting App - Add item from Product & Services to Bill
On the Xero mobile app it would make life easier for small entrepreneurs who are always on the go to update products purchased and update their inventory from a receipt that they capture on mobile app. This feature is only available from a desktop computer where persons need login from their computer to enter Bills or expenses for the purchases of inventory products. At the moment this is possible through the Sales invoices. Please make it available through purchases as well
