Bills - View PDF without downloading
It would be massively helpful to be able to preview the PDF invoice instead of having to click on and download it each time. If you could preview it alongside where you are inputting data on a Purchase invoice that you have sent to Xero by email - then you can check details side by side rather than having to print out the paper versions. Would be much more efficient

Bills - Increase limit on amount of attachments
Would it please be possible to increase the amount of attachments that can be saved against a bill. At the moment it will allow us to attach more that 50 items but when it saves it only saves the first 50 and removes the rest.
I realise there are ways round this eg by attaching an e-mail with multiple items attached within it, but it's then more time consuming when trying to find specific attachments3 votesThanks for sharing your idea and highlighting the changes that matter most to you!

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…
6 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.

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

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.

Bills - Filter bills list by account code
On Xero bills, as well as being able to filter and search for purchase invoices by contact or invoice reference, being able to search by a nominal code would be helpful. For example, making a payment run for all of one type of cost; finding any invoices that have not been allocated properly or for finding amounts that need to be included in management accounts.

Bills - Awaiting Payment bills summary by supplier
Bills - View bills awaiting payment summarised by supplier with the ability to expand supplier to view invoices and select individually or make changes if required.
You need to use the awaiting payment screen to create batch payments. To make payments you have to select each individual invoice for a supplier which takes time and is inefficient.
Having the ability to view the awaiting payment screen showing summary (total) for the supplier would be helpful. You can still filter dates so you can see everything owed to a supplier within date range. Much like an Aged Payables report. You can…

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…
3 votesHey Sarah, thanks for your suggestion to add a planned pay date field directly on the bill entry screen.
We're grateful for your engagement and for sharing ideas that can help make Xero more efficient. We can see how this would save time by reducing the number of steps required to set a planned payment date.

Email to bills > Email forwarding directly into Xero as draft bills
I would like the ability to set up an email forwarding rule so that any incoming invoices can be automatically forwarded to Xero and created as draft bills.
At the moment, there’s no verified mailbox or built-in process that allows this automation, meaning invoices have to be manually uploaded or sent from specific addresses.
Adding this feature would make invoice management faster, simpler, and far more cost-effective, as users wouldn’t need to subscribe to third-party apps or integrations just to achieve automatic forwarding.1 voteThanks for sharing your idea on setting up auto-forwarding to the bills inbox, and letting us know the changes that matter most for you.

Bills - Change draft bills to spend money
I would like easier access for entering multiple spend money transactions with a preview screen
I suggest either;
1) a separate email to send spend money receipts to like bills have; or
2) when entering spend money transaction, after clicking save and add another, allow the preview pane to be available after attaching a file so you can still see the details of the receipt when entering (just like the preview is there when you enter a spend money from the files section) otherwise you have to go out of spend money and back to files just so you have…
5 votesThanks for your idea, Katie. Appreciate how you've thought of multiple ways we could help in the process you're after here.
While we'll gain specific interest in being able to change a bill to a spend money from your idea here, I also wanted to highlight this one for being able to set up separate emails in a contact for different transaction types. I've made sure to add your vote to that too so if there are any updates to tackle this from that view you'll be notified, too.

Bills - Wrap tracking category in field
Can the tracking category be "text wrapped" so that the full description can be seen? I often have to click edit to see the full description of the tracking category which takes takes time.
- see image attached... The account description has 3 lines, please could the tracking category also have space to see full description.

Bills - Assign a Name to Planned Dates
Being able to name planned dates would make it easier to manage payments when multiple users are setting up different types of payments on different dates.

Bills - Flag a Bill as 'in dispute / query'
Ability to flag individual bills as in dispute
Purpose | To enable review and ensure the business does not make payment for a bill when it's currently 'under query'
1,206 votesHi community, we acknowledge the strong feelings in this idea and why you need a feature to flag bills directly within Xero. We really appreciate all your feedback and the detailed explanations of how this would help streamline your accounts payable.
We are dedicated to providing a solution for this over the longer term, but this will take some time requiring changes that sit beneath the face of bills.
In lieu of a direct feature for this we wanted to highlight some of the options discussed by the community here:
- Add a note to the bill: A detailed note on the bill itself can serve as a clear internal reminder of the dispute.
- Utilise tracking categories: Creating a specific tracking category like "Disputed Bills" can help you filter and report on these items.
- Adjust the due date: Temporarily extending the due date can prevent accidental payment while the dispute is…

Invoicing / Bills | List views - Freeze top row and first column
Ability to see Header rows and side columns on all screens when scrolling
As per Microsoft Office where the top and side ribbons remains static.
e.g. When you're in the Dashboard and scroll down it would be good if the top ribbon is static. It makes it easier to select another item (business; accounting; contact etc) without having to scroll up.The same with Bill Payments; Invoicing; reports etc where the top ribbon and column headers - see attached - would remain static as you scroll down the list.
The same as when you might have a lot of columns…

Billable Expenses - Assigning items to customers, make clicking "OK" act like the "Assign" button
I regularly forget to click "assign" before "OK" when assigning a customer to a billable expense. In the attached screenshot, I've identified an expense, found the customer, and the line item is ticked. It's infuriating to have to remember to click "Assign" before "OK", when the rest of the interface is telling me that everything is all set and saved. While I try to remember to press the wretched "Assign" button first, could you please change the default so that clicking "OK" has the effect of clicking "Assign" automatically? There shouldn't be a separate "Assign" button.

Invoicing - Increase the number of billable expenses shown on the selection screen
Xero decided to limit the number of billable expenses one can view at a time when invoicing to 10, as was explained to me, because some organizations have a large number of billable expenses and it taxes the system and slows down the process of invoicing if more than 10 show. The exact opposite effect happens, however. Now, one has to page through dozens of windows to find the billable expense, instead of simply scrolling through 100+ bills. Even worse, there is no way to sort the bills, so the target of the invoice may be on page 36 taking…
2 votesHey Scott, really appreciate your feedback on our update here. We want to be transparent that the change to billable expenses in invoicing was something that we implemented due to lots of feedback that we received, and we don't have intentions on returning to the previous behaviour. On review, we first marked this as feedback based on it being a removal of a new feature, however we will shift this to Not in Pipeline to set expectation.
This means other members will still be able to vote on this idea, and we can track if this is still an idea that trends.

Billable Expenses - Tickbox to remove outstanding expense from multiple bills at a time
If an item has been billed manually or your stuck with some items in billable expenses you have to open every bill and remove the client from the items that are have not been billed.
Could you add a tick box selection in the Billable Expenses - Outstanding so that you can then select a remove billable expenses from multiple bills in one go.8 votes -
Repeating Bills - Change 'Next bill date' to 'Create bill date'
I have wasted HOURS of my time trying to figure out how to get repeating bills to show up. Would be extremely helpful if instead of "Next Bill Date" you say "create bill date" or "generate bill date" which is what I finally figured out it actually IS. "Next bill date" in this instance is very confusing; it's natural to put in the bill date for the following month.
