Reconciliation - Xero subscription invoice to be added automatically to xero for reconciliation
This should be automatically added to your account, rather than having to save to Xero manually each month
Hi team, wanting to provide an update to you here, we want you to know we understand the efficiency more users would like to have in being able to automate the creation of the Xero subscription invoice inside their Xero org.
To highlight from my last update for UK users this is possible with eInvoicing through the online invoice (My Bills page).
This is still something we're interested in developing in more regions however isn't planned in our roadmap just yet.
When resource opens up for us to be able to pick this work up we will share an update with you all on this here. Thanks for staying engaged and supporting in this idea.

Can Xero email the invoice as a PDF to our 'Files xero email address' instead of an email with a link?
That way when the transaction line appears in bank feeds I can just add the pdf invoice from 'Add from file library...' -

Dext (receipt bank) email/add their invoice. No reason why XERO cant?

I have raised this with Xero support - as assumed I was doing something wrong with my Xero Invoices to not be imported.
They confirmed that Xero does not have a Xero Network Key - so no Xero to Xero billing. Just the email reminder with a link to get the invoice.
At present I forward the monthly invoice notification email to hubdoc, and create a bill from that using Xero as a supplier. I also sync the email to Xero Files and GDrive with this.
That's not ideal though, as the email _is not the invoice_. It has a link to the invoice which you can then download in PDF, CSV or Xero.
The result is that the bill in Xero has an attachment, which is a copy of the email and that then has a direct link to the invoice if I needed it for future ref.
If Xero could either setup invoices for Xero to Xero billing or just attach a PDF version to the email - it would make it much easier to use the product they are invoicing for to automatically process their invoice.
Very odd that this is not a feature at the moment.

Is this not what the Xero Network Key does? Allow bills to be added to Draft bills? I use repeating bills and add attachment

The xero bill should be an attachment like for our customers so you can set up a rule in your email for it to be sent to drafts, much easier than downloading bill then sending to drafts.

There is an option to set up repeating bills.. i have been using this for the Xero invoices. There is an option to add a month into the name too.
When the invoice email to me, i attached the copy of the invoice to the bill. I do not have to spend time entering each invoice separately.
Let me know if you need help setting it up.
