   Hi community, we appreciate the continued traction this idea's received, and do want to provide clarity and set expectation.

   Your feedback has been valuable in understanding the needs of using description only lines to; add subheadings, provide context for grouped charges, and ensure your invoices are easy for your clients to read and understand.

   To reconfirm, atm - You can add one-off description only lines as you enter an invoice. However, if you add detail to any other field the line will be treated as a 'financial' line and you'll need to include Qty, Unit price, Account and Tax rate.

   • We know some users have set up and saved inventory items for description only lines they commonly use, however as the item code field is used for inventory items the line of the invoice is treated as 'financial' meaning you'll then need to include Qty, Unit price, Account and Tax rate.

   Work required to enable inventory only description lines is deeper than the surface of invoicing itself. The teams required to develop this are very much across the idea here, and would like to dive deeper into this but it's not in our pipeline just at this point. We'll be sure to keep you updated if this work is picked up. Thanks for your engagement.

   Hi all, appreciate the interest and rationale for wanting to be able to combine and hide line items on an invoice for sending to your clients, while having your usual detail tracked on the invoice in Xero.

   While this may be a function we look to explore in the long-term we want to be upfront that this is not something we’ll be developing in the near term. Our team is focussed on other key priorities right now such as improvements to invoice branding and getting paid.

   If you want to hide all line item details, you can create a custom invoice theme where you can decide which data fields appear on the PDF invoice. For example to print only the Subtotal and no line items.

   However we’re aware that in other cases you want to be able to show some line items and not others. We’ll leave this idea open as it’s something we may be able to revisit in the longer term. We’ll be sure to let you know if there’s any change around this, here.

   I agree with this completely. MYOB does it, and I dislike MYOB.

   Yes, I agree. We have it for transactions but not the reports. Currently anyone could 'mess' around with the reports particularly my custom reports, and I would have no idea what they have done, who did it, and when.
