Hi team, I know it's been sometime since this idea was initially raised and we wanted to update you all here.
We appreciate and understand why some businesses would prefer the acceptance of a Quote be sent to the organisation's reply to email address, rather than the user that initially created the Quote.
While our product team have reviewed and are attentive to your interest in this, we want to be upfront that this is not something we currently have direct plans for changing the behaviour of.
Our team will continue to review this idea and when we're in a position to assess notification and communications for Quotes, we'll share if there are any updates around this, here.

Hi everyone, we know this remains a highly important request, and we appreciate the volume of detail you’ve shared around billing, delivery and contact management workflows in this idea.
As shared in our last update - our team has been progressing the next phase of work needed to bring this more meaningfully into invoicing.
We know many of you are looking for clearer timing, and while I’m not able to confirm a release date at this stage, I do want to reassure you this remains an active area of work for our product teams.
We’ll continue to return here with further updates as we move through the next stages. Thanks again for your patience and for continuing to share the workflows that make this so important.

Some really good points here from @SamBond...
I would strongly recommend using the xero api to address these needs.
It is relatively straight forward now to create web pages that interact with the Xero api (which is well documented) and design pages to do just the type of thing you are describing.
It is not ideal and you would expect a competent accounts package to offer the features you are describing.I run a complete subscription and renewal package via an api web interface, the subscription and subscriber data is stored in a separate database and it links to invoices and quotes raised in xero, I am slowly expanding it to include account interactions like sending reminders and accepting quotes and purchase orders.
This leaves xero to handle the transactions and manage the financial accounts - rather than let it get too close to my business.
In the attached screenshot of my online subscription business I can see overdue invoices, expiring subscriptions and subscriber status in one shot with all the payment, quotes and invoicing data linked to xero and new quotes are automatically generated in xero when required.

Really helpful to have a customer field for how to present an invoice.
Many of our customers use various supplier portals (each with their own url and login details etc) others require invoices to be sent to a specific email address. It would be very helpful to have a free text field in the Customer attribute to allow us to record how invoices should be presented to the specific customer. The field should be large enough to support a URL, username and password and some free text if necessary.Charles Hewitt

Hi community, thanks for your interest in this idea. Just wanted to pop in here to share, for those who aren't already aware, that you can export the Receivable Invoice Summary report. The report has a 'Last Payment Date' column that you can add to it which is useful for finding customers who habitually pay late so that you can take appropriate action.
To be transparent, building a feature to show the average days to pay by customer isn't on our roadmap at this time, but we'll be sure to update this idea if that changes in future.

We like to understand how effective the different stage of our account receivable process is, to do this we need to know the proportion of invoices that are paid at each stage:
Average proportion paying within a range of days for a given reporting period ie 35% < 5 days, 30% 6-30 days, 15% 31-60 days, 10% > 60 days etcCharles Hewitt

This is about the only 'event' generated in the app that requires action - yet there is no notification in the app - it relies on an email.
Why does this event (quote accepted) not show in the 'notifications' - I am not sure what notifications is for if not for this type of event.
