Hi community, we understand your needs in this feature and want to assure you were taking on board all your feedback.
As many of you accustom to this idea will know, multiple addresses requires a complex solution. It's been something we’ve been moving towards for some time and we’ve done a lot of back end work that will allow us to bring it to you in the future.
We have 12 different products within Xero that rely on contact data, as well as many of our app partners. This means that contacts need to seamlessly flow across technology, products and all connections on Xero. And that’s exactly what we’ve been working on.
One of the reasons we announced the retirement of classic invoicing is because many of the features being asked for, just can’t be brought into classic invoicing. The old technology has too many technology limitations to enable this.…

Hi Kim,
Well the thread started in 2022 and I believe there have been 2 updates from Xero staff since.
What you may not be aware of is the fact there used to be another system for ideas and reporting issues - that was "wiped" (sorry archived) due to the 3 or 4+ years of comments and ideas that were never actioned.
So in short - don't hold your breath.
I honestly believe a very high proportion of users (30% +) are seriously just waiting for a better online option that has the features of Xero - but actually cares about their paying customers.

Yep requested along with 1000 other things (all about 5 to 10 years ago on the old ideas and comments system they conveniently removed) that would have made Xero the best in the market - but they know best.
It's telling that the last update from Xero was March 06, 2023.
We're talking about "Ability to create and save multiple addresses for a single contact record"
Anone would think they are working with NASA the amount of time this has taken - 78 days and counting - sorry I'll be kind... only 53 working days have elapsed :|
p1ss poor from a company that really doesn't give a dam n about it's paying subscribers.

Xero - Probably one of the least Agile online companies I have ever come across.

Hi community, appreciate the want for more of an update from us on this highly voted idea. Since Kelly’s last message I am pleased to let you know that our product team has done some discovery work in this space. More specifically, exploring the different ways in which the problem could be solved in Xero, alongside understanding the technical challenges. The feedback you’ve shared has been really useful for our product team’s research 🙏
We recognise the importance of needing to know which bills are flagged, so people making payment can review whether a bill should be paid or not, to avoid inadvertent payment. Being able to improve this workflow is important to us and once we have solution concepts, we will be sure to reach out to this community for feedback.
Right now there are no specific time frames available as to when this might be worked on, but…

Well there's your answer if you're in the UK : Check your email.
Xero pricing changes in the United Kingdom
They have to pay for their coffees - s**t advertising and World Cup sponsorship somehow.
Anyone know a good package out there that can handle :
Accounting
PO's
Quotes
Products in to a database in order to create quotes.I would rather pay more now than stay with a company that clearly doesn't value it's customers - the only way they will listen!

Collis - exactly what most long term users have been saying for 5 years or more... there is no two way communication or listening exercise with Xero. It's their way or no way.
The truth of the matter is we're all mugs for continuing to pay monthly for a sub standard product...

LOL - good to see Xero sponsoring football tournaments but not sorting out business critical issues.
"We're still interested to get a clearer understanding of users that'd like to see this developed for bills, and will continue to track this through the conversation here. If there's any change we will let you know on the thread here. Thanks "
Well that was Nov 22 - so if they can't get a handle on what is needed by so many by now - there is no hope.

Hi Sharon,
Sorry to disagree - I would NOT rather pay more - as this and about 100 other things everyone keeps bang ing on about - should be basic features for any accounting package worth it's salt.
The fact they are not - means we're already being fleeced for the dev team to sit with coffee changing things they think could 'look' better.

Hi Jim
Great though your 'tool' maybe (and I am sure it is) I do notice that you have to pay https://inbill.com.au/#pricing
Why should we have to then pay for yet another piece of software - when actually this functionality is something the existing software should have built in years ago and is not, dev-wise, that difficult.
Just Xero taking the ****
I wouldn't offer my services to help bail Xero out of their self-made position.

Hi everyone, we value your input to this idea and how adding files directly to a fixed asset in Xero would be of use and improve efficiency for our customers.
Noted in my last update - our team are now in the midst of building Fixed Assets with updated technology. We plan to begin releasing this in the latter part of this year.
Our product team have paid close attention to the requests related to Fixed Assets here in community as they develop, and we do have intentions of providing the ability to attach files to assets.
For now, we'll shift to Under review and I'll keep you updated when we're closer to making this available to you all.
@graham @sally @everyone
They have no interest. Sorry to disappoint.
Some bean counter has worked out that the churn rate for disgruntled clients will be less than the new customers they attract with their sh*t adverts on TV here in the UK.
So income goes up. Everyone (* at Xero) happy.
In 2023 there were 5,510,265 businesses of 0-49 emplyees - their target market. So there is an awfully big pool of people that will sign up and think all works fine for a few months.
They have zero interest in us and the only way we can ever get what we want is to actually walk.
We have moved 3 of our businesses off Xero - the next one will go as soon as eoy completed. Makes little difference in real terms - but at least I know I am not lining their pockets and providing bonuses for the feckless Directors.
