    Hi everyone, thank you for continuing to share your feedback on invoice subtotals.

    We know this is a feature many of you feel strongly about, and we genuinely appreciate the time you’ve taken to explain the impact on your workflows.

    While this idea has been closely considered by our product teams we want to be upfront that at this point we don't have any foreseeable plans for developing the ability to add subtotals in invoices.

    As previously shared current options that you may want to explore include;

    • adding a description only line for each section where you can reference and explain the subtotals for a section of lines (leaving the Qty & Price blank),
    • exporting the invoice as a PDF and editing it externally, or
    • exploring invoicing tools in the Xero App Store that offer more extensive services

    We know these aren’t ideal substitutes, but they may help bridge the…

    Adding a Sub-total option is such a simple coding change.

    Why should your customers be paying top dollar for an accounting platform that lacks such a simple, basic function with the company's position being to offer a "work around"!!!

    I don't want to spend time finding "work arounds" - I want a product that works!!!

    What a slap in the face!!!?!?!!!

    I refer back to my comment made nearly a year ago on 30 April, 2023.

    Perhaps we should start a boycott petition?

    If Xero continues to show Zero interest in responding to its customer needs, perhaps it's time to vote with our feet....

    Subtotals are an essential. If I commence an engagement based on a quote or estimate and the client expands the scope of the work, it is critical to be able to show that the work for which I was originally engaged is on budget and then show the additional work.

    I don't understand why Xero doesn't already have this feature. I also find it difficult to understand why so many web-based platforms that grow and increase their functionality based on customer ideas do not implement changes faster.

    We, the customers, basically tell you how to improve your product for nothing, so I'd like something back for my monthly subscription fee thanks.
