Hi team, I'm pleased to share that backorders capability is now in the process of rolling out to customers.
Once available in your org, you'll be able to approve sales invoices for tracked inventory even when there isn't enough available stock.
Your available stock will be allocated first, with the remaining quantity placed on backorder. As stock comes in it'll be automatically allocated to the oldest approved backorders.
You'll also see clearer inventory visibility through available quantity and backorder indicators in both your invoicing and inventory experience.
We'll keep monitoring feedback as availability expands, and I'll return to share another update once this is available to all users. Thanks!

Thanks for the support and voting on this idea, team.
We're in the midst of developing a refreshed purchase orders experience, that gives us the basis for new features.
As you may have seen in other recent updates, we have a keen eye on developing backorders, recording part amounts billed and allowing negative stock on hand in Xero.
We'll be back to share another update as work progresses.

I have issues with this too. There are a couple of fairly minor yet critical changes Xero needs to make to their inventory to make it useable for even the most basic of business requirements. While I understand they are not in the business being an all encompassing product, the inventory suits almost nobody and is not useable in its current form, meaning every business neds to get an inventory add-on.

Hi community, we'd like to provide an update for you all here with backorders for tracked inventory now in the process of rolling out to customers.
As this rolls out, customers will be able to approve sales invoices for tracked inventory even when there isn't enough available stock.
Your stock on hand will be allocated straight away, and the remaining quantity goes on backorder. Incoming stock is then automatically allocated to the oldest approved backorders.
This coupled with the ability to track the receiving of goods from a Purchase order through to Bills will help solve for needs shared in this idea.
We throughly appreciate all your input through this thread and will come back to confirm once this roll out reaches 100% of users. 😊

"As a Xero Certified Advisor, I thought we were supposed to have access to Cash Coding no matter which subscription level the client chooses. I was very disappointed to see that it is not available in the Starter Plan, even when logged in as an Advisor."
100% agree with this.
Another case of a software provider treating accountants poorly for profit. I always roll my eyes when someone from Xero says we are working with accountants, cant be further form the truth.
Xero are incredibly close to massively improving their product and their customer satisfaction in one hit, just need someone at the company to see it and realise it.
