Hi everyone, we appreciate your support and feedback for having a Repeating Invoices Report.
We know that not having a dedicated report for your repeating invoices can present limitations when trying to forecast sales.
As noted by others in the idea, while not a complete solution there is the Receivable invoice detail report, that will provide results for invoices that have already generated from a repeat invoice template. There is also Short term cashflow predictions in Xero Analytics Plus that can predict recurring cash transactions based on the past 3 months reconciliations.
For more comprehensive forecasting, some users have found third-party apps that integrate with Xero to be helpful - You can view the full suite of official apps on our Xero App store.
While we understand these aren't ideal long-term solutions, I want to let you know that there's no work currently planned to develop a specific…

Thanks for the feedback and great to hear the use you find in repeat templates in Xero.
While there's no way to bulk update templates atm, you may find updating your templates through export & import of invoices more helps quicken things up?
You could export invoices that have been generated from your template to CSV, update the amounts in the exported file, and then re-import.
This will create 'Draft' invoices in your Xero org from which you can create a Repeat template and then delete the draft. 🙂

Kelly,
Your solution is almost as tedious as just editing each invoice manually.
The obvious solution is to have an option to allow prices to refresh to the lastest price from the inventory when the new repeating invoice is created. You could also add this feature to when you copy an invoice (it would be not much extra work).
I currently have almost 100 repeating invoices, and probably will have 100 by the end of the year. Many of them have pricing that is based on USD pricing, so prices can fluctuate significantly throughout a year.
This isn't a major update, when you think about the process of generating the new invoice when it's due. It's a simple extra lookup of the price based on the item code, if the option to update prices on the repeating invoice is selected.
Small improvements like this make a big difference to businesses like mine that use the repeating invoice feature extensiviely.

Hi everyone, thank you for your votes and comments on this idea, and our apologies for the delay in providing an update.
For context, the issue is with how data is supplied to us from the bank. For direct feeds, the information you see in Xero, including the format of the reference field, is provided directly by the financial institution. We are not able to control how this information is formatted and sent to Xero.
For those of you experiencing this with Bendigo Bank, we recommend contacting the bank directly to request that they make changes to the way this OSKO payment data is provided on their feed.
In the meantime, we will leave this idea open to continue tracking support on this.

I'm moving to Odoo. It will replace Xero (after 9 years), ConnectWise(14 years), ActiveCampaign (3 Years), Shopify (5 years), and mean no need for Zapier, and less than half the cost of all of them. There are other options out there.
