    Hi community, while we're continuing to keep a close eye on the support for this idea here, we don't have any plans in the near term to control the naming of files sent form Xero.

    Just to share, though appreciate many will already be aware, once the file is received and downloaded by the recipient the file name can be manually edited on their local device.

    If there are any plans made we'll share here.

    The # they are using in PDF file names causing an issue/error in PDF files preview in File Explorer and Microsoft Outlook on Windows 10 or Windows 11 computers.

    Can Xero remove the # from Purchase Orders and Quotes pdf file names ? No issue with Invoices.
