Hi community, we acknowledge the strong feelings in this idea and why you need a feature to flag bills directly within Xero. We really appreciate all your feedback and the detailed explanations of how this would help streamline your accounts payable.
We are dedicated to providing a solution for this over the longer term, but this will take some time requiring changes that sit beneath the face of bills.
In lieu of a direct feature for this we wanted to highlight some of the options discussed by the community here:
- Add a note to the bill: A detailed note on the bill itself can serve as a clear internal reminder of the dispute.
- Utilise tracking categories: Creating a specific tracking category like "Disputed Bills" can help you filter and report on these items.
- Adjust the due date: Temporarily extending the due date can prevent accidental payment while the dispute is…

Despite the new thread, this remains a critical requirement. Invoices have to be booked for all sorts of reasons (recovering VAT for example) but may need to be held for payment. I do find it extraordinary that Xero have no plans to introduce this.

Hey everyone, thanks for all the votes and feedback on this idea! Our product teams have definitely taken note and understand the effort involved in automatic report generation and sending.
While it's something we see as valuable in the long run, it's not currently on our development roadmap with a specific timeframe. We're still keen to hear from those of you who would find this feature helpful, so please keep the conversation and votes coming. We'll be sure to update you if our plans change.

This is a business critical function for several clients
I applaud Cameron Green for trying to plug a hole but I am with Daniel Coates on this. There should be no need to have to pay for what should be an integral feature.
As an aside for Cameron Green regarding the idea of suppressing disputed bills from Aged payables, etc. Just because they are disputed does not mean that they are not ultimately payable in whole or in part and they should not be lost sight of. I understand why one would require such reports but I would hope that any such tailored reports would clearly flag and quantify the filtering in operation.
