    Thank you everyone for engaging about the need for a discount column in Bills with us here.

    While there isn’t a direct column for adding a discount atm, there are a few ways you could look to reflect this in your bills right now;

    • Use Xero’s inbuilt calculator in the Price field, and add a note to the description of that line e.g $5 item at a 20% discount you would enter 5 x 0.8 in the quantity field and could add a description “including 20% discount”
    • Reduce the Quantity field to reflect the discount e.g 20% discount enter 0.8 in the Quantity and use a descriptor as above
    • Use a separate line of the bill to enter a whole amount discount with a negative Price amount
    • If you use Purchase orders, when you copy the Purchase order to a Bill though the discount column will not show the Subtotal…

    Hi all, thank you for contributing to idea here. While our Inventory team have reviewed the idea for custom / tiered price lists in Xero, we want to be open that we do not have development planned for enabling more extensive Inventory management like this.

    There are many Inventory apps that connect with Xero and offer these types of services and more - You can explore these on Xero App store. To be transparent we will update the status to not planned - If there is any change to this we will share with you here.

    I agree with all the requests and recommendations, in that we also need the ability to change the cost value of the same item code per customer, not just the invoiced price. It is extremely tedious to have to create an item code for each individual item, whereas we use item codes for groups of similar category items and then just do the breakdown per line item in an individual invoice.

    If this idea has been shared by the community so many years ago, then it is very poor form from the developers, not to have integrated it into the app already.

    Maybe this solution is not for us.
