Hi everyone, thank you for continuing to share how important it is to clearly identify bills that need attention before they’re paid. We understand the impact this has on teams managing bills and avoiding payments being made before a query is resolved.
While a user control flagging mechanism is not directly in the pipeline yet, we want you to know that your feedback and the volume of support here is getting to the right places.
Our product teams are continuing to consider this wider workflow (not just adding a standalone flag) as they plan and shape our direction for bills.
We’re working towards making it easier to manage payments out of your business, with clearer ways to understand which bills need action as part of a more connected bills and payments experience.

I'm lost for words....after all the requests for this feature, you don't actually have any plans to implement it!!!! why bother asking us then.....
So here's a question for you: why was this not implemented in Xero at the outset? It's not as if this isn't a standard part of any other accounting system - at least in every one I have used over the past 30 years or so. Perhaps you thought everyone else had got it wrong, and this isn't an essential feature every business with more than one accounting person needs.
I defy you to give a sensible answer to that one
