Hi Cath, when you say you have to log out and then into the other org, are you using 2 separate Xero account logins?
Appreciate not the ideal solution but you could use incognito mode atm, to open the organisation you need to reference?

We appreciate the importance of being able to manually enter dates in new invoicing, and thank you for sharing your interest in being able to do this specifically in the payment date field here.
I want to confirm that this is something our team are working on. While you'll be able to still use the date picker if you choose, we'll enable the ability to manually enter a date using / or - delimiters, or alternatively using date entry shortcuts - same capabilities that are available with the Issue and Due date atm.
I'll be back to share when it's released and you can start to make use.

Also find a way to turn off expense notifications for the rest of us who have absolutely nothing to do with expense claims but get a notification every times one is uploaded

Hi everyone, we've begun rolling out a new feature that enables you to reconcile a period in Xero which'll be available to users with the Standard or Advisor roles. This'll appear as a new tab within a bank account (next to Account Transactions). From here, you can capture the period dates and balances from your statement, and Xero will automatically show and select all transactions within the period. Once the period is reconciled, you'll be able to close it to prevent transactions being deleted or unreconciled within that period. You'll find details of how to access and use reconcile a period on Xero Central.
As a start we'll be making this feature available to all US and CA organizations, so I'll be back to confirm once fully live in these regions. 🙂

All the other accounting software allow you to 'fix' the reconciliation and will alert you if any changes are made that affect the bank balance. This is the main feature I find lacking in Xero. Considering how often aswell there are times when the banks don't sync properly and therefore the balances don't match the actual paper statement I would like to do it and record it within Xero on a more regular basis

I'm here again, this shouldn't be a product idea, I should be able to report a problem with the software. Search isn't working. If I type in Chesterfield, it tells me there is only one contact containing Chesterfield. This is rubbish, we have at least 3... Come on Xero, Quickbooks has its limitations but its search facility actually works.

This drives me mad on a daily basis. Has anyone ever worked out how the results are sorted? Things from years ago. 99% of the time I know the date, I just need to find the transaction. Let us filter or sort by date

Hi everyone, as another step toward improving history of new invoicing you'll find you'll now see an entry when an invoice is sent, and the email address it has been sent to.
We appreciate this is something we've heard a fair amount of feedback on and we hope helps in your journey to using new invoicing.
We still have more enhancements on the way for history and I'll be back again when more updates land.

Hi community, we’ve just released some new keyboard shortcuts to new invoicing, that cut down the number of mouse clicks and help you perform actions on your invoice with some simple keyboard entry options.
There’s a range of different shortcuts that you can explore, and in particular a few that I wanted to call out for ‘Approve’ options that I know will be of most interest to you, here;
- Approve (Ctrl-Alt-A OR Cmd-Opt-A on a Mac)
- Approve & add another (Ctrl-Alt-O OR Cmd-Opt-O on a Mac)
- Approve & print PDF (Ctrl-Alt-R OR Cmd-Opt-R on a Mac)
- Approve & email / send eInvoice (Ctrl-Alt-E OR Cmd-Opt-E on a Mac)
While you get used to the combinations of shortcuts our product team have added small prompts to highlight these in the product, and if you’d like to view the full list of options you can see them all on Xero Central.

Hi team, while we don't have immediate plans to change the placement of buttons on new invoicing we're interested in staying close to this feedback and I'll move the idea to Under review for the time being. We'll return to confirm any outcomes.

483 votesThanks for all your feedback here, everyone. The way you add description only lines in new invoicing is a little different to classic and we wanted to explain in hopes it'll help with how you're using new invoicing.
When entering a description only line, you can enter text in the description field of the line. If you add detail to any other field the line will be treated as a 'financial' line and you will need to include Qty, Unit price, Account and Tax rate.
When an inventory item is added this uses the item code field and the line is treated as 'financial', so it's not possible to use inventory items as description only lines in new invoicing atm.
We appreciate this is how many of you here have been making use of inventory and our product team are closely monitoring the feedback we're getting on this. Though we don't…Cath Lamb

Thank you for sharing your thoughts on the possible solution we shared a few months ago. After careful consideration taking all feedback on board, we will not be moving forward with this solution.
We're still considering how we might solve for the issues presented here over the long term and there are other pieces of work the team are currently delving into such as duplicate bills detection that may also help solve some needs here.
That said, we'll move the idea back to Submitted and continue to keep you updated on any progression that can help the needs expressed through the idea here. Thanks

Hi, I'm using the same login for both companies.
Thanks for the tip on the incognito mode, that seems to be working! I've tried using a different browser before but it still seems to switch companies after a while. This is working much better
