Thanks everyone, for continuing to share your experiences and examples here. We’ve been following the recent comments and really appreciate the added detail around the challenges this creates in real payment runs, particularly where credits need to be reflected alongside bills so supplier statements and remittances stay aligned.
This March, we released the ability to find and match credit notes when reconciling, which was another highly requested idea on Xero Product Ideas.
We recognise this is an end-of-process solution and doesn’t address the core need raised in this idea. As a quick update from my last post, we’ve done some early exploration into the technical requirements needed to solve the pain points mentioned. This is a complex area to get right, as it touches multiple parts of the bill payments and credit note experience.
At this stage, our focus remains on continuing to develop our bank-agnostic payments solutions across regions,…

i agree with andrew, a credit note is just a negative invoice
therefore why cant we import them and why can they not be added to the batchthere must be a major design flaw in xero, that they built it then somebody said what about credits, and they went Oh SH&T we better tag something on
shame on you xero

565 votesHi community, we appreciate the continued traction this idea's received, and do want to provide clarity and set expectation.
Your feedback has been valuable in understanding the needs of using description only lines to; add subheadings, provide context for grouped charges, and ensure your invoices are easy for your clients to read and understand.
To reconfirm, atm - You can add one-off description only lines as you enter an invoice. However, if you add detail to any other field the line will be treated as a 'financial' line and you'll need to include Qty, Unit price, Account and Tax rate.
- We know some users have set up and saved inventory items for description only lines they commonly use, however as the item code field is used for inventory items the line of the invoice is treated as 'financial' meaning you'll then need to include Qty, Unit price, Account and Tax…

Hi community, thank you to everyone who's shared and supported the ability to email credit notes to Xero.
We understand why you'd like to be able to automate the flow and entry of Credit Notes in Xero, however this isn't something we have plans of developing within Xero right now.
As mentioned in my last update it's possible to currently automate entry of Credit Notes in Xero, by publishing these through Hubdoc -You can find steps to connecting Hubdoc to your Xero organisation, or detail on publishing Credit notes, on Xero Central.
If there are any changes put in place for this, we'll let you know.

Hi everyone, thanks sharing how important it is to be able to reserve inventory for pre-sales, or consignment.
We appreciate hearing your needs in setting stock aside before it’s invoiced, and in some cases working across multiple locations or warehouse setups.
We are currently in the process of releasing backorders capability which is designed to help tracked inventory users approve a sales invoice even when there isn’t enough stock available at the time. When that happens, the stock you do have available is allocated first, and the remaining quantity is placed on backorder. As more stock comes in, Xero will then automatically allocate it to the oldest approved backorders.
While this release doesn’t provide a way to reserve stock in advance for consignment, pre-orders, or particular customers and locations, it may still help some businesses that are currently needing to wait for stock to arrive before they can approve and…

I agree Xero seem to be more intertested in pushing the payment link, which is nice but frankly I have used and it is quicker to do it manually.
this is just basic stuff that all the other software providers do, and it really cant be that difficult for a remittance to pick up a credit note as well as an invoice
