Hi all, we appreciate the interest and hearing how you find autosave a useful feature when invoicing. At this stage, we don’t have any plans to roll out autosave to the editing of an invoice once it’s been approved.
We’ve made some recent improvements to autosave within the draft state of an invoice that we wanted to share with you - Our product team has optimised how invoices autosave to help reduce the lag, meaning invoices load and save faster. Thanks again for your feedback.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! DON'T TOUCH BILLS!! Autosave on New Invoicing has made it impossible to work with. All it needs is a reminder to pop up, asking if you want to save or not.
@Peter Rickert, you say that other programs have autosave, yes but they also have the option of reverting back to previous versions, in case you have made a mistake.
DO NOT MAKE XERO EVEN WORSE THAN IT IS...!

Hi community, as mentioned in my last post we want to keep you looped in on changes around autosave.
Our product team has continued to focus attention on how we can make invoicing faster and more responsive to improve our customers' experience.
We've recently optimised autosave to require less processing power, leading to faster invoice loading and saving.
Our decision remains that we won’t be adding an option to turn off autosave on invoices. However, we hope this change improves your experience with autosave in draft invoices over time. Thanks again for your feedback.

New Invoicing - Option to switch Autosave off
This feature is now costing us time and money. I really do not understand why this can not be implemented. WE DO NOT WANT OR NEED THIS FEATURE!!XERO WILL YOU PLEASE START LISTENING TO US AND PUT THIS RIGHT.

This is causing all sorts of problems with our invoicing. You can't breath without it saving. We have lost previous invoice information without the option of reverting back and it has slowed down the whole process because every time you press return it is saving. XERO GIVE US THE OPTION OF AUTO SAVE, NOT HAVE IT AS A DEFAULT WITH NO OPTIONS!

On a few occasions I have had to stop processing an invoice to leave it for another day because of lack of information but because it saves automatically the invoice has been generated. I then go to raise another invoice and it gives me the next number. This never used to happen with the old style invoicing. I now have gaps in my invoice numbers. I need to be able to just get out of invoicing without using a number. Also sometimes I go into a draft invoice to try out a revised pricing model but because it saves automatically I now have to print the draft before the changes so that I can revert back to the original pricing once finished.

Hi community, I’d like to share the new Xero Central page for new invoicing that we noted was coming.
Along with updates to individual ideas on the site here, this page will become the one source for key feature rollouts including:
- what’s available in new invoicing right now,
- timelines for features and enhancements going live in new invoicing, as well as
- a comparison table between the classic and newer versions of invoicing.
We'll be updating this page regularly.
Remember, you can keep switching between the two products between now and September. Thanks

I agree. The things they are changing seem like unnecessary cosmetic changes while leaving the real issues untouched like -
- Allowing negative stock
- Being able to track quotes from the product screen
- Being able to track orders from the product screen
- Allowing order only users access to the stock screenVery disappointing.

Yes definitely need this feature in the New Invoicing Screen. When emailing the invoices out on the old style invoicing screen, the 'Send me a copy' is automatic, now I have to remember to tick this every time. I need it to keep track of which invoices have been sent out in my outlook and follow them up if needed, without having to log into Xero every time.

Hi everyone, we appreciate the restrictive nature of inventory(Products and Services) atm, and our product team have plans to explore adding capability to cater for negative inventory or back order of stock recorded in Xero.
While they have a few other priorities to get through first we'll move this idea to Under review and return to share more when this work picks up.

We are constantly having to issue invoices without the stock numbers. Then when the bills are allocated on Xero we have to go back into the invoices and at the stock numbers so that the parts are issued correctly. This means that we never accurately know how much we have in stock without manual checks.
Please allow negative stock on Xero!Margaret Zdunek

Hi everyone, we appreciate your input and sharing detail of how you'd like to see this developed to help suit the needs of your business.
We want to upfront that we don't have plans for developing this in the next year. However looking further out to the future, our teams will continue to review and consider how they might build inventory in Xero to cater for units of measure.
If you're after an immediate solution, it might be worth exploring connected apps that can integrate with Xero and cater for your business needs. As soon as there's any change or news around this to share we'll be sure to update our community and all of your interested in this, here.An error occurred while saving the comment Margaret Zdunek

Our shipping company is now asking that we upload onto their platform, a csv commercial invoice with itemised price, description, quantity, commodity code and country of origin, instead of just uploading our own invoice which is causing us a lot more work and means that we can't easily send out urgent parts because it takes so long to fill in CSV file. I am very surprised that these fields weren't a feature from the word go.

NOOO!!! Better to get rid of all autosave functions or make them an option.
Once an invoice is approved, and I assume sent, then it becomes a legal document so you should not be making any changes to it without serious consideration. The autosave on XERO in its current state makes you lose the original information without having the ability to revert back to the original copy. I have to print my drafts before working on them a second time to make sure I can refer to the original content in case of mistakes. What a waist of paper!!!
