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.

Guess I need to open yet another thread because now they're merging them to the original... WHICH HAS COMMENTS BLOCKED
Well, give that the Xero product team is tone-deaf and didn't listen to more than *437* users who voted for this, refused to make any changes at all, and then closed comments - guess it's time to open a new thread!
Hilariously - the latest update was that Xero "improved the processing speed" - Oh, wonderful! So now my invoices will autosave incorrectly even faster! What a joy...
Original thread: https://productideas.xero.com/forums/939198-for-small-businesses/suggestions/47696732-new-invoicing-option-to-switch-autosave-off
All we ask is for the *option* to disable this feature. That's all. It's really not a big ask and would make things monumentally a better experience.

Xero your response to not plan this is stupid.
Just give the OPTION
Why is a toggle so hard???

Auto-save is annoying!
1. I have many drafts that come in and they are expected to be ready for review already; when auto-saves are happening and someone goes in to mess around on something or just doesn't finish and then a draft is saved, it causes confusion!
2. if i'm working and change the invoice number, it then tries to autosave, but then if the invoice number is taken - it gets reset. it did this multiple times as i was trying to copy the format over from another invoice, and then went to another screen to copy the information i was going to replace, only to discover what i had just copied disappeared due to autosave finding a 'conflicting invoice' (which there wouldn't be because i wasn't ready to save!)Edited by Community Manager to remove inappropriate language

Hi everyone, we thoroughly appreciate your engagement and sharing how custom fields would be advantageous to you here.
With lots of work for 'building on beautiful' underway atm, we want to be honest that custom fields is not planned in the near term.
Some in the idea here, may find the recent addition of Notes that can be added within the Contact Details section of a contacts record useful in being able to record and view specific detail relative to a contact at present - More on this shared here
We'll continue to evaluate the viability of largely voted ideas such as this when there is resource, however this unlikely in the next 12 months.

*Custom Columns on Bills & Invoices*
Often, we'll be tracking an order in our own system under it's own number, say #1234. Currently we put this in the Reference field. However, our supplier will have their own order number as well, say "INV00123"
It would be nice to track both of these, be able to search, and be able to see them in the list view.
What I'll often do when I'm about to send a payment is select all the invoices, take the sum that Xero shows, and send a wire transfer for that. Then I'll copy/paste the text from Xero (Clean it up a bit) and email that to our supplier so they can reconcile all the bills we're attaching to that payment. Currently, they get a list of our order numbers - but then they need to reverse search and look up their own. We're already tracking this info on the description of a line-item, but this is impossible to see on the list view.
