Hey everyone, we've been following the conversation closely and appreciate the invaluable feedback regarding expenses in Xero.
Whilst we can see how forwarding expenses to an email address would be useful for your staff, this is currently a functionality that is not on our product team’s roadmap. In line with our new Xero Product Idea status, we’ve now updated this to Not In Pipeline.
We’ll continue to monitor the support for this idea and will keep you updated with any future changes.

Hi community, we'd like to confirm that enabling phone numbers to be stored against additional people within a contact record is not something we have plans to develop at this time. This may be a function we look to explore in the long-term so we're still interested to get a clearer understanding of users that'd like to see this developed, and will continue to track this through the conversation here. If there's any change we will let you know on on this idea.

Hi team, we appreciate hearing how splitting batch payments could make reconciliation faster and less manual, especially when only one invoice from a batch is paid and the rest remain outstanding.
We agree there’s a real opportunity here to simplify the process. While this isn’t something we’re building right now, it’s part of a broader set of ideas we’re considering as we look at how to make reconciliation more flexible and efficient.
For UK and US customers we have online bill payments that make the batch and reconciliation process much simpler - If you’re not too familiar with online bill payments you can get to know more through Xero Central and learn if this solution is right for you;
Similarly, we are working on a solution for our AU customers and will be sure to share more as…

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,…

Hi community, we thank you for your feedback on the value of being able to flag a Sales invoice as in dispute. We know a clear way to mark these invoices would be helpful.
Similarly to our update for Supplier invoices there are a few options you may want to consider to currently highlight Sales invoices in this situation;
- Add a note to the invoice to serve as a clear internal reminder of the dispute.
- Utilise tracking categories: Creating a specific tracking category like "Disputed Invoices" can help you filter and report on these items.
- Update the reference to add a notation such as [reference number] - 'In dispute'
While we know these aren't perfect solutions, we hope these may help some in the conversation right now.
We appreciate your enthusiasm for this feature, and we want to be transparent about where it stands, and this is an idea that…

Hey everyone, thanks so much for sharing all your ideas and detailed suggestions for a comprehensive Audit Trail Report.
Through some of the comments in this discussion we wanted to highlight the Journal Report that may help with visibility of detail some are after. We've taken on board your thoughts on how this could be enhanced, like including an 'edited date' column and improving the export to Excel, however this is not in the roadmap right now.
Being open, providing a complete audit trail of every single event and change within an organisation is not in our plans.
That said, it’d help to gather interest in specific items you'd like to see added within the history and notes and I've shared links to a few ideas that have already been started on the platform. We welcome you to add your vote, or start a new idea for those that'd be…

Agree! I have folks buying and returning stuff ALL THE TIME! It's crazy to me that they can't submit a return receipt the same way they submit a purchase receipt. The fewer processes and steps my employees have to learn and remember, the higher the chance that they will actually submit something correctly, which is the end goal!

Hi everyone, apologies it's been so long since our last engagement here. We appreciate the additional feedback that's been shared.
Right now, it's not possible to assign bills to projects that have a Closed/Completed status. Instead, the best option would be to update the status of the Project temporarily to be able to assign your bill/s and then re close it.
Being upfront this isn't something we have any plans for enabling in the near term. If the position of this idea changes we will share an update here.

The work flow is this:
June 1 - project begins
June 10 - project is complete
July 1 - receive a bill from a vendor for closed project. At this point if the project is marked closed it is IMPOSSIBLE to enter a bill and assign it to a closed a project.That is unhelpful. I would like to be able to assign bills to closed projects, the same you can create an invoice and assign it to a closed project.

Thanks so much for sharing your feedback on this idea, community. We appreciate that having to manually select attachments on every invoice can feel a little fiddly. We get that you want a smoother workflow, that saves you time.
As noted by others in the idea, one option for now would be to add standard files, like your terms and conditions, directly to your invoice template. That way, they'll be included automatically when you send out your invoices.
To confirm how this functionality currently works - this is based on the user and driven by the last invoice that was sent. Where you have files attached, and you had selected to include files as an attachment when emailing the invoice, the next invoice you send with file attachments should have this selected by default.
A caveat to this is when you are working in incognito mode, or refresh your browser…

Agreed. at least 70% of my customers want to receive a W9 WITH their invoice. Sending in a separate email is annoying for all involved. I suppose I could create a template with the W9 embedded as an image in a Word document, but there are plenty of other pieces of information, banking details, proof of licensure, which clients sometimes require. I wish I could upload these docs to Xero and then check off which ones to include in a particular invoice.

Hi everyone, though there isn't any progress to share on this idea we do want to provide and update for you all and thank you for engaging with us about this here.
We understand the desire and needs for being able to change or set a separate reply to email address when sending from your Xero organisation.
We're continuing to make improvements to sending of invoices in Xero however at this point our roadmaps does not extend to the email settings specifically.
This continues to be an area we're interested in diving deeper into in the long term and we'll be sure to share as soon as there's movement.
For the time being the only way to change the Reply-to email is to update this on the email settings screen prior to sending your transaction and change it back post sending. Thanks

Thanks to everyone that’s shared interest in being able to write-off invoices or bills as a bad debt. We understand how a direct feature would enhance your use of Xero and flows when trading.
As shared in our last update, while not a one-click solution we appreciate the needs expressed for being able to record bad debts right now, and have a Xero Central article that provides a way of currently accommodating this in Xero today.
There are also other options that have been shared by members in this conversation that some may want to explore.
We want to be open that specific bad debts functionality isn’t planned for invoices or bills at this time, but we understand the needs here and it’ll continue to remain high on our team’s radar when reviewing and prioritising their roadmap.
With differing product teams and needs for this functionality within invoices and bills…

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.
The new bills approval flow which we’re currently developing is an example of this - once available admins…

It's hard to believe that Xero needs this explained to them, but since they asked...
The majority of invoices I receive via email do not include a separate attachment that I can easily "share" to Xero Expenses. The full UX on an iPhone is:
Find Email>find the reply button at the bottom of the specific email, not the thread > Press Print > Press Share > Share to expenses.
Clearly, it would be a lot faster if I could forward the email directly to xero expenses. I know it's possible to forward the email to Hubdoc, but it's impossible to assign an expense to a PROJECT in hubdoc, so that isn't really helpful.
