Hi team, discovery went well and has provided good insights to our product team. Things have now moved along and I can share that we're working on a solution that'll enable you to schedule when an invoice is sent, and the ability to cancel a scheduled send if needed. 🙂
In early stages right now, but I'll share more news as this progresses. Thanks!

Am I reading this correctly that 7-8 years after this idea was originally put forward, only now is it even being considered for development by Xero? How many more years will we have to wait for it to come to fruition, I wonder?

I send a number of clients a regular monthly invoice for the same amount each month, but with slightly different details each time (such as the month in which the work was carried out), so a repeating monthly invoice is no good for me.
However, being able to create all the invoices ahead of time and have them sent automatically on a specified date - which is also what I would need if I were away, seems like an obvious feature to have.
Please include this feature!

I appreciate not every idea can be incorporated, but this was originally proposed in 2015 and still nothing has been done about it.
Surely Xero doesn't believe the validity and value of an idea is based solely on the number of people who vote for it here? I know many Xero users who don't even know the forum exists, let alone are bothered to contribute.
An idea like being able to schedule invoices shouldn't need thousands of votes as it's a basic simple function (not necessary in implementation, I appreciate that, but from a user's perspective) that should come as standard. I mean I can schedule emails to send on my free email client software, which is rarely needed, yet on something as potentially valuable as scheduling invoices to send, I can't do that on a platform I pay for.
Can someone at Xero PLEASE respond/acknowledge this thread and give us some idea of whether or not, after 8 1/2 years, this idea will ever be implemented?
