   Thanks for everyone's support in this idea. We understand the strong feelings expressed in your comments, where an invoice can be accidentally approved when still needing to go through a review or remain in a draft status. 

   As suggested by some users in this thread, if this has already occurred an option for now would be to add a note to the history of the invoice so other users are aware of the action and what needs to be done, or alternatively Void the invoice and copy to a new Draft invoice (consider if you need to change the invoice # before voiding the approved one, so you can use this on the new draft invoice). 

   While not a resolution for this idea, to avoid mistakenly approving an invoice an option could be to make use of the keyboard shortcuts that are now available in invoicing such as Save & Close which is Alt-Shift-C on Windows or Opt-Shift-C with a Mac device. I get this might be a slight adjustment to your workflow, for some to get used to. 

   We want to be upfront with you all here, that though we understand the high interest for this feature it's not something we have plans to develop in the foreseeable future. We'll share if there are any developments that'd be of interest to you all surrounding this flow.

   Yes agreed , certainly a very useful facility for the situations explained by Nadine.
   We are not live in Xero yet and lack of this feature will certainly cause problems.

   Hi community, we acknowledge the strong feelings in this idea and why you need a feature to flag bills directly within Xero. We really appreciate all your feedback and the detailed explanations of how this would help streamline your accounts payable.

   We are dedicated to providing a solution for this over the longer term, but this will take some time requiring changes that sit beneath the face of bills.

   In lieu of a direct feature for this we wanted to highlight some of the options discussed by the community here:

   • Add a note to the bill: A detailed note on the bill itself can serve as a clear internal reminder of the dispute.
   • Utilise tracking categories: Creating a specific tracking category like "Disputed Bills" can help you filter and report on these items.
   • Adjust the due date: Temporarily extending the due date can prevent accidental payment while the dispute is being resolved.
   • Update the reference to add a notation such as [reference number] - Do not pay
   • Adjust the planned date to be very far out in the future

   We know these options won't fit all needs here, and we are invested in continuing to develop Purchase and more specifically bills in Xero to suit your needs.

   We'll continue to provide updates with any progress that steps closer to enabling you to flag bills that are in dispute in Xero. Thank you for continuing to engage and share insights through this idea.
