   Hi everyone, we thoroughly appreciate everyone’s interest and support for enabling the ability to apply a prompt payment discount to invoices.

   We understand how a direct prompt payment discount feature would improve the efficiency and automate manual efforts currently involved for you all here, but would like to be transparent that this isn’t something we’ve been able to roadmap atm.

   Right now, one way to indicate that your business accepts or will apply a discount for prompt payment would be to write this into the invoice payment terms. When acted on there are a few ways you could consider recording this in Xero, such as;

   • Edit the invoice to apply a discount directly
   • Edit the invoice to add a negative line that directly draws down the total amount of the invoice
   • Apply a credit to the invoice for the portion of the discount

   We'd recommend connecting with your Xero advisor on how they'd recommend recording this in your org.

   Alternatively, there are connected invoicing apps that you can explore through our Xero App store.

   We'll continue to track support through this idea, and our product teams will continue to consider this in future planning, so if there’s any updates we’ll share here. Thanks

   This is also vital for customer statements, and ideally where the discount could be calculated and displayed automatically e.g.

   "Pay the balance of your fees before 31st March 2023 and save [5% of their balance shown here in € ]"

   This feature is vital, find it strange that Xero would not want to include it. Please add as soon as possible.
