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.

@Maya, we have almost exactly the same situation where the work is done for XYZ company but they need it invoiced to Division A - XYZ Company.
It's so frustrating that Xero won't listen to the end users. It seems like they are just interested in providing the bare minimum and anything else they want to sell you the add-on or partner apps like Workflow Max, etc.An error occurred while saving the comment Gavin Smith

@Eunice to be honest, if you're remotely happy with ZOHO, I'd just be moving there, Xero do not listen to customer requests, regardless of how many people may want a feature.
I am a director on 6 companies. 3 of which are on Xero and we are currently looking at the options to move all of them away from Xero.Gavin Smith

Hi all, we appreciate this idea has picked up a good amount of interest. This has all been shared with and considered by our product teams.
As the Contacts screen interacts with many other parts of Xero, this work can not commence until the modernisation of other, related systems is complete.
Due to this, we do not expect account numbers to be automatically generated for contacts to be delivered in the coming short-term.
In the meantime however, we're keen to continue collecting feedback and votes on this idea, and we will provide an update here when there's more details to share.

Don't know why I actually bothered voting, Xero doesn't monitor these requests or listen to their customers feedback anyway.

We appreciate wanting to see more rapid movement, everyone. Having done a lot of exploration into this area our team have a good handle on the needs to solve this, however we want to be honest that development will be some time away with the team currently focused on improving bills list views and updating add/edit bill pages. For the time being to keep you up to date we're going to move this idea back to Submitted until more active work takes place for this.
I can assure you this idea is the best place to be leaving feedback for this feature, and Xero Product Ideas as a whole is the best place to be sharing where you'd like to see change across Xero products. As a community team we're advocating on your behalf constantly to see where ideas can be worked on, and this site is where our product…

Hi community, we appreciate this idea has collected a fair amount of votes and commentary. This has all been feedback and taken seriously by our product teams.
Currently, there are ways to record a bad debt in Xero, depending on your tax registration status and how you want the transactions to be recorded in your reports - We have help for this on Xero Central you can draw into.
We don’t have any plans in the near term to expand functionality to develop a button to write off invoices or bills as 'bad debt'. If anything changes in this space, we’ll update you on this idea!

In reply to Angela Cooke. DON'T DO IT. So many customers are currently looking to take their clients AWAY from Xero
Make sure you have a read of the over 400 comments on the following discussion (https://central.xero.com/s/question/0D53m00009n36b9CAA/petition-for-xero-executives-regarding-alleged-improvements)
Also have a look at the product ideas forum and the hundreds of requests for improvements that are ignored in favour of "enhancements" to an existing functionality (New Invoicing) that has made it worse and users want it reversed.
