Hi everyone, we understand you'd like more consistency in the documents you send from Xero and appreciate all your feedback on Remittance customisation here. While we have longer terms intentions to improve branding across Xero, this is not roadmapped for development at present.
We'll continue to stay connected to the idea here and engage to share when there is opportunity to develop in this space.

Hey everyone, we've seen all your votes and comments, and we totally get it – not being able to schedule one-off invoices or pick specific send times is a real pain point. Your feedback makes it clear how much time it costs you and how it can affect your client relationships.
Right now, repeat invoice templates go some way to providing some automation. But we know that's not quite what you're asking for when it comes to those one-off invoices or more precise timing for all your emails.
The good news is, our product team is digging in to the work that'd be needed to develop a solution, and figuring out the best way to make this happen. While we can't give any promises just yet, please know that your feedback is a huge part of this discovery process. Keep those comments and votes coming!
We'll post another update here…

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 &…

Suggest this -> https://productideas.xero.com/forums/939198-for-small-businesses/suggestions/45224872-bills-ability-to-return-an-unpublished-bill-to-d be merged into this idea.

I'm relieved to have stumbled over this idea, as the similar one I originally had found (above) had what I thought to be an amazingly underwhelming level of support for what I think is a fundamentally essential feature.
This would be **EXTREMELY** useful.

Thanks for your support on the idea, everyone. We thoroughly appreciate your participation, and letting us know where you'd like to see change across Xero.
Customer statements, is an area of Xero that needs upgrades to it's technology in order to make ideas like this one here possible.
Currently, while we have plans for modernising this space soon we cannot commit to any new developments for Statements until this work has been complete. Once this has been done I'll round back to the idea here when we can reset the objectives.

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…

Hi community, sometime on since my last post we wanted to provide an update for your all here and appreciate the continued attention this idea is receiving.
We want to be upfront that at this time focuses for the team are in other areas of bank reconciliation and we don't have any current plans for developing the ability to import and export bank rules from an organisation.
We understand and know this is important to everyone that has voted for the idea and will continue to review and pay close attention to the feedback and votes here. When there is more opportunity for the team to refocus efforts here we will keep you informed of any progress.

Hi everyone, a year on from my last engagement we wanted to provide an update for you all here.
As many will be across we're in the midst of making a lot of iterations and improvements to new invoicing leading up to the retirement of classic invoicing in September (2024).
We have a fair amount of work lined up in the teams schedule over the coming months and to give an indication there isn't any committed plans around a function to add interest to invoices.
That said, we do have a team that have picked up and are considering how we might solve this with the technology in new invoicing - It's early days on this yet, but I'll share if there's any progress on this for you all here.
In the meantime, as has been shared by others over time there are a few ways you could accomplish this…

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!

Hi community, thanks for the strong support in being able to attach files within Xero Payroll, both for employee records and pay runs. We really appreciate you sharing the value and efficiency this could create for you when working with Xero. It's evident that being able to store important documents like licenses, sick notes, and onboarding papers directly in Xero would remove the need for external storing systems or manual processes.
We acknowledge it's not the end goal but wanted to highlight the use of apps, as some have shared like Dext, to help bridge this gap in the meantime.
I want to assure you that enabling attachments in payroll is part of our long-term intentions. However, to deliver this functionality effectively and reliably, we first need to develop some foundational elements within our payroll platform.
We understand your frustration with the timeline and the limited updates, and we're…

I would go further and suggest that instead of a big green "Well Done! You've Reconciled Everything" when all bank feed statement lines are matched, that confirmation should display a list of any/all unreconciled transactions.
The real-world workflow/intention does have people completing the feed reconciliation and then navigating off to somewhere completely different to run a reconciliation report. For the vast majority, allocating the bank feed and getting the big green confirmation is the end of the process.
Being aware of un-presented items being an important part of that process, they should be represented somewhere obvious in that workflow. Having to run a separate report is NOT an appropriate solution.

Thank you for sharing your thoughts on the possible solution we shared a few months ago. After careful consideration taking all feedback on board, we will not be moving forward with this solution.
We're still considering how we might solve for the issues presented here over the long term and there are other pieces of work the team are currently delving into such as duplicate bills detection that may also help solve some needs here.
That said, we'll move the idea back to Submitted and continue to keep you updated on any progression that can help the needs expressed through the idea here. Thanks

Absolutely agree!
I'm in disbelief at the low level of support for this idea. I can't tell you how many times, I've accidentally clicked as approve then have to void and re-enter to get it as "Waiting Approval".
This would be **EXTREMELY** useful.

Thanks for your interest and sharing your needs in being able to add a Contact to Manual journals you post in Xero. We know this is important for customers and enabling this capability is on our product team's roadmap.
Right now, they're currently focused on other important items of work, however as soon as we're able to dedicate resource to this I'll be back with a further update to share progress with everyone, here.

This refers to the same idea as referenced in https://productideas.xero.com/forums/939198-for-small-businesses/suggestions/46028776-search-by-contact-account-number
And as I commented on that link - It makes sense that ANYWHERE I can search or filter by contact name, I should also be able to search or filter by contact account number.
What is the point of it if you can only make use of it here and there?

This also applies to searching/filtering bills/invoices awaiting payment, currently you have to use the contact name.
Realistically, you are either using contact names or accounts numbers for entry or lookup. It makes sense that ANYWHERE I can search or filter by contact name, I should also be able to search or filter by contact account number.
Really is a half finished "feature" if it's not always available. Don't think I'll hold my breath though.

It's really a severely lacking option in terms of maintaining a professional presentation/image, when you cannot adapt a remittance advice to be consistent with other documents produced by your business.
I'm not sure whose address / email address / contact info actually fits in the pathetically skinny column available for this information on a remittance advice without being split over multiple lines and looking completely disgusting.
The only saving grace is that everyone knows what accounting app you're using when they get one these horrible things and generally knows there is nothing you can do about it.
