Hi community, thanks again for all the support and very honest feedback you’ve shared on this idea over the years.
We appreciate the manual steps to apply credits are time consuming, especially if you’re managing large volumes of these on a regular basis.
We'd like to share that we've now developed functionality that allows Xero to suggest relevant unpaid credit notes as matches when you’re reconciling. We’ll be releasing this feature slowly to all users over the coming weeks.
You’ll also be able to find and select Credit notes using Find & Match - Just make sure you tick "Show Received Items" (for spent statement lines) or "Show Spent Items" (for received statement lines) so the credit note appears in the list.
When you select a Credit note to Reconcile, Xero will create a cash refund against the credit note (rather than allocating the credit to a specific invoice automatically), instead of requiring you to set this up separately first.
Front footing here, we know this solution won’t yet cover all the scenarios customers have asked; for example, overpayments and prepayments, and including credit notes in bill payment batches are still out of scope for this phase - We’ll continue to monitor feedback to help inform where we take this next, so please do continue to share through Xero Product Ideas and the ideas I’ve linked above.
As this becomes available in your business, you’ll see a message within Xero highlighting the new behaviour and where to find credit notes in bank rec.
Once this is available to 100% of customers, we’ll come back to update everyone here and provide more detail to help with understanding exactly how it works, and making the best use of this feature.
Thank you again for your patience, persistence, and for sharing real examples of how this impacts you, they’ve been critical in shaping what we’re delivering here.

Totally Agree!
Allocating credit notes to often unrelated invoices (bills!) is illogical and unduly time consuming
Just let us use them through Find and Match!!!
