Hi community, first off thank you for the continued interest and feedback surrounding this idea. We’re continuing to build on the bank reconciliation experience in Xero and recognise the ways this feature will help improve the efficiency, flexibility and transparency of transactions in your business. Our team have done a lot of exploration into being able to surface and match Credit Notes when reconciling your bank account in Xero, and this is now in development.
We’ll shift the idea here into ‘Working on it’ and continue to update as there’s more detail of this to share.

Hi everyone, we appreciate wanting to hear from us on this idea and apologies for not commenting sooner. I can assure you this has not gone unnoticed and internally there have been reviews and discussions for how batch payments can be improved. We have the appetite, but as with all developments this must be weighed up and considered against many other important changes needed in product.
We want to be upfront that developing the ability to include Credit notes in Batch payments has not been planned at this stage.
As some may have seen, we do have work going on around being able to include Credit Notes as part of the reconciliation process. We understand for many on this idea the timing of including credit notes when you’re creating the batch payments is crucial, however we hope that when delivered at least being able to reconcile these more efficiently…

This would be extremely helpful. Sometimes in batch paying bills to pay a credit card, there is a credit from a supplier for which there currently isnt a bill open, or that isnt included in that batch at least. Currently the credit note cannot be included as part of the batch without it first being applied to a bill. However if there arent any open bills in that batch for the same supplier, it means changing the name on the credit to a different name so it can be applied first and thus included in the batch. This is very frustrating and tedious, and simply inaccurate! Please allow this feature to work on bills - and also on AR invoices! When a customer sends payment for several invoices and a credit note as well, once again the credit note has to first be applied to an outstanding invoice before the payment can be entered.

Hi everyone, appreciate there are more regions users would like to see us adopt solutions for and we'll keep you in the know of any progress, here.
In the UK, we have some updates with the bill payments method with Crezco. You now have more control of your cashflows with the ability to schedule bills to be paid at a future date using direct bank transfer. This'll help avoid potential bank charges for same day transactions, and missing due dates. Along with this you'll also be able to stay up to date with your payments with real-time payment status in Xero. Meaning you don't have to log into your bank to check the status of each bill payment. With an overview of all payments made using direct bank transfer, you have an accurate record of which suppliers have been paid, and when.

@Debbie - what we have done in this situation is apply the credit notes to some of the invoices being paid so they are accounted for. then when you select all the bills you are paying in that batch the total will match up to what you actually paid. It's a pain to do it that way (and we shouldn't have to) but it works until Xero can realize we need the ability to include credit notes in a batch.
