Hi everyone, we appreciate and thank you for contributing to product ideas. The implementation of autosave in new invoicing originally came from feedback we received from our community - Many customers entering invoices, where their data could be lost if they closed the window or logged out of Xero accidentally.
With the move from classic to new invoicing in the past year we appreciate hearing more feedback on this feature from our community. There are differing points of impact that you’ve shared, and is all highly valuable information to our product teams.
However, to set a realistic expectation we want to be honest that we don’t have any planned work for removing auto save.
If you find something you suspect could be a bug and isn’t working correctly in autosave, we recommend raising this with our Support team via Xero Central and providing details - This way our team can investigate and escalate directly with our product team if there’s an issue.
We know this isn’t the response you’re hoping for, but hope that giving more clarity will ease some ambiguity. This does not mean we’d never make a change, and should any plans surrounding autosave be made we’ll gladly update you of this, here.
For the time being, as autosave kicks in once you add a contact to your invoice, if you’d really like to prevent your invoice from saving as you're entering data you could avoid adding the Contact until you're ready for Save to kick in.

Needs to have the option to "turn off" autosave or UNDO actions. The history doesn't even allow you to view the previously saved versions so there is no way to track changes. This is incredibly frustrating and causing major issues.
