Thanks to everyone who's shared how a second reference field on bills would support supplier invoice numbers, purchase orders and job references. We appreciate the strong appetite for this improvement and the practical examples provided.
Some groundwork has already been completed, and while this isn’t in our immediate pipeline, it's high on the teams radar and something we would like to pick up.
Though we can't commit to development just yet, we’ll keep you updated here of any progression.

Hi everyone, thank you for continuing to share how important it is to clearly identify bills that need attention before they’re paid. We understand the impact this has on teams managing bills and avoiding payments being made before a query is resolved.
While a user control flagging mechanism is not directly in the pipeline yet, we want you to know that your feedback and the volume of support here is getting to the right places.
Our product teams are continuing to consider this wider workflow (not just adding a standalone flag) as they plan and shape our direction for bills.
We’re working towards making it easier to manage payments out of your business, with clearer ways to understand which bills need action as part of a more connected bills and payments experience.
The new bills approval flow which we’re currently developing is an example of this - once available admins…

Changing the Sales invoicing by just moving functionality around and in the process make the resulting layout less user friendly compulsory is clearly more important to Xero than adding the "on hold" bill functionality.
Shame on Xero's "development" priorities.

Hi everyone, we appreciate the on-going investment from our community here.
We'd like to share an update as we're continuing to expand future-dated bill payments across regions.
To recap;
- In the UK, we have Xero’s bill payments solution with Crezco, that lets you schedule bills to be paid on a future date using direct bank transfer, with payment status available in Xero.
- In the US, Xero bill payments with Melio also support scheduling a payment for a specific date.
Next up is Australia, where we’re developing scheduled payments for online bill payments powered by Airwallex.
We’re hoping to make this available to customers over the coming months, and we’ll share another update once this becomes available.

Unfortunately we will not use this functonality until future bill payments is an option.
Due to the excessive costs charged by the banks for same day payments I do not believe that we will be the only Xero customer not willing to incur substantial additional bank charges by using Bill payments via Open Banking / Crezco.
Crezco tell me that the functionality is available on their software but not via Xero. They say this is on the Xero 'roadmap' but are unable to say how long the road is......

Hi everyone, we appreciate you continuing to highlight how account ordering affects budget preparation and review.
We've launched new Analytics Budgets (currently in early access) and being able to reorder Account Lines is planned.
Being open this will not sort automatically by GL number, but once available you'll be able to drag accounts into the order that suits you within each account group, and the order is saved for each budget. 😊
I'll keep you updated of news for this, here.

I echo all the points made.
Another example of the dumbing down of accounts function and general belief of non-accountant software programmers that numbers are difficult for non-accounts people. They are not.
What's the point of account numbers if not be able to sort by them?
This seems like and easy and basic thing to correct.I would like to be able to hide the accounts that aren't used by all the budgets I have.
There should be an option for follow the custom P&L format.
Add an additional input box called Invoice Number to replicate AR view in AP i.e. so AP has Invoice Number and Reference fields too.
This may enable Capture to work with bills as currently Capture is not recognising the Reference field as the Invoice (bill) number when creating a draft bill.
The Reference field could then be used for a PO number.
