Thanks for the response and continued support in this idea, everyone.
Work for partial billing of a purchase orders is taking shape. ✨
To give a taster of what this'll look like - when you create a bill from a purchase order you'll be able to enter the amounts of each item you'd like to bill, and your Approved purchase order will show the amount of each item Billed.
I'll come back to share as soon as the feature begins roll out!

I love how every time Xero makes changes (without a Product Idea), to get back what we customers had before, we have to raise a Product Idea.

And now Xero have applied the same process to customer statements. A summary of the statement information is now on the email template, with no ability to supress.
I don't often email statements to myself so can't see exactly when this occurred, but happened sometime between July 2025 and now (March 2026).

Thank you for sharing your idea, Stuart!
We’ve updated the status to Gaining Support. It’s clear that having the option to manage suggested email addresses would help streamline the invoicing process and reduce the chance of sending invoices to the wrong contact.
If this feature would improve your workflow, we encourage you to add your vote or share your thoughts in the comments. Your feedback helps inform future improvements in Xero.
Thanks for being part of the Xero Product Ideas community!

Hi community, we appreciate your continued feedback on having different default email addresses for various transaction types in Xero contacts, and the manual steps involved to ensure you're communicating with the right person for different purposes.
Currently, one way of managing this in Xero would be to include every additional person on a contact record in emails, and then removing those that aren't required when sending each transaction. However we totally get this isn't the ideal solution.
While being able to set different email addresses for differing transaction types is something we want to address longer term, like the idea for multiple addresses work for this feature requires cross-collaboration between teams in order to achieve.
Once the multiple addresses feature is live this is something we'll be able to consider more closely and provide further updates on.
We do regularly review all ideas here, and your input is vital. We'll…

Hi everyone, appreciate the feedback here. As you may have noticed we have made some changes to the Contact field within new invoicing over the past few months to improve the experience.
When entering a contacts name, the contact's shown are results from your existing contact record.
As a start to help with cleaning up contacts that have been created in error you can either edit contact records, or merge contacts that may have been created as duplicates in error. This will help limit the number of contacts that are appearing in results when you type a contacts name on an invoice.

Hi everyone, appreciate the continued interest and support this idea receives.
I know it's been sometime since our last update, and I understand frustration in recent comments wanting more news on where this is at.
I want to confirm our product teams still have good intentions to develop the ability to copy to a purchase order from within an invoice, however with the current option of being able to copy to from the invoice list and prioritisation of other pieces of work this isn't roadmapped just yet.
I totally get the needs here and hearing how you found this feature so useful. As soon as there's further news we'll make sure to share this with you all, here. Thanks

Thanks so much for sharing your feedback on this idea, community. We appreciate that having to manually select attachments on every invoice can feel a little fiddly. We get that you want a smoother workflow, that saves you time.
As noted by others in the idea, one option for now would be to add standard files, like your terms and conditions, directly to your invoice template. That way, they'll be included automatically when you send out your invoices.
To confirm how this functionality currently works - this is based on the user and driven by the last invoice that was sent. Where you have files attached, and you had selected to include files as an attachment when emailing the invoice, the next invoice you send with file attachments should have this selected by default.
A caveat to this is when you are working in incognito mode, or refresh your browser…

Launched but poorly executed.
1) In a pop up window as executed, it's impossible to go through a 60+ line bill to match a PO, suppliers often bill out of order from the PO and I often order duplicate lines on the same PO. Needs to be full screen as per other software platforms.
2) Original PO is overstated after receiving good. The total seen on the Po screen is the original PO value (say $20,000). Receiving almost all of it moves that value form a PO liability to a payable liability. BUT, your execution leaves the PO at 20,000 when most of it has been received. It overstates the order.
3) I am yet toi be advised of a way to interrogate the inventory received/yet to be received data. I run back order reports for my suppliers to keep track of outstanding inventory. Currently my report shows everything as ordered on the original PO, even if 50% has been received. IN the data options of reporting I am unable to find, and you are unable to tell me, where the data of the received/yet to be received items can be found.
4) You have removed the option of 'copy to bill' from the PO screen. If the user does copy to bill form the PO overview Xero is unable to save multipole draft bills from the same PO. It overwrites any that are created by the last one. Deliberate. You prevent users from using the process they had developed over years, to using your a new process, on a Sunday without warning or the option to maintain business as usual.
5) Xero support tell you this is excellent feedback that the development team need (I suggested the team needed it prior to launch). You then get told to 'suck eggs, this is the way it is'. After requesting to be reverted to prior PO/billing I have got donuts from you. Xero has shown once again you don't care about us, you care about you and doing things your way.
Very frustrated as I am yet to find a solution to processing large multi line PO's to bills and maintain (my) business data integrity.
