    Hi community, as mentioned in my last post we want to keep you looped in on changes around autosave.

    Our product team has continued to focus attention on how we can make invoicing faster and more responsive to improve our customers' experience.

    We've recently optimised autosave to require less processing power, leading to faster invoice loading and saving.

    Our decision remains that we won’t be adding an option to turn off autosave on invoices. However, we hope this change improves your experience with autosave in draft invoices over time. Thanks again for your feedback.

    There still seems to be no progress towards making the draft invoice auto save "feature" optional !!

    VERY inconvenient that draft invoices auto-save. I usually create invoices by copying from an existing invoice. The first auto-save happens even before I've typed the invoice # I would like to use rather than the one Xero likes to allocate. the continual auto-save also creates a massive history trail which makes it then difficult to see my history of actual changes.
    Since at least February 2024, users have been requesting that auto-save be either removed or made optional. Will this happen before the legacy version (without auto-save) is removed??
