Hi team, now in 2025 and many here will have received our recent communication leading up to the retirement of classic invoicing on 27 Feb this year.
We’re continuing to work hard on delivering more features within new invoicing that’ll help most in your workflow.
Thanks for staying engaged with us on changes that’ll help you through the idea here.
To give an update on recent deliveries that positively impact some of you that have shared on the idea here. Late last year we released improvements to the issue and due date fields so you can now use all the date entry shortcuts that were available in classic, and we made it simpler to access the date picker. We also updated the Files attachment modal so you can now drag & drop files anywhere on the page, and when you use tracked inventory you can see the number of items…

Hi community, we’ve just released some new keyboard shortcuts to new invoicing, that cut down the number of mouse clicks and help you perform actions on your invoice with some simple keyboard entry options.
There’s a range of different shortcuts that you can explore, and in particular a few that I wanted to call out for ‘Approve’ options that I know will be of most interest to you, here;
- Approve (Ctrl-Alt-A OR Cmd-Opt-A on a Mac)
- Approve & add another (Ctrl-Alt-O OR Cmd-Opt-O on a Mac)
- Approve & print PDF (Ctrl-Alt-R OR Cmd-Opt-R on a Mac)
- Approve & email / send eInvoice (Ctrl-Alt-E OR Cmd-Opt-E on a Mac)
While you get used to the combinations of shortcuts our product team have added small prompts to highlight these in the product, and if you’d like to view the full list of options you can see them all on Xero Central.

New invoicing is a HUGE downgrade for those of us using it to enter multiple invoices from a previous period (day/week/etc.). Any change that results in more key presses or mouse clicks is a functional downgrade. Mouse clicks require you to move your hand, find the cursor and the button which takes way more time than a few key presses. That is UI design 101 people. You've made tabbing between fields harder. If I want to enter a new customer I now have to execute a mouse click instead of just a tab press. If I want to save/approve and add another, also now a mouse click. What if I want to add a payment after approval? Now a couple of mouse-clicks and dialog that is not keyboard friendly. And the new date widgets are not nearly as navigable with the keyboard as the old ones. I would challenge your designers to a race: let's both enter 5 invoices using either classic or new invoicing. Classic will beat new hands down.
