    Not in pipeline  ·  AdminKelly Munro (Community Manager, Xero) responded

    Hi community, we understand there are differing needs in this idea for why you’d like a separate posting date alongside the invoice or bill date. Whether it’s for reporting, compliance, or just a more accurate view of when things happened.

    While this has been carefully considered, we want to be transparent with everyone here, that this is not something we have plans for developing in the near term.

    We know given the interest in this that this is not the update you’re hoping for, and please know that we’ll continue to track votes this idea receives for future consideration. We’ll keep you posted if things change down the line.

    We need this so badly but with an amend: not just posted date, but a Billing Period?

    Then a quarterly bill could be set as being across three months, and all we would need the system to do is auto-create journals to make the full invoice cost spread across the three months in question.

    All I think people are asking for is that the system can create the journal for you on creation of the invoice, to speed up the process. It should be possible to have a journal created to put an invoice cost in a previous period, so then its no different to create 3 or 12 journals.

    Could have drop down options for last month, last quarter, this quarter, this year or manually select.

    It would mean that the Xero P&L would actually be useful, instead of always wrong.

    Yes absolutely, I just set up all the groups and found there was no data and no way to use the historical info we have.
