    Hi everyone, to front foot some of the recent comments we will not be bringing back classic invoicing. With developments continuing within new invoicing, we do want to let you know that our product teams are highly engaged with your feedback and the ideas for new invoicing on the site.

    We understand there's good interest in being able to add a payment directly from the invoice screen and appreciate the efficiencies expressed by customers in being able to do this. At present we're reviewing this feature and will move the idea across to Under Review. I'll be back to share more on the outcomes. Thanks

    Hi community, thanks for getting involved here and letting us know the importance around being able to see the details whenever an invoice is sent from Xero. We understand the importance of this to our customers and our product team are beginning to review this idea to solve needs in this space. We'll move to Under review and I'll let you know as there's more progress here. Thanks

    Hi everyone, we appreciate your continued input and feedback on this feature here. Being able to copy to purchase orders and bills is something our team are monitoring feedback of closely and very much across the this idea, however there are a few other priority pieces of work that are currently of focus.

    Right now, it is still possible to copy an invoice to a purchase order or bill from the list views(Draft, Awaiting approval, Awaiting Payment or Paid tabs). You'll find you can select the invoice/s and click 'Copy to...' - You can find out more detail and ways of doing things within new invoicing through our guide on Xero Central.

    We'll keep you in the know here of any progress or updates for this feature.

    Be told by (Natascha - Support specialist) to vote here again.
    As Xero will not be fixing the bugs I've reported with Autosave.

    Autosave is broken!
    Why is it even on by default?
    Who used for this feature?
    Just opening a daft invoice apparently classifies as an edit in "New Invoicing"!

    Programming Autosave #101, Before implementing Autosave, implement versioning and versioning rollbacks.

    Appreciate the short videos and can see what you're saying, Chris - Have you raised a case with our Xero Support team about the slowness in loading?

    Actual slowness in the page loading are issues that we'd like to dig into deeper as they aren't occurring for all users so it'd be good to be able to investigate one on one with our Xero Support team who can escalate if needed. Thanks

    Kelly, this is a regular problem that is regally reported on the community posts.

    New Invoicing loads 156 resources, loads in around 15-20 seconds
    Classic loads in 7-8 seconds

    Tested on a very fast NBN connection on the computer with 12-cores and 96GB of memory
    Classic by no means has a good load time but New Invoicing is 2-3x slower. Not on mention actually using New Invoicing, start typing a customer wait ..... add a new item wait ....

    Why does New invoicing have to load 17 CSS resources some of which are loaded 3 times with the same contents or sorted slightly differently and 30 scripts.

    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

    Thanks for your continued engagement with us through this idea, team. As mentioned in my last update this idea spans different areas that you see defaults automating and improving efficiencies in how you invoice with Xero. 

    Since my last update, we've released some keyboard shortcuts to help with navigation and entry in some areas of invoicing, and we delivered the ability to invoice to your contact groups within the new experience. 

    As mentioned while we don't have plans for changing the behaviour of the select options when sending an invoice, these are driven by your last selection, using web browser settings. 

    Recently, we made a slight change to the way defaults are applied when you copy and invoice for a contact. So, now when you copy and invoice to the same contact defaults from their contact will be applied to the draft invoice, which aligns with the way this worked…

    Thanks for all your feedback here, everyone. The way you add description only lines in new invoicing is a little different to classic and we wanted to explain in hopes it'll help with how you're using new invoicing. 
    When entering a description only line, you can enter text in the description field of the line. If you add detail to any other field the line will be treated as a 'financial' line and you will need to include Qty, Unit price, Account and Tax rate.
    When an inventory item is added this uses the item code field and the line is treated as 'financial', so it's not possible to use inventory items as description only lines in new invoicing atm.
    We appreciate this is how many of you here have been making use of inventory and our product team are closely monitoring the feedback we're getting on this. Though we don't…

    Thanks for your support on the idea, everyone. We thoroughly appreciate your participation, and letting us know where you'd like to see change across Xero.

    Customer statements, is an area of Xero that needs upgrades to it's technology in order to make ideas like this one here possible.

    Currently, while we have plans for modernising this space soon we cannot commit to any new developments for Statements until this work has been complete. Once this has been done I'll round back to the idea here when we can reset the objectives.

    Hi community, we appreciate this idea has collected a fair amount of votes and commentary. This has all been feedback and taken seriously by our product teams.

    Currently, there are ways to record a bad debt in Xero, depending on your tax registration status and how you want the transactions to be recorded in your reports - We have help for this on Xero Central you can draw into.

    We don’t have any plans in the near term to expand functionality to develop a button to write off invoices or bills as 'bad debt'. If anything changes in this space, we’ll update you on this idea!

    Hi everyone, a year on from my last engagement we wanted to provide an update for you all here.

    As many will be across we're in the midst of making a lot of iterations and improvements to new invoicing leading up to the retirement of classic invoicing in September (2024).

    We have a fair amount of work lined up in the teams schedule over the coming months and to give an indication there isn't any committed plans around a function to add interest to invoices.

    That said, we do have a team that have picked up and are considering how we might solve this with the technology in new invoicing - It's early days on this yet, but I'll share if there's any progress on this for you all here.

    In the meantime, as has been shared by others over time there are a few ways you could accomplish this…

    We appreciate wanting to see more rapid movement, everyone. Having done a lot of exploration into this area our team have a good handle on the needs to solve this, however we want to be honest that development will be some time away with the team currently focused on improving bills list views and updating add/edit bill pages. For the time being to keep you up to date we're going to move this idea back to Submitted until more active work takes place for this.

    I can assure you this idea is the best place to be leaving feedback for this feature, and Xero Product Ideas as a whole is the best place to be sharing where you'd like to see change across Xero products. As a community team we're advocating on your behalf constantly to see where ideas can be worked on, and this site is where our product…

    I was able to write an app within a few hours to pull all the infomation that would be required to create a 'bank feed' from the GoCardless API.
    As for the obtuse Xero API, there is no ability push 'bank feeds' or write new entries into 'bank accounts'.
    I've previously spoken the Xero about their API imitations, which some feture are apparently only available to select partners.
    Surely a Xero dev would be faster than me a part-time basic level programer. Surly they could get this task completed and tested in 1-2 hours.

    I've given up on GoCardless + Xero. It does not work

    Why has Xero merged the seperate topic of 'WebAuthn - passwordless, 1 step, 2FA' into this idea?

    This idea is not the same, And Microsoft dev article does not even metion WebAuthn even thought its been a standard for 8 years.

    For best authenticaion practises just go copy how Google does it!
    Mainly choice of 2FA/MFA
    - Passkey / WebAuthn < Xero does not support
    - Hardware FIDO2 keys < Xero does not support
    - OATH RFC6238 TOTP < Only one device supported
    - In app prompt via push < Xero does not support
    - SMS TOTP < Xero does not support
    - Email TOTP < Xero does not support
    - Backup OTP Codes < Xero does not support

    Google supports any and all of these, any mix it the users (or Workspace admin perference).
    Google allows multiple of the same type can be used, i.e. two OATH apps or multiple hardware FIDO2 keys. All very easily audited, each method can be separately removed and is tracked when it was used.

    Whereas Xero currently only supports a single OATH device/app. :'(

    Microsoft's short number match is very insecure, nobody else in the industry uses this method!

    If you want Microsoft's short number match to be supported, it would be better for Xero to intergrate single-signon OAUTH with Microsoft, Google, and other auth providers.

    Really should of had WebAuthn support years ago.
    We use YubiKeys' for WebAuthn authentication with all other online services, even internal sites.

    Apple also uses WebAuthn for Passkey which was announced Jun 6th 2022 at WWDC 2022.

    Hi everyone, as another step toward improving history of new invoicing you'll find you'll now see an entry when an invoice is sent, and the email address it has been sent to. 

    We appreciate this is something we've heard a fair amount of feedback on and we hope helps in your journey to using new invoicing. 

    We still have more enhancements on the way for history and I'll be back again when more updates land.

    Hi we have stopped using the GoCardless integration and moved our repeating invoicing to another service.

    Xero does not even support moving the Direct Debit charge date ahead of the due date, as our current platform supports and where to find any large opperator do this a norma practise.

    I was using the old 'GoCardless for Xero' integration, Which is not longer under deleopment by GoCardless.

    The new GoCardless as a payment method integration is developed direcly by Xero.

    Now a long list of non working fetature since we switch over, which was recommended by Xero.

    Soy you may need to look elsewhere, as Xero has clearly communicated to me that the new integration is working as expected

    I suggest this aswell years ago, Xero silent removed the suggestion one day.

    The Stripe payment method supports this.

    And GoCardless API calls allow for query of fee amount before requesting payment so you can get an estimate.

    Good luck
