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 you have on hand to sell.
This year we’ve made updates to bring more actions into the body of the invoice, so you can now add tracking options on the fly, or set or edit the exchange rate on foreign currency invoices. And, as of this week we’ve released a whole set of new shortcuts to save clicks and help you quickly perform common actions like being able to Approve an invoice which we know is valuable to our customers! 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.
We have more updates in store like changes to the Contact ‘To’ field that I mentioned in my last update and improvements to the line item grid within the body of your invoice. You can read more of what’s to come on Xero Central.

INVOICE ADDRESS - says no address or takes a while to display the address
ADD PAYMENT - I do no quite understand why it's at the top. This means i have to scroll to the very bottom to figure out what other partial payment were made. Also unable to copy and paste an amount into the amount section when adding payments.
EXTRA CLICKS to send an invoice - not convenient
The invoice format is so overwhelming, i personally prefer a more compact view.
Annoyingly slow.
When sending an invoice i need to click "send me a copy" every time whereas the older version i only have to tick the box once and this would apply to all future invoices.
When emailing an invoice unable to modify the recipient email, you will need to remove it and retype it.
New invoicing is so much more work!!!
