Hi everyone, we appreciate the interest in being able to add dates to individual lines of an invoice. Currently our team are focused on improvements to new invoicing and we want to be upfront we don't have any plans for adding a date column to the details grid within an invoice atm.
Right now if you do require dates for individual line items we'd recommend adding these within the Description field of the line.
We will continue to review this as we continue to evolve the product. If there are any updates or changes, we'll share this all with you through the idea here. Thanks

The date a service was provided is a critical piece of information required by our clients. We have jobs running over several days that are grouped and invoiced and need to show each individual day/date line item and expense. Previously I have used MYBO which has allowances for this. We utilise allocations software which pushes job information into Xero - the fact that Xero does not have the ability to customise available fields from that software during exporting is poor.
I would hope that this matter is attended to as a priority.

Hi everyone, we’ve taken time to review the suggestion to include custom fields for both invoices and contacts, and recognise the value it'd bring in helping users capture more detailed information and avoid manual processes.
However, with other focuses drawing the teams attention such as multiple addresses this idea is not on our current development roadmap.
As we continue to plan future roadmaps, being highly supported this idea will continue to be considered, however we want to be open about it's current position with you all here. We appreciate you sharing your feedback and for your ongoing participation in the Xero community. Any changes to this status will be shared with everyone on this idea.

I have spoken to a support technician and also previously popped my comments on the Xero Product Ideas however after reading other client comments regarding the same issue it doesn't appear that Xero are really looking or considering making this change. From a users perspective, this is absolutely needed so I'm not sure why this wouldn't be made a priority.

I am very surprised to learn that Xero does not have this available. From a business point of view, when using accounting software, the date a service was provided is a critical piece of information required by our clients. We have jobs running over several days that are grouped and invoiced and need to show each individual day/date line item and expense. Previously I have used MYBO which has allowances for this. We utilise allocations software which pushes job information into Xero - the fact that Xero does not have the ability to customise available fields from that software during exporting is poor.
