Thanks for sharing here, team - Currently, once you've selected an inventory item on a row of your invoice, if you click on the Item code field again you'll see the option to Edit which will open the item details modal for you to make changes, Save and continue on invoicing.
Understand some users may like this to be more automatic based on what you're entering in the line. I want to be transparent that we don't have plans around this and would need to consider how we make this optional for different use cases but for now we'll track the interest through the idea here.

Hey Team, thanks for sharing this idea but right now Xero doesn’t have a dedicated pro‑forma invoice document type in Quotes or Invoices. We are moving this to Gaining Support so others can Vote and Comment.
The main workaround is to use a Quote as your pro‑forma (with wording like “Pro‑forma invoice – not a tax invoice” in the template), then convert the quote to an invoice only once the amount is confirmed and you’re ready for it to hit your accounts.
You can find more detail on how pro‑forma invoices work in our guide:
What is a pro forma invoice? – https://www.xero.com/nz/guides/what-is-a-proforma-invoice/

Hi everyone, appreciate your continued feedback on new invoicing. As mentioned in my last update we've now added a new Xero Central page for new invoicing.
Along with updates to individual ideas on Xero Product Ideas, this page will become the single source of truth for key feature rollouts including:
- what’s available in new invoicing right now,
- timelines for features and enhancements going live in new invoicing, as well as
- a comparison table between the classic and newer versions of invoicing.
We'll be updating this page regularly.
Relating to some of the more recent feedback there are some existing ideas that may also be of particular interest that you can join, like the ability to see the email the invoice was sent to in the history, or being able to see a timestamp, and reducing clicks and steps.

Thanks for your feedback on the recent update of the payment section on an invoice. I've made sure to share this back with our product team and we will keep you updated if there is any further updates planned around the reference behaviour you've described, here.
Also appreciate that users that are making multiple payments would like to stay within the invoice and we have a separate idea for this here that we'll share any updates through.

Thanks for sharing this idea about showing on invoices, the credit note numbers that have been applied to them.
We've reviewed this idea, and now it's up to the community to get behind and support it.
You might like to share a link to this idea with any colleagues that this could benefit, so they can add their votes and comments too!

Hi Nic, thanks for sharing this idea. We can see how helpful it would be to paste invoice details straight from a spreadsheet. It'd make the process faster and easier, especially for longer invoices.
For now, one option is to use the Import feature. By pasting your spreadsheet data into Xero’s CSV template and uploading it, you can create invoices in bulk. It’s not quite direct copy-paste, but it’s a quicker way to handle larger invoices.
We’ve moved this idea to Gaining Support to understand how many of you would find this useful. If you can, let us know what tool you’re copying from and which columns you’d most want to include, your feedback will help guide what we look at next.

Hi community, there isn't currently the ability to select and choose which invoices you'd like to bundle and send together. However, we recently released the ability to include an online statement link when sending Outstanding statements to your customer which may solve for some of the needs here.
If you've set up Stripe as a payment service the customer can select and choose which invoices to pay from the online statement - Find out more in Xero Central.

Hi team, as mentioned in my last update this is already possible with the option to export invoices as a CSV. This will download your invoices with the detail in a CSV format that could be used for some of the purposes described here.
I want to be open that we don't have any plans at this time for enabling a download of multiple invoices at a time as separate PDF documents.
While the idea will moved to Not in pipeline voting will remain open, and if it does pick up traction from the community we may revisit.

Hey Nikki, thanks for sharing this idea.
Now it's up to the community to get behind and support it. Make sure you share your idea with any colleagues that this could benefit so they can add their votes and comments too.
In the meantime, it is possible to bulk Approve invoices from the Draft tab. Once this is done, you'll get a message where you can click 'View invoices' and select them all to then Email.

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.

Can you bring back the 'how many days due' on the preview of a draft sales invoice please, it worked before, it takes way too long now to calculate when payment is due based on the day you actually send each invoice out
Our invoices are due 30 days from when a customer receives them not 30 days from the invoice date, i think that's mentioned as a legal requirement as quoted :
'As a rule, the customer must pay the business within thirty (30) days of 'receiving' the invoice, goods, or service. unless, you make a mutual agreement to settle the bill on a different payment date'

Hi community, as mentioned in my last post we want to keep you looped in on changes around autosave.
Our product team has continued to focus attention on how we can make invoicing faster and more responsive to improve our customers' experience.
We've now optimised autosave to require less processing power, leading to faster invoice loading and saving.
While we don't have any plans to remove autosave, there is the possibility that we would make updates to improve experiences related to autosave in the future - I've provided links below to ideas that have been raised and remain open for consideration;
- Invoicing - Undo/revert to previous version of an invoice
- Exclude Auto Save from History and Notes
- Invoices - Add invoice number when invoice is Approved
Thanks again for all your feedback and sharing with us in the forums here.

Please turn auto save invoicing off in draft,
if a typo is done in error, that's a big time-consuming problem ???I like someone else's comment below 'I often here my staff having issues when a change to an invoice is made by mistake, accidentally removed an item, line, description or changed a value and then BOOM you have no way to revert or undo the change thanks to the overzealous Autosave.
Whats happening at Xero HQ?, you are removing and replacing things that worked well, before ?

Hi team, leaning into the new year our teams are deep in discovery and research of how we could best solves for the needs here.
We'd like to invite you into this process to provide further input to our product teams discovery.
If you'd be interested, register your interest with our team through this link - Your feedback would be invaluable to our teams. Thanks!
I'll be back to share more again as this progresses.

Thanks for everyone's support in this idea. We understand the strong feelings expressed in your comments, where an invoice can be accidentally approved when still needing to go through a review or remain in a draft status.
As suggested by some users in this thread, if this has already occurred an option for now would be to add a note to the history of the invoice so other users are aware of the action and what needs to be done, or alternatively Void the invoice and copy to a new Draft invoice (consider if you need to change the invoice # before voiding the approved one, so you can use this on the new draft invoice).
While not a resolution for this idea, to avoid mistakenly approving an invoice an option could be to make use of the keyboard shortcuts that are now available in invoicing such as Save &…

Hi team, while the status of this idea remains unchanged from our last post we did want to provide an update in the channel here.
As shared previously there's the possibility of exploring third-party apps like Google's High Contrast, which allows you to change the colour on your screen so it's easier to read.
Our Xero Accounting app is a bit of a different kettle of fish and for iOS users there is a dark mode available from the 'Appearance' option that you can navigate to from the 3 dot menu in the top right of the app screen.
Though we fully understand and appreciate needs for wanting dark mode, the ability to develop this requires resource from across all areas of product to implement in the web version. Providing dark mode is not on our current roadmap.
If there are any further changes to share we will provide further…

Just to add on to another users request (see organisation settings - Dark mode) highly voted request
Could you please consider the darker mode theme on Xero for those who have light sensitivity or migraines due to white screens etc

Hi everyone, we appreciate your input and sharing detail of how you'd like to see this developed to help suit the needs of your business.
We want to upfront that we don't have plans for developing this in the next year. However looking further out to the future, our teams will continue to review and consider how they might build inventory in Xero to cater for units of measure.
If you're after an immediate solution, it might be worth exploring connected apps that can integrate with Xero and cater for your business needs. As soon as there's any change or news around this to share we'll be sure to update our community and all of your interested in this, here.

Hi, fellow Xero users, ive found a workaround for you even if Xero arent helping on this one.
If you put in the email address in Xero to email to yourself instead of the customer it will send them all individually to you instead of your customer and then you can prepare a single email for you to then attach each pdf invoice.
Its still a bit of work to do just the same, but instead of your customer getting tons of individual invoices in emails you get them instead, to prepare for them as 'one email' with 'all' the pdf invoices you need to send.
