    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;

    Thanks again for all your feedback and sharing with us in the forums here.

    I echo the request to turn off auto save, I prefer to save my changes myself when ready & not have the long audit trail that happens when it keeps auto saving.

    I use copy invoice facility but that requires minor amendments (such as desc, lead ref & amount) but each time it auto saves & leaves a trail in notes of each tiny amendment I make. I always switch back to classic as it gets on my nerves.

    At one point I wanted to preview an invoice & auto save was lagging behind slightly so my change didn't show, other times it's super quick so it saves before you really want it to.

    Prefer ability to turn it off please so I can control how often it saves.
