    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…

    Hoping for an update on when there will be the option to have black lines without inventory.
    Also, when will we be able to add blank lines as per the classic invoicing.
    I would not have thought that this would be be a huge issue. It is common sense. It is also critical to the way we invoice, given the detail and information our clients require.
    Please provide an update as to when these features will be reinstated.

    Hi team, thanks for sharing detail of the value in this idea in the ways you invoice.

    We've just released a new line item grid in invoicing which includes the ability to manually add blank rows and shift these to where you're like them placed in your invoice.

    That said, I want to be transparent in how this works - When you save your invoice any blank lines will be removed. So, if you'd like blank lines to help break your invoice into sections, you'll need to enter a character in the Description field of the blank line. Even a full stop '.' or dash '-' would suffice.

    As a matter of urgency, I really require the option of adding blank lines to an invoice or a quote as per the Classic Xero version. My invoices are varied and sometimes require alot of additional information. In the Classic version I am able to do this and move lines around and add blank lines. The new version does not allow this although if you go to the help menu in the new version is says you can. Please, please bring this option back.
