Hi everyone, a year on from my last engagement we wanted to provide an update for you all here.
As many will be across we're in the midst of making a lot of iterations and improvements to new invoicing leading up to the retirement of classic invoicing in September (2024).
We have a fair amount of work lined up in the teams schedule over the coming months and to give an indication there isn't any committed plans around a function to add interest to invoices.
That said, we do have a team that have picked up and are considering how we might solve this with the technology in new invoicing - It's early days on this yet, but I'll share if there's any progress on this for you all here.
In the meantime, as has been shared by others over time there are a few ways you could accomplish this…

Hi community, we really appreciate your feedback on this and hearing why you'd like to be able to change the organisation's name that's shown when sending invoices from Xero.
This is on our teams radar, and is something they may look into longer term however we want to be open that it's not in the current roadmap.
We'll continue to track and keep across the interest from our community, and if there's any news to share we'll update you on this, here.

Thanks everyone for your feedback on the invoice print option. We know how much our customers value efficient workflows, and appreciate you sharing your thoughts on how the current "Print PDF" button works.
For those of you looking for a smoother printing experience, a helpful workaround is to set your browser to automatically open PDFs in your preferred viewer after downloading. This can save you a few clicks in the process.
In the interest of transparency, a direct print PDF functionality that go through the download step isn't in our development plans.
You can continue to vote on this idea so if our position changes in the future we will update you all, here.

572 votesHi community, we appreciate the continued traction this idea's received, and do want to provide clarity and set expectation.
Your feedback has been valuable in understanding the needs of using description only lines to; add subheadings, provide context for grouped charges, and ensure your invoices are easy for your clients to read and understand.
To reconfirm, atm - You can add one-off description only lines as you enter an invoice. However, if you add detail to any other field the line will be treated as a 'financial' line and you'll need to include Qty, Unit price, Account and Tax rate.
- We know some users have set up and saved inventory items for description only lines they commonly use, however as the item code field is used for inventory items the line of the invoice is treated as 'financial' meaning you'll then need to include Qty, Unit price, Account and Tax…

Hi community, we appreciate your on-going support in this idea.
We wanted to confirm that sending invoices via SMS is now available in Australia, New Zealand, the UK and the US.
Sending invoice reminders via SMS isn't in our current roadmap, however we appreciate wanting consistency in sending methods and we're continuing to keep this in mind as we develop our invoice flows in Xero.
We'll move this idea to Accepted for the time being and be sure to share if there's any developments surrounding this to share with you all here.

Hi everyone, thank you for continuing to share how important it is to clearly identify bills that need attention before they’re paid. We understand the impact this has on teams managing bills and avoiding payments being made before a query is resolved.
While a user control flagging mechanism is not directly in the pipeline yet, we want you to know that your feedback and the volume of support here is getting to the right places.
Our product teams are continuing to consider this wider workflow (not just adding a standalone flag) as they plan and shape our direction for bills.
We’re working towards making it easier to manage payments out of your business, with clearer ways to understand which bills need action as part of a more connected bills and payments experience.
The new bills approval flow which we’re currently developing is an example of this - once available admins…

Hi everyone, thanks for all of your valuable feedback on this idea. The number of detailed comments clearly show how important this feature is for many of you.
We also agree that this would add significant value to Xero Expenses. That’s why we’re pleased to update the status of this idea to Accepted. This means we have reviewed your feedback and it aligns with our product vision.
While it is a feature we’d like to build, it’s not currently on our roadmap, so we can't provide a delivery timeframe just yet. We will share another update on this thread as soon as we have more news.

Thanks for your feedback on this idea, community. We appreciate you sharing how important consistent Profit & Loss formatting is for your workflows.
As noted by some, currently you can export the report to Excel in order to make adjustments outside Xero as needed.
To confirm, currently, if a tracking option doesn't have transactions in the period, there won't be a column for that option and there isn’t a way to show it on the report.
Being open, we don’t have any plans for changing the current behaviour and capabilities of tracking columns within the Profit & Loss report. We value your feedback and will keep this in mind as we evaluate future reporting enhancements.
That said, there are a few comments within the thread that reference the ability to show accounts that have a nil balance - Earlier this year we released an option within multiple reports to enable…

I would love to see this feature added to Xero. This is much more secure than providing an authorized user with a signature stamp because they could very easily be removed from Xero and unable to authorized payments as opposed to having to physically take back a stamp.

Thank you for your engagement and feedback on this idea. We’ve seen some great suggestions in this thread on how a password-protected lock date could work. The current lock date feature prevents new transactions from being entered and can only be removed by Advisor level users, but we recognise that some users would benefit from introducing password protection.
As part of our new Xero Product Idea process, we have recently reviewed the idea and shifted this to “Accepted”. This reflects that this is an idea we’d like to develop, but that this isn’t currently on the roadmap. We'll be back with another update as soon as we have more to share.

Hi team, thank you for sticking with us on this one. Online bill payments are now live in Australia through Airwallex, so you can pay supplier bills directly from Xero without logging into online banking.
As mentioned in my last update;
- In the US we have bill pay powered by Melio, with quick payments and contact syncing.
- We offer bill pay with Crezco for our UK customers, including international payments with 32+ currencies supported.
We’re reviewing the experience across additional regions and will continue to share updates as we learn more and make further progress.

There should be a function to add automatic late fees and or interest on a contact-by-contact basis or just at all especially since you can't apply a late fee after a partial payment without reversing that payment. Xero needs to add the option to add either a fixed/one-time, daily, weekly, or monthly late fee OR interest percentage or a combination of both.
