    Hi community, we appreciate this idea has collected a fair amount of interest which has all been shared with and reviewed by the product team.

    While this isn't currently being worked on there are other ideas this team are working on right now, including a bulk void feature and highlighting rows when selected. Although these features are still under development process and we don't have confirmed release dates yet.

    With regards to having a separate field for the posting date and invoice date, our team is interested in better understanding this idea as it may be something they look to develop down the track. They really appreciate and encourage you to continue to share your experiences, pain points and insights. This will help them understand how this feature can benefit you and other customers, as well as gauge demand for it.

    As always, if there's any change we will…

    You have had this requirement for 2 years and still you are prioritising useless stuff like bulk void features when your standard invoice does not have the basics.
    Really Xero all this "beautiful" nonsense is a waste of your developers time.
    Look at your competitors and get the basics right.
    Xero is clunky and shows its DOS origins

    Hi everyone, we thoroughly appreciate your engagement and sharing how custom fields would be advantageous to you here.

    With lots of work for 'building on beautiful' underway atm, we want to be honest that custom fields is not planned in the near term.

    Some in the idea here, may find the recent addition of Notes that can be added within the Contact Details section of a contacts record useful in being able to record and view specific detail relative to a contact at present - More on this shared here

    We'll continue to evaluate the viability of largely voted ideas such as this when there is resource, however this unlikely in the next 12 months.

    Kelly you answer is unacceptable. A service invoice with dates is essential to almost any business if you cannot do custom fields at least at a very minimum provide a date field on a standard invoice.
