Thanks for your interest in this idea, everyone. We understand there are different ways our customers find useful when entering dates for invoices in Xero.
Based on feedback our team are looking at improvements to the date pickers in new invoicing. While I can't confirm exactly what these will entail atm, we'll shift the idea to working on it and I'll be back to confirm when we have more of the detail.

Hi everyone, thanks again for continuing to share your feedback and examples on this idea.
We’ve now done some initial discovery on this and can see the value it could provide for businesses needing assembly or bundled inventory capability in Xero.
This is something we’re interested in solving longer term, however there is a bit of complexity involved in the work and it hasn’t been roadmapped at this stage.
When we are able to get this planned in the pipeline, we’ll be sure to update you here and keep you informed on progress.

We have contractors and also internal labour, and would like to split their revenue on the invoice between accounts, but not to show this on the invoice.
eg
Sales - internal labour hours
Sales - contract labour hoursinvoice shows:
Labour Hours

I understand Xero are trying to make invoicing easy and visible for the plumber on the go using their tablet and pudgy fingers.
But a great many of us have 24-36" screens and sit at a desk either in stand-alone finance roles, or as business partners for the tradie/small business person.
As the finance partners that help a business make decisions, Xero may wish to develop "new" invoicing for the mobile users, and maintain "classic" for those of us that suffer RSI from the data entry.Damon O'Keefe

It’s interesting to hear the different ways our users invoice and we appreciate you sharing how we could improve the flow of entry for you here. Being open this isn’t something we have plans for right now, however as our team plan further developments within invoicing, we’d like to engage you all here. To help our product teams get a better understanding of our invoicing users for future improvements, we’ve put a survey together and would love to hear your feedback through this.

The ability to rearrange the order of data entry would be a big improvement in New invoicing.
Currently, the expense code and the Profit Centre are separated by the tax code.
This is not logical or intuitive when entering data.Damon O'Keefe

561 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…

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…

when entering dates, it is easier and less taxing (haha) to use a period -- . -- rather than a forward slash -- / --.
I could do this in classic, but not in "improved".
Bring back this functionality.
It saves stress on my right hand!
