Hi everyone, as another step toward improving history of new invoicing you'll find you'll now see an entry when an invoice is sent, and the email address it has been sent to.
We appreciate this is something we've heard a fair amount of feedback on and we hope helps in your journey to using new invoicing.
We still have more enhancements on the way for history and I'll be back again when more updates land.

Hi team, now in 2025 and many here will have received our recent communication leading up to the retirement of classic invoicing on 27 Feb this year.
We’re continuing to work hard on delivering more features within new invoicing that’ll help most in your workflow.
Thanks for staying engaged with us on changes that’ll help you through the idea here.
To give an update on recent deliveries that positively impact some of you that have shared on the idea here. Late last year we released improvements to the issue and due date fields so you can now use all the date entry shortcuts that were available in classic, and we made it simpler to access the date picker. We also updated the Files attachment modal so you can now drag & drop files anywhere on the page, and when you use tracked inventory you can see the number of items…

Feedback on the Updated Email Invoice Template: Prioritising Client Experience Over Financial Details
As a business owner wholly committed to providing exceptional customer service, I've encountered significant issues with the new email invoice template that I believe warrant urgent attention from the Product Team.
1. Focus on Experience, Not Payments: Our aim is to immerse our clients in a seamless service experience. By prominently featuring payment details in the email, it inadvertently shifts the client's focus from the quality of service to financial transactions. Clients should have the option to review detailed financials at their discretion by accessing the invoice themselves.
2. Redundant Summary Details: Entities responsible for payments meticulously review each invoice item to process payments accordingly. Therefore, summarising these details in the email adds no functional value and complicates the payment process, as they cannot merely pay a lump sum based on the email summary.
3. Simplicity is Key: Our clients prefer straightforward communication. The additional elements introduced in the new template clutter the email, deviating from the clean and direct format that our clients appreciate.
4. Privacy Concerns: The new template increases the risk of financial information being exposed inadvertently or through security breaches. The visibility of invoice details within emails could potentially reveal sensitive client data to unauthorised viewers, thereby compromising privacy.
5. Request for Consistency: The Classic Invoicing system's email template was well-received and effective. Is there a specific reason why the Product Team cannot maintain this format? Keeping it would avoid these issues and support our goal of delivering an undistracted, high-quality client experience.
I believe reverting to or allowing an option to maintain the Classic Invoicing email template could significantly enhance the service experience we strive to provide. I would appreciate the Product Team's consideration of these points and look forward to a resolution that aligns with the needs of businesses focused on providing an exceptional client experience.

100% agree. The invoice amount in the email must be removed or at a minimum be optional.
Because of this one aspect alone I have stopped recommending Xero to people.
