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 everyone, some time on since my last update I wanted to give you more of an idea of the work we have going on to help reduce the number of steps and actions in new invoicing. Along with the changes mentioned in my last update, we've since released a change to the view of an invoice to shift details back into their own columns (similar to classic), while a small change we know it's improved visibility for some of our customers.
We also have other work in development atm that’ll further help here like a new line item grid when editing your invoice - wrapped up in this we’ll be introducing changes you’ve been asking for like the ability to create a new tracking option or account code without having to navigate away from the invoice, we’re increasing the number of items that you can view from the drop…

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.
