Hi Wojciech, if an invoice or bill has already been paid there is no amount left outstanding for the invoice. It sounds like you'd like the ability to easily copy the detail of an invoice to a credit note? I've slightly updated the title of your idea here, for this.
If this doesn't quite reflect it'd be great to get more detail of scenarios you'd in which your business receives a credit note for a completely paid invoice or bill.

Hi everyone, we wanted to return and give you an update here. As mentioned in our last post - we want to be forth right that we don't have any plans to remove 'Powered by Xero' from emails sent from Xero, with intentional purpose and based on findings from interactions we can see having true benefit to customers in getting paid faster.
That said, we appreciate the feedback we've received and have made changes since this was initially raised to reduce the size of the footer where this is shown and have removed the hyperlink to xero.com. We will continue to develop the invoice email to continue to drive improvements for our customers and the ways you receive payments.

I am sorry to say, but that is a poor response from Admin on this.
Our customers trust emails from us, not ones that look like they are coming from third-party accounting software. How long before scammers jump on the generic Xero-branded emails? At least with our solo-branding and customisation, there is something unique to our emails that they can recognise and trust.
As stated below, if the key reason behind this is trust, let us make that decision and make it an option - include your 'data' and source on the trust benefits by the toggle button if you wish, just don't make it mandatory if you want Xero customers to 'trust' your intentions.
Instead, focus on allowing the option for emails to be sent from our trusted company domains. If you believe this affects open rates, then again let this be our decision to make.

I emailed Xero support to request for this to be removed and they asked me to give feedback here on Xero Product Ideas, following which they could then action my request. In their response, they said: "...this implementation is a transient state while we move to a V2 email experience that has a more subtle implementation of this concept."
I want to strongly suggest that even a subtle implementation of this concept goes too far. I would be disappointed to see anything like this become mandatory (or even the default setting) on paid tiers. It is unprofessional enough not to be able to send emails from your company domain, never mind having something else promoting Xero in the email body like a logo or some mandatory text.
I would like to vote for nothing other than the option to completely remove any reference to Xero in email communications and I expect many users would feel the same.
It is enough to push you to another accounting package, that allows you to present your company more professionally. Imagine if every Microsoft Word document you created, or email you sent from Outlook, said "Powered by Microsoft" in the footer and this couldn't even be removed. This is disappointing from Xero.
At the beginning of January 2024, I requested that the "Powered by Xero" branding be removed from our emails and left a comment here at the request of Xero support. Following this, it was removed. However, yesterday, without warning, it has returned.
I imagine this may have affected other customers in the same situation, so posting it here to raise awareness.
