    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.

    Hello XERO team.
    I am also requesting an amendment to the program so that extra columns/custom fields can be added to the invoice format.
    We have a livestock transport business and require to have date; description/comment and then require to calculate the columns for distance x rate x decks carted.
    I am actually quite surprised that his option is not available already, as, although I am not a tech wiz by any means, but I would not think this would be a big amendment to do and one that would be greatly appreciated by many.
    Hoping you can seriously consider this to become available.
    Many other accounting programs do have this ability.
    thankyou for your consideration.
