   Hi everyone, a year on from my last engagement we wanted to provide an update for you all here.

   As many will be across we're in the midst of making a lot of iterations and improvements to new invoicing leading up to the retirement of classic invoicing in September (2024).

   We have a fair amount of work lined up in the teams schedule over the coming months and to give an indication there isn't any committed plans around a function to add interest to invoices.

   That said, we do have a team that have picked up and are considering how we might solve this with the technology in new invoicing - It's early days on this yet, but I'll share if there's any progress on this for you all here.

   In the meantime, as has been shared by others over time there are a few ways you could accomplish this today;

   • Include detail of any charges for late payments to your invoice template Payment terms & details, and
   • Edit and add a new line to your invoice to add the late fee - you could make use of Xero's inbuilt calculator for this, or
   • Edit and add a 'mark up' to each line of your invoice - again Xero's inbuilt calculator could help with calculating the amounts
   • Explore Xero's app store to see if you can find an integration that works for your business needs
   • In an effort to prevent late payment of invoices Credit limits may help in being able to prevent customers raising too much debt with your business

   We appreciate the options above don't automate the full process of what you're asking here, and we will share if there's any news. Thanks

   Hi everyone, we appreciate your support and feedback for having a Repeating Invoices Report. 

   We know that not having a dedicated report for your repeating invoices can present limitations when trying to forecast sales.

   As noted by others in the idea, while not a complete solution there is the Receivable invoice detail report, that will provide results for invoices that have already generated from a repeat invoice template. There is also Short term cashflow predictions in Xero Analytics Plus that can predict recurring cash transactions based on the past 3 months reconciliations. 

   For more comprehensive forecasting, some users have found third-party apps that integrate with Xero to be helpful - You can view the full suite of official apps on our Xero App store. 

   While we understand these aren't ideal long-term solutions, I want to let you know that there's no work currently planned to develop a specific repeating invoices report. 

   We appreciate your understanding, and if there's any change for this in the future we'll share an update with you all here.

   Clare we've used Beanbox.app in the past to solve this issue. It integrates nicely with Xero. It is a paid service, but there's a 30 day trial so you can try it out and see if it works for you.
