Hi everyone, we appreciate and thank you for contributing to product ideas. The implementation of autosave in new invoicing originally came from feedback we received from our community - Many customers entering invoices, where their data could be lost if they closed the window or logged out of Xero accidentally.
With the move from classic to new invoicing in the past year we appreciate hearing more feedback on this feature from our community. There are differing points of impact that you’ve shared, and is all highly valuable information to our product teams.
However, to set a realistic expectation we want to be honest that we don’t have any planned work for removing auto save.
If you find something you suspect could be a bug and isn’t working correctly in autosave, we recommend raising this with our Support team via Xero Central and providing details - This way our team can investigate and escalate directly with our product team if there’s an issue.
We know this isn’t the response you’re hoping for, but hope that giving more clarity will ease some ambiguity. This does not mean we’d never make a change, and should any plans surrounding autosave be made we’ll gladly update you of this, here.
For the time being, as autosave kicks in once you add a contact to your invoice, if you’d really like to prevent your invoice from saving as you're entering data you could avoid adding the Contact until you're ready for Save to kick in.

Please delay turning off of Classic Invoicing until the autosave feature is provided. Autosave does not allow my pre-populated Invoice Number field to be incremented to the next available invoice number when I delete the pre-populated information. It just puts the old info back. Completely stuffs up our process.
