Hi everyone, we’d like to round back to share an update that the ability to accept deposits has now rolled out to all AU, NZ, UK, CA, SG and US organisations, and we expect to make this available to remaining regions soon.
Staying close to feedback from its release, our team have recently added a due date field in which you can select a specific date that payment of the deposit is expected if this differs from the Invoice due date.
I look forward to looping back to finalise once we’re at 100% roll out of deposits, and give you a hint of where we’ll be expanding functionality next!

Great news, but saying that you can't give "specifics on a timeline" feels like a deflection. A clear commitment to this idea is not really present, it feels like you're kicking the issue down the road to take the heat out of our collective frustration.
Please prioritise this because it's too important of a feature to us, and we can't afford to be hanging around for another year in hope that you'll add it.

@Daniel Morris: This is such a basic feature that is common (and helpful) accross many other platforms. I can only conclude that Xero are willfully ignoring developing this feature.

Please Xero, just get this long overdue feature done. We're growing tired of the cumbersome workarounds we have to use just to approximate this feature.

Thanks for everyone’s continued support in this idea. We’d like to update here that accepting a deposit on an invoice is now live to all organisations that use Stripe in AU, NZ, UK, US, CA and SG with remaining regions soon to come.
We know this doesn’t yet cover fuller progress-payment and instalment workflows, and we recognise those are important for many of you. We’ll keep returning here with more news as work in this space evolves.

I appreciate Xero finally making a statement about this in August. Unfortunately, it isn’t a very strong commitment and feels more like an attempt to ease the pressure around this issue than to actually resolve it.
If we’re still waiting for this feature a year from now, we’ll be moving to another platform that already offers this feature. The workarounds have become too cumbersome, and we simply don’t have the time or capacity to keep managing this issue.
