    Hi everyone, thanks for continuing to share your feedback and explain how important it is to be able to add dates to individual line items on invoices.

    While this specific idea isn't directly in our pipeline at present, we're looking more broadly at how we may extend documents to better suit more of our customers' needs. We'll be taking this idea into close consideration as part of that work.

    For now, as noted in my last update the best option to accommodate this in lieu of a direct field is to add the detail to the Description field of the line.

    If there's any progress, we'll be sure to let you all know here.

    Hello Kelly Munro not a convincing answer to the problem. This has been an issue for several years. I am in the process of transitioning to Xero from Reckons and thank heavens found out early that there is no column for service date. Shocked and deeply disappointed!!! We are a service base company that attend to businesses in hospitality, age care, just to name a few, multiple times a week and it essential that we have a column for date of service on our monthly invoice. When I realised that this not an option, which in fact should be a simple basic feature on an invoice I have decided that I will be remaining with Reckons. To say this is not in your future plans is simply LAZY and CONCEITED!

    Hi everyone, we’ve taken time to review the suggestion to include custom fields for both invoices and contacts, and recognise the value it'd bring in helping users capture more detailed information and avoid manual processes.

    However, with other focuses drawing the teams attention such as multiple addresses this idea is not on our current development roadmap.

    As we continue to plan future roadmaps, being highly supported this idea will continue to be considered, however we want to be open about it's current position with you all here. We appreciate you sharing your feedback and for your ongoing participation in the Xero community. Any changes to this status will be shared with everyone on this idea.

    I am converting from Reckon to Xero and paid and just realised that there is no column on the invoice to add a service date. We have the majority of our commercial cleaning business customers on a monthly single invoice that require several service dates within that month. Just realised that this is not possible.
    Extremely disappointed as heard the Xero was the Rolls Royce in business programs.
