    Hi community, we'd like to provide an update for you all here with backorders for tracked inventory now in the process of rolling out to customers.

    As this rolls out, customers will be able to approve sales invoices for tracked inventory even when there isn't enough available stock.

    Your stock on hand will be allocated straight away, and the remaining quantity goes on backorder. Incoming stock is then automatically allocated to the oldest approved backorders.

    This coupled with the ability to track the receiving of goods from a Purchase order through to Bills will help solve for needs shared in this idea.

    We throughly appreciate all your input through this thread and will come back to confirm once this roll out reaches 100% of users. 😊

    Hi community, we appreciate everyone's engagement here. To confirm we have intentions of developing the purchase order experience, however developing Projects into this does have some complexities and requires work across both purchase orders and projects to deliver.

    Right now our initial focus is releasing the new purchase order experience to all users.

    While we don't have a timeframe for assigning PO's to Projects at this stage, this is top of our product teams radar and we'll communicate here as soon as there's an update.

    Never thought I would say this, but Quickbooks has far better functionality in Projects. I am really disappointed that Xero cant seem to get this sorted
