Completely agree that being able to mark an outstanding billable expense as paid, ideally referencing the invoice number, is an important and useful addition to Xero. Likewise being able to add billable expenses to a part paid invoice.
Part of this invoicing issue for companies that quote full jobs with state payments is the ability to generate part invoices from the master invoice setup when a quote is converted to an invoice. This would be revolutionary!
At the moment we have to create the invoice for the whole job in Xero from a quote, then manually invoice the client outside of Xero using the Xero invoice number followed by a, b, c. Then record part payment in Xero against the real invoice. Very clunky & having to raise some manual invoices outside of Xero is not ideal/best practice.
