Hi community, first off thank you for the continued interest and feedback surrounding this idea. We’re continuing to build on the bank reconciliation experience in Xero and recognise the ways this feature will help improve the efficiency, flexibility and transparency of transactions in your business. Our team have done a lot of exploration into being able to surface and match Credit Notes when reconciling your bank account in Xero, and this is now in development.
We’ll shift the idea here into ‘Working on it’ and continue to update as there’s more detail of this to share.

Thanks for your support on the idea, everyone. We thoroughly appreciate your participation, and letting us know where you'd like to see change across Xero.
Customer statements, is an area of Xero that needs upgrades to it's technology in order to make ideas like this one here possible.
Currently, while we have plans for modernising this space soon we cannot commit to any new developments for Statements until this work has been complete. Once this has been done I'll round back to the idea here when we can reset the objectives.

Hi team, wanting to provide an update to you here, we want you to know we understand the efficiency more users would like to have in being able to automate the creation of the Xero subscription invoice inside their Xero org.
To highlight from my last update for UK users this is possible with eInvoicing through the online invoice (My Bills page).
This is still something we're interested in developing in more regions however isn't planned in our roadmap just yet.
When resource opens up for us to be able to pick this work up we will share an update with you all on this here. Thanks for staying engaged and supporting in this idea.

Hey everyone, we've seen all your votes and comments, and we totally get it – not being able to schedule one-off invoices or pick specific send times is a real pain point. Your feedback makes it clear how much time it costs you and how it can affect your client relationships.
Right now, repeat invoice templates go some way to providing some automation. But we know that's not quite what you're asking for when it comes to those one-off invoices or more precise timing for all your emails.
The good news is, our product team is digging in to the work that'd be needed to develop a solution, and figuring out the best way to make this happen. While we can't give any promises just yet, please know that your feedback is a huge part of this discovery process. Keep those comments and votes coming!
We'll post another update here…

Hi community, we appreciate your continued feedback on having different default email addresses for various transaction types in Xero contacts, and the manual steps involved to ensure you're communicating with the right person for different purposes.
Currently, one way of managing this in Xero would be to include every additional person on a contact record in emails, and then removing those that aren't required when sending each transaction. However we totally get this isn't the ideal solution.
While being able to set different email addresses for differing transaction types is something we want to address longer term, like the idea for multiple addresses work for this feature requires cross-collaboration between teams in order to achieve.
Once the multiple addresses feature is live this is something we'll be able to consider more closely and provide further updates on.
We do regularly review all ideas here, and your input is vital. We'll…

Hi community, we appreciate this idea has collected a fair amount of votes and commentary. This has all been feedback and taken seriously by our product teams.
Currently, there are ways to record a bad debt in Xero, depending on your tax registration status and how you want the transactions to be recorded in your reports - We have help for this on Xero Central you can draw into.
We don’t have any plans in the near term to expand functionality to develop a button to write off invoices or bills as 'bad debt'. If anything changes in this space, we’ll update you on this idea!

I just noticed that this product idea was raised over 2 years ago and has only gathered 64 votes as of now, which is really surprising. I would have though all business would need a way to filter bills for payment planning.
As mentioned by others, being able to filter out suppliers that are on Direct Debit for example is really important; We've had suppliers accidentally paid twice because of this. Also, being able to group and filter suppliers that we want to pay by Credit Card, Amex and a whole bunch of other available payment methods would be a massive time saver and reduce the risk of them being paid by the wrong method (which can often result in higher costs or missing out on discounts etc).
This is another example of where it feels like Xero's developers don't really understand or listen to how real businesses operate and the tools and features that they really need, focusing instead on glossy changes to the user interface that don't really add value to the end user.

The ability to filter Bills for payment by contact group would be really helpful / time saving. In our case, we have a contact group set up for suppliers that will accept payment by Credit Card. It would be so helpful if we could filter by this group when doing our payment runs so we have a list on screen of just those bills we are going to pay by card.

Hi community, we acknowledge the strong feelings in this idea and why you need a feature to flag bills directly within Xero. We really appreciate all your feedback and the detailed explanations of how this would help streamline your accounts payable.
We are dedicated to providing a solution for this over the longer term, but this will take some time requiring changes that sit beneath the face of bills.
In lieu of a direct feature for this we wanted to highlight some of the options discussed by the community here:
- Add a note to the bill: A detailed note on the bill itself can serve as a clear internal reminder of the dispute.
- Utilise tracking categories: Creating a specific tracking category like "Disputed Bills" can help you filter and report on these items.
- Adjust the due date: Temporarily extending the due date can prevent accidental payment while the dispute is…

There should be a setting for each contact to turn on Automatic Remittance Notes, together with the choice of which email template to use. The current system is so clunky and time consuming when your doing a large payment run, with 3 or 4 clicks needed to send each remittance note.

There's another thread requesting this product idea: https://productideas.xero.com/forums/939198-for-small-businesses/suggestions/46322308-bills-to-pay-ability-to-filter-by-contact-group

As others have said over the years that this has been "In Development", it's a basic / fundamental accounting requirement that should have been included from the launch of Xero, and should have been at the top of the development priority list to add / put right. Instead, Xero continues to focus on adding glossy features that I suspect most users don't actually use or need (AI and analytics for example), and changing the user interface. Come on Xero, listen to your customers and put some effort and focus on getting this and other basic accounting features put right to make Xero more user friendly.
