There's multiple topics already going for this.
Although 20 invoices and 5 bills may be fine for most months, there are months where you don't raise this qty and other months where these quantities simply aren't enough.
I don't need payroll but this is included. I don't want to have to pay extra for the next tier for the occasional month I'd be over this quota as the price jump is just way too much.
Even being able to purchase credits to add additional invoices or bills for a month would be more cost effective than stepping up to the next plan, which also gives more payroll capacity that I don't need.
I know there is not always the perfect product that gives everything you need and nothing you don't need, but I also know there's quite a number of other people that have raised this point so perhaps if Xero listen and either provide an annual quota or a credit system, perhaps it will be a better fit for more people.
This has my vote, and I highly suggest looking through the list and voting for other posts that request the same or similar feature.David Raymer

Will also prevent pricing reviews during the year so the price is locked for 12 months.

Thanks for your interest and sharing how improvements to Xero Inventory could enhance your experience using Xero.
Tracking of inventory for manufacturing isn't something we have direct plans of right now, however as you may have seen from my update on this idea we have started exploring development for bundling of inventory in Xero.
At this point, our product team have some early concepts and they'd like to engage our community for feedback on these.
Knowing your interests here, we'd like to invite you to share back on the teams work for bundling inventory. If you'd be able to give some of your time, please fill in this short form.
Depending on interest we may not be able to involve everyone, however we'll come back to share any further progress of this with you here.

I'm only just making the move over to Xero from MYOB and I can't believe Xero doesn't have this. At present, this topis has 89 votes, but there's also other topics for this same ability, but each of these has the same response that it is not something Xero are planning to do at this stage.
There's plenty of 3rd party apps that can do this, and Xero does make a good core product with it's integration, but adding 3rd party apps opens up a whole list of choices and extra cost, but the price of Xero itself should reflect this, but unfortunately it doesn't... especially if you have to add a 3rd party app for a feature that really should be already integrated into Xero.I'm going through and placing my vote in all the similar topics to this that I can find in the hope that Xero might actually take note and even consider integrating into the core software, otherwise I'm just wasting my time bringing my data into Xero and should be looking elsewhere. Odoo can do this and more and is actually reasonably priced. MYOB can do it, end Quickbooks. Which is better value for money???

Hi everyone, thank you for all your valuable insights of how we could improve Xero inventory to suit your business.
Atm, we don't have direct plans for providing capability to track assembly inventory within Xero, however our product team are doing some early testing of concepts for being able to bundle inventory in Xero.
Quite related to your interests here, we wanted to provide you the opportunity to be a part of this,
If you'd be interested in giving some time to share back with our team on their concepts please answer a few questions through our form here.✍️
This will be a limited pool, however we'll be back to share outcomes of this work with you all here.

I have my own trophy shop that I run on the side. I'm just moving over from MYOB to Xero and need to be able to have a way of adding tracked items to another item during a sale.
Even if it doesn't have the ability to generate a BOM as that would also require a jobs module, but I'd like to be able to combine 2 or more items used to prooduce a final item.
At the very least, being able to add sub-items in the invoicing screen that don't need to appear on the invoice, but at least reflect them as being taken out of stock.
The only way to do this would be through a 3rd party app, but this just adds to the cost of the software.
The reason for moving to Xero in the first place was due to its ability to integrate with many more apps then MYOB, but the simplicity of the software and the dependance on 3rd party apps isn't reflected in the price of Xero. This is me questioning if a move to Xero is actually really worth the time and effort.
It is also so much slower to call up items in the inventory, but that's another issue i'm dealing with.David Raymer

Totally agree. I'm moving from MYOB to Xero due to the ability to integrate with more apps. This move already means I have to sacrifice the capability of inventory, but as I run the business on the side, there are times where I would be slightly over this quota, but other times when it would be fine.
Why not have a credit system where unused invoice or purchase orders from a slow month could be utilised in busier months or additional credits purchased if required?
As I also need to factor in a 3rd party app to get the features I require as Xero is too simplistic, stepping up to the next plan is too expensive.
This limit is way too small and certainly a critical issue for making the decision to move to Xero or stay with MYOB as it would place me in the next tier for potentially needing to create a few additional transactions per year.
Looking at my average, I think 25-30 invoices and 7-8 purchase orders would be ample, but 20 and 5 is just too small.David Raymer

Thanks everyone for your feedback on the invoice print option. We know how much our customers value efficient workflows, and appreciate you sharing your thoughts on how the current "Print PDF" button works.
For those of you looking for a smoother printing experience, a helpful workaround is to set your browser to automatically open PDFs in your preferred viewer after downloading. This can save you a few clicks in the process.
In the interest of transparency, a direct print PDF functionality that go through the download step isn't in our development plans.
You can continue to vote on this idea so if our position changes in the future we will update you all, here.

Some items can be accidentally created due to a single character. There are other systems than merge items so certainly a possibility to be able to do this with some coding.
Should be standard to be able to keep inventory lists clean without having to deactivate items and make manual adjustments.David Raymer

Most other packages offer this feature in one way or another. It helps to identify individual items that could be similar.
I understand it increases the size of the database and would require additional storage space, but I have to rely on 3rd party packages for this feature.David Raymer

I am moving across to Xero from MYOB where I've also been using a 3rd party software that does have this ablility and it makes it so much easier as you can have a single items instead of having to create multiple items for different suppliers and then try to keep up with stock balances.
In my case, I supply trophies so i could get a simple ribbon for a medal from 5 different suppliers. Through the 3rd party app, I can consolidate this to different suppliers with their part numbers and pricing. Upon placing the order, it will automatically apply the details for that particular supplier, but it will add it to the stock level and sell price for the single unit.
I have just stopped using the 3rd party package due to other reasons, but now looking for another package with similar ability.
Although MYOB's inventory is better than Xero's, it doesn't offer this feature neither so the only solution is 3rd party apps.David Raymer

Many different posts about this. Certainly needs to be addressed as the jump to the next level is just too costly.
Ideas tabled are either the ability to purchase additional bills or invoices for the months when required, or even having an annual amount as there are months where the quota isn't reached.
