    Thanks for your expressions and feedback in a bulk download or print facility for Files (either from the Files library or at an individual transaction level)
    We know that bulk operations can be handy, however at this time we have no plans to develop this functionality. We know it might seem like a small feat, however often even small change is more tightly woven and intricate to solve beneath the surface.
    While we understand this must be frustrating to hear, we’re currently focused on making improvements in other areas of Xero and are unable to prioritise a bulk download or print feature right now.
    However, in situations like these there are often connected apps through the Xero App Store that may be able to assist. We appreciate and will revise solutions that could fulfil needs in this space, but want to be honest this isn’t something we have plans for…

    Hi All

    I have just asked the same question and received the same answer that files uploaded can not be bulk downloaded. Seems strange as the image must be somewhere on a data path. I am not that computer literate so will go with the explanation here.

    However Xero do seem to be putting anyone using the software, without a separate backup of an invoice, in breach of HMRC regulations "CH13400 - Record Keeping: How records may be preserved: Computer records" where we should be able to reproduce any document supporting a transaction.

    In addition there is a need to comply with proper accounting records with the Companies Act.

    Only really an issue if you move software as you will need to maintain the Xero record for at least 6 years or as noted in comment by Gemma the business is closed. My issue is slightly different as I need the link to be verified for a potential dispute

    Do Xero have any advise they can share with the community that will alleviate concerns regarding record keeping requirements under HMRC regulations and the Companies Act.

    In summary though it would have been very useful if I could have downloaded the pdf uploads to a particular supplier account in one go as I need these to support a complaint regarding historical issues, and the download would have given me the audit trail showing that they have been accurately reproduced from the software.

    It would make more sense for a warning message to be activated every time a payroll is processed where the relevant tick box is not checked. Should be simple!!
