   Hi everyone, a year on from my last engagement we wanted to provide an update for you all here.

   As many will be across we're in the midst of making a lot of iterations and improvements to new invoicing leading up to the retirement of classic invoicing in September (2024).

   We have a fair amount of work lined up in the teams schedule over the coming months and to give an indication there isn't any committed plans around a function to add interest to invoices.

   That said, we do have a team that have picked up and are considering how we might solve this with the technology in new invoicing - It's early days on this yet, but I'll share if there's any progress on this for you all here.

   In the meantime, as has been shared by others over time there are a few ways you could accomplish this today;

   • Include detail of any charges for late payments to your invoice template Payment terms & details, and
   • Edit and add a new line to your invoice to add the late fee - you could make use of Xero's inbuilt calculator for this, or
   • Edit and add a 'mark up' to each line of your invoice - again Xero's inbuilt calculator could help with calculating the amounts
   • Explore Xero's app store to see if you can find an integration that works for your business needs
   • In an effort to prevent late payment of invoices Credit limits may help in being able to prevent customers raising too much debt with your business

   We appreciate the options above don't automate the full process of what you're asking here, and we will share if there's any news. Thanks

   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 being resolved.
   • Update the reference to add a notation such as [reference number] - Do not pay
   • Adjust the planned date to be very far out in the future

   We know these options won't fit all needs here, and we are invested in continuing to develop Purchase and more specifically bills in Xero to suit your needs.

   We'll continue to provide updates with any progress that steps closer to enabling you to flag bills that are in dispute in Xero. Thank you for continuing to engage and share insights through this idea.

   Hi everyone, I'm pleased to share that we're moving forward with the ability to schedule the send of an invoice from Xero.

   We're in the early phase of releasing our new invoicing scheduler to customers, and appreciating the direct interest you've all shown here we've included everyone that's voted on this idea in our initial rollout!

   You'll see a tool tip on the invoice page for email scheduling, and be able to choose the right date/time when you go to email an invoice (from the send email dropdown). 😊

   We're really keen to hear your feedback.

   We appreciate there are asks within this idea for being able to schedule the send of other document type such as payslips and want to be upfront that this isn't in the roadmap at present. However, once our invoice scheduler is out to all, we'll be monitoring it's use closely and consider how this feature may be expanded to other features overtime.

   I'll be back to let you all know when the invoice scheduler is live to everyone.

   Adding my voice to the pile here - this seems like such a basic feature that so many people are crying out for. When the work is done, it would be fantastic to sort everything in Xero and know it's going to be sent like a scheduled email. Please please please, prioritise this. It would make such a big difference to my workflow.
