    Hi community, thanks for continuing to support this idea and share the situations where it matters most to your business.

    We’re now rolling out backorders for tracked inventory, that enables you to keep selling and invoice customers even when you don’t currently have enough stock on hand.

    When this becomes available in your organisation, you’ll be able to approve a sales invoice for tracked items even where there isn’t enough available quantity to fully supply it. Xero will allocate any stock that's available straight away, place the remainder on backorder, and then automatically allocate incoming stock to those outstanding backorders as inventory increases.

    We’ll continue to monitor feedback as this rolls out more broadly, and I’ll return to share another update once the release is complete.

    90% of our business requires invoicing for parts prior to them being ordered for a customer due to the nature of the parts. This feature would be hugely beneficial to us. Hopefully xero implement it soon, we'd be happy to trial it for them

    This would be super beneficial for us, as we invoice for products, take payment then order from suppliers due to their niche nature.
