We are in the process of changing to Sage Accounting due to not being able to track inventory across multiple locations. With no clear answer from Xero on when this functionality will be available in South Africa, we are forced to make the change. We would much rather stay with Xero, but as a business we cannot wait for something that might not even happen

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.

Hi Kevin, with this information available in a few reports atm there aren't any plans to add contact to the Latest transactions section when viewing a Product or services in Xero.
You could run the Inventory Item Details, or Receivable/Payable Invoice Detail reports, to see the transactions and contacts for an item.

Hi Kirstie
Thanks for sharing this idea about setting future prices for inventory items.
It's now up to the community to get behind and support your idea. Other members can now add their votes and comments about how this could also benefit them.
In the meantime, you'd need to edit the price at the relevant date, either manually or by exporting and importing your items if you need to update lots of prices at the same time.

Thanks for your feedback, Sue. Not something we have immediate changes for but we'll begin to get a sense of the interest from your idea here.

Hi, thanks for sharing this idea about setting the opening stock for a tracked item at the same time you add it.
Now it's up to the community to get behind and support your idea with their votes and comments about how this would help them, too.
As for how this is currently done, as well as setting the item's starting Quantity on Hand, there needs to be an accounting record for where the existing Value comes from.
The current process is to add the item(s) as Tracked and then either:
- Importing the opening balances for your tracked items. *This option is only for when you first start using Tracked Inventory in your organisation*.
- Entering an approving a Supplier Bill to record the first purchase of the item.
- Entering an Adjustment (Increase Quantity-type) to move the value from another account (the adjustment account) to the Inventory Asset Account.

Hi everyone, thanks sharing how important it is to be able to reserve inventory for pre-sales, or consignment.
We appreciate hearing your needs in setting stock aside before it’s invoiced, and in some cases working across multiple locations or warehouse setups.
We are currently in the process of releasing backorders capability which is designed to help tracked inventory users approve a sales invoice even when there isn’t enough stock available at the time. When that happens, the stock you do have available is allocated first, and the remaining quantity is placed on backorder. As more stock comes in, Xero will then automatically allocate it to the oldest approved backorders.
While this release doesn’t provide a way to reserve stock in advance for consignment, pre-orders, or particular customers and locations, it may still help some businesses that are currently needing to wait for stock to arrive before they can approve and…

Stock transfers will be great, we have multiple warehouses/stock locations, and it would be great to be able to transfer stock to consignment accounts or different locations.

Hi Belinda,
Any idea when multiple stock locations will be available?
