Hi community, we appreciate everyone's engagement here. To confirm we have intentions of developing the purchase order experience, however developing Projects into this does have some complexities and requires work across both purchase orders and projects to deliver.
Right now our initial focus is releasing the new purchase order experience to all users.
While we don't have a timeframe for assigning PO's to Projects at this stage, this is top of our product teams radar and we'll communicate here as soon as there's an update.

Please add the "ASSIGN EXPENSES TO A CUSTOMER OR PROJECT" button to the Purchase Order front page / menu. I want the costs allocated to the project at the point of raising a PO to reflect real time expenditure and enable up to date project cost analysis.

Hi Tristan, thanks for sharing such a detailed and well-thought-out suggestion. We appreciate you taking the time to explain the specific accounting impact and how this would improve financial visibility.
We've reviewed your idea for having approved Purchase Orders post to the general ledger and integrate with Xero Projects. This suggestion is now ready to gain support and feedback from other community members.
Along with votes, others can now comment on how having this visibility of committed costs could improve their own project management and financial forecasting in Xero. 🙂

This is vital because there is a large gap between the raising of a PO, at which time the business has a financial commitment, and the billing, which can be many weeks. During that time currently, Xero cannot tell me how much cost I have committed to on new jobs that have been commenced or projects that are in quote stage.
