    Thanks for raising this so clearly, Monica 🙂.

    We understand the behaviour you’re describing: when a bill created from a purchase order is later edited, voided, or deleted, the billed quantities on the purchase order don’t reset, which can leave the PO out of sync with what’s actually been received and billed.

    We’re making this idea available for others to vote on and comment on, which helps build a clearer picture of the level of support for this improvement.

    The current set-up is very poor functionality - a black mark against Xero. Because - it contradicts the logic which should apply to all software. Logic says if you make a change (raise a bill) and then delete that action, then deleting the change should return the situation back to what it was before you made the change (raised the bill). Yet Xero doesn't apply this logic. You delete the change (delete the bill) but the change remains in place on the PO. That's not just poor. It's illogical.
    This shouldn't be classed as an 'idea'. It should be classed as a 'correction' to poorly written software.
