Bulk change on approving invoices
This is not a new idea but feedback on a recent Xero update which affected my invoicing.
I operate a business with approximately 80 weekly repeating invoice templates.
My workflow has always been to have repeating invoices created as Approved so I can review them before emailing customers. This is important because I manually add each new week date in the template email.
Following a recent update, my templates are now set to Approve for Sending, requiring me to manually edit every repeating invoice individually.
There is currently no bulk action to change the approval status of existing repeating invoice templates.
Please add the ability to bulk edit repeating invoice settings, including:
- Approval status (Draft / Approved / Approve for Sending)
- Email automation settings
I am the only one using this account and the only one sending all invoices. I did not individually change each and every invoice to "Approve for Sending" (to my detriment) - so it must have been as a result of a Xero update. PLEASE DON'T DO THIS AGAIN!!
It took me 30 minutes late on a Sunday night to correct each invoice individually before the invoices would have been sent shortly after 12am on the Monday!
Thank you

Businesses with large numbers of repeating invoices can spend hours making simple administrative changes that should take seconds.
This would significantly improve efficiency for users managing recurring customer invoices.
