Extension of ‘classic’ invoicing to 27 Feb 2025
Xero has announced an update to its invoicing system: the classic invoicing product, initially set to retire, will now remain available until 27 February 2025 to allow a smoother transition to the new invoicing platform.
Registering for e-invoicing does not mean you automatically have to send e-invoices. Sending e-invoices is a choice you make for each invoice.
Useful points for Xero users:
- Tip: If you have Dext connected to your Xero file, it’s worth holding off on registering for e-invoicing as the two are currently incompatible (if you get stuck, contact Omnis Group’s team and we can sort you out)
- Bug: If you’re not registered for e-invoicing but another Xero user else is and sends you an e-invoice, you won’t receive it and there is currently no way to locate or recover it from the interweb
- Transition Support: A dedicated education hub is available to guide users through the new workflows, ensuring an easier adjustment to the updated system
- Resources & Updates: The new invoicing hub on Xero Central provides the latest information and tools to help users stay updated.
To date, over 30 updates have been delivered to the new invoicing system, integrating many features from the classic version and incorporating user feedback.
