What is the Bills page for?

Every purchase invoice and credit note in every Xero organisation of the group, on one list, as Xero holds it. Accounts use it to find a bill, see what is paid and what is still owed, review and approve a bill with a note Xero keeps, put a bill on hold, and tick the ones that go into a payment run. Nothing here is typed in from paper: a bill arrives through BillScan or in Xero itself and the sync brings it here. You enter: A search term, the filters (organisation, project, status, supplier, GL code, approver, period) and how the list is grouped — all kept in the page address, so a refresh or a shared link lands on the same view; A review decision on a bill — approve, or raise a query — with a note and, where it helps, a planned payment date; A tick on an approved bill with something outstanding, to add it to a payment run or put it on hold. Saral fills: The bills themselves: number, supplier, dates, status, total, paid and outstanding, project and organisation — read from each company's Xero organisation by the sync, never typed here; The four headline figures for the filtered list — total spend (after credit notes), paid, outstanding and the count overdue — and a dash, never a zero, when they could not be totalled; Days overdue on every unpaid bill, the hold badge on a held bill, the approval state and who gave it, and the chasing badge where a supplier has been emailing about it; The approval note and planned date written back to the bill's history in Xero once a bill is approved. It produces: A group-wide bill register with its CSV, PDF and emailed report, in the order and grouping on screen; Approved bills ready for a payment run, held bills kept out of one, and a review history on each bill. Where the settings live: Which Xero organisations are connected and when they sync is Settings → Xero Sync. Whether a hold is also marked on the bill in Xero is Accounts → Settings → Payments. Who may review a bill is the role's Site invoices permission; who may add to a run or hold is the Payment Runs permission. The column layout and saved views are yours alone, kept per person.
