# Saving Invoices as Drafts

Would love to be able to save an invoice as a draft instead of having to charge the client from the start of setup. Currently, you have to charge the person immediately when creating a new invoice. We have clients that have agreed upon milestones for projects and I would love for my team to be able…

# Still really need some improvements with the messages

The new updates are really great. A few features that would still be very helpful to have. With the added, side panel in the messages, there still isn’t a great way to easily access the app content associated with each pr…

# Templates in the messages

I may have mentioned this in a previous post, but having the option to save templated messages would be huge. We send out the same formatted messages to 10+ clients every single day and it is a lot of copy and pasting or typing out. We have about 5 different ty…

# Adding media and formatting to forms

I really need the ability to format the descriptions in form questions to include bold, hyperlinks, etc. Include images either in the responses (most helpful) or in the descriptions at the very least of a question. Unfortunately, stuck using Google Forms until this is added also a question…

# Difficult to navigate

One of the things I'm noticing as we add clients is that it can be pretty difficult to navigate at times. While I love the simplicity of Assembly there is a lack of “connectedness” between the different areas. One of these is simply being able to quickly access…

# Integration with Front.com

An integration with [Front.com](http://front.com/) would be very helpful to help better manage client communications. We communicate across a few different channels with clients and while ideally everyone would communicate through Assembly, it is not feasible. Beyond that there is just limited ability to tag messages w…

# Card Storage Request

I know that the subscriptions will store the card, but I really need cards to be stored for regular invoices as well. When sending deposits (using the % workaround since there is no actual deposit option), clients will make the payment before starting the work. Unfortunately, right now I have no wa…

# Message Formatting & Read Times

Another thing that would be very beneficial to have in messages is formatting.  
- Bold  
- Italics  
- Bullet points  
- Numbering  
- Hyperlinking

It also would be very beneficial to know the time/date at which the message was ready by the client.

# Modifications in the Tasks App

A few things that would be very helpful here:  
- Ability to name stages differently from To Do, In Progress, Done  
- Ability to add/remove number of stages  
- Ability to assign clients and internal team members to the same tasks  
- Ability to restrict clients from viewing it from a list/board view

# Start Recurring Date on First Payment - Subscriptions

I really need an option to have the billing start on the date of payment. Some people may take a few days to pay. It’s a small detail but keeps the client aware of billing dates and doesn’t make them pay for less time for that initial month.

# Text Integration

It would be very nice to add in text integration for updates with clients. If it could work similar to the email notifications where a user can respond directly to it and it add to the messages that would be super beneficial. Additionally with this, if there was some sort of tag on messages that ca…

# When opening Messages

I know this seems like a small request, but it would be very nice if clicking the “messages” tab did not open up the first message. When receiving a lot of client responses, this can make it easier to miss messages since one may be opened and not responded to even though it will be marked as read.

# Several Features I'm Curious About

There are several things that I feel like are necessary for this to work long term for my agency, and I would love to get an idea on if any of these are coming in the near future.  
Ability to turn off “Read Receipts” in the messages from my side. I would like to know when clients are viewing things…

# Feature Request: Billing visibility (app visibility overall)

I really need this for my agency as well. We started using Assembly this year and I assumed this was an obvious feature to have. Any exact timeline expectations on this? I would like to stick with Assembly, but it is unfortunately a must have.

# Draft Invoices, Discounts (% or $), sales tax per item

It would be very helpful to have the discounts. Also I can't find any way to require a deposit for an invoice? Am I missing that somewhere? If not, that would be a very useful tool.
