XPM - Client list rental property report
Generate XPM report to list clients with Rental Properties.

XPM - Bulk Import of Recurring Jobs
The ability to bulk upload/import Recurring Jobs via .csv file, in the same way you can Bulk Import Jobs that are not recurring.
This allows for each row to have the copy/paste capacity for overlapping criteria and can be quickly created through a spreadsheet (which could stem from an Export of your client list to 'schedule' your job creation throughout the year).
One import for an entire client base would be considerably more streamlined and efficient.

XPM - Generate new client record via ATO Pre-fill Data
In many accounting software platforms, the established workflow for onboarding a new individual client and preparing their Income Tax Return leverages ATO pre-fill data efficiently.
This process typically involves:
- Adding the new client to the ATO portal.
- Downloading the pre-fill XML file directly from the ATO portal.
- Saving the downloaded XML file to a local directory.
- Commencing a new ITR within the software by importing this ATO pre-fill file. This crucial step often includes the ability to search for the new client by surname, create a necessary client reference and automatically populate the return with all available ATO data, thereby…

XPM - Show Client Managers and Job Managers on main recurring job screen
Would like to have the ability to see both client managers and job managers on the main recurring job list screen, along with the ability to export this list.
1 voteHi Geena, thanks for this great suggestion for Xero Practice Manager.
We can definitely see how having both the Client Manager and Job Manager visible on the main recurring jobs screen would make it much easier to see who is responsible for what at a glance. Adding an export option for that screen is also a great point.
We're grateful for your engagement and for letting us know the changes that matter to you.

XPM - Reassign client in bulk
Would love the ability to efficiently reassign clients in bulk within XPM, using tickboxes (like in the jobs list) to select the relevant clients and reassign to a new accountant. The import/export feature is clunky and often errors on import. A quick and easy way to complete this function would improve client experience when a new accountant joins the firm.

Practice Manager - Report on client bank details inc fields BSB, Account number, Account name.
Would be great to create a report in XPM that shows client bank details so we can identify clients that are missing bank details and need to be followed up. This would also avoid the issue with tax returns being lodged with no bank details recorded.

Practice Manager - A list of naming conventions for importing
It would be a good to have a full list of naming conventions so you can import client job etc data in bulk, without having to "guess" the title name.

Practice Manager - Ability to add additional time entries to a draft bill
Create the ability to update time entries for draft bills.
We often have a manager draft the bill and between the bill being created and it being approved by a director, there is additional time added to the job. If there was an option to refresh the bill to include all time before approval, rather than having to delete the bill and start again, that would be amazing!1 vote -
XPM | Clients - Sync updates for joint bank account details
Joint bank accounts need to be listed in the financial institution details of both parties in XPM. It would be great to have them linked so only one client needs to be updated and the changes flow to the other client, and into the tax returns for both

Practice Manager - Searchable drop down menus
When entering time or selecting a job on a bill for example, it would be more efficient to be able to search the drop down menu of clients, rather than having to enter the first letter then scroll (especially the 'M's where there are so many Mr, Mrs, Ms and Miss clients!)

Practice Manager - Add documents to Management Reports from outside Xero
Management Reports: I would like to add reports created outside of Xero in my published Management Report packet that I send to clients. There should be a way to upload a PDF or excel document to the Management Report Packet from outside Xero

XPM - Bill multiple clients in a group from the client group
Provide an option under the client group to bill wip that's under multiple clients in the group with one invoice.
At the moment it appears this can only be done under Invoices in the Business menu. Under the client group itself, while an invoice can be created for multiple jobs for one client, you can't create a single invoice to bill wip that's under multiple clients in the group.

Practice Manager | Clients - Ability to edit individual Date of birth
Currently you cannot edit the DOB in a client record in XPM for individual clients you can only edit if you export the database and re import it. For GDPR reasons it is important that we can delete DOB when a client leaves the practice. Please make this field so it can be deleted if required

Practice Manager | Jobs - Warning when completing/closing job with active tax return
Job with live Tax Record – it would be good to receive a warning when completing (or cancelled) a job that has a live tax filing

XPM Budget Field - Only available if Staff have Access Financial Data permissions
The job budget is a key piece of information for all staff to have visibility. However the Budget field on a job is only visible if staff have Access Financial Data permissions. Giving Access Financial Data permissions allows staff to view and edit client billing details, edit practice subscription and export subscription. Surely, such wide ranging powers is not appropriate for ALL staff.
Surely this permission should fall under the "Manage Jobs" permission matrix not under Finances permission matrix.

XPM - Notification of draft invoices
It would be great if there was some automatic notification to the client/job manager that a draft invoice has been raised and is awaiting approval.
Probably just one email per day so they are not being spammed!

XPM - Time cost per entry when reviewing task postings
When invoicing in XPM and choosing the task postings options Yes/No/Future, can you add a column for the cost (not just time and rate) so we can judge what to invoice and how much for.
1 voteHi Emily, thanks for sharing this fantastic suggestion for improving the invoicing workflow in XPM. We can see how having more direct visibility of costs would make billing decisions much easier.
We've reviewed your idea to add a calculated 'Cost' column on the screen when reviewing task postings to be invoiced. We understand this would help you better judge what to invoice and how much for at a glance.
Your suggestion is now ready to gain support and feedback from others in the community. Along with votes, other users can now share how having this cost visibility would impact their own billing and WIP management processes.

XPM - More user friendly client & date selection
When running reports, posting timesheets etc, it would be good for the client search function to search the entire name, rather than requiring exact input. Similarly, the ability to type a date in any format (e.g. DD/MM/YY), rather than being exact or using the calendar icon.
1 voteHi Emily, thanks for sharing this feedback on how we can make everyday tasks in XPM more user-friendly. We know that improvements to common fields like search and date entry can make a big difference to overall efficiency.
We've reviewed your suggestions for making the client search function more flexible so it searches the entire name, and for allowing dates to be typed in various formats. We can see how these changes would streamline tasks like running reports and posting timesheets.
Your idea is now ready to gain support and feedback from other members of our practice community. Along with votes, others can now share how these kinds of usability improvements to client search and date selection would help streamline their own daily workflows.

Practice Manager | Jobs - Ability to change information sections
Would it be possible to close sections of the job that you don't use and these stay as default. (Information Tax - job details, custom fields etc.) This would make it easier to see the sections you do use. It would also be useful if you would put them in the order you prefer.
For example to me the most important section is tasks and these are quite low down the list. I would like this to be a default setting.
1 voteThanks for the idea, Sally. We'll keep an eye on the interest for this here and let you know if there are any changes planned around this.
