AU Tax - Xero Tax Trust Estimate For ALL Trust Types
We need a Trust Estimate to be included in Trust tax returns for ALL types of trusts. Xero recently added a trust estimate but it is for Deceased Estates Less Than 3 years only. This is not useful. This type of trust is a very small percentage of the trusts that our firm has.
We need the estimate to be able to calculate -
- Deceased Estates More Than 3 Years
- Discretionary Trusts where there are Foreign Beneficiaries
- Discretionary Trusts where there Minor Beneficiaries
- Discretionary Trusts where there is no beneficiary presently entitled33 votes -

AU Tax - Remove 0 in managed funds pre-fill from ATO
We have noticed an error, where, when managed fund distributions are prefilled from the ATO, a zero is put in the Item 24 - Other Income
This causes an error for each managed fund prefill that needs to be manually fixed by going in and deleting that entry in the schedule.
I just recently had a client with 15+ managed fund imports (owned jointly with his wife, so same issue on her side) which meant I had to waste quite a bit of time going into each schedule, only to delete the zero at the bottom.
If you could arrange…

AU Tax - Outstanding activity statement report
We want to be able to report on any clients with outstanding balances at any point in time, and be able to action it before the ATO start calling us or the client to chase the debt.
There is already a report on the ATO Portal – See attached screen shot. The report contains any AS’s that are overdue and also shows any clients debt/credit they may have on the ICA.
We also want to be able to safely ignore any and all statements of account that the ATO spam us with because often, they issue a statement of account…26 votes -
Xero Tax (UK) - Group and summarise accounts in statutory accounts
At present the expense headings in the detailed profit and loss account in Xero tax are imported from, and are therefore the same as, the expense headings in Xero. Often clients have more nominal accounts (for management purposes) than one would wish to see in the detailed profit and loss. An ability to combine two or more Xero nominal accounts into one expense heading figure in Xero tax would be very useful.

Xero Tax (UK) | Ability to switch between FRS 102 to FRS 105
Needed: an option button in Xero Tax which switches the Accounts between FRS 102 and FRS 105.
The majority of our Clients only require FRS105 Accounts to be submitted to Companies House but they all ask for FRS 102 Accounts to provide to their Bank or for applying for mortgages etc.
We also want them to sign FRS102 Accounts since they have much more disclosure and if Clients simply see the FRS105 version of Accounts, they question the fee we charge them for such a small output (not realising the amount of work behind preparing them).

Personal Tax (UK) | Spouse link to automatically update joint income
A link between spouses to automatically update joint income so as to avoid posting the same information on each return and reduce the time spent on each return
25 votesHey community - just popping back in to re-open this idea 😊
Our previous update confirmed this was possible for users in Australia, however the bulk of this group is based in the UK, where this feature is not available.
As such, we'll be shifting this back to 'Submitted' to continue to collect votes around this feature in a UK Tax context.
Thanks again to everyone that's shared their vote and added their commentary in the meantime!

AU Tax | ITR - Managed fund distribution worksheet - discount capital gain prefilled incorrectly
Re Managed fund distribution worksheet, the field 'Current year capital gains - Discount method (Grossed-up amount)' was prefilled incorrectly.
It's prefilled with net amount instead of the grossed-up one, results in validation error, need to manually edited it.
It could be great if xero can fix this, thanks :)
24 votesThanks for sharing your idea in the forums, team. We appreciate what you're asking and how this could currently be confusing. Our team are working on some improvement for the Distribution worksheet that'd allow you to select whether this field was filled as Gross, or Net amount. We'll keep you updated of the progress for this here. 🙂

Xero Tax | Return - Re-arrange/Re-sort Line Items
Would love to be able to re-arrange line items in Tax Returns as we have everything listed in alphabetical order. In HandiSoft, we could click and drag lines.
Example situation:
Shares in 2020
BOQ
CBA
WBCShares in 2021
ANZ
BOQ
CBA
WBCTo add in ANZ, we need to delete BOQ, CBA and WBC, add in ANZ and then re-add BOQ, CBA and WBC. Very time consuming if there are multiple lines to add.

AU Tax - Basic tax calculator/estimate
A quick individual tax calculator - just requires taxable income and PAYG to be entered - and the tax, offsets and medicare is auto calculated. Tick box for resident, tax free threshold and private health.
Handisoft has a tax calculator that does this - the estimated tax is calculated in 10 seconds. Much better and quicker than the ATO's calculators (and the ATO doesn't do current year - only prior).

NZ Tax - Add barcode/link to barcode in client tax letters
Following on from advice from IRD. Is this something that is easy enough to create?
See email from IRD.....
We are getting a number of customers to our Front of house (reception) who require a printed barcode to make their payment at Westpac. As you might expect, many of these customers are elderly and it has been some effort for them to go to Westpac only to find they need a barcode to pay so they come to see us… before heading back to Westpac with their printed barcode.
Most have, in the hot little old hands, a lovely letter…
21 votesAppreciate the meaning behind this idea to you all.
This is something we'd like to continue to track on the site here, however to upfront in order to generate the barcode there's work that'd need to be done on IRD's end to enable this.
We've reached out to engage them on this, but there is no immediate plans from our end, at this time.

AU Tax - Depreciation Schedules unlinked
Ability to have separate and unlinked depreciation schedules available in Xero Tax a still print a depreciation report would be very useful. At times there is no requirement to link a depreciation schedule to a particular area with the tax return (it may not be relevant for the current year however is required in future years) or the schedules relates to two areas within the tax return. I have circumstances where rental assets has differing ownership percentages which causes a nightmare using the current depreciation processes.
