Xero Tax (UK) - Expense tag for Loss on Disposal of Fixed Assets
Currently when selecting "Profit/(Loss) on disposal of fixed assets" as an iXBRL tag, it only works where there is a profit, and therefore whether it's a profit or a loss, it shows it as income in the P+L on the accounts.
Xero Support have suggested posting here to gather support for a "Loss on Disposal of fixed Asset" code that hits the Expenses categories, and changing the Income one to "Profit on Disposal of fixed asset".
Personally, on the basis that the existing code isn't flexible, I don't know why this isn't how it was set up originally.
Hopefully gathering…

Our product team have added a second tag for profit and loss on disposal to cater for whether that results in a profit or a loss separately. For a loss on disposal an expense tag can now be selected which will also present a loss on disposal within expenses.

UK Tax | CT600 - R&D tax repayments
R&D tax repayments
Currently with Xero Tax you can only request a credit towards the tax liability and not a cash repayment. Can Xero please amend this so that those that are amending CT submissions to claim R&D, can request to have the cash repayment rather than the reduction. it needs to be populated in CT600 box 865 (currently ).6 votesThanks for your contribution to this idea everyone, and apologies we've not updated you here sooner.
Although we don't support the CT600 box 865 we do support boxes 875, 880 and 885 which are automatically populated with the payable R&D, RDEC or Creative tax credit as applicable when the R&D schedule has been completed and the company is able to claim the repayment.
We added a lot of functionality to Xero Tax last year(2024) around R&D to stay on top of legislative changes, such as those in June 2024 to bring in Enhanced R&D Intensive Support (ERIS) and support the merged RDEC scheme.

Xero Tax (UK) - Sort and filter Dashboard
It would be helpful to be able to sort and filter the Xero Tax dashboard so you can, for example, only view the outstanding tax returns.
Currently, the order that clients are displayed is random - By tax year and alphabetically would be better
21 votesHey community, 👋 thanks for all your support on this idea, I'm popping in to switch it across to delivered! We have recently rolled out Tax Manager in the UK 🎉

UK Tax - Report foreign capital gains & losses for an individual
This is NOT an idea, more an omission from the product.
FOREIGN Capital Gains (foreign CGT ON STOCKS AND SHARES) Is not available in XERO TAX.Case Ref CX0013265560
"I am trying to report FOREIGN Capital Gains (foreign CGT ON STOCKS AND SHARES) in an individuals personal tax return. However am unable to find a schedule in XERO TAX that covers this. Please can you assist"3 votesHi Jag thanks for raising this with us - this was always on our roadmap to support, and I'm pleased to say that last week we released the ability to support foreign tax credit relief on capital gains.
To report a foreign gain/loss you just need to add it into the relevant type (we don't break the disposals down by whether they are foreign or not. Then, if you need to report foreign tax or SWT on this disposal, go to the "Foreign tax credit and SWT" section in the capital gains schedule to report this.

Xero Tax (UK) | CT600L - R&D Tax Credits
Xero apparently creates and submits a CT600L when R&D is included on a return. I say apparently because you can't download it/see it but support assure me it is there and that is the idea, - we should be able to download this for review and aproval by client.
5 votesHey Community 👋
Just following on from Paul's last update, this is now live!
Xero Tax now supports the production of the CT600L for RDEC claims going forward.
For more information on this, check out our 'What’s available in Xero Tax' article over on Xero Central.

Personal Tax (UK) | National Insurance Contributions
Automatic exemption of national insurance contributions for clients over state pension age. In many other accounts production softwares this is already automatic and is calculated from the date of birth. The more manual input there is, the more room for error and this is something that could easily be missed by someone who is used to automatic functions.
14 votesHi everyone, I'm pleased to update you all that this feature has now been released!
Now, if you enter a date of birth and the client has a trade, Personal Tax will automatically set Class 4 NIC to exempt where the client has turned state pension in the prior year. 🙂

Personal Tax (UK) | Add Box 53 CGT UK ITR
It's not currently possible to tick box 53 of the UK ITR CGT pages to state that the return contains a valuation - can this be added. Otherwise the software is not useable when you have a CGT disposal with a valuation or estimate
1 voteHey Wendy, 👋 thanks for raising this idea. I'm popping in to switch it across to delivered! We recently rolled out the ability to tick box 53 for NRCGT, so you will be able to do this going forward 🎉

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 votesHi team, apologies for not returning to this idea sooner. You'll find the Managed fund worksheet now has the ability to state whether the capital gains is reported as Gross or Net which will allow the Capital Gains Tax worksheets created to be correct.

Xero Tax (AU) - Distribution from Managed Funds worksheet for TRT
Many our trust clients have investments in managed funds, e.g. Macquarie Wrap, etc. Unlike ITR, currently there is no "Distributions from Managed Funds" worksheet in TRT. This means, we need to enter Capital Gains and Foreign Income in the separate sections from "Distributions from Partnership/Trust" worksheet. It would be great if all components from Managed Funds distributions can be entered into one worksheet.
76 votesHiya everyone, this is now possible with the introduction of the Trust Income Schedule that's been made available through Xero Tax in Australia!
You'll find if a trust or beneficiary relationship has been set up in the client’s screen, these distributions save automatically from the trust return into the receiving return’s Trust Income Schedule - Read more on our changes through Xero Central.

AU Tax - Tax Return states/status for HOLD
In the tax return tab we have the ability to have HOLD as a state/status so that they don't sit in complete or file.
8 votesHi team, coming back across this idea here we have the option of being able to suspend a return. See more detail on how you can do this in our Xero central article. 🙂

AU Tax | Company Tax Return - Partnership & Trust Distribution Worksheet
It would be good to have a version of the "Partnership and trust" worksheet from the individual tax return in the CTR as well. This would make it significantly easier to enter the correct amounts at 6D and 6E.
Having the appropriate amounts entered in the worksheet flow through to the capital gains schedule and the franking credits section of the calculation statement would also be advantageous as it would remove a lot of manual work associated with these items.
39 votesHey team, we've recently introduced the Trust Income Schedule in Xero Tax(AU). With the Trust Income Schedule if a trust or beneficiary relationship has been set up in the client’s screen, these distributions save automatically from the trust return into the receiving return’s Trust Income Schedule - You can find out more on these changes on Xero Central.

Xero Tax(NZ) - Unapprove tax payment letters in bulk
Tax Payments – It would be good if we could have a BULK unapproved feature in all tabs, i.e. approved, sent, ignore.
At the moment we have to click on each client and unapproved which is very time consuming.
5 votesHey community, thanks for sharing this idea - it’s now live in NZ Xero Tax 🎉
You can now unapprove multiple payment reminders at once. To do this:
- Go to Tax > Payments

- Click the Unapprove button
- Click Yes to confirm
Thanks again for all the feedback around this idea! If there's further improvements you'd like to see in Xero Tax, be sure to share them with our team here on Product Ideas.
