Practice Manager - Add a VAT Reconciliation report in the Reports section
Hi there, could Xero please add a VAT reconciliation report to the reports section where we can reconcile each VAT period's VAT payable/receivable to the VAT control account. This would make the VAT reviews and VAT reconciliations at year end so much easier and faster.

Xero Tax - Allow manual allocation of R&D expenditure for long accounting periods
When inputting R&D figures for a period of account longer than 12 months (i.e. where 2x corporation tax returns are needed), we are unable to put specific R&D expenditures in a specific corporation tax periods. This is an issue with overseas workers where the periods are pre and post 1 April 2024, and where expenditure is only eligible in one of the periods. As currently, the expenditure is pro-rated, this means that non-qualifying expenditure is being brought into one of the periods.
Is it possible to create a feature which allows for the expenditure to be split correctly between the…

XPM - Client group filter members
Please add a column or filter to the XPM Job Manager screen for client Groups. There is currently no column/filter for client group in the job manager screen in XPM - which means if you want to see all the jobs for a client group - e.g. Alf Barbagallo - have to search each entity individually. Also means cannot easily do a bulk update for all jobs in a client group.
1 vote✨ Appreciate you raising this, Julie! We understand how adding a client group filter to Job Manager would speed things up and cut the back-and-forth. In the meantime, a quick workaround: press Ctrl + F (Cmd + F on Mac) and type the client’s name into your browser’s search box to jump to matching entries on the page. Your idea is now in gaining support, so it’s open for votes and comments. If you can, please share it with colleagues who’d benefit—more support helps us gauge impact and prioritise what matters most.

Xero Tax - What if function
It would be very useful if Xero Tax have a What-If function to test different tax outcomes before finalising a return.
2 votesHi YiLing thanks for sharing this idea. Currently Xero allows the ability to use draft returns and the "Estimate" tab for basic scenario testing. For complex scenarios, it is recommended to use ATO calculators and compare results manually. We will move this idea to Gaining support and monitor for more traction from users.

New staff Experience - Ability to view staff certification in Staff tab
In the new HQ experience it'd be good to see staff's certifications without having to click into each of them individually
4 votesWe’ve updated the status of this idea to Gaining Support.
Currently, you can hover over a certification to view the expiry date, with colour indicators showing when a certification is close to expiring (yellow) or already expired (red). This idea suggests extending that functionality by including the certification type directly within the Staff tab.
If this change would improve how you work, we encourage you to vote or comment to show your support. Your input helps inform areas of focus for future improvements.

Reports - Aged Receivables - Filter by Account Code
To add to Receivable to search by account code so to know which clients have not paid e g membership invoices only
6 votesWe're grateful for your engagement and letting us know the changes that matter to you.
While there isn't a direct filter for account codes in Xero right now, you could potentially explore the option to use Contact groups or tracking categories to help sort clients in this report.
We'll keep an eye on the interest on this idea here, and let you know if there are any updates.

XPM Invoicing - Customisable default sort order on the invoice list.
We should be able to customise this invoice date order as a default setting, it opens in no order and having to click on the Due Date twice every time to get the invoices in order of latest to oldest to check before billing on every client is a real pain and waste of time when we have to do it so often.
We would appreciate you looking at making this a customisable setting very soon, thank you2 votesWe appreciate you sharing your valuable idea and identifying the changes that matter most to you.

JAX Auto reconcile bank rules only
It would be good to customise the new JAX auto bank reconcile feature. Eg reconcile bank rules only.
The clients that would benefit most from this new feature are the ones that have large volumes of unpaid items on the purchase or sales ledger so whilst it would be great to auto reconcile the rules I wouldn't want the AI "having a go" at matching bank transactions to open bills or invoices.1 voteThanks for submitting your idea on Xero Product Ideas.

Idea - Correct information on Payroll reports
Every time I process a payroll (hundreds every year), I produce the Payroll reports to send to the client.
The Payroll Activity Details Report AND THE Payroll Employee Summary shows the INCORRECT details in the heading. For example The report reads: "For the period 17 November 2025 to 17 November 2025". THIS IS NOT CORRECT, and it wastes HOURS having to change it every single time.
The Report is for the Processed Pay Period just completed!!!
Can we have this corrected to the pay period when this report is directly created from a payroll run??? the date for Example SHOULD…1 voteThanks for submitting your idea on Xero Product Ideas. We appreciate you taking time to let us know how we could improve Xero for you.

UK Tax - Ability to edit account headings on company accounts generated through blue Xero
It would be good to have the ability to amend account headings through the new company accounts via Xero blue. This could be linked to the reporting name or as an iXBRL heading. The main issue we are trying to address is including brackets around the word profit when there has been a disposal of a fixed asset (or loss if it is showing in the income section). just for clarity on the accounts.

Audit trail for jobs in XPM
There should be a comprehensive audit trail for jobs set up in XPM. In addition to the information about who created/modified details, individual time entries must show edited or moved details. We've had an instance where billable entries have been popping up into a client's job that should not have billable entries. What's scary is that these billable entries belong to various other clients who have no connection to the non-billable client. We cannot find who if anyone did move the entries and Xero does not have the ability to tell us either.

xero sign client
Xero sign in document packs - you currently need to manually input the client's details to add their signature for each document pack (for docs with no auto signing feature like tax returns).
It would be great if there was an option to simply select a client from XPM as all the details are already there (First name/Last name/Email)

Bring back the option to review and edit draft bills immediately after creating them from Purchase Orders
⭐Description:
In the previous version of Xero, after we clicked Copy PO → Bill, the system would first open the draft bill screen, allowing us to:
review the details
edit the invoice number
adjust line items if needed
and then submit the bill for approval
This workflow was very efficient, especially for businesses handling a high volume of purchase orders.
However, after the recent Xero update, when we use Copy PO → Bill, the system now:
immediately marks the PO as PO – Billed,
automatically creates the draft bill in the background,
and does not open the draft bill screen…

VAT - Ability to have 2 VAT Control Accounts - one for UK VAT and one for ROI VAT
Our client submits VAT returns in UK and in the Republic of Ireland - they have set up 13.5% and 23% ROI tax rates on Xero but the VAT on these transactions is posted to the normal 820 VAT liability along with all their UK VAT transactions.
Can a second VAT liability account not be set up for their ROI VAT and these tax rates linked to it, so as to keep the VAT for the returns in the two different areas separate?1 voteHi 👋 your idea is being looked into by our Community team.
