Users: Remove user access without cancelling user's repeating invoices
If a staff member leaves, you would usually delete them as a user. That causes issues, however, if they have set up recurring invoices. These will be left as draft and will not be sent. It would be useful if you could keepa staff member but remove the access so that they can't log in themselves anymore, almost making them inactive?
It is not as simple as resetting their password because of the 2 step authentication.3 votes -
Workpapers | Settings - Tax and depreciation default to last saved setting
Hi there
Just a suggestion.
I wonder if we can please make the depreciation and tax depreciation report setting to automatically default to the last saved setting instead of having to save it as default report and without saving it into drafts? Similar to Wrike workflow product.
Thanks

Xero HQ: Manage user access for organisations with external subscriber
My Xero - Managing staff access to clients
I suppose we have a large-ish accountancy - in My Xero I get a full list of all clients I get access to; that's 25 pages of clients at 50 clients per page. I see all clients irrespective of whether the subscriber is internal (within our accountancy) or external (the client).
We need to add a new admin staff member and give them “Manage users” + “Payroll admin” to all entities. In My Xero, I drill down into the Staff list, click on the new user and it says I have access…

Xero Tax (AU) - Colour code variances
Currently all ITR Notices of Assessment that come to Xero Tax with a variance are marked with an orange dollar sign ($).
It would help with variance investigation and client contact if the variances were colour coded so that positive variances (those that increase a refund or decrease a payable) are in a blue $, while negative variances (those that decrease a refund or increase a payable) are in the orange $. I would suggest green, but green is often used for 'this has been assessed and confirmed' so blue is a good compromise.
This will give a visual indication…

XPM - Ability to change to-do list
Many of the to-do items under tasks aren't useful or applicable to us. We would love the ability to add meaningful to-do items to our tasks as a default, not on a job by job basis.

It would be great if there was an 'Other' category tagging option under PPE.

Add changelogs to Xero Central Support pages where the product changes
Things like tax returns change fairly frequently. Not all new features are entirely self-explanatory. Xero Support's Articles are simple and aimed at giving new users basic information, but often lack the detail to be used as an ongoing resource.
I'd suggest adding changelogs to Xero Central Support pages/articles for existing products that have been updated.
For example the IR6 tax return has changed in the 2025 year to match tax law. Estates are still able to use the 33% tax rate in their first 4 years, but the return defaults to the 39% rate.
Existing users will review the Tax…

AU Tax - Automatic filing
Why can't Xero automatically file signed returns once the client has signed the document? Should be a fairly simple update for Xero to manage automatic filing instead of a person having to tick all and click file. Has this ever been considered? Knowing the suspend date is used to hold back a lodgement.
2 votesWe understand you are interested in a return filing automatically with ATO once your client has signed the return.For now, the process remains that a partner needs to click 'File' in Xero Tax after the client has completed their e-signature. This is because the client-signing process happens through a Portal and not in Xero Tax,, and the final action of lodging the return is designed to be a deliberate, conscious step taken by the practice. We have no immediate plans to change this workflow. The current separation of the signing and filing steps is an intentional part of our design, ensuring the final lodgment is a secure and authorised action from the tax agent.

New Tab for All NON Lodged in Xero Tax
Xero Tax should have another Tab to View ALL NON Lodged.
Right now you have to go to Draft, Completed, Approved, To Sign, To File - that's 5 tabs to see which returns and BAS are not yet lodged. All tab includes Filed. There needs to be a tab where you can view All Non Lodged excluding Filed.2 votesHi 👋 your idea is being looked into by our Community team.

Xero Tax (AU) - automatically add the ABN from the client record to P5 of the individual tax return
Any taxpayer can only have one ABN.
Why does Xero leave P5 blank when it could put the ABN (which is already in the client record) into P5 for me?
If you're worried about there sometimes being an ABN in the client record but there being no business that year and it needing to be blank.. then make it work the same as when I rollover from a prior period - last year's fields are rolled over but I can delete them if need be.
Same thing here - when I create the tax return, either:
- roll-over from the…2 votesHi 👋 your idea is being looked into by our Community team. We will be in touch soon to update you once your idea has been reviewed.

Xero Tax - set default print settings for your practice
It would be great to be able to set default print settings for the practice, especially by tax return type. Recently Xero changed the default and now I have an extra box to untick each time. Pain in the backside. Thanks

Xero Tax (AU) - Warning to complete 13U tax losses and losses schedule
It would be beneficial for a warning to show to complete label 13U tax losses to be carried forward and/or when a losses schedule is required in a Trust or Company tax return when there has been a tax loss for the current year. This would reduce the risk that this label is inadvertently omitted.

Xero Tax fields in XPM to be importable and extended to UTRs for business tax clients.
Within XPM there are fields for individuals in the Tax section of Client with UTR and National Insurance number. It is not possible to import and upload to them, this would be useful as they then link to Xero Tax when filing a tax return. Currently we have them stored in a custom field as these weren't available originally. It would be good to be able to import all of our custom fields to the system's UTR and NINO fields.
There is also not a Tax section on Limited Company clients to add a UTR to. Companies need UTRs and…
2 votesHi Stewart, thanks for raising this idea. It’s clear that the ability to import Unique Taxpayer References (UTR) and National Insurance Numbers (NINO) is important to you, and we hear the pain points about the extra manual work involved in not having this feature. A possible workaround is using a custom field for now, which can help keep this data within Xero Practice Manager. ⭐I wanted to provide an update on this. At Xerocon, we announced new developments for Xero Practice Manager and Xero HQ that are designed to improve efficiency and help you manage clients more effectively. While I can't promise a specific timeline or confirm that this exact feature will be included, we believe these enhancements will help streamline many of the workflows you’ve highlighted. We'll be sure to provide another update as soon as we have more information. Thank you for your patience and for helping us…

Request to Enable Proposal and Estimate Sync from XPM to Xero Accounting
I’m reaching out to request assistance regarding a feature enhancement for Xero Practice Manager (XPM). Currently, XPM allows invoices to be pushed seamlessly to Xero Accounting (blue), which is incredibly helpful. However, I’ve noticed that proposals and estimates created in XPM cannot be pushed to Xero Accounting in the same way.
I would like to request that XPM be enhanced to support the ability to push proposals and estimates directly to Xero Accounting. This functionality would allow clients to take advantage of Xero blue’s interactive features—particularly the ability for clients to simply click a button to mark a proposal as…
2 votesAppreciate you attaching a screenshot to demonstrate your flow here, Badi. Just wanted to check as this is a public forum there's nothing sensitive in this that you wouldn't want others to see?
Can understand why you'd like to enhance the sync of information and save time in adding these manually in Xero blue.
Not something we have immediate plans of but we'll start collecting community interest for this through your idea and update if there are any plans made.
