AU Tax - Bulk selection and status updates
Returns Management User Interface (UI) - "All" Tab Improvements/Customization
To improve handling returns by adding bulk selection and status update functionalities on the "All" tab of the Returns Management interface. Also, suggesting having a customizable UI to best fit our workflow preference.
Key Features:
Action Buttons
- Located in the table header, these buttons perform bulk actions such as "Approved", "Out to Sign", and "Sign". They remain disabled unless one or more return items are selected.
Checkbox
- Each return item has an associated checkbox to allow selection. By default, these checkboxes are unchecked.
Select All / Deselect All
- A master checkbox located in the table header allows users to quickly select or deselect all visible checkboxes at once.
Persistent Selection
- Items that are selected remain selected even when filters or search queries are applied. This ensures that selection is not lost when the view changes.
Selection Summary
- A dynamic display showing the number of selected returns, for example: “5 returns selected”. This updates in real time as users select or deselect items.
Confirmation & Undo
- Before any bulk action is executed, a confirmation prompt appears to prevent accidental changes. Optionally, users may be provided an undo option to revert recent actions.
Customizable UI
- Users have control over which columns are visible and the order in which they appear. This is managed through drag-and-drop functionality or by checking/unchecking column options.

I think it would be good to get the option to reconcile the ledger accounts like Prepayments and Accruals. We can mark the transactions and the corresponding reversals as cleared. So we can quickly create a schedule by filtering the uncleared transactions.
Xero should think of providing this clearing feature which is available in QBO
