Hide Chart of Accounts codes in imported descriptions for Xero Tax returns
When data is imported from Xero HQ or a client’s Xero ledger into Xero Tax, the system automatically appends the Chart of Accounts code to the account name e.g. “Sales (400), even when the underlying Chart of Accounts name field does not contain the code.
While this improves traceability, it creates unnecessary clutter in the tax return view and workpapers, especially where codes are not relevant for presentation to clients.
Users also cannot rename or hide the codes within the Xero Tax interface.
I request that a feature be included where you can add an option (checkbox or setting) within Xero Tax to import descriptions without account codes.
