Xero tax - Separate 'Client To Sign' & 'Tax Agent to Sign' lists
The current 'To Sign' list is a combination of tax returns that might be out for signature with the client, or ready for the tax agent to sign. At the moment there is no way for our tax agents to tell which tax returns are ready for them to sign.

AU Tax - Xero Tax Trust Estimate For ALL Trust Types
We need a Trust Estimate to be included in Trust tax returns for ALL types of trusts. Xero recently added a trust estimate but it is for Deceased Estates Less Than 3 years only. This is not useful. This type of trust is a very small percentage of the trusts that our firm has.
We need the estimate to be able to calculate -
- Deceased Estates More Than 3 Years
- Discretionary Trusts where there are Foreign Beneficiaries
- Discretionary Trusts where there Minor Beneficiaries
- Discretionary Trusts where there is no beneficiary presently entitled30 votes -
Xero Tax(NZ) - Losses carried forward
Losses carried forward have to be manually entered into XPM tax each year. It would be great if the information flowed through automatically from the tax return so that all we have to do is confirm it matches the IRD assessment. At a minimum it would be great if the losses to carry forward figure from 2023 automatically rolled forward to 2024 once it has been confirmed.

Xero Tax(AU ) | Business Schedule - Individual Worksheets
We have some clients that have multiple businesses under their personal names. Can we please have individual worksheets for each business to input income and expenses which then automatically totals into the business schedule in the main form?
At the moment in XERO tax, we need to put the grand totals into the business schedule, then split the amounts across the businesses for each expense/income line item. This is not practical as we generally receive separate figures for each business, not a grand total.

Xero Tax (AU) - Map Tracking categories in tax return
Allow mapping of tracking categories in Xero Tax.
Xero Blue is better catered for tracking category use as opposed to subaccount creation, however, tracking categories from Xero Blue are unable to be mapped in Xero Tax. Therefore, manual entry is required to populate multiple schedules in Xero Tax.
Example:
• Client has two Rental Properties, therefore will have two Rental Schedules in the ITR
• Income from both properties is mapped to a singular GL Account ‘Rental income’
• The Income in Xero Blue file is segregated by tracking category option, e.g.
o Tracking Category: Property
o Category Options: Property…9 votes -
AU Tax - Basic tax calculator/estimate
A quick individual tax calculator - just requires taxable income and PAYG to be entered - and the tax, offsets and medicare is auto calculated. Tick box for resident, tax free threshold and private health.
Handisoft has a tax calculator that does this - the estimated tax is calculated in 10 seconds. Much better and quicker than the ATO's calculators (and the ATO doesn't do current year - only prior).

Xero Tax (UK) - Add CAI (Chartered Accountants Ireland) as an option for Accountants' Report type
As a UK accountancy practice based in in Northern Ireland, it would be great if our Regulatory Body, Chartered Accountants Ireland was available for us to choose as an out of the box Accountants Report. This would then allow us to use this for Company Accounts and then to use the 'default report' option for Sole Traders, who require a different type of Accountants Report.

AU Tax - Remove 0 in managed funds pre-fill from ATO
We have noticed an error, where, when managed fund distributions are prefilled from the ATO, a zero is put in the Item 24 - Other Income
This causes an error for each managed fund prefill that needs to be manually fixed by going in and deleting that entry in the schedule.
I just recently had a client with 15+ managed fund imports (owned jointly with his wife, so same issue on her side) which meant I had to waste quite a bit of time going into each schedule, only to delete the zero at the bottom.
If you could arrange…

AU Tax - Ability to create future tax forms for other entity types.
Ability to have future tax forms generated for multiple entity types and not just individuals. This will enable practitioners to prepare tax returns for entities that have substituted accounting periods much before the due dates without having to request extensions from the tax office also will give us the ability to work out the timing differences on tax profit more accurately rather than relying on spreadsheets etc.

AU Tax | Cover letter - Add Title placeholder
Need a placeholder for title (Mr/Ms etc) for cover letters. It should be an easy implementation, as tax returns should already have that as a label. We need it for the address section of the cover letter.

AU Tax - Bulk Update Staff Access Feature in Xero Tax
The ability to bulk update staff access to client tax returns in xero tax. Currently, the only way to change staff access to certain clients in the xero tax feature is to go into each client file and change it individually. A bulk update function would be more efficient and less time consuming.

NZ Tax - Include GST tax type for tax statements report
It would be useful if in the Tax Statements reporting data set, we could also see GST statement data (currently only Income Tax and SLS show) so that we can check for unpaid GST balances.

Xero Tax XPM - calculate the estimated PAYG instalment payable in SMSF Tax Returns
It would be good if Xero Tax calculated the estimated PAYG instalment payable in SMSF Tax Returns as we use this to inform our clients of what amounts they are up for in the new financial year, a very important piece of information for them to consider re timing and amount of cashflow outgoings. Xero Tax does it for individuals so not sure how difficult it would be to make it apply for all entities subject to the PAYG Instalment system.

AU Tax: CGT - Option to copy and transfer
Capital gains tax worksheet - where an capital assets is owned by more than one person say husband and wife 50:50. If the worksheet has been prepared for one taxpayer, have an option to have this copied/ transferred to the other taxpayer similar to rent schedule.
For property generally there could be just one item but for shares there may be huge number of CGT events.

Xero Tax - Confirm the Foreign Income Tax Offset Calculation in Xero
Whilst this currently auto calculates, there is no calculation in Xero to confirm the return has the correct amount. This has to be checked manually, which can leave room for errors and requires extra work by users. It would be more efficient if the system could check this.

Xero Tax (AU) | One click tax estimate
One click tax estimate.
We often just print a tax estimate and it would be great to have one button for the tax estimate rather than having to unclick all the other options in the print menu.12 votes -
Xero Tax - Add a simple tax calculator
Tax calculator - Handi has a button you can press for a tax calculator, just enter the income and it shows the Tax, Medicare & offsets (low income & former low & middle income). Awesome feature that allows you to show a client quickly why their refunds are low. Also allows a quick cross check.
