Jobs - Reduce whitespace
The new beta job creation doesn't do anything the old one didn't do, everything is just either bigger or surrounded by more white space so there's less information on screen at once. It feels great on a touchscreen on an iPad, but I would assume most users are on a desktop where the experience is now just worse.
48 votesThanks for your feedback on our updates to Jobs within the practice experiences beta. Our team are following and considering all feedback we receive through this forum very closely and I'll be sure to let you know if there are any updates.

XPH | Homepage - Ability to Filter Jobs
It would be helpful to add additional filters to the jobs on the dashboard so that you could filter out certain job states and see true workflow for jobs that are due at that point in time.
25 votesAppreciate you letting us know how filters on the Jobs widget in the new XPH homepage would be useful.
We're keen to get a better idea of the number of users that'd also find this helpful. Feel free to share the link to this idea with other colleagues that'd find this useful too!
We'll share if there are any updates for you here.

Xero HQ - Display 'Start Date' column in Client and Group job lists
The list of jobs at a client level and Group level no longer displays the start date. Only due date is showing.
This functionality was available before. I am not sure why it was omitted. Helps team members to review and prioritise jobs for a Group based on the start date when the job was received or has been scheduled to start.14 votesThank you for sharing your idea and highlighting the changes that are most important to you.
Your idea has been reviewed and is now open for community support. We encourage you to share it with colleagues who may benefit, so they can add their vote.

XPH - Ability to merge jobs
Ability to merge jobs rather than moving timesheets.
10 votesHi Sue, thanks for sharing this! A merge feature for jobs could make managing duplicates much easier and help keep your records accurate and up to date. It would ensure that notes, tasks, and time entries all stay in one place, giving you a clearer view of each job’s progress and profitability.
We’ve moved this along to Gaining Support so the product team can see how useful a merge tool could be.

XPH - Add My Jobs widget to the homepage
Having to navigate to the "Job Manager" tab to view a list of all my jobs is not very practical. It would make far more sense to see all your jobs in the homepage. For the people who do not want this feature, there can be an option to hide this widget.
7 votesHi Cherry, thanks for sharing this idea! It’s clear that not having “My Jobs” on the homepage adds extra clicks and makes it harder to keep on top of daily priorities.
As a workaround in the meantime, the Jobs table on the homepage does have filters — you can filter the jobs by Assigned to me as staff, Assigned to me as manager, or Assigned to me as partner to help focus on the tasks relevant to you. Still, we know a dedicated homepage widget would make this even smoother.
I’ve moved this to Gaining Support so we can track interest and see how many in the community would benefit. Your votes and comments help our product team understand the impact, so please keep them coming!

Jobs - Add contrast to the new job creation design
The new beta job creation doesn't do anything the old one didn't do, everything is just either bigger or surrounded by more white space so there's less information on screen at once. It feels great on a touchscreen on an iPad, but I would assume most users are on a desktop where the experience is now just worse.
14 votesThanks for your feedback on the new layout of Jobs, Chris! It's really good to hear how this is landing with beta participants and where you see we could further improve this for you.

XPH | Jobs - Enter Time should default to last end time in your timesheet
Enter Time - you have to put in start time. It should default to your last time entry like it does under view timesheets.
6 votesThanks for sharing back on how you enter time for Jobs, Lisa. We'll start to get a gauge of others interest ion this from your idea here.
We'll keep a close watch and let you know if there are any updates planned for this here.

Clients | Jobs - Ability to search
Please add "Search Function" under the client Jobs - same as in the job manager in order to search for specific "current" and "archived" jobs, the sort function is not sufficient.

XPH | Home Page Job Over view - provide the ability to add Priority Column
Home Page Job Over view - provide the ability to add Priority Column and the sort should be by due date then priority level - Urgent to low
3 votesHi Josef, I can totally see how a "Priority" column could be a real game-changer for practice management. When you’ve got a long list of client jobs, it helps to see instantly which ones need attention right away and which can wait.
For now, some partners find it helpful to use the Job Status or Due Date columns to sort tasks, or even add a visual cue in the Job Name to highlight urgent work.
We’ve moved this idea to ‘Gaining Support’ so our product teams can see the impact. We’d love to hear your thoughts on how this can be impactful to you.

Workpapers - Ability to attach to multiple jobs
It would be so useful if there was an ability to have workpapers attached to multiple jobs - EG Workpapers created for the 2026 attached to all BAS/IAS jobs, FBT, Annuals
3 votesThanks for your feedback, Jess. This isn't something we have planned at this stage but we'll start to gauge the interest from community here. I'll share if there are any updates.

Jobs - Multiple clients applied to one job
Should be able to Apply multiple clients to a job - In the case of a couple, it would be a lot easier to be able to apply one job for both individuals as the meetings and communication if often done together and the returns completed at the same time.
1 voteThanks for your feedback and the detail of why this idea would be helpful for you, Jocelyn. It'll be good to get an idea of the interest from other practice users in this here. I'll share if there are any updates.

Xero Partner Hub - Access to Job from Timer
I use the timer, it would be great to be able to access the job from the timer menu rather than opening job manager.
3 votesThanks for your feedback, Mel. Good to be getting this feedback on the improvements that could make Xero Partner Hub better for you 😊
I've shared this back with product and I'll let you know if there are any updates.

XPM - Inline editing for job due dates on the Jobs dashboard and Client tabs
It would be good to have the ability to quickly update the due date of a job either directly from the XPH homepage under the 'Jobs assigned to me as staff' or from the client 'Jobs' section without having to go into each job and edit the due date. Or both options would be great too!
2 votesThanks for your feedback! Your idea has been reviewed and is now open for community support.
To help it gain momentum, please share it with your colleagues so they can cast their votes. Community members can now also comment on your post to share how this feature would improve their workflow in Xero.

Projects - Suggestion for scrollable or expandable jobs list on the Dashboard widget
Ability to scroll through jobs on Dashboard.
List in Widget to be able to scroll through.
2 votesHi Jacqui,
Thanks for this suggestion! I’ve moved your idea into Gaining Support.
Currently, the Projects widget on the dashboard only shows a handful of your most recent or active jobs. If you have a larger list, you have to click away from the dashboard to see them all.
I can see how a scrollable list would be a huge benefit for project managers who want to keep an eye on everything from one screen! I’ve updated the title to "Projects - Suggestion for scrollable or expandable jobs list on the Dashboard widget" to help other members find and vote for it.
Quick Tip for now: Don't forget that you can also use the JAX (Just Ask Xero) assistant on your dashboard. You can ask "Show me the status of [Project Name]" to get a quick update without leaving the page while we wait for more votes on this idea!

XPH - Make "Email to Client" button visible
Email client button has been hidden away in the three dots at top right. I use this everyday and it's so annoying that it's not visible anymore
1 voteThanks for raising this, Andrea — and for clearly outlining how the current placement of the “Email to Client” button is affecting your workflow.
It sounds like those extra clicks at the final step of a return can really slow things down.
I’ve moved this idea to Gaining Support so we can gauge wider interest. If this would make a difference for you too, please add your vote or share how you’d like to see it improved — it all helps build the case.

Job Notifications - should show in Job Manager
Job Notifications - new notifications do not open up until you open an existing job (so we do not know that they are even there until you open the job)..Suggest Job Notifications should open when entering Job Manager (i.e. One level up).
2 votesThanks for the suggestion, Barry. Good to be hearing this sort of feedback on how we could improve your use of Jobs in Xero Partner Hub.
We'll get a sense of the interest from community in this here and I'll share if there are any changes for the notifications planned.

XPH - Add a "Staff Member" filter to the All Tasks view
When going to all tasks, it would be great to filter by staff member
1 voteHi Sue, thanks for bringing this idea to our attention! A staff member filter sounds like it could be a real time-saver for managing Tasks in XPH. Being able to see everything assigned to one team member instantly would make it much easier to balance tasks and ensure nothing slips through the cracks.
We’ve moved this idea to Gaining Support so the product team can see how helpful more granular task filtering would be.
