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.

XPH | Jobs - Auto-Generate VAT and Statutory Jobs Using HMRC Obligations
Tax obligations, such as VAT returns, can be linked to a job when you create the job. I assume the job details are pulling from the HMRC API for MTDVAT. It shows the period start date and end date and the submission due date. Why doesn't XPM a) allow us to specify a period start date, period end date and submission due date b) automatically fill these fields in c) create future jobs automatically based on the 'obligation periods' retrieved from HMRC d) automatically suggest to 'complete' the job if it knows that the VAT return has been filed -…
1 voteHi Louis, thanks for sharing this suggestion. We can see how having VAT and jobs automatically created from HMRC obligations would reduce manual setup and help with staying on top of deadlines.
At the moment, HMRC obligation dates and statuses are already brought into Xero for VAT and Tax Manager to support filings, but XPM jobs sit separately as a workflow tool for managing internal work and time. Because of this, jobs don’t currently generate automatically from HMRC data.
I’ve moved this to Gaining Support so we can track interest and share it with our product teams.
With regards to the Companies House integration suggestion, this will be best raised in our Xero Developers Ideas website instead as it involves external app.

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 😊

XPH | Jobs widget - Ability to sort and group jobs by Partner or Manager
Homepage
Give the ability for jobs to be sorted by manager or accountant etc so it has some meaning to the user. By practice is not very helpful.1 voteWe can see how being able to group or sort the Jobs widget by Partner or Manager would make it easier to understand how work is distributed across the team, without needing to leave the dashboard.
I’ve moved this to Gaining Support so we can track interest and share it with our product teams for consideration.

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!

XPH - Show archived Tax Returns and Activity Statements within the linked Job
Please return the facility that was in XPM whereby an archived TR or AS still showed in the to which it is attached. It makes it incredibly difficult now to get an overall view of the completed AS during the year. Having archived TR or AS disappearing from the job is incredibly inconvenient.
1 voteHi Sean, thanks for the suggestion! We understand that when you’re reviewing a job’s history, not having a complete view of all related tax returns and activity statements in one place can add extra steps to your workflow.
At the moment, you can view this information by navigating to the Tax menu and filtering for archived returns. We can see how having a full audit trail of returns and statements directly within the job would make things more efficient.

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.

XPM - Updating Job States in bulk using CSV files
Xero Practice Manager currently allows bulk job state changes only through the Job Manager interface or via API integrations. However, there is no native feature to bulk upload a CSV file to update job states for existing jobs. This limitation creates inefficiencies for practices managing large volumes of jobs, especially when correcting errors or applying workflow changes across hundreds of jobs.
Proposed Solution:
Introduce a Bulk CSV Upload for Job Updates feature in XPM that:Matches existing jobs using Job Number as a unique identifier.
Allows updating specific fields such as:Job State
Priority
Assigned StaffProvides a preview screen…
