  1. would be good to be able to resize the widgets to show more of what is important to us individually ie: I would like to be able to make the job widget bigger to show more jobs and shrink the time summary which is not important for my particular role

    Hi team, thanks for sharing this! We can see how resizable widgets would make the Partner Hub feel more tailored to each practice. Some teams might want a big view of their Alerts, while others prefer a compact Time Summary—being able to adjust widget sizes would make the dashboard feel more like your own workspace.

    Currently, fixed-size widgets can make key information feel crowded or require extra clicks to see more rows of data.

    We’ve moved this idea to Gaining Support so our product teams can understand the demand for a more flexible dashboard. We’d love to hear from you—which widgets would you most like to expand or resize?

  2. Customisable graph/table colours would be excellent, even if it were just 2 or 3 preset options. The blue/red default is a bit harsh.

    Hi everyone, thanks for the suggestion! We understand that having more control over how your dashboard data looks would make it easier to interpret your practice’s performance at a glance. Customising graph and table colours isn’t just about aesthetics—it helps the data stand out in a way that fits your reporting needs or brand.

    We know that adding more flexibility here would make it easier to focus on the metrics that matter most. We’ve moved this idea to Gaining Support so we can track interest and share with our product teams how visual customization could enhance your daily experience in Xero Practice Manager.

  3. In the current/old XPM, the system would let you know on the home page if there was a filing error on a tax return. This meant you were able to see and sort this quickly. Can we please have a Taxes widget which includes a notification when there is an error in a tax return marked as signed (so we can fix things asap).

    Hi team, thanks for continuing to engage, and share the importance of easily viewing tax filing errors from the Xero Partner Homepage with us here.

    Right now, for AU Practices there are a few tax widgets available that those with View tax return permissions will be able to view.

    Both Activity Statements, and Income tax returns widgets will show returns with lodgment errors.

    We're also in the process of developing tax widgets for NZ practices and I'll be sure to update you with more on this once it's ready 😊

  4. The timer function (clock in top right corner) has the ability to Start a stopwatch. However if a second task takes over you cannot time the new task, then return and recommence the time on an existing entry.
    Could we gain the ability to Start the timer again on any existing timesheet that is not submitted or locked. This would allow task switching without necessarily meaning we have to enter multiple fragmented timesheets for a single task.

  6. XPH colour - can we have something a little more lively then grey? Tax isn't all that exciting as it is and the grey instead of the green that it used to be (or even a nice blue) just feels a little torturous

    Thanks for your feedback, Gabrielle. This isn't something we have direct plans of changing atm, however it'll be good to get a feel of interest around from your idea here. We'll keep an eye out and share if there are any updates.

  7. It would be useful to easily view and take action in client orgs where a bank feed has a connection issue.

    It’s clear that manually checking each client organisation to see if a bank feed has dropped out can take up valuable time.

    We hear you that a central view or alert on the Practice Homepage would make it easier to spot connection issues across your client base and address them before they affect month-end work.

    As mentioned, surfacing this in a homepage widget would reduce the need to check individual files and make it easier to stay on top of feed status.

    I’ve added this to Gaining Support so we can track interest and share with our product team how this at-a-glance visibility could improve day-to-day practice management.

  8. Allow users to pin the Client Search bar and Timer on the Righthand side of the screen so they remain visible and accessible regardless of which screen the user is working on.

    This should result in easier time tracking with the timer always visible and available.

    Thanks for raising this. We understand the request to make the Timer and Client Search bar persistent across the page, so they're available without needing to scroll back to the top.

    I’ve updated this idea to Gaining Support so we can continue tracking community interest. If this is something you'd find useful, share how you’d like these controls positioned.

  9. Getting people's names correct is table stakes.

    My name has an accent on the e - Rémi - but it comes up on XPH as "Rémi". I would not want my staff's names, or client names, appearing amiss. Not sure if this would then flow through to invoices.

    Hi everyone, thanks for your engagement on this idea! We completely understand why it matters, especially for our global Partners. A person’s name is a big part of who they are, and having to simplify or change it just to fit into a software field can be frustrating and confusing.

    We’ve moved this idea to ‘Gaining Support’ so our product teams can see its impact. Are there particular characters or languages where you notice this most?

  10. Would love to have the % of billable hours back pls :)

    Thanks for your feedback here, Ruby. We'll start to get a track of the interest in this through your idea here, as our product team continue to make improvements to the homepage. I'll be sure to let you know if there are any plans made.

  11. It would be good to be able to edit the date range on the Homepage Time Summary widget so it reflects the same as our pay week.

    Thanks for bringing this idea to the community, Casey.

    Having the option to choose the date range shown in the Time Summary widget could make it easier to review time over the periods that matter most to your team, without needing to switch to other areas of Xero Partner Hub.

    I've updated the status of this idea to Gaining Support. If you'd like to see this added, please continue to vote and share how you'd use custom date ranges in your day-to-day workflow.

  12. Where there is a widget showing the BAS returns required to be prepared for the Quarter, would it be possible to tap onto that Bar Chart, so that it hsows the names of the entities or takes you to the listing of the entities to have their returns prepared?

    Thanks for highlighting this idea, Michael. Being able to select a section of the Activity Statement widget and go straight to a filtered list could help reduce a few extra steps when managing work from the dashboard.

    For now, clicking on the Go to tax link will redirect you to the Tax Returns list.

    We've updated the status of this idea to Gaining Support so we can continue tracking community interest. If you'd find this useful, add your vote and share which widget sections you'd expect to take you directly to filtered results.

  13. Being able to see which clients have feeds that need refreshing would help with taking actions quickly to ensure client data stays updated

    Hi team, we recognise that staying on top of disconnected or expiring bank feeds is important for keeping workflows running smoothly.

    We hear that having a dedicated view or alert on the Practice Homepage would make it easier to manage bank feed refresh across clients, rather than only picking up issues when working in a specific file.

    This is now in Gaining Support so we can gather interest and share how this could make day-to-day practice management easier.

  14. Activity Statements Widget, it would be able to click on the columns and got to a filtered view of the activity statements. Also it would be good to be able to filter by partner/manager. On of the big issues with auto created BAS/IAS is the is not parter/manager assigned to them if we could get a filter for partner/manager based on the partner/manager set in the client file it would be fantastic.

    Hi everyone, it’s helpful to hear that the Activity Statements widget could do more to support quick oversight. Being able to filter by Partner or Manager and click through to those filtered views sounds like it would make it much easier to stay on top of workloads and keep deadlines visible across the practice.

    For now, a good option is to run the full Activity Statement report and use the filters there to drill into specific staff portfolios.

    I’ve moved this idea to Gaining Support so we can keep track of interest and help our product teams see the value of adding more interactivity and staff-level filtering here.

  15. While filtering for Income tax and Sales tax is a great feature on the widget, can the IR526 returns be removed from the Income Tax tab? IR526 is not an income tax return and it shouldn't be included in the stats.

    If you're interested to see recent releases or get a pulse on what's coming soon see The Long and Short of it. 🙂

  16. Time summary on home page. It would be great if we could have a seven day view on the main page as not all work is completed within traditional business hours.

    I was sure that it showed me seven days last week but I am wondering if this updates if there are weekend entries?

    Really enjoy the experience so far!

    Thanks!

    Appreciate your feedback, Kerry. Currently the time summary widget is based around capacity which is only Mon-Fri. However, our product team are keen to get a better sense of interest around this and will be keeping a watchful eye on the support in this idea.

    I'll let you know if there are any updates.

  17. It would be great to have an option to pin the Timesheet panel within the dashboard so it remains visible alongside the other widgets. At the moment, the Timesheet overlays part of the dashboard and covers other widgets. Ideally, when pinned, the dashboard widgets would automatically shift to the left and resize accordingly, allowing the Timesheet and all widgets to be viewed simultaneously without obstructing each other.

    Along with votes, other members can now comment to share additional detail about how your idea could improve their experience with Xero.

  18. The Left Arrow is the first thing we would naturally think to click when we want to enter a separate time entry while keeping the timer running. However, clicking it causes the timer to disappear and stops recording altogether.

    You can keep the timer running by clicking “Save and Keep Recording,” but this doesn’t feel intuitive as the arrow. There’s also nothing on the Left Arrow indicating that clicking it will cause the current time recording to be lost. In practice, it seems to function similarly to the “Discard” option, which makes the expected behaviour even less clear.

    It would…

    Thanks for your idea, Ana. Appreciate users expectation of actions in the product can differ and making this arrow more clearly stated would help with interpretation and use.

    We don't have immediate plans for changing this, however we'd like to get a wider sense of interest. I'll share if there are any updates around this, here.

  19. We use milestones on jobs to prompt staff as a reminder such a following up a small matter and these are displayed on the dashboard of the home. These milestones no longer appear anywhere except buried in the job they are part of so it would be nice if they could be displayed via a widget or list on the home page?
