  1. The ability to select multiple tax returns that are completed and have the quick action to approve or move it to out to sign or to sign state in the old Xero Practice Manager - Tax Manager is great. Unfortunately, this was removed in the new Beta version. Please bring this back.

    It's annoying to file a tax return we need to open one by one. Ok if we only have 1 or 2. At some point we can have more than 10 returns to lodge at the same time.

    Hi everyone, we understand interest and how bulk action in the new Tax Manager would improve efficiency when preparing tax for your clients.

    Tax Manager is a new experience that is currently in beta in Xero Partner Hub. Bulk actions high on the list of what's coming soon as we build features into this experience.

    We appreciate the importance of bulk actions to everyone here and will be sure to update you all as soon as this is rolled out.

  2. "Ready to Start" tax returns should not show up in existing jobs. We have all these tax returns that are showing up in Job that are not related to the client, Individual Tax Return showing up under an Activity Statement Job for a company that is completely unrelated. If they tax returns placeholder is going be added it should only appear under the client tax return tab, not in an existing Job. And there should be away to turn it off.

    Hi team, as we continue to progress with improvements for 'Ready to start' our product team would love to engage with users that have voted for this here; to get more understanding of your setup, and give input on early designs.

    If you'd be interested in meeting with the team you can book a time that works best for you through this link 🗓️ Thanks!

    Thanks for your feedback here, everyone. We appreciate hearing how we can keep developing Tax Manager to better your experience.

    As you may be aware Tax Manager is currently in beta and was released early for some users so you could access ready to start returns and the lodgment widget.

    We're currently working on other features to build on this feature and you can stay up to date with what's in the pipeline on our Xero central page.

    Filtering by partners and managers is on our radar too, and I'll shift the idea to Accepted for now, and be sure to share any progress for this here.

  4. You can apply filters, but it would be good to be able to save filters so that they can be used again. Basically the same function that is in Job Manager.

    Hi team, really good to hear your feedback on what could improve your experience with new Tax Manager which is currently in beta.

    We're listening to the feedback we're receiving about this from our community and while not in the works just yet, the ability to save custom filters is a feature we plan to develop.

    You can get more of a view of what's to come in Tax Manager through Xero Central, and I'll keep you updated here once this idea progresses with the team.

  5. Where has the function gone from the filed tab showing when a clients Notice of Assessment has been received back from the ATO.

    Appreciate the additional support this idea is getting. Please know this has been shared back with our product team who are taking a closer look into this.

    While we can't commit to development atm, I'll shift the idea to In discovery and we'll let you know of any further updates around this, here. Thanks

  6. In Tax Manager, Option to multiselect tax forms and lodge button. Similar to the Old tax returns window. It will be nice to have a column showing outcome for the form such as $$$ payable or Refundable. This will be more efficient.

    Thank you for your input on the changes that matter most to your workflow.


    What happens next? Your idea is now live for community support! To increase its visibility, share it with any colleagues who would benefit so they can vote.


    The community can also now use the comments section to provide more detail on why this update is a win for Xero users.

  7. The returns ready to start from the ATO list need to also contain clients on ATO list not in xero tax so that we can use this list as our master list to clean up ATO clients/add new ones that may have been missed.

    Hi team, we can see how having the Ready to Start list in Tax Manager to include ATO clients missing from XPM/Xero Tax could make cross checking your clients list more efficient. Using this list as a single source to clean up or add missed clients sounds like a practical way to reduce extra steps.

    This idea is now in Gaining Support, so it’s open for the community to vote and comment. If this would help your day-to-day work, we encourage you to add your vote and share your perspective—hearing how it could help in different situations gives the Product team a clearer picture of its value.

  8. The ability to create or show BAS statements in the tax manager would be good - you used to be able to create them from the tax tab but now I have to go into the client themselves and click create. Or just some way to make this easier overall - whether you have a BAS section in the Tax Manager, or a create statement button up the top.

    Appreciate you sharing your feedback on the Tax Manager beta, Serge. Our product team are paying close attention to the feedback we're receiving on this to understand how we can keep developing this experience. I'll be sure to share if there are any plans for providing this visibility of the status of a return.

  10. The Tax Manager would be improved if it could be sorted by Group, or at least allow us to add the Group column. This would enable a quick reference for one client with multiple entities.

    Hi Natalie, appreciate your idea about including prior year returns in the Ready to Start list. We can see how this could make workflows in Tax Manager a bit more straightforward.

    We’ve moved this to Gaining Support, so it’s now open for the community to vote and comment. Hearing how others might use this helps us understand the broader need.

    Our Product team is interested in more ideas for Tax Manager, so if you or others have thoughts on ways to improve it, feel free to share them. Thanks for getting the conversation going.

  12. Client still shows as needing to "out to sign" when they have signed and returned BAS.
    Same shows after refreshing or logging out and in again.
    The agent option showing is to click "sign" (which would be on behalf of client instead of client)
    Correct step should be the signed activity statement showing click "file".

  13. have a button within the 'ready to start' screen that requests the income tax client report list (per article: https://central.xero.com/s/article/Income-Tax-Client-report#ViewtheIncomeTaxClientreportdetailsinReportBuilder), and the ability to bring in all the client tax returns ready to file (where not already brought in)

    Thanks for sharing, Rhys. It'd be good to get an understanding of other practices that'd also find this helpful.

    Be sure to share your idea here with others in your practice that'd find this helpful so they can add their vote too. 🙂

  15. Can we have Late or Overdue Lodgements in a Separate Tab so they dobn't get buried with the others.

  16. It appears that as soon as I archive a Client, I no longer have access to any of the tax returns I've previously lodged for them. This is problematic when we need to keep our records for 7 years and FYI docs has kept the links to the signed and filed tax returns (and those links no longer work), but not the actual PDF signed tax returns. I've had questions from the new accountant and cannot see the original documents we've lodged.

  17. When adding a client to a group you have to sort and scroll through the list, you can't even type a certain letter to short cut the process. Please create a 'search' function in the groups list to make it easier to add clients to a group
