Workpapers - I don't need a whole other workpaper for one account (Wages)
It's bad enough having 3 workpapers for the profit and loss... I can't change where any of the accounts go and now Wages (1 account) is split off into its own 😅

Workpapers - one click to save and close notes popup window (as Queries used to)
In original Workpapers, if I was adding a Query to an account or workpaper, after typing the Query I could click Save and the Query was saved and the popup window closed.
This is great and made total sense as more often than note, I am adding ONE Query/Note per account.
Now I have to click save and then I have to click close.
I don't want more clicks!!!

Workpapers - Indication of journals that are set to Rollover
Hi, I have able to find the ability to rollover the manual journal in drafts. However, once you select to have it rollover, you are unable to see that the journal is set for rollover. Would it be possible to add a text message of 'set to rollover' in the Rollover column so different people on the job are aware of the status of the journals.
2 votesThanks for popping back to update your idea, Bradley. I've shifted this across to gaining support so we can get a greater ideas of the interest in this here. We'll share if there are any plans made for surfacing an indication to help you identify where a journal is set to rollover.

Workpapers Tab - Analytical Review
Can we have a spot that we look at all workpapers, instead of having to click into each, this is something that reviewers find frustrating & creates a barrier for older partners (less tech inclined) - like the old ones "Analytical Review", if you don't add a link on "Working Trial Balance",
This is if we cannot have the links in the "Working trial Balance"
9 votesHi team, thanks for your inputs here. This is an idea that our product team are exploring and considering how they improve the collaboration. For now we'll shift into discovery and I'll share when there is more news around this.

Posting journals that need gst return adjustment
When posting journals I can't see the cash / accrual options? When posting EOFY adjustments for non-ded entertainment and home office would need the cash basis option so updates in blue xero on the next gst return. Does selecting the tax inclusive from the drop down have this impact?

Workpapers | Accounts receivable hotlink - link to summary report for reviewers
The current account receivables hotlink is the detailed report for Accounts receivable which can be very busy - ideally the summary report would be better for Reviewers who don't need to see the individual invoice level of detail.

Workpapers - Income Tax should never default to NA Not Applicable. Franking Credits should never default to Not Started for Trusts.
I started a Workpaper pack for a Trust.
Workpapers defaulted the statuses of the following workpapers:
- Income Tax: NA Not Applicable
- Franking Credits: Not StartedThis is silly. Income Tax applies to every entity.. Franking Credits only apply to companies.

Allow businesses to access workpapers
Allow businesses access to workpapers including workflows etc, the same as accounting practices have. This will allow bigger businesses to set up appropriate workflows and not have to take reconciliations out of Xero to complete, saving time and improving processes.

Workpapers - Option to delete Manual Journal
The system currently does not display who posted the journal in either XWP or Xero (specific user).
Updates made to journals in Xero are not reflected in the XWP Manual Journal Summary.
Additionally, XWP only allows journals to be voided—there is no option to delete them.
4 votesHi April, I've just split this from your original idea here so we can gauge interest in being able to delete a Manual Journal separately.
Currently it's possible to Delete a Manual Journal while its in Draft, but like you noted can only be Voided once posted.
We'd like to get a better view of the interest in this from your idea here, and I'll let you know if there are any updates. Thanks!

Workpapers - Automatic Journals from rolled over workpapers
It would be a perfect scenario that with particular types of workpapers, we could auto post journals in the following year.
For example - Borrowing Cost - if Xero created a Borrowing Cost workpaper that tracked borrowing costs and kept an amortisation schedule - this would then be rolled over to the following financial year workpaper - but it could go one step further where when it is rolled over and updated for any new loans or refinanced/paid out existing loans, we could have the option to auto post the amortisation journal.
Same thing with things like Chattel mortgages, especially…
3 votesHiya team, we have recently released the ability to roll forward journals in new Workpapers.
You'll find this option in the header of the manual journal tab.
It's worth noting as you'll see from the note in my image - While you can set a manual journal to roll forward, this will not roll forward debit and credit values as often these will change year to year.
For the time being, we'll leave this idea open so we can continue to track interest in being able to automatically roll forward manual journals with values. To get more insight of the use case we'd love to hear more detail of situations our customers have where you'd want to roll forward journals with the same values? Thanks!

Workpapers - Ability to Link A Reconciliation Field in the Workpaper with Balance in Financials
There should be a way that we can link a field in the workpaper (say it's an excel spreadsheet) as the reconciliation field and it should match the Balance in Xero. The status of the Account should be able to reflect that it is "RECONCILED" in that the workpaper matches the balance in xero.
3 votesHi community, we've made a recent update that we'd love to share and believe may help achieve what you need here.
We've now added a supporting balance column, a new variance and change column.
It'd be great to hear if there is additional that you'd be looking for in this idea.

Working Trial Balance - Adjust order
To improve clarity and usability, please consider reorganizing the layout in the following order: Assets → Liabilities → Equity → Revenue → Expenses.
In addition, including a Net Profit/(Loss) summary at the bottom—or displaying Current Year Earnings within the Equity section—would provide users with a clearer financial overview.
4 votesHi team, we wanted to share that we have released some recent changes to the layout for the Working trial balance view Trial balance (grouped) and the additional views Trial balance (ungrouped), Balance Sheet, Profit and Loss.
We'd love to hear if these updates have helped achieve your needs in the ordering mentioned within this idea. Thanks!

Workpapers - Allocate and set up Folders in Report Code Category Order
Suggest Allocating the separate Profit Loss and Balance Sheet Accounts into Folders in Report Code Category order similar to how they are listed in the "Working Trial Balance". That way we can adjust the Report Codes to the move the accounts to their desired Folders in Xero Workpapers.

Workpapers - Add Related Account filter to Account Transactions
Add Related Account for Xero Work Papers so you can create or set specific Xero Account Transactions so that you can work with related account work papers. You could then sort, filter, and group transactions by Related Accounts based on date ranges. This would mean Xero Work Papers is the place to easily review and assess the accuracy of the other side of transactions and quickly see issues. It also means you can report on a Bank Account's Debits and Credits, grouped by Related Account Number. And then, on demand, click the related account in Xero and investigate/review it. This…

Workpapers - fix the buttons on the Note popup dialogue box
The buttons on the Note popup dialogue box are silly as.
Most dialogue boxes have actions on the bottom right. If a negative action (cancel/close), it would be to the left of the main action.
Add note button is middle left and miles from the bottom right.
Bottom right is the Close button. Close button is also highlighted blue, rather than white.
To point out how ridiculous this is.. as I am typing this idea, to the bottom right of the text box are two buttons, Cancel (white) on the left, and Post idea (blue) on the right...

Workpapers - Manual Journals - don't require a description (Manual Journals in Blue Xero don't)
Xero doesn't require a description for every line of a Manual Journal. Workpapers should be the same.
It also doesn't highlight/tell you which field it thinks is required but is missing. That's so lazy of the developers.
2 votesThank you for sharing your feedback and highlighting the inconsistency between Workpapers and Xero Blue regarding the requirement for descriptions on manual journal lines. We recognize that in Xero Blue, descriptions are not required for every line of a manual journal, while in Workpapers, this field is currently mandatory. We are moving this idea to “Gaining Support.” as we are actively monitoring interest and feedback from our community to help us prioritize future improvements.
We appreciate your input and encourage you to continue sharing your experiences. We’ll provide updates here as we review this idea further.
Thank you for helping us improve Xero Workpapers!
