Workpapers - Status per Account for reveiw
Preparers cannot flag status per account — status applies to the whole category. While notes can be added per account, it’s not easy to see which are ready for review and which ones are with queries.

Workpapers | Income Tax - Reduce column width in L
A little UI matter, I know the column widths will scale depending on the window size; however, when I go into the Income Tax workpaper, the spacing seems quite wide even in a smaller split-screen window. It would be nice if the column widths were narrower

Workpapers - More options for Comparison Period
When preparing monthly or quarterly workpapers, we would like to be able to select the comparison period as last month, quarter or end of last financial year. Not just the same period last year.

Workpapers Spreadsheet - formatting, cell selection, size of sheet
Can the spreadsheet have more formatting options - like borders so that you can have a top and bottom border on a total cell? Bold type?
Also, it needs more functionality like being able to select the range of cells to sum =sum(select cells using mouse) instead of manually typing in the range.
When you copy and paste from Excel formatting is lost and you cannot add additional lines past where the data pastes if past row 20 (The data itself can paste to additional rows). If data goes to row 19, you cannot insert additional lines past 20 either.
13 votesHi community, appreciate the desire for more formatting in new Workpapers and this is something our product team would like to explore more but with a few other items in the pipeline atm isn't road mapped just yet.
We'll continue to gauge the interest in this idea and as soon as there are updates I'll share with you all, here.

Workpapers - Apply status options to the whole workpaper
The Status options (Completed, ready for review etc. ) apply to the whole workpaper, for example Current Liabilities. Is it possible to apply a status to each individual account within that workpaper, ie so that as you are reviewing you can mark each account as completed or rework required as you go, instead of the status applying all accounts within that workpaper.

New Workpapers - Hide 'N/A - not applicable' workpapers or be able to change the workpaper code to custom sort
A function whereby we can either toggle hide/unhide on workpapers that are 'N/A - not applicable' would be very useful. Or at least the ability to amend the workpaper codes so 'N/A - not applicable' workpapers can be custom sorted to the bottom of the pack, out of the way

Workpapers - Show variation of bank reconciliation from closing balance
In the bank reconciliation, it would be great to be able to enter the closing balance per the bank statement, and the workpaper shows any variance.

Workpapers - Post a journal without creating a draft
Manual journals have to be saved as a draft first. Then they need to be edited to be posted. This is an unnecessary step. Or if it is required, it should be role based.

Workpapers - Ability to navigate to other workpapers
Instead of having to go back to the main overview and then select the workpaper, it would be good to be able to have a drop down to select a workpaper as well as the forward and back buttons.

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"
7 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.

Workpapers - Directly attach reports from Xero blue
It would be great it we could select a report from Xero Blue and attach it to a workpaper - eg. Aged Receivables Summary Report to Accounts Receivable. Currently you have to export the report and link. It would save time if you could directly link the report (preferably as a static PDF or to the spreadsheet section?
