  1. 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.

    We appreciate the support this idea is receiving and will continue to monitor feedback this receives for consideration in future planning.

    I'll make sure to share if there's any progress for you all here.

  2. 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.

    Hi team, atm we're considering improvements to enable you to navigate between workpapers without needing to go back to the workpaper list.

    I'll be sure to keep you updated of progress around this, here. Thanks

  3. Within a specific workpaper we have the ability to add a note and select the account code that the note applies to. Can we add the account name in there as well?

    Thanks for the feedback about our new Workpapers solution! We have a close eye on this feedback as the team continue to develop this product.

    We'll keep an eye on the interest for this here, and I'll be sure to share if there is any progress.

  4. Currently we can refresh workpapers from the workpapers, working trial balance, manual journals and settings screen, but when we open a specific workpaper that button is no longer available. Can we have this when working in a specific workpaper. This will save us having to click back when we are making adjustments

    Hi everyone, we appreciate the support this idea is gaining, and understand the use in being able to refresh individual workpapers.

    This is something we have intentions of developing out but don't have a timeframe on this just yet. I'll be sure to update you here as soon as there's progress. 🙂

  5. Is a GST workpaper being developed or would there be one similar to the GST workpaper in exisiting workpapers? We are onboarding staff to old workpapers so having similar or improved workpapers would be useful.

    Hi team, we appreciate your feedback as you get stuck in to trying our our new Workpapers. Our team have been monitoring feedback closely and I'd like to share that we're in the process of developing a GST Workpaper in our new solution. We'll be back to share once it's released. 😊

  6. Mak the button to notify preparer / reviewer more prominent. The notifications are buried in a menu make them more prominent so the reviewer and preparer can notify each other when tasks have been completed

    Hi everyone, thanks for showing your support in this idea. Paying close attention to the feedback in this forum our product team have picked this up and are now working on improving the visibility of this button in the new solution. I'll be back to share as soon as I have more news 😁

  7. When working in the manual journals, you receive a message that the journal is out of balance. It would be great if this message also advised the amount of the out of balance.

    Thanks for sharing your idea, Michaella! It's great to hear what improvements would help in new Workpapers.

    We'd like to gauge the interest from others in this here and I'll let you know if any plans are made for groups.

  9. 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"

    Hi 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.

  10. 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?
