New Workpapers - Add sub-headings in checklist section
Ability to add in the checklist section more description/content in the checklist section of the workpaper lines. This would allow us to include essential sections required by the CPA, like Engagement Acceptance/Continuance and Knowledge of the Entity. I built these in the classic Workpapers. Too bad I can't carry over the Workpapers lines I built in the classic version. I attached a screenshot of one section in classic Workpapers showing a line, the guidance and comments.

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 - Summary of statuses for reviewers
At the moment there is not a clear and concise summary that the Reviewers can see the status of all queries, client, internal and reviews which is annoying. The same for just having a fully complete tick box on the summary worksheet somewhere - this should obviously be changed if a refresh is done and any changes.

Workpapers - Only view related documents within a worksheet
Showing all documents uploaded when you are in individual Worksheet is too much noise. We only need to see the uploaded documents relating to that specific Worksheet not the full Workpaper pack.

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…

A1: Financial Statements & Tax Return - Ability to review and approve sections like in old workpapers
We are experiencing a significant workflow issue with the layout and functionality of A1 – Financial Statements & Tax Return in the new Xero Workpapers.
How We Used This Section in the Previous Workpaper Pack
In the previous version, this section functioned as our final review and sign-off hub. It included structured default notes such as:
Financial Statements
Company/Trust Tax Return
Individual Tax Returns
Final Email to Client
This setup allowed us to:
Upload final versions of each document
Review each document individually
Add review notes directly against that specific document
Tick off and approve each item only once it…

New Xero Workpapers - Income Tax workpaper - fix Net profit link (doesn't factor in trust distributions)
The Net profit amount that pulls through to Xero Workpapers treats trust distributions to beneficiaries as expenses. They should be excluded (as it does with Income Tax Expense and Dividends Paid).

Ability to add our practice workpapers each year
Prefer to have one set of workpapers completed in a single software. Within Xero workpapers have ability to attach excel template to specific workpapers for completion eg live stock workpaper, overdrawn current account, hire purchase workpaper, etc.
The most important workpapers have calculations that are required outside of verifying an account balance. Eg those mentioned above.
If unable to have all workpapers in one place, it's easier to stay with current excel pack.7 votesHi 👋 your idea is being looked into by our Community team. We'll be in touch soon to update you once your idea has been reviewed.

Workpapers - Show attachments in Supporting Documents section
When documents are attached to line items, could they please also show in the Supporting documents section? Currently, they only appear again if you click the line item.
For example, on the Bank Reconciliation workpaper, a statement has been attached to each bank account line, but when the workpaper is opened again, you only know something is attached due to the icon under Actions. You have to click on the line item for the supporting document to appear below (which isn't intuitive).
Everything attached should show in the Supporting documents section, as per the old Workpapers.

New workpapers - Entertainment and Home Office Adjustments
Those workpapers were available in the old version but are no longer included in the new one. I found them quite useful, and they allowed adjustment journals to be posted directly within the workpaper. Now everything has to be done manually.

New Workpapers - Add more statuses.
Currently it defaults to In Progress and I can't seem to change that? At least in Old Workpapers we had On Hold, which we used if there were queries with the client and the job was stalled. And Done, when it was out for signing and waiting for the workpapers to be signed off. It would be really handy to a) be able to customise the Status, and then b) change it.
Also I tried the Notify feature and that didn't update Status to Ready for Review either
Otherwise looking at my client view of all workpapers in progress, we…9 votesHi 👋 your idea is being looked into by our Community team. We'll be in touch soon to update you once your idea has been reviewed.

Workpapers - Delete uploaded documents
When a document is uploaded then removed from a workpaper, it stays in the background when "Attach document" is selected. We need to be able to delete these if it was added by mistake or outdated.

Workpapers - Review approvals
Allow each reviewer to approve line items. There are now three people that can be assigned to a workpaper but they all share the same 'status dropdown'.
We need to be able to see the preparer, reviewer and final review separately.

Workpapers - if we're going to be splitting up the P&L accounts.. EXP.DIS accounts should not be on the Expenses workpaper
Profit distribution accounts might have an EXP in the report code (and Xero might force us to use Expenses as the account type in Xero).. but they're not expenses.
Xero has split Revenue, COGS and Expenses across three workpapers.. but still lumped profit distribution accounts in Expenses.

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 - 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...
