Workpapers - Display variance amount for updated account balances
Whilst the 'Updated' yellow tag on the Workpaper and specific account is useful, it would be an improvement to also show the difference between the approved workpaper and the new updated account balance after the balances have been refreshed. It will make it very simple to identify the updates needed for the workpaper.
1 voteHi Chris, thanks for sharing your thoughts on workpaper variance displays. It’s helpful to understand how seeing the difference between approved workpapers and updated account balances could support your workflow.
The community team has reviewed your idea and moved it into Gaining support, so it’s now open for votes and comments. If you’re able to add a bit more detail about your use case, it may help others understand the value and give the product team clearer context.
We’ll let you know if anything changes as the idea progresses.

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.
2 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 | 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 - 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.
It would also be great if the bank name and a partial account number could be pulled through to help identify accounts where a client has many bank accounts.

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.

For now, it'd be good to get a sense of interest from others that'd also find this useful.

Workpapers - Ability to customise Note Type
Can we customise the Note Types? Also, a note can only be linked to 1 account code. We would like to have the ability to link a note to multiple accounts, including different account types (eg liability and expense).
8 votesAppreciate hearing what features would be useful to you in new Workpapers, team.
It's best to keep each idea in the forums separate so we can track demand and keep you updated on each.
I've created another for the ability to link to multiple accounts here, and we'll track the interest for customising the note type through this idea.
I'll let you know if there are any plans made for this.
