Tick boxes for each preparer, manager & reviewer. Would stop wasting a lot of time having to recheck work already reviewed.
Each user should a box that needs to be ticked on each worksheet when they have completed that line. So at least 2 tick boxes - one for preparer and one for reviewer (3 if you are going to keep 2nd reviewer). Perhaps they could be renamed to Preparer, Manager, Reviewer instead as well.
Once both (or all 3 boxes) are ticked then the box on the Summary Sheet should automatically be ticked. At the moment anyone can tick any of the boxes and no controls over who has reviewed what.

Read Only Options
Can more users be allowed to view the new Xero Workpapers other than the usual 3 users?
Requiring an Admin staff member to kick people off or add people on to have a quick look at the Xero workpapers is quite tedious, so having an option to add a user as "Read only" and not occupy a preparer, reviewer or final reviewer slot could be handy.

workpaper link back client record in practice manager to access from there
List all completed and open working papers directly on the client’s practice manager record. This will allow for direct navigation from the client’s record to the working pack without needing to leave Practice Manager.

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!

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.

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.

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 | Edit Link - Not Delete Right Away
Whenever a link is attached in Xero Workpapers, and that link changes or gets deleted, there should be an option to simply edit or replace the existing link — instead of having to delete it and add a new one each time. The current process causes unnecessary delays when preparing workpapers.
1 voteHi team, I’ve got some updates on the Edit Link - Not Delete Right Away feature for Xero Workpapers. This is a confirmed feature for the new Xero Workpapers solution and is currently in development as part of the new Workpapers solution being developed in partnership with BGL and in the upcoming roadmap. The goal is to address a major workflow pain point that was raised directly from customer feedback. The plan is for a phased rollout, starting with Australia in FY26, Updates on the release will be shared through the Xero blog as we get closer to launch. This feature is part of a broader set of improvements focused on enhancing review, collaboration, and compliance within the new platform. ⭐
