UK Tax - Ability to edit account headings on company accounts generated through blue Xero
It would be good to have the ability to amend account headings through the new company accounts via Xero blue. This could be linked to the reporting name or as an iXBRL heading. The main issue we are trying to address is including brackets around the word profit when there has been a disposal of a fixed asset (or loss if it is showing in the income section). just for clarity on the accounts.
1 voteThanks for sharing in the forums here, Becky. Appreciate the understanding of the pain point currently faced and how this could improve clarity. For now, we'll start to get a sense of the community interest in this here and I'll let you know if there are any updates.

Xero tax: live updates from IRD
In APS you have the ability to live synch the tax ledger. As an example a transfer to 2025 from 2024 income tax made today won't show until the next day in the tax return summary.
A synch button to do this would be helpful and save time from stopping the job until the next day to print/save12 votes -
NZ Tax - Submit a Tax Return Amendment
Similarly to iFirm, would be great to be able to make amendments to the return in Xero, mark it as an amendment, and then file from Xero rather than having to make the amendment in MyIR, then make the same amendment to the already filed tax return in Xero. Makes it harder to keep track of what has been done.

Subscription Management - Provide Cancellation Date on Cancelled Organisations
Provide a cancellation date on cancelled subscriptions. Just like it currently has "The organisation '' was originally created [DATE], it would be great to also have "The organisation '' was cancelled on [DATE].

AU Tax - Partnerships and trusts worksheet needs to include managed fund amounts
I have many clients with distributions from 'family trusts' as well as managed funds.
In an individual return the details are entered or prefilled as required, but the worksheet for Item 13 Partnerships and Trusts doesn't include managed fund distribution amounts. This leads to much confusion when clients see the worksheet at Item 13 and the amounts don't match. In this case the worksheet for Item 13 needed to be added to a separate managed fund worksheet six page later - and this was a simple return.
The worksheet at each question should show the amounts totalling the amounts reported.2 votesWe've Published Your Idea – Now It Needs Community Votes!

Practice Manager | Onboarding - Companies house sync
Companies House sync - Client Onboarding
Would like to see a Companies House sync for this. Our current PM system has this facility and it saves so much time (and is accurate). Also used as a check when submitting annual CS01 forms. We are considering moving to XPM and this would seal the deal

AU Tax - Improve reporting for share acquisitions and disposals
For the capital gain worksheet, it can't enter the number of the shares sold and bought. Most of time, the shares sold and bought will operate in different time during the year, it is more efficient to have the number shares match between sold and bought figures.
And also can transfer the worksheet to another partner is they are 50%, reduce time to enter again.
1 voteHi all, we can see how improving the capital gains worksheet in Xero Tax could really streamline things.
At the moment, there's no way to enter the number of shares bought and sold separately, even though these often happen at different times. Being able to match share quantities across transactions would make reporting more accurate and reduce manual checking.
We've also heard similar feedback around shared ownership. A suggestion to allow copying or transferring the worksheet to another return has already been raised and is gaining support. We've added your vote to that idea to help show how useful it would be.
This idea is now in Gaining Support. If this would help in your workflow, feel free to vote or share your thoughts in the comments.

UK Tax - Automate Company Number, UTR number and Companies House authorisation code
We enter company number, company UTR number, director name when setting up client but why does this not get processed when preparing the company accounts and tax. We need to enter the company number, Company UTR number, Companies House authorisation code and director signing the return every time we want to use XERO tax. Surely there must be a way to simplify this so entering this information every time is a thing of the past.

Viewing full list of the Chart of Accounts from client's Xero organisation
The Chart of Accounts interface within the client's Xero organisation displays a limitation of 200 accounts per page. This necessitates frequent clicks of the 'Next' button, which can be inefficient. It is believed that the Xero Product Team could enhance this feature to allow the display of an unlimited number of accounts on a single page, mirroring the functionality currently available in the Chart of Accounts template within Xero HQ.
4 votesThanks for sharing in the community here. While we appreciate there are some organisation's that have a large number of accounts, the current 200 limit per page is sufficient for majority of organisations to see their full list of accounts and we don't have plans for extending this.

AU Tax - Automatic filing
Why can't Xero automatically file signed returns once the client has signed the document? Should be a fairly simple update for Xero to manage automatic filing instead of a person having to tick all and click file. Has this ever been considered? Knowing the suspend date is used to hold back a lodgement.
2 votesWe understand you are interested in a return filing automatically with ATO once your client has signed the return.For now, the process remains that a partner needs to click 'File' in Xero Tax after the client has completed their e-signature. This is because the client-signing process happens through a Portal and not in Xero Tax,, and the final action of lodging the return is designed to be a deliberate, conscious step taken by the practice. We have no immediate plans to change this workflow. The current separation of the signing and filing steps is an intentional part of our design, ensuring the final lodgment is a secure and authorised action from the tax agent.

UK Tax | Company & self assessment - Access in advance of the year end
Allow us to access Xero Tax in advance of the year end - company and self assessment - as it stands we cannot even set up the details/schedules we know we will need. In other software you could load up the information before the year end date had passed to give the client an estimate of tax liability as the year progresses. Furthermore, this allows you to load information as you receive it - e.g. Company Director dividends to self assessments as you complete company accounts

NZ Tax - IR7 ability to have a group schedule for allocating income and tax credits to partners
Make a schedule for allocating partner income and tax credits allocations with a total giving the ability to allocate income on the one page. Currently you have to go into each partner schedule. There is not always an even split of income and with many partner entities it is very time consuming.

Practice tools - Notification when Job/Client WIP Budget is exceeded
Currently estimates/quotes require a specific amount of time to be allocated against a specific task for a specific staff member. We need either notifications when total unbilled WIP for a client reaches x amount OR to be able to create a quote/estimate for a total dollar figure across all tasks and staff, and have notifications set when that figure (or % thereof) is reached. This feature is standard in most timekeeping programs and I'm shocked XPM doesn't have it.
1 voteThanks for raising your idea with us here, Elanor. We understand how notifications to draw attention when a budgeted figure is exceeded would be useful. For the time being we're watching the interest on this idea, but will share if there are any plans made around this.

Xero Tax (AU) - Warning to complete 13U tax losses and losses schedule
It would be beneficial for a warning to show to complete label 13U tax losses to be carried forward and/or when a losses schedule is required in a Trust or Company tax return when there has been a tax loss for the current year. This would reduce the risk that this label is inadvertently omitted.

Milage claims - GST on business kilometres
The ATO allows businesses to claim the GST on cents per kilometre based on the business Kilometres travelled. The Milage claim in Xero currently does not have any tax category which means milage claims aren't showing on the GST reports and have to manually added to the BAS otherwise businesses are missing out on GST if not added manually.
For example, If staff travel 100kms for business, then the claim should reflect the following
100 kms x rate of 88cents (FY2026) totalling to $88. the $88 is inclusive of GST of $8.1 voteHi Camilla👋, we understand the importance of being able to track and claim GST on business mileage and appreciate you letting us know this functionality isn't available within Xero. We know that not having this feature causes extra work to manually calculate the GST on mileage claims. While we don't have this feature at the moment, we’d like to acknowledge the workarounds of manually calculating the GST component of the mileage claim and entering this as a separate line item when processing the expense claim. We understand this isn't ideal and adds extra work, but it may help for now. We're still actively monitoring this idea to see how much support it gets from our customers 👀. As always, we'll continue to provide updates as we have them. Please continue to share your feedback and vote for the idea! ✅

Contacts - Edit payment options for a specific contact
It would be important to be able to edit the payment option available for a specific contact. Example: I have an international client that I would prefer if they did not get the option to pay their invoices with credit card. That would be useful to edit this within their contact settings so I don't have to manually change each of their invoices.
3 votesHey Fanie, thanks for your engagement and for sharing this excellent idea for managing customer payment options.
We've reviewed your suggestion to be able to set specific payment options within a contact's settings, and it's now open to gain support from other community members. We can definitely see how this would save time by removing the need to manually edit each invoice for certain clients, like your international customer example.
Along with votes, others can now comment to share additional detail on how this feature would give them more control and improve their invoicing workflow. 🙂
