AU Tax - Add a Next button to the Managed Fund distribution
Add a next button to the managed fund distribution page in xero tax.
When a client has 10 or 15 managed fund distributions that have imported from the pre-fill you have to go back and click on the next one and it is hard to keep track that you have reviewed every single one. (And deleted the 0's this is a separate idea)
If there was a next button so you can just start at the top and work your way through all the distributions to review them it would make this much easier.

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

Notification of acceptance of a Xero subscription transfer
We occasionally have issues when transferring Xero subscriptions with the notification being missed by the other party. Is it possible for the subscriber to receive an email when the transfer period is due to expire and the other party has not accepted?
1 voteHi Jean, I see you've posted this under Xero HQ - Out of interest is this where you'd like to be able to see this sort of notification?

Xero Tax(AU) | Hiding TFN - Also hide TFN in Distribution Income Section
In Individual income tax returns, where an individual received a trust distribution, the trust name appears to show the Trust's TFN in the name in the trust distribution income section. It will be great if the hiding TFN feature includes the hiding of TFN in this distribution income section as well.

Permissions - Additional Staff permissions for editing recurring jobs
Due to issues with staff editing recurring jobs but not updating the job name and/or description I would like to see the staff permissions for recurring jobs amended to have a dropdown list so we can limit staff access to editing recurring jobs but leave access to view, create and delete in the same way as with clients.

Xero HQ: archived clients with subscriptions.
Be able to export list of archived clients, especially if they still have xero subscription that was missed to cancel. So that these can be easily reviewed.
We are paying Xero for no reason at all.
Also the ability to bulk change those archived clients eg cancel subscriptions
Perhaps when clients are archived there should be something to flag to remember to do something with the subscription eg cancel or transfer.
Thanks

AU Tax - Consistent rollover of percentages in individual deductions
There is a difference in functionality between D5 and D8 in the AU individual tax return form. When deductions are entered in D5, the default deductible percentage is 100%, and whatever percentage is entered here (eg 40% phone) is rolled over when the tax return rolls over to the next year.
In D8, the default deductible percentage is 0% (inconsistent with D5, easy to miss when quickly completing a tax return, requires you to manually type '100%' every line item - why would you enter a 0% deduction?) and the manually entered percentage does not roll over to the next…

Xero HQ fixed assets - Lookup to ATO Effective Life
In the Fixed Assets module, it would be helpful to have the option to link to the ATO's Effective Life tables when adding a new asset. This feature would allow users to search for the Effective Life of an asset. It should also be possible to overwrite this value, allowing you to input a different number of years if they choose to self-assess. Having access to the ATO's guidance would be extremely helpful.

NZ Tax - Customise declaration
It would be good to be able to customise the Declaration that is just above the signing line in the Tax Returns. The default wording is quite broad, and it we would prefer to be able to customise it to reduce our risk. Clients are not always truthful in reporting all income, and we need to protect ourselves.
4 votesThanks for sharing this idea with the community. We can understand why being able to add specific wording to the client declaration would be useful.
This idea is open for voting and comments from the community, and we'll be keeping an eye on its progress to gauge interest.
In the meantime, while it's not possible to edit the declaration on the return itself, you can add your own custom text and disclaimers to a cover letter that you send with the tax return. This might help you manage the risk you mentioned.
You can learn how to create your own templates for this here: Customise the cover letter for a tax return.

NZ Tax - Auto apply correct tax rate for Trust if over threshold
When preparing 2025 financial statements in Xero, will Xero be implementing a system to allow for varying tax rates for Trust's?
For example, 2024 Trustee tax rate at 33%, however the 2025 Trustee tax rate may be 39% or 33% depending on the Trustee Income, and if it is under $10,000.
It would be great if Xero were to implement a system to allow for this.Otherwise, a manual work around will be required, which could create human error.
I'm sure all tax practitioners across the country are hoping for an update from Xero.

UK Personal Tax | Include top slicing relief on schedules of data
Please can you include the workings (which are long and complicated) for top slicing relief on an insurance bond gain in the "schedule of data" report which I find to be very basic compared to what my previous tax software provider included. Otherwise it is fiddly and time consuming to check this manually.
1 voteThanks for your feedback and sharing with us through the idea here, Zoë.
It'll be good to get a gauge of the community support through your idea here. We don't have any plans for adding top slicing relief on an insurance bond gain atm, but we'll share if there are any changes for this made.

AU Tax - Improve the validation error experience
I had a validation error CMN.ATO.DISTBENTRT.000013 generated in an SMSF tax return.
When I clicked on the validation error it took me to a specific trust income schedule (number 10 of 18), which had several fields highlighted. The error says that there must be a number in any of the fields A B D U and so on - this schedule met this condition.
After much wasted time trying to re-enter fields, checking there were no blank spaces, deleting and re-entering all fields, deleting and re-entering the whole schedule, I contacted support.
It turns out the error was actually generated…26 votesHi Vicki, we're grateful for your detailed suggestion of how to improve the validation error linking and highlighting experience in AU Tax.
We'll continue to monitor the level of support this idea receives from the community. Thanks again for your contribution.

Xero Tax - Allow manual allocation of R&D expenditure for long accounting periods
When inputting R&D figures for a period of account longer than 12 months (i.e. where 2x corporation tax returns are needed), we are unable to put specific R&D expenditures in a specific corporation tax periods. This is an issue with overseas workers where the periods are pre and post 1 April 2024, and where expenditure is only eligible in one of the periods. As currently, the expenditure is pro-rated, this means that non-qualifying expenditure is being brought into one of the periods.
Is it possible to create a feature which allows for the expenditure to be split correctly between the…

Document Packs - ability to add invoice from Xero business edition directly to document pack
Ability to export an invoice created in Xero business edition to a document pack.
For example, if I prepare a BAS or tax return for a client and send it to them in a document pack along with my invoice, I have to export the invoice from Xero and save it, and then add it to the document pack.
It would be beneficial if there was an option in the invoice screen to add the invoice to a document pack, similar to adding a completed tax return from Xero Tax to a document pack.
3 votesHi Rebecca, thanks for taking the time to share your idea for adding an invoice directly into a Document Pack. We can see how this would streamline the process and save valuable time, removing the manual steps of downloading and re-uploading invoices when sending documents to your clients.

Practice Manager - Ability to associate a CURNN from a Job to multiple clients
see CX0015898344
I was told that when you create a job for client A, you can only create CURNN for client A.We are unable to make CURNN for client A's association - such as their spouse, their business (company, trust, partnership, etc) or any client in client A's group.
To do a CURNN for client A's spouse, i would have to create a job for the spouse then create the CURNN.
1 voteThanks for your feedback here, Christopher. Appreciate you have also shared detail around this with our specialists at Xero Support, however just highlighting that ideas in the forums here are for the community to support any detail you can provide through the idea directly here will also help other community members understand and support your ideas.
We don't have any immediate changes around this planned, for now you'll want to add a New CURNN to each individual client. We'll continue to keep an eye on the community support for this here,.
