When doing a CTR for a client that has an ARBN. There is no ARBN field to enter this detail for our client.
Can you please create a ARBN field and for this to pull from the clients details onto the CTR - as per the attached screenshot of the CTR21 votes -
Practice Manager | Report - Client Search
the function to search for clients needs to be easier (similar to the search function) when you are trying to run reports in XPM. It is tiring to go through 3,000 clients on a list to select the one I want to view as the function to run reports only allows me to type the first initial.
It takes us almost 5-6mins to run a simple report21 votes -

Xero Tax (UK) - Support for custom notes in Financial Statements
When preparing the statutory accounts in Xero Tax it would be great to have the feature to create your own "freeform note". For example, I need to add a secured debts note to the accounts however Xero does not currently provide this note amongst the list, therefore I need a freeform note where I can determine the heading and body of the note to feature in the notes to the financial statements. Currently the workaround is to declare the secured debts note as a line with the creditors which makes the presentation of the accounts weak.
21 votesThanks for everyone's contributions, here.
Things have moved on a lot since we last updated this idea - we recently launched Company Accounts, a new accounts production solution built directly within Xero which supports FRS 105 and FRS 1021a accounts for limited companies.
A lot of our customers feedback was incorporated into the development of this, particularly around notes.
We've updated a lot of disclosures for FRS 1021a and there's core text editor functions throughout these and the accounting policies which allows you to style the font, add bullets/numbering and add bespoke tables.
We'll continue reviewing this idea but building Company Accounts into Xero allows us to move much faster than we could before so we're going to continue focusing on specific note requests first so that we can save you as much time right out of the gates as possible, without having to invest time building your own notes.

Activity Statement - pre-populate W1 and W2
Pre-populate W1 and W2 fields in the Activity Statement when using an outside payroll program. This would save time and reduce errors.
21 votesHi community, thanks for engaging with us on how the prepopulation of W1 and W2 fields would improve efficiencies when preparing and filing tax with Xero.
We're currently working on prepopulation of these fields where these would be generated from the ATO prefill.
I'll be back to share another updates when this rolls out to partners on Xero Tax (AU).

Xero HQ - Filter staff list to active users only when assigning client access
Since the recent updates in Nov/Dec 2025, when adding staff access to Blue Xero clients in Xero HQ, the staff list now shows ALL staff members, including those who are inactive or no longer working. Previously, only active staff were displayed.
Having inactive and former staff appear in this list creates unnecessary clean-up work, as these users must be manually removed. Restricting the list to 'active staff only' would improve usability and reduce the risk of incorrect access being assigned.

Practice Manager - Keep user signed in when moving between the 'Clients' & 'Jobs' tabs
We are finding staff are regularly being logged out of XPM when they move between the 'Clients' tab & the 'Jobs' tab. When this happens it asks staff to log back in, but we are finding it is taking them to random different areas of XPM instead of back to where they were. i.e Setting up a new organisation page, in the middle of a client file etc. This appears to be a basic functionality issue that needs to be fixed.

Practice Manager - Link Jobs to Workpapers
Integrate XWPS with XPM - The XPM job should allow us to enter the period start and end date and this should link to XWPS along with the Partner, manager and staff. We should then be able to go into XWPS directly from that job in XPM. This would reduce having to enter data (period and staff) twice on XPM and XWPS

XPH - Allow time allocation budgets to roll over into recurring job
Would be great if you could add estimated time budgets to tasks at the recurring job level, rather than having to manually add them each time a new job is created from the recurring template.
Having the ability to set time budgets at the recurring job level would save time, particularly for annual accounts jobs where the estimated time is consistent.
19 votesHi everyone, appreciate all the engagement on this idea. We understand why having time budgets saved and carried over on recurring job templates could be valuable, especially for practices managing recurring work and monitoring team capacity.
The idea is to allow estimated time budgets set on a recurring job template to automatically flow through to each new job created from that template, reducing manual updates and helping teams track expected effort more consistently.
We'll keep track of the votes and feedbacks on this idea to continue gauge interests.

Xero Tax (AU) - History report for client changes
To have a "history" tab on a client that would show when someone has made a change to something (an address, a phone number/client details) along with who would have archived a client on the system.
The history tab would be a great aspect for support hub team members so they can ask that person if there is an issue or to see a date and time that this has happened to then liase with the client.
19 votesThanks for sharing your thoughts on this idea for a history tab in Xero Tax. We appreciate you explaining how tracking changes to client details could support your team's workflow.

AU Tax - Enable Rollover of Dividend and Interest Schedules for Non-Client Shareholders in Xero Tax
Enable Rollover of Dividend and Interest Schedules for Non-Client Shareholders in Xero Tax
19 votesHi everyone 👋 thanks for your continued feedback and for sharing your thoughts on this idea. While this idea is not currently on our development roadmap, we are always reviewing feedback to help us shape our product priorities. As a workaround for now, you can use the existing data roll-over function for client shareholders and then manually adjust the details for non-client shareholders. We'll be in touch with another update if there is any change to the status of this idea.

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.

XPM Staff permission - Practice Administration Permissions: You shouldnot have to give a staff member access to the full business setting menu to be able let them access the PLS/ELS reports. There should be a PLS/ELS Management only permission.

Job Manager: Bulk importing/creation of Jobs - to include Tasks with Estimated Time and Staff on Job
Bulk importing/creation of Jobs - to include Tasks with Estimated Time and Staff on Job.
I would like to do a bulk creation of the Job and also then bulk creation of Tasks and Estimated Time, and to allocate to Staff on the Job. Or an easy entry area to update the Job Task Estimated time so you don't have to enter into each job individually to enter this data.19 votes -
Document Packs: Mark as complete when missing signatures
It would be useful to have the ability to mark a document pack as complete even if some of the signatures are missing.
We have had occasions where trustees refuse to sign via document packs after the clients have already signed. We then have to print the partially signed documents and send hard copies for trustees to sign.
This leaves the document pack incomplete. The only option available is to cancel the pack, not ideal The ability to mark the pack as complete would be a great addition.

Report Templates - Add a button at the top of the report page to "Create Report Pack" to add any report to adviser report packages
Reports - Advisor Report functionality recommendations:
1. Ability to add any report (including customized/saved/published reports) to Advisor report packages. I only see a limited selection of reports from the Add Report dropdown. I feel like I should be able to add any report I want.
2. Ability to add separator pages easily (like "supplementary information" page) that don't have the company name/date in the header. This would also be useful for adding a letter / accountant's report on letterhead.
3. Ability to customize the cover page for wording, layout, logo, etc.
4. Ability to create new Advisor Report templates from…19 votes
