Workpapers - Ability to add more users
Sometimes we have more than three people working on a job and currently Xero only allows for one preparer, manager and partner on a job. It would be good if we could have more flexibility in this area.

Clients - Main entity star indicator in groups
Following the XPM updates in November and December 2025, the star indicator within client groups that identified the main entity has been removed.
This indicator was heavily relied on to quickly identify the primary entity within a group. Please reinstate the star or an equivalent visual marker so the main entity can be clearly identified at a glance.
Thanks

XPM - Relationships - Add Share Class Type
The ability to add share class in relationships.
Currently you can only add the number of shares.
However, we have a lot of companies that have different share class types (A Class, B Class, ORD Class etc).
SUGGEST: adding a field under number of shares where you can type the share class (see attached example).This is a critical feature for our firm that is missing from XPM.
71 votesHi everyone, thanks so much for taking the time to share your feedback on adding share class types to XPM relationships 😊
We really appreciate you explaining how valuable this would be for managing clients’ corporate structures. We understand that many of you work with companies with multiple share classes, and having this captured in XPM could help make those workflows a lot smoother.
After reviewing this idea, we’ve updated the status to Not in the Pipeline. This means the product team has considered it, but it isn’t currently on the foreseeable roadmap. As a workaround, you can add a custom field for the share type.
In the meantime, the idea will remain open for votes, and we’ll keep monitoring community interest. We really value your input, and we’re grateful you continue to share your experiences with us.

Xero HQ | Document portal (without e-sign)
Ability to send a document to a client through Xero portal, without requiring a signature. I use the Document Packs to send tax returns and financials to clients. It would be good to be able to use this function to send packs to clients that don't need a signature.
For example: securely sending a notice of assessment to a client through xero, or sending copies of tax returns to clients that have already signed them in person.

XPH | Job Costs - Ability to move to another job
It would be great to be able to move job costs to another job in a similar way that you can move time sheets. More often than not costs are captured on an incorrect job and it is a "pain" to delete this and then to re-capture on the correct job.

NZ Tax - Correct amount when provisional tax unpaid & provisional date has passed
If a client fails to pay the first installment of provisional tax why is it then added to the next installment and then P1 shows as nothing due. This is incorrect, the amount due at P1 is still the same (per the IRD), the debt at P1 has not moved to P2. What happens for client's who have RIT over $60k?

Workpapers - Inter-Entity
Xero workpaper functionality that can connect to more than one Xero file to reconcile inter-entity loan accounts, or confirm rental income and expenses, or Div 7A interest and expense, etc.
Eg: Debit loan in Company A, Credit loan in Trust B - can link both totals to see at a glance the loans match on both debit and credit sides.
Entity A pays related-party rent to Entity B - link B's income and A's expenses to see at a glance that the amounts are correct on both sides in both files65 votesHi everyone, thanks for sharing your feedback on this idea 🙂
We can see the value in this, managing inter-entity loans more easily across entities in Workpapers, especially where you’re trying to match balances and reduce manual cross-checking. We’re moving this idea to Gaining Support so others can vote and add their use cases too. The more detail you can share about how you’d use this in practice, the easier it is for our team to understand the impact and prioritise future improvements.
This is something that’s on our radar, but we don’t have a timeframe to share right now. We’ll continue to monitor the feedback here and will update this thread if there’s more to share.

Practice Manager | Quick Time Entry Job Status option
It would be a great help if we could update status for a job as and when the timesheet is done.
At the moment we go to each job and update the status at the end of the day. In my opinion this would save lot my time hovering around.
I have attached a screenshot in pdf to better explain.65 votes -

Xero Tax (UK) | Company - Liquidation & Cessation Accounts and CT Returns
Please add the functionality to set a cessation of trade date for a company in liquidation or in the insolvency process to allow for accounts and corporation tax returns to be produced from the last year end to the date of cessation of trade/insolvency.
This will enable Accountants to produce these closing accounts and CT returns from HMRC and so offer a one stop shop and earn more revenue.
63 votesHi team, thanks for your feedback here. We recognise how important this capability is for practices managing company closures, and appreciate everyone who's explained the impact of not being able to prepare and file final accounts and Company Tax returns directly from Xero Tax.
While work isn't underway just yet this is on our team's roadmap. We’ll share further updates as this gets picked up.

Xero HQ - View connected apps by client
Xero apps - In Xero HQ we use to have the apps under the explorer tab, to see the most popular apps and what clients are using them. It was highly useful to advise clients when an app was to cease or we were introducing an alternative to see who was using it.
63 votesAppreciate the interest and hearing the use you have in seeing integrated apps your clients have connected.
As some will have received communication of some time back - we made the hard decision to retire Explorer in Xero HQ from 12 April, 2023.
Right now, if you'd like to see the apps a client has connected you can open the Xero organisation, go to settings and select Connected apps.
While this is something we may consider developing elsewhere in Xero HQ down the road, it isn't in the teams plans right now. We'll continue to track interest here, and let you know if there is any change surrounding this to share. Thanks

AU Tax - Depreciation Schedules unlinked
Ability to have separate and unlinked depreciation schedules available in Xero Tax a still print a depreciation report would be very useful. At times there is no requirement to link a depreciation schedule to a particular area with the tax return (it may not be relevant for the current year however is required in future years) or the schedules relates to two areas within the tax return. I have circumstances where rental assets has differing ownership percentages which causes a nightmare using the current depreciation processes.

AU Tax - Create CGT worksheet from Trust Income Schedule (TIS) for non-individual returns
I'm completing my first Trust ITR for 2024, and inputting info into the new Trust Income Schedule.
The Non-PP income flows through to Item 8, but the Capital Gain isn't flowing through to Item 21...
WHY do you insist on SO MUCH double entry??!?
It's not even throwing an error, like the 'Managed Fund' schedule does in an Individual ITR??
58 votesAppreciate the conversations here. The other idea linked in this conversation that we delivered on was the ability for information to flow from the Trust Return(TRT) to Individual Returns(ITR) which is facilitated with the Trust Income Schedule.
We appreciate wanting to see further improvement in this space, and this is something we have intentions of looking at in the future, however we don’t have any timeframe right now. I’ll be sure to share any news with you all here.

Document Packs - Text box for documents within a pack
Xero Sign: Add Template for sending packs and Add a text box option for documents within a document pack:
Is there any way to set up an 'Email Template' message for when we send out our packs? I can't find anywhere to do this is xero or Xero HQ or Ask. We would like to set up a standardised message for your annual accounts...
Is there a way to enter a 'text' field into a document as well as a signature?
We send out some authority forms to clients that needs them to add their bank a/c details & a/c…58 votesHi everyone, thanks for your support in the idea here. Reading over there are 2 separate requests in the one thread
- Ability to create a default email template for sending document packs
- A text box on single documents in a pack
We have another idea that's been started around the default email template across here and I invite all those interested to add their votes.
For the thread here I've updated the title slightly for the Text box on individual documents so we can track the interest in each of these separately.

Practice Manager | Client - Copy a client (including all contacts)
To be able to duplicate a contact, therefore not having to retype in the address, phone number and all other details. You would just need to rename the client and change the IRD number etc before saving. This would be a huge time saver.
58 votesThanks for starting the idea here, Renee.
Just to clarify, when you say ‘duplicate a contact’ would this be; the ability to duplicate an entire client (including all its contacts), to duplicate a contact within an existing client, or duplicate a contact from one client to another?
If the last, we have a similar idea over here that I can join you in with. 🙂 -
Practice tools | Tax Statements & Payments - Indicator for roll forward notes
For notes made in Tax Payments: these need to be split into 2 areas, (1) notes pertaining to that provisional installment and, (2) notes that will continue to roll forward.
It is crucial that even if the installment date has passed, the notes are still visible. Also from the main Tax Payments screen we need an indicator on the client row to show that the client has an active note (with the ability to archive a note as well).
