Xero Tax (UK) | 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

Xero HQ - Bank connections page for all clients
Bank connections page allowing you to view all clients' bank feed statuses in one central location and easily update the connections for your clients in one go rather than navigating to each client’s account.
FreeAgent now has this ability, so will Xero follow suit and save hours if not days reconnecting bank feeds? https://www.freeagent.com/blog/industry-first-in-banking-1/

XPM - Need option to add NZBN field into custom reports
We are in the process of checking all Client details in XPM to ensure they are all complete and up to date. One of the checks that we were doing was to ensure that we had the NZBN numbers of clients recorded. However this appears to be the only client field that you are unable to select when creating a custom report!
Xero's response to my query was "you may like to add this in as a custom field and input in the NZBN in the custom field section for the clients which will then pull into the report" -…5 votesHi everyone, appreciate the feedback we've received since my previous updates and apologies for any confusion caused.
Checking back in with our product teams around this, there is a current issue that means some NZ practices are unable to add Business Number to their custom reports atm. This is something we intend to rectify and I'll move the idea back to Under review for now, and as soon as there are further updates on it, we'll share with you here.

XPM | Client - Business Name field
It'd be extremely helpful to have a field available for any type of client where a registered business name can be recorded, and if the business name is searched in the client list, the entity that the business name is recorded against shows up.
For example, if Joe Bloggs Pty Ltd owns the business name Bloggs Flowers, we could search for Bloggs Flowers in XPM and Joe Bloggs Pty Ltd would show up.
5 votesHi team, we want to share an update with you all here. As announced at Xerocon we have Xero Partner Hub which will combine all your practice tools into one experience. Along with the changes from the client list you will be able to add Organisation name and Legal/Trading name as columns which will be be searchable within the Client list.
So, where a client's Xero org is connected this data will pull through to the list and you'll be able to search by the client name, organisation name or legal/trading name. Find out more and prepare for the Xero Partner Hub on our website.

Practice Manager | Jobs Manager - Ability to add or delete columns
Practice Manager - Edit Jobs Manager screen to add or delete columns that are relevant to a practice The ability to add notes would be very helpful.
5 votesHI Sally, jumping back on your idea here our team are working on providing more flexibility to the info you view from Job Manager.
Right now, we're developing columns for Staff, Manager and Partners. Around the same time we expect to deliver these additions, we'll also enable you to hide detail you'd prefer not to view. So, you can decide and only see the information relevant for you when viewing Jobs.
We'll return to share more when this is available🙂

XPH Client Details - Hide Unnecessary fields when creating record.
Ability to remove unnecessary fields when setting up a client in XPM or ability to hide the blank fields after the setup so that they don't show up in the Client Details Tab. The purpose is to see the fields with details on them only and to make them look neat and tidy. Please see attached.
5 votesHey team, thanks for sharing your idea, and letting us know that having the ability to only have the necessary fields to complete for a client (based on Business Type etc) would be beneficial.
We've reviewed your idea and now it's up to the community to get behind and support it. Make sure you share your idea with any colleagues that this could benefit so they can add their vote too!

Xero Workpapers needs to be able zoom in on the attached documents instead of downloading to be able to view clearly

It'll be a phased release, starting with Australia and expanding to other regions in 2026. I'll keep you updated here on it's release.

NZ Tax - Separate [Payment] Summary field into year and RIT fields
Currently when working on provisional tax letter reports, the [Payment] Summary field is a big sentence including the year the calculation is based on, and the RIT
(eg. 2025 RIT of 5,669.16 (from IRD Statement) + 10% uplift).Filtering by this field is therefore not possible.
It would be great if the year and RIT were separate fields...
We could then filter by year to find out which clients' calculations are based on last year, and which are based on the year before.
It would also be useful to be able to filter by RIT.
4 votesThanks for sharing, Kathryn. Appreciate how separating the information in this field would be useful to you.
This isn't something we have plans of just yet but well get an understanding of the interest here.

AU Tax - AUSTRAC risk-rating tools for client profiles and reports
With all the new AUSTRAC reporting requirements coming soon is Xero adding any beneficial features to Practice Manager eg a Risk Rating box and any other reporting fields that might be helpful to be compliant with AUSTRAC and to reduce having to use additional software to keep track of these.
Are there any links to apps you suggest for this or what are other accountants using to assist with all this.4 votesHi Riki, thanks for raising this idea. We understand that having dedicated AUSTRAC compliance fields and risk assessment tracking within practice management workflows could be valuable as firms prepare for upcoming AML/CTF obligations.
The idea is to provide structured fields for capturing compliance information, such as client risk ratings, verification status, and review dates, helping practices manage these requirements directly within Xero Tax.
We encourage the community to vote on this idea if you'd find this compliance workflow improvement useful.

AU Tax | Trust Tax Returns - Multi business Worksheets
After discussion with Xero support it would be beneficial to have the option for multiple business worksheets added to the Trust Tax Returns.
4 votesHi everyone, thanks for sharing this idea. We understand you’re looking for a way to manage multiple business activities within a single Trust Tax Return.
The suggestion is to support multiple business worksheets within one return, making it easier to capture different business streams separately while keeping the tax file organised.
For now, some practices use external spreadsheets to consolidate and track this information before completing the return. We'll continue to track the interest on this idea here.

Practice Tools - Return to Group view after archiving a client
When you have a departing group, you have to now click on the group, select the entity, click on the 3 dots and select Archive.
This removes the entity from the group. You then have to start again and search the next entity from clients, and repeat the steps. as you cannot select back to take you back to the group.
In the old xero version. While in the client, you would select a drop down box while in the client and select archive. Then while still in the client, you could click on the Group and select the next…4 votesWe appreciate you submitting your idea and identifying key areas for improvement.

Staff - Notify staff member of access level change
When adding a staff member to a client Xero file with advisor access, previously I was able to notify the staff member. That wasn't an option which meant I needed to go and manually tell the team member that I've added them.
I like being able to choose if I want to notify them or not because if it's something holding up workflow I want them to know so they can continue working but if I'm just adding them to the team they'll expect to have access so I won't want to notify them in that scenario.
4 votesAppreciate your feedback on the beta experience, Sarah. We'll start to get a sense of the interest from the idea here and I'll be sure to share if there are any updates planned for notification of permission changes.

AU Tax- Ability to pull due date from ATO
Prefill - when we prefill a return from the ATO it brings in lots of information but doesn't update the due date for lodgement. The date currently appears to prefill from client details.
Can we please have Prefill bring in the ATO due date for the return?
4 votesHi Vicki, thanks for sharing this idea. We can see why this may be helpful for some users. Currently, you can import an 'Income tax lodgment status report' from ATO online services to bulk update the current tax returns due dates in the client details, but for now Xero does not pull this information from the ATO. We've moved this idea to gaining support and we'll monitor the idea for more support.
