Personal Tax (UK) | Spouse link to automatically update joint income
A link between spouses to automatically update joint income so as to avoid posting the same information on each return and reduce the time spent on each return
29 votesHi everyone, thanks for the continued engagement and support in this idea.
While this is something we'll keep reviewing for Xero Tax(UK) there are no plans for adding spouse links right now.
If there's any development planned for this in Xero Tax(UK) we'll be sure to share an update with you all, on this idea.

Practice tools| Staff permissions - Granular permissions to timesheets
I would like to place feedback around user settings, The user permissions are limiting and weird ones seem to go together. Currently all staff can see everyone's timesheets, we we're advised to remove the financial setting under financial privilege's to remove staff access to timesheets, in doing so staff could no longer see budgets on jobs, therefore we had to give all users back that permission, in effect allowing all staff access to everyone's timesheets it just doesn't make sense.
It would be really handy if we could assign a user group to a staff member instead of having to…

Xero Tax | Return - Re-arrange/Re-sort Line Items
Would love to be able to re-arrange line items in Tax Returns as we have everything listed in alphabetical order. In HandiSoft, we could click and drag lines.
Example situation:
Shares in 2020
BOQ
CBA
WBCShares in 2021
ANZ
BOQ
CBA
WBCTo add in ANZ, we need to delete BOQ, CBA and WBC, add in ANZ and then re-add BOQ, CBA and WBC. Very time consuming if there are multiple lines to add.

Workpapers - Highlight accounts that need attention
Would it be possible to integrate a feature where the workpapers notify the user that there may be Xero accounts that have balances in the relevant year that have not pulled through to any of the workpapers being used (say for example because the report codes mapping for a new account has not been set up properly)?
29 votesThanks so much for everyone's support in this idea. I'm excited to share we have good news! The team's been working hard on a brand new Workpapers solution where you'll be able to highlight accounts that need attention. 😊
New Workpapers offers a seamless compliance workflow, making it easy to identify discrepancies with a rich working trial balance and in-built collaboration.
Starting to rollout in Australia, and we'll be following with release to other regions in 2026. We'll be sure to keep you updated on the progress here as we get closer to the release dates for other regions.

Practice tools | Clients - Return to group view when navigating back from a client
Since the recent update in November/December 2025, when navigating back using the back arrow from a specific client, the system returns to the full client list rather than the client’s group.
It would be more helpful if the back arrow returned users to the relevant group view instead of the full client list.

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

Report Builder Fields - Include fields from Tax Return Data
It is not currently possible to pull a report of all clients that have Franked distributions (field U) and Franking credit (field D) on their tax returns. As the ATO has released a new area of focus on franking credit trading rules known as the '45 day holding period rule' we would like an easy way to track and highlight companies that could
28 votesAppreciate you raising the idea in the forums here. We'll continue to get a sense of the interest in being able to pull these Franking fields with the report builder.
If there are any plans made for enabling this we'll be sure to share with you all here.

NZ Tax - Transfer donation rebate to multiple years, tax types and IRD numbers
Having the option to transfer a donation rebate to multiple tax types, tax years and IRD numbers would be great. For example, transferring credit to terminal tax and also provisional tax or tax owing from a previous year.

XPM - Audit Trail for jobs in XPM
When using Xero Practice Manager (XPM) for job management, it’s incredibly difficult to maintain visibility because there’s no audit trail or history log for key actions like:
- When a job was created or reassigned
- Who changed the job’s due date or status
- When a job’s responsibility moved from one team member to another
This lack of transparency makes it almost impossible to track accountability or performance accurately.
Why is this so important?
As a firm, we track job completion and lodgement performance, but without a history log, we can’t see whether a job was reassigned after the due date or…27 votesThanks for sharing your feedback on introducing audit trail functionality to XPM.

Xero HQ - Ability to have multiple tax agents for STP lodgements
We use multiple tax agent numbers across our business yet when we lodge STP reports via the client's organisation, we can only use one tax agent number for all clients as Xero only allows for one tax agent number to be set in Xero HQ.
This is causing many issues, including staff and clients inadvertently updating tax agent details in the STP lodgment area on their own file, which is then updating the tax agent in HQ for all STP lodgements.
It is also causing issues with tax agent appointments/linking, where the client has to appoint one agent number for…

Xero HQ | Staff - Ability to bulk assign access for 'File MTD VAT Return'
No option to select 'File MTD VAT Return' in bulk for clients when setting up a new staff member in Xero HQ. After assigning the clients in bulk for a new staff member you have to then go into each client individually to give this permission.

Practice Manager - Ability to archive Client Groups
Currently we are only able delete Client Groups in XPM. That means there are 'inactive' groups when the clients move on making it harder to see how many Groups you are actually working with.
It would be great to be able to Archive instead. This would keep the Group Count 'clean' and you can still report on Groups

Staff Report - Client & organisation access
Currently when a staff member leaves we can remove their access on the clients we subscribe to Xero but can't remove access where the client subscribes directly and has invited them in.
For security purposes, it would be good if the practice admin could easily run a report on the leaver showing all the clients they have access to. You can do this on screen however we want the client managers to get in touch with their relevant clients as they have the relationship.
I recently had a staff leaver with c100 clients I couldn't remove access to myself and…
27 votesHi team, we appreciate the engagement through this idea about managing staff access.
To provide an update on how this currently works with the new unified staff and client experiences - When removing a staff member from your practice, the following organisation access is also removed:
- Linked to active clients
- Linked to archived clients
- Owned by the practice
We're also looking into further enhancements to this flow to make the removal of org access optional. I'll share another update to confirm once this is implemented. Thanks

Xero Tax (AU) - Ability to re-order pages before printing
Would be good if there was an option to reorder the pages in a tax return, primarily to be able to bring the tax estimate to the front page of the tax return as that tends to be the key information the client wants to see and it is buried at page 3 or 4 of the tax return when printed.
