Workpapers - Rearrange support documents in workpaper
Support documents uploaded to a workpaper are listed at the bottom of a workpaper in the order they are uploaded in, it would be a handy feature to be able to reorganise uploaded documents as needed for ease of review and keeping items in say account or alphabetical order.
I'm excited to share a major update that addresses this feedback directly. At Xerocon in September 2025, we announced a new strategic partnership with BGL, a leader in compliance and practice software. Together, we are building a new, deeply integrated Workpapers solution that will be embedded directly within Xero Practice Manager (XPM) and Xero Tax. This new solution is central to our compliance and practice tools roadmap and is designed to provide a seamless experience, leveraging BGL’s expertise in document management. We are pleased to confirm that the ability to add, rename, and reorder supporting documents is a key feature of this new BGL-powered Workpapers solution. This functionality is already available in BGL’s core product, which forms the foundation of our new offering. This means you'll soon have the flexibility to organize your documents as you work, without the frustrating workarounds you've mentioned.The new solution will also enable direct data flow from Xero ledgers into Workpapers and then into Xero Tax, reducing manual entry and improving accuracy for your compliance workflows.

When the workpapers are printed to PDF the supporting documentation all appears at end of the document. It would be great it is appeared after the workpaper for that item. Ie for Bank account you have the reconciliation workpaper and next page is the supporting copy of the bank statement.
