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.
