Xero Tax UK - management expenses support
Xero Tax no longer supports management expenses (eg for investment companies), which are a common requirement. This used to work fine. The workaround recommended by Xero Support is to incorrectly include management expenses as operating / trading expenses, then make them disallowable and include them separately as a management expense. This mess is all visible on the CT600 and needs fixing.
Thanks for raising this idea with us, and for clearly explaining the impact it has on your workflow. 🙂
We understand the need for Xero Tax to better support management expenses for investment companies, especially where the current workaround creates confusing or incorrect presentation on the CT600.
We’ve moved this idea to Gaining Support so we can track interest from the community and help our product team better understand the value of improving this area.
If others are affected by this as well, it would be helpful to hear more examples of how this impacts your filings and any risks or extra work it creates for your practice.
If there are any updates or plans made around this, we’ll share them here.
