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.1 voteHi 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 - Allow bulk EFT Report retrieval
In XERO Tax - when retrieving the EFT reports for monies into Trust. Currently XERO only allows one at a time. If you have 30 or 40 fee from refund returns in one day, you never get the reports in time. Other softwares allow a bulk download that shows (eg - on 20 April 2026) this many deposits were made to your Trust Account and these are the clients they are in relation to. This is one snapshot for one day. It is an impossible function as it stands for big practice.
1 voteThanks Meschel for raising this. We hear that managing EFT reports individually can be time-consuming.
The idea of bulk exporting EFT details in one action could help improve efficiency for firms handling larger workloads. This has now been moved to Gaining Support so we can continue tracking demand and share it with our product team.

Job Manager - Bulk Update suggested Notification Process
Incorrect Bulk Update and Suggested Notification Process
Example Scenario:
On Job Manager, a staff member accidentally selected all active jobs and changed their status from “In Progress” to “Completed” using the bulk update feature.
Impact:Over 150 jobs were marked as completed.
Workflow visibility was disrupted, and deadlines were missed because jobs disappeared from active lists.Root Cause:
Bulk update permissions were too broad.
No audit trail or alert triggered when job states changed.Recommended Controls:
Trigger Email Notifications for Job Status Changes/Setting up email alerts
Detecting incorrect bulk updates
Reverting changes quickly Options
Require confirmation before applying changes to…3 votesThanks for sharing this idea with us. We appreciate you outlining how safeguards around bulk updates could help teams manage workflows in XPM.
This idea is now in Gaining support status, meaning the community team have reviewed it and it's open for community support through votes and comments. We encourage others who'd find this helpful to add their votes and share their experiences.
In the meantime, it is worth noting that a custom job notification for job state change could be created in your XPM account if you haven't done so already.

Xero Ask - a universal login link for ask queries
If my client is tech challenged and cannot figure out how to follow a signature request link from your emails, I send them the link to https://portal.xero.com/ and they can usually manage it from there. This appears to work for document packs too.
Can we please have a similar universal login link for ask queries?

Thank you for your interest in having multicurrency available on Xero’s Ledger plans.
We’ve carefully considered this idea as part of our ongoing product reviews. At this stage, enabling multicurrency for Ledger plans is not in our development pipeline, and there are no plans or timelines to introduce this feature for Ledger.
We appreciate your feedback and will continue to review our product roadmap based on customer needs and market demand. If the status of this idea changes in the future, we’ll be sure to provide an update.
Thank you again for your suggestion and for helping us shape the future of Xero. 🙂

XPM - End date column into Recurring jobs view
Add the end date column into Recurring jobs view so that you see the jobs that are not active and sort by that column. The job may have a current next date but it has actually been ended with an end date and you cannot tell from the main view without clicking into the job.

XPM/XHQ - Centralised user management for Apps/Add-ins.
We need a centralised user management solution for add-ins/apps. What is in place now is too unwieldy once you have more than a few clients. Apps are an important part of the Xero proposition and add tremendous value to the platform. The solution would allow clients and practices to manage users across Xero and the apps enrolled for, which would save significant amounts of time and be much more efficient than what is in place right now i.e. having to set-up users indivdually in each app.

We understand this change could be a time saver and we have moved this to Gaining Support 💃 We encourage you to share this with friends and colleagues so they can vote and comment and get this idea some traction wiht the Product team.

Xero HQ | Insights - Colour Adjustment to Bank Reconciliation Status
It would be beneficial for the Bank Reconciliation Status to return positive insights as well. I have attached a rough adjustment for the 'Up to date' flag, and I feel the slight CSS value adjustment here makes it more visible that the Bank Reconciliation is in fact up to date.
2 votesThanks for sharing your idea, and letting us know the changes that matter most for you. We appreciate you highlighting how visual improvements to the 'Up to date' status in Xero HQ Insights could make positive reconciliation statuses easier to spot.

XPH - Add 'Practice Information' to the Main Menu Bar
Currently, Practice Information (which contains key firm-wide settings, addresses, and details) appears to be missing a direct link in the main navigation menu (the left-hand sidebar).
Issue: Users must navigate through multiple menus or settings screens to find and update core firm details.
Request: Please add a clear, direct menu item for Practice Information to the main vertical menu bar for easy and immediate access.
Implementing these changes would be a significant quality-of-life improvement for all XPM users. Thank you for considering this feature request!

Practice Manager | Costs - Drop down for standard costs
When entering a cost create a dropdown selection menu of standard costs that are setup in settings. Current system requires a prompt to type in the correct cost to appear and fill out preset cost and charge figures.
Also include a drop down to select staff member entering the cost. This would be a time saver for mileage and expense claims so you could filter a disbursement report quickly and submit to save double working.
2 votesAppreciate your feedback on how this would help when entering costs, Stewart. We don't have plans for this right now, but we'll start to get an idea of the interest here.

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.

Xero Files | Report: Ability to see user access
Ability to identify which Xero files staff members who leave the firm have direct access to the client Xero file as opposed to being granted access from a firm level. This way, before you delete the user from Xero HQ/Blue you can check to see if any clients need to be contacted to update to invite the firm rather than a specific employee.
