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.

Workpapers - add a calculator tool
Would be great if xero workpapers had a calculator function like blue xero
10 votesHi everyone, we're excited to share a significant update with you all. With the development of a new Xero Workpapers you'll have a new calculator tool (in the form of blank calculation sheets or light spreadsheet functionality), allowing you to perform basic calculations.
Until you get new Workpapers, the best option is to continue using external spreadsheets to perform your calculations and attach them as supporting documents.
We're initially rolling out in Australia, and we'll be sure to keep you updated on our progress as we this goes out to other regions.

User Roles: Workpapers - Ability to give 'read only' access
We have staff accountants who work in teams. Ideally, we want them to have the "Manager Role" but when that is the case they can only see Workpapers they have created.
We would prefer to have the option to give staff with "Manager Role" the ability to see and edit all Practice current and/or archived workpapers.
The alternative is to give them a Partner Role which has a lot of other access we don't really want them to have (ie restore/delete, etc).
19 votesHi team, I'm happy to let you know that we’re working on a new Xero Workpapers solution, within which practices will be able to grant staff the ability to see all workpaper packs for clients they have access to 😊
In addition, it offers more control over staff permissions within Workpapers, including the ability to restrict certain actions to just administrators or reviewers.
We've just started rollout to Australian partners with more regions to come in the new year. Thanks again for your feedback and we'll post another update to confirm when released to all Partners.

Workpaper - Ability to select defaults
Why do we need to have all of the 'Z do not use' sections appear when setting up a new pack that then need to be unticked? It would be better to have them unticked in the first place

Hi everyone, we're happy to say we've been looking into the Workpapers feature taking on board many of the ideas from our forums here.

We're starting with releasing this to our Australian partners with intentions to share wider in 2026. Along with information on our Xero blog and website, we'll keep you updated of it's release here.
