NZ Tax - Generate all provisional tax payment letters prior to the due date passing
IRD has $ for 3 provisional tax payment dates, however the Tax Payments listing only shows the next provisional tax payment due and misses the 2nd and 3rd ones until the date of each provisional tax payment has passed. It would be more accurate to have all tax payments showing on their due date regardless of the date of viewing.

Xero Tax(AU) - Separate user permissions for 'Mark as Approved' and 'Out to Sign'
It doesn't make sense that these are part of the same privilege checkbox.
Marking something as Approved is something that a senior person (manager/partner) is responsible for.
Marking something as Out to Sign is something that an administration person is responsible for.
Options are:
Give the admin person the privilege and they can approve something they shouldn't be able to (risk to firm).
Not give the admin the privilege and the manager has to log back into Xero Tax to mark it as out to sign after the admin person has packaged it up and sent it out (waste of…29 votes -
Workpapers - Carry existing packs forward when creating new ones
The entire workpapers function is inefficient and burdensome. It would be much better to have packs carry forward when creating new packs so that you don't have to add all the notes and work papers back each time. When you roll a work paper pack, having to check & uncheck all the irrelevant sections is a waste of time that would also be alleviated by just being able to roll the prior period pack. The ability to use excel sheets with linked data to the accounts in Xero would be greatly beneficial. Another aggravating and time consuming issue is not…
15 votesHi team! We're happy to announce that the ability to roll forward existing workpaper packs, URL's and Notes is coming with our new Xero Workpapers. This new solution leverages permanent documents, and has improved data preservation to help minimise the manual rework each year, and get a head start with rolling over key information from previous years.
We're planning ongoing enhancements to this new solution to ensure your workflow is robust and intuitive. We're starting release to our Australian partners now, and other regions will have access from early 2026. We'll keep you updated as the launch for this goes wider.

AU Tax - Rental Schedule Apportionment
Currently the apportionment percentage for the rental is calculated for all income and expenses. However, in reality this is not always the situation. Sage has the ability to change the apportionment of each expense individually as well which is very useful, time-saving and error reducing.
117 votesHi community, we hear you on the challenges presented by the current process, and having to manually calculate this outside Xero.
Though we don't have immediate plans in the roadmap, this is a feature we'll take into future planning, and we'll be sure to update you all here of any progress.
For now, the best way to handle this is to continue to calculate the apportionment outside of Xero and then manually enter the figures. Thanks

Practice Manager | Job Manager - Bulk assign staff via import
Good day,
Would it be possible to allow us to import the staff assignment via the CSV import file rather than assigning staff afterwards. Same for the template, category and job state.
Regarding the bulk staff assignment function, could we add filters and have the columns sort when you click on the column headings of this section please.
These two short comings is creating a huge delay in annual job creation for routine jobs.
No we cannot use re-curing jobs as XPM does not have the functionality yet to choose the date on which the re-curing job is created, you…

Xero tax (UK) | Sole Trader Accounts - Ability to generate a report without a balance sheet
When using Xero tax for sole trader self assessments, and importing the Xero sole trader accounts, it would be so useful to generate reports that don't include the balance sheet, i.e. it would be better if one could edit the reports according to an individual requirements/reporting needs.
78 votesHi community, thanks for continuing to share interest in this idea with us here.
As many will be aware we've developed a new Accounts production tool for Xero Tax available to all Xero Partners.
Currently within Personal Tax there remains the ability to directly import a Profit & Loss into the self-employment worksheet. However, with an outlook of further developing our new Accounts production tool, Sole trader accounts will be something we eventually work into this.
Right now, there are a few other things in the pipeline before we get to this, but I'll be sure to keep you updated here of development for Sole trader accounts.

Xero Tax - Archive Draft tax returns
Currently, Xero only lets us archive the returns that are already filed (or are in the filed status).
There are scenarios, when the clients come in to do the tax return- we need more information and client does not respond. We do have an option of suspending the returns- however, these returns will still be left in draft making the draft tax returns list unnecessarily longer.
Xero is not currently allowing us to archive the returns that are in the draft status. Either we have to mark the return as 'filed' before it can be archived or these have to…

Xero Tax(AU) - Tab for Returned
Would we be able to have a tab in Xero Tax between 'To Sign' and 'To File' - called 'Returned' - so that any ITR or AS that has been e-signed is moved across into that tab?

XPM - Hide Archived Contacts
New XPM Contacts that link to multiple clients shows archived contacts when search. This is confusion to know which contact to select when the client has archived entities, if use incorrect one then not using 1 main contact. Currently having to select each one till find the main contact with current contact info.
Need to block out archived contacts from showing or atleast show a symbol against them so know not to select it.6 votes -
AU Tax - Depreciation Schedules unlinked
Ability to have separate and unlinked depreciation schedules available in Xero Tax a still print a depreciation report would be very useful. At times there is no requirement to link a depreciation schedule to a particular area with the tax return (it may not be relevant for the current year however is required in future years) or the schedules relates to two areas within the tax return. I have circumstances where rental assets has differing ownership percentages which causes a nightmare using the current depreciation processes.

Workpapers - Ability to set period that workpaper is run across
Workpapers to run for periods (not just years) and for periods ending not on a month end.
The majority of my clients have a year end with 5 April. At the moment i would only be able to run the work papers to 31 March. I also have other clients with year end dates throughout the year.
In addition to this, I can only run the workpapers for a full year. What happens if a business ceases. Often we need to run a set of accounts, and therefore workpapers, for a shorter/longer period.

Practice Manager | Client Reporting - 'Date Added' field
A 'Date Added' field would be great, to show when a client was entered into an XPM account.
It would also be good to add this as a client report criteria, so you can filter dates.

Report Templates - Allow Xero blue client access to Report Templates in organisation
Client access to Report Templates
In Xero HQ as a partner we have the ability to create report packages however it is only for use within our practice, it would be really helpful if we had the option to share these with our clients.95 votesHi everyone, thanks for your votes and comments on this idea. We’ve looked into this request, and at this stage, we won’t be moving forward with it.
Report templates are a beneficial feature designed for our Xero Partners managing multiple clients.
We do understand how important it is to have a consistent and repeatable reporting process. A good alternative is to use the Management Report within the client’s organisation. It allows you to build a customised report pack that can be saved and reused. You’ll find it under the Reports section, and there’s a Xero Central article that steps through how to set one up.
Thanks again for your feedback—it helps shape how we continue to improve reporting in Xero.

Xero tax (AU) - Roll forward Tax Returns
Tax returns be rolled forward annually to assist with workflow tracking and planning.
38 votesHi everyone, we have a new Tax Manager that's currently in beta and with a small group of users. As part of Tax Manager there's 'Ready to start' which lists annual income tax returns from the most recently completed tax year, generated using your practice’s client list and data downloaded directly from the ATO.
We'll keep everyone updated here of when this rolls out wider to all AU Tax users. Thanks
