Clients - Summary of workpapers status within the client view
This isn't a workpapers-specific solution, but the ability to see the status of workpapers in the clients section of the PartnerHub could have great development opportunities. It would be very useful to give a quick snapshot of the client and if it was also available as a column in the global client view you could filtering by work completed/ in progress/ not yet received. Furthermore, giving developers access to the API for this field would also open up other opportunities.
5 votesHi team, we appreciate you sharing with us on how we could improve the use of new Workpapers and managing client for you here.
This is an idea we have close eyes on and will be sure to share any updates with you all here.
In the meantime, please remember to share the idea with any colleagues you feel could benefit from this to and they can votes and support on this here. Thanks

NZ Tax - Correct amount when provisional tax unpaid & provisional date has passed
If a client fails to pay the first installment of provisional tax why is it then added to the next installment and then P1 shows as nothing due. This is incorrect, the amount due at P1 is still the same (per the IRD), the debt at P1 has not moved to P2. What happens for client's who have RIT over $60k?

Xero Practice Hub - Option to email directly from Client list
Having the ability to email a client directly from the 'Search clients' area to avoid opening the client file.
If you search a client & click on the email in the column, there is a pop up just showing the email address again. This should be interactive so you can click on it & an automatic pop out to a new email opens, using your default program. Outlook in my case.
If I need to email multiple clients in a row, this method would be faster than opening each client file to automatically email then going back to search again,…4 votesHey LInda, thanks for raising this idea with us. Having the option to email a client directly from the client list in XPH is not something we have planned but we have moved this idea to Gaining Support so we can monitor votes and comments. Now all you need to do is share this with friends and colleagues to add their votes and comments!

Partner Program - Eliminate 60-day Subscription Requirement
This may not gain much traction with established partners, but for those of us who are new to Xero and are working to establish a business, the requirement to sign on a client within 60 days is a problem. At one time, the requirement was 90 days but was shortened to 60 in 2017.
It should, however, not exist at all.
Note that your closest competitor has no such requirement.What management may not realize is that it comes across as a threat from the beginning, which frankly stopped me from signing up for the program for a while. Now…

AU Tax - Detailed breakdown of prefilled Allowances from STP data
I refer to
CX0018002998this https://productideas.xero.com/users/6251636716-christopher-le was wrongly merged to another idea.
I paste it again
When the label 2 of an ITR is prefilled, I want to be able to detail or write a breakdown of what that allowance amount consist of from the client's STP income statement. e.g.
- Laundry ###,
- Motor vehicle ###,
- Telephone ###at the moment the function just inputs the total allowance figure shown in prefill
2 votesHi Christopher, appreciate you sharing your thoughts on this. While STP prefill helps reduce manual entry, we understand there are times where additional detail is needed to complete the return.
Having a clearer breakdown of allowances within the tax return could help reduce manual work. We’ve updated the status to Gaining Support so we can track feedback and share interest with the product team.

AU Tax | Trust Tax Returns - Multi business Worksheets
After discussion with Xero support it would be beneficial to have the option for multiple business worksheets added to the Trust Tax Returns.
3 votesHi everyone, thanks for sharing this idea. We understand you’re looking for a way to manage multiple business activities within a single Trust Tax Return.
The suggestion is to support multiple business worksheets within one return, making it easier to capture different business streams separately while keeping the tax file organised.
For now, some practices use external spreadsheets to consolidate and track this information before completing the return. We'll continue to track the interest on this idea here.

Xero Tax (AU) - Automatically add the ABN from the client record to P5 of the individual tax return
Any taxpayer can only have one ABN.
Why does Xero leave P5 blank when it could put the ABN (which is already in the client record) into P5 for me?
If you're worried about there sometimes being an ABN in the client record but there being no business that year and it needing to be blank.. then make it work the same as when I rollover from a prior period - last year's fields are rolled over but I can delete them if need be.
Same thing here - when I create the tax return, either:
- roll-over from the…11 votesThanks for sharing your idea to automatically add the ABN to P5 when completing the ITR.

AU Tax - Automatically exclude Superannuation Taxed Elements for clients aged 60+
Xero Tax makes no attempt to look at the age of the recipient of superannuation annuities. Taxed Elements for individuals over 60 years of age are meant to be excluded from the tax return. The ATO does this automatically - Xero Tax does not. It is not a feature request, this is an error in the software that needs rectifying.
2 votesThanks Chris for the feedback. We hear that reviewing and adjusting superannuation components based on age can add extra steps during the return process.
Incorporating age-based logic for Superannuation Taxed Elements may help reduce manual handling and support more streamlined preparation workflows. This has been moved to Gaining Support so we can continue tracking interest and share it with the product team.

Report - Yet to be started GST Returns
There is currently no option in XPM to build a report that shows the GST returns that have not been created yet. Whilst this is possible using the [Client] Tax Return Status field for Financial year end returns, it is not possible for GST returns.
For practices needing to file 100s of GST returns for various clients each month. Having the ability to see, for a given period, whether any GST filings were missed would be extremely helpful.
6 votesHi David, we appreciate your idea about GST return tracking in XPM. Being able to create a custom report to view GST returns that haven’t been done yet would be really helpful, especially for practices managing high volumes of returns.
We’ve moved this idea to Gaining Support, so it’s now open for votes and comments. The more feedback and use cases shared here, the better our product team can understand how valuable this would be.
We’d love to hear how others currently manage GST return tracking and whether this report would support your workflow. Thanks again for starting the conversation!

Reporting - Build Custom reports with no data limitation
It would be great to be able to create our own reports using any datas available in the system and not be restricted to the pre-existing one : my need is to mix some information from the payables with information from the third party card but I cannot do that directly in the solution I need to export both and do it in excel.

Practice tools | Tax Statements & Payments - Indicator for roll forward notes
For notes made in Tax Payments: these need to be split into 2 areas, (1) notes pertaining to that provisional installment and, (2) notes that will continue to roll forward.
It is crucial that even if the installment date has passed, the notes are still visible. Also from the main Tax Payments screen we need an indicator on the client row to show that the client has an active note (with the ability to archive a note as well).

NZ tax - Run an exportable report on outstanding & mismatched transfers/refunds
Would be very beneficial to be able to run a report listing all clients who have outstanding transfers and refunds for a period (and export it). We need to be proactive and contact the IRD before they refund the client instead of actioning a transfer as requested. In APS we could pick up any mismatch early and were able to contact the IRD or the client and rectify quickly.

Clients - Adjustable Column Widths
Allow adjustable column widths in the Clients screen (like Excel), especially for the Client Name field. Long entity names are currently truncated, making it difficult to identify clients. Also allow adding additional columns such as ABN and Address. This will significantly improve usability for practices managing large client bases.
2 votesHi Navnit, appreciate your sharing here. We understand you’re looking for adjustable column widths in client view so you can view important details like longer client names without needing to open each record.
Having more flexible grid layouts could make it easier to review client information and manage records more efficiently.
We'll keep track of this idea here and will update if there's any progress.

NZ Tax - Improved tracking and matching of Transfers in Tax Statements
In Tax Statements, under Transfers tab: the "auto mark as complete" needs to happen by both amount and date. So need the ability to set the effective date for the transfer to occur, therefore if IRD does something different we are alerted.
Currently if transfer is the same $ value or more, then Xero automatically marks as complete, this should not occur. If the $ is more then the transfer has not gone as expected and we need to be alerted to this.
For transfers that IRD does that are higher than expected we need to be able to set…
52 votesThanks for supporting this idea, everyone.
While we know this isn't a perfect solution, the current workaround is to manually track these transfers and we have some help on doing this within Xero Central.
While we understand the desire for improvements to this process, we want to be upfront that this isn't in our current roadmap.
As you may have heard from our recent Xerocon announcements there are lots of exciting improvements coming within the Practice space over the coming months that we our teams are developing for.
While we will move the idea to Not in pipeline, should there be any change around this we will be sure to share with you here.

Xero Sign - client details added automatically
Xero sign in document packs - you currently need to manually input the client's details to add their signature for each document pack (for docs with no auto signing feature like tax returns).
It would be great if there was an option to simply select a client from XPM as all the details are already there (First name/Last name/Email)
4 votesHi everyone ✨ Thanks for sharing your feedback on this idea. We appreciate the time taken to do this and we would like to be completely transparent around this Idea. It is not in the immediate future planning however we have moved the Idea to Gaining Support.

XPM - Exported invoices client and contact details included automatically
When exporting invoices from XPM to Xero it should by default export the client name, address, email address and contact number.
Currently it only exports the client name and postal address, and contact name, email and phone number (but only if that contact is NOT a client in XPM and only if you select that contact when preparing the invoice - forget the contact and you are back at square one.).
If we have an individual as a client in XPM, and send this client an invoice: currently XPM will only export an email and phone number if we add…
6 votesThanks for the comprehensive and exhaustive idea around how contact and client details could be included when invoices are synched from XPM to Xero blue. As you may know there is a new platform (PartnerHub) which you may be aware of, and will be released fully in the near future. You may find that the issue is covered in the new experience. We will move this to Gaining Support so the community can get behind this add their votes and comments.

Individual Income Tax Return - Future Year Return - Tax Rate
When preparing future year return, in my case, FY2025 tax return for one individual client, even though it shows 2025 tax year, Xero tax is actually FY2024 tax rate for calculation. So the result is not accurate. Will Xero Tax fix this issue in the future?
