Client groups - Work in progress
When using client groups and clicking the Work in Progress Button, there is nothing showing when there is WIP in the group.
It appears the group name is not pushing through the WIP link to the filter properly.
7 votesHi Ben, while WIP should be appearing for all the clients in the group our product teams have found an issue for some users where this isn't loading correctly.
We have intentions to fix this however a couple of other items that they have attention on first, I'll share when work for this gets picked up. Thanks

Report Templates - Add GST reports
It would be good if any report you can already run in Xero could be added to a report template - this would include GST reports (activity statement and GST reconciliation), payroll reports etc. That way instead of having to manually extract each of these reports for each client we can just do it in bulk through one report template.
30 votesThanks for sharing your idea to include GST reports in report templates.
We can see how this would be a real time-saver, especially when you’re building out report packs for clients or internal teams. There’s clearly a strong appetite for this feature, and we understand why. Being able to add GST reports directly into templates would simplify the process of creating complete, consistent report packs for any purpose.
This idea is now in the Gaining Support stage. That means it's open for voting and comments, and we’ll continue to monitor interest from the community. Your input helps inform how we prioritise future updates to Xero. We’ll keep you posted here with any developments.

AU Tax - Allow custom cover letters and document templates for CURNN forms
I would like to be able to create a custom cover letter to go with the CURNN.
3 votesHi Elaine, we understand that having more flexibility with client-facing documents can help practices keep communications consistent with their own branding and processes.
The suggestion is to allow custom cover letters to be included with CURNN forms, so the full client pack can be created in one place.
For now, you can download the CURNN confirmation and attach it to your own cover letter or template. We’ve moved this to Gaining Support so we can track interest and help our product teams understand the value of adding more document customisation options.

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)
5 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. Your continued votes and comments help us understand the impact and prioritize improvements that matter most to you.

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…
7 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.

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.

Xero Tax (UK) | MTD - Export report for Income tax
Making Tax Digital for Income Tax
It would be nice to be able to export a report in a suitable format for clients to approve prior to submission

AU Tax - Company business structure will pull the Physical address to the Dividends and interests schedule.
Company business structure tax returns should pull the physical address to the Dividends and Interests schedule, instead of the Postal address. It is not correct to put a PO Box or postal address in the schedule and you are not able to update the address field.
Currently only Partnership tax returns will pull the physical address to the Dividends and Interests schedule.
3 votesHi Julie, thanks for sharing this idea. We understand that having company details flow through to tax schedules automatically would help reduce repeated data entry when completing returns.
We hear the request for the company physical address to pre-fill into the Dividends and Interest schedule, so you don’t need to manually enter the information.
We’ve moved this to Gaining Support so we can track interest and help our product teams understand the value of improving data flow between company details and tax schedules.

XPM - Set date to run Aged Debtor Report
Ability to run an Aged Debtors Report of what debts clients owed us at a certain date in XPM. For example, we want to see what our clients owed us at 30/06/25, however the Standard Report (Aged Balance Report) can't be run to a certain date and if we create our own Report in Report Builder it removes clients from the report if they have paid since 01/07/25 and now owe nothing. We need these figures to do clients Financials and also for our own Practice reporting. We can run it in Xero Blue however we don't have the ability…

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.

XPH | Client - AML/CTF Verification
Make the Verification fields mandatory in individual records if practice has had to register under rhe new AML/CTF obligations. Could be something in the user practice settings that if the practice has registered with Austrac that they switch this on so all individuals are verified when being set up or could just be mandatory for all. Also add 2 more fields to the Verification to meet the AML requirements: AML Client Risk Rating (CRR) – Low Medium or High
AML CRR Reason – enter the reason you gave the client the above rating1 voteThanks for sharing this idea about client verification mandatory for individual records, and adding fields for AML client risk rating and the reason for that rating.
If this would help your practice as well, please add your vote and comment with a brief example of your workflow. Details like whether you currently track this outside Xero, how often it creates extra admin, or what information you need to capture for AML/CTF purposes will help show the impact and build support for the idea.

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).

Contacts - Customer Statement to show All Payments
Hi Xero Team,
We need a new customer statement format that functions as a "traditional" detailed ledger.
The Problem: The current "Activity Statement" is focused on allocations. It shows which invoices are paid or unpaid and portion of payments made to the invoice, but it does not show the payment transactions themselves as separate line items.
For example, if a customer makes one large payment of R5,000 to clear three invoices, the current statement splits this payment up as their parts to the invoice. The customer cannot see their R5,000 payment listed as a single transaction. This is confusing for…
5 votesHi Jasmine, thanks for sharing this idea with us. We can see why this would be helpful for some users. Currently, Xero offers the Customer Invoice Activity and the Contacts "Activity statement" . While this information is available on the account transaction report, it is not available in a Statement format. We've moved this idea to Gaining support so that other users who want this idea implemented can vote for it as well. You may share this idea with your colleagues to get more traction!

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.
2 votesThanks 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.

Jobs - Configuration for Public Holidays
Public Holiday configuration: There should be a place for admin to set up public holiday for all practice members instead of them having to submit individual timesheets.
The purpose is to have all necessary data for practice manager to do capacity planning accordingly.

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.

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?

XPH | Jobs - Search or Filter based on type of job
Search or sort for specific Jobs in XPM, such as all Jobs for Management accounts or VAT, In the Job manager it show all the jobs but i can not search or sort basies on type of Job. Adding this will make this tool better for managment
1 voteThanks for sharing your feedback here. We understand the request to add job type as a search or filter option in Xero Practice Hub. Having this available could help you find the jobs you're looking for more quickly and manage your workload more efficiently.
We've updated this idea to Gaining Support so we can continue tracking interest from the community. If this would improve your workflow, add your vote and share your thoughts with us.

NZ Tax - Need taxable income field available for reporting
We need to run a report showing the taxable income of all our individual clients (from the tax returns filed), to find those that are over the maximum liable earnings for ACC.
From there we check for clients who may have had more than one employer and therefore paid more than the maximum ACC levies, so we can contact ACC for a refund.
When we were using MYOB, taxable income was a field included in the tax letter reports so we could download and filter from there.
Apparently there is no way to get this data out of Xero, as…
1 voteHi Kathryn, thanks again for sharing this idea.
I can see why having taxable income available in reporting would be useful, especially when you need to identify clients who may be over the ACC maximum liable earnings threshold and then follow up on any possible refunds.
We’re moving this idea to Gaining support so others in the Community can vote for it and add their use cases. That helps us keep an eye on interest and better understand the impact this would have for practices using NZ Tax.
If anyone else in your practice would benefit from this, please encourage them to add their support and comments too.

AU Tax - Improve the validation error experience
I had a validation error CMN.ATO.DISTBENTRT.000013 generated in an SMSF tax return.
When I clicked on the validation error it took me to a specific trust income schedule (number 10 of 18), which had several fields highlighted. The error says that there must be a number in any of the fields A B D U and so on - this schedule met this condition.
After much wasted time trying to re-enter fields, checking there were no blank spaces, deleting and re-entering all fields, deleting and re-entering the whole schedule, I contacted support.
It turns out the error was actually generated…32 votesHi Vicki, we're grateful for your detailed suggestion of how to improve the validation error linking and highlighting experience in AU Tax.
We'll continue to monitor the level of support this idea receives from the community. Thanks again for your contribution.
