Reports - Add a dedicated QBCC Annual Financial Reporting package for Queensland construction licensees
A specific App or button for trades and construction businesses to use to produce the reports needed by the QBCC annually to be compliant and maintain their trade licenses. Annual compliance and reporting to QBCC for construction businesses is a complex procedure, but I am sure everything they ask us to produce is available in Xero. If Xero could create an easy method to provide this information at the click of a button, it would save a lot of time and money at the accountant's office. When you are not a numbers person but a tradie, the compulsory annual reporting…
1 voteHi Skubi, thanks for your feedback on this idea. We understand that having a dedicated QBCC Annual Financial Reporting package could make it easier for Queensland construction businesses to prepare the reports needed to meet their compliance requirements.

Reports - Trial Balance with OPENING / CLOSING balance and and Movement from GL Summary Report
Team Xero
currently TB report shows ending balances for current year in db/cr two columns AND in single column Clubbed up remaining balances +/- in when COMPANRED to previous periods.I propose/request IT to make TB more classic by
- showing ALL remaining balances in two columns DB/CR when comparing previous years
- OPENING and CLOSING balances columns to be available (year selected from starting of fiscal year Jan20xx)
- TB report to ALLOW us to SELECT RANGE of dates (Range based TB)
- MOVEMENT (total Debits Total Credits) for the selected DATE and/OR RANGE should be available. CURRENTLY this is available in GL…
22 votesHi Yaseen, thank you for this incredibly detailed and well-thought-out suggestion for the Trial Balance report.
We can see how much manual work you're doing, combining exports from the GL Summary Report, just to create a "classic" comparative Trial Balance for your auditors. That's exactly the kind of difficult workflow we want to help improve.
Your proposal to enhance the report with separate debit/credit columns for comparatives, clear opening/closing balances, and a movement column for a selected date range is very clear.
We're grateful for your engagement and for letting us know the changes that matter to you. We've reviewed your idea and now it can gain support from other community members. Along with votes, others can now comment to share additional detail about how these reporting improvements would help them during audits and financial analysis.

UK Tax - Overseas company accounts and corporation tax return
We deal with Overseas companies and subsidiaries, Xero does not have recognise Overseas company number usually starts with FC123456, Xero does no recognise this and create corporation tax return. This is another deficiency of Xero which makes me look at other software.

US sales tax on purchases
If I record sales tax paid on purchases in the US, Xero reports that as a negative liability on the balance sheet. It should either be reported on the P&L or the line item it applies to should be grossed up on the P&L.
1 voteHi Camille, thanks for sharing this idea and the context behind it.
We can see how having a dedicated way to track US sales tax on purchases could make it easier to manage reporting, reconcile costs, and maintain visibility of tax paid to suppliers.
I've updated the status of this idea to Gaining Support, so if this is something you'd like to see in Xero, please keep on voting and sharing how this would support your workflow.

Personal Tax (UK) | Repayments to be shown separately
Tax repayments on UK Tax Returns are automatically offset against the January payment on account, even when it's requested to be sent by cheque or bank transfer. There should be the option for this to be shown separately on the calculation as it will confuse clients when they want to know what is due for payment in January.

Personal Tax (UK) | Update help box on shareholding %
UK Self-Assessment Tax Return - reporting dividend information.
On the 2025/26 self-assessment tax return in the section for employment, if the company is a close company further details need to be added such as whether any dividends were paid during the year and the shareholder's % ownership in the company.
I note that the help box relating to percentage shareholding of close company refers to "if no dividends were received, enter 0". This doesn't reflect what this section refers to i.e., percentage shareholding. So the help box needs updating.
1 voteHi Simon 😊 Thanks so much for taking the time to share this and for explaining the issue so clearly. We can see why this is confusing — the help text on the percentage shareholding field refers to dividends, when that field is actually asking for shareholding information.
We appreciate clear guidance is especially important in this area, so we’re moving this idea to Gaining Support so we can keep tracking interest and feedback while this is reviewed further. Thanks again for raising it and helping us improve the experience.

Reporting - Trial balance split by category
"Please provide or enable a template that allows the generation of a Trial Balance report with account groupings categorized under the same headings like Profit and Loss statement and Balance sheet."
8 votesThanks for sharing your idea, and letting us know the changes that matter most for you.
We've reviewed your idea to show the Trial Balance by category and now it's up to the community to get behind and support it.
In the meantime, did you know that you can group the Trial Balance by 'Account Class' or 'Account Type'? Whilst not the exact functionality requested, these options allow you to split the accounts up within the report.

Profit & Loss - Option to use monthly average exchange rates for multi-currency reporting
When looking at the profit for the current year in a multi currency situation, Xero just uses the conversion date of the report for the lump sum of the year, rather than the exchange rate from each month and then adding them together. This means anyone who has been entering the info into a larger group on a month by month basis has to consistently make forex adjustments, even though they have used the Xero rates of exchange in all the prior months P&L's.
1 voteHi everyone, thanks for sharing this suggestion. The idea is to have the report reflect the historical monthly exchange rates already used in prior period reporting, helping reduce the need for manual foreign exchange adjustments when consolidating financial information.
Thanks again for sharing this feedback. We appreciate the examples from the community around how this could make multi-currency reporting more consistent.

Aged Payable report - add creditor bank account number as a drop down selection in the filters

Reports - Link Notes Back to Statements
Can you please add a link the note that takes us back to the statement it relates to? i.e. when we click on the note number in the statement, it takes us to the note. Can we get the reverse done too? Then we can more easily check that the note reconciles with the statement figure.
1 voteHi Philippa, thanks for sharing this suggestion.
We understand you’re looking for a way to link report notes directly back to the related transactions or source statements, making it easier to review the details behind key insights.
Having connected notes and transaction references could help make management reporting easier to follow and support more efficient reviews.

Dashboard - VAT Notifications to show when return has been filed
Please can Xero improve the dashboard notifications regarding VAT returns so that it shows that the VAT return has been submitted. This would avoid me having heart failure when I log in and see the information below! Our VAT is collected by direct debit, so I know if it is submitted, its HMRC direct debit taking its time, and not my mistake!
2 votesThanks for sharing your feedback on VAT return notifications. We appreciate you explaining how clearer status indicators on the dashboard could help, especially when returns have been filed but payment collection is still pending.
