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.

UK Self Assessment Repayment
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.

Supplier Payment Days Report to support Fair Payment Code applications
Xero already calculates the average number of days a business takes to pay each supplier (you can see it on individual contact records under "Bills"). But there's no way to pull this into a single report across all suppliers.
This matters because the UK Government's Fair Payment Code (which replaced the Prompt Payment Code in December 2024) requires businesses to provide evidence of their payment performance from their accounting software when applying for an award.
The Code has three tiers: Gold (95% of invoices paid within 30 days), Silver (95% within 60 days, with 95% to small businesses within 30…

Ability to save comparative option instead of default to period
Ability to select a default 'compare with'. I like to run a report for a period using 'compare with previous year'. It drives me crazy that every time I need to change the dates it defaults back to 'compare with period'.

self assessment tax return
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.

Claude - connector functionality is poor
The functionality of the Claude connector is poor, can this be improved to access multiple Xero businesses and permit data requests at a more granular level?

Reporting bug: 1 invalid formula. Please fix before switching or saving.
When editing reports we'll sometimes break formulas.
In some cases, after fixing the formulas by:
- Replacing broken elements so none are highlighted as red, or
- Literally replacing every single formula
We are still prevented from saving with the message "1 invalid formula. Please fix before switching or saving."This isn't a new idea but a request for the dev team to revisit the validation. It's pretty inconvenient to start over.

Uncoded Transaction report needs better filtering
Uncoded transaction report only allows you to pick all accounts or a single account in the filters.
I have a client who has 10 accounts but only half of them are current and non personal accounts. I either have to run the report 5 times or have the report being 13 pages long.
It would be good if we could select multiple accounts in the filters.

net profit after tax
Profit & Loss reporting MUST include before and after tax totals. The before tax number would also exclude non-deductible expenses such as Tax, IRD penalties, non-Deductible Entertainment. I use a custom section called Tax and Non-Deductilbe Expenses to calculate the after tax total.
This is incredibly important because clients look at the Profit number and think they a doing better than they actually are, especially if the tax expense number has not been generated which 99% of the time they look at this report. Having the space for Tax Expense to appear will make them aware of the need to…1 voteThanks for submitting your idea on Xero Product Ideas.

Fixed asset
I would like to suggest changing Effective Life (Yrs) from Year to Month.
From our side, we have several assets with a useful life results in an uneven number when expressed in years—for example, 16 months (i.e., 1.33 years).Entering useful life in months would be more practical and would help avoid rounding issues when calculating depreciation.

Please fix the wording of Investment Boost box in IR10s
Currently the IR10, Box 60 says 'Investment Boost Claimed', but this is misleading as the amount that needs to be entered is the value of the assets which are having Investment Boost claimed.
The IRD's IR10 Guide calls Box 60 'Total value of Investment Boost asset(s) being claimed'.
Please change the name of Box 60 to match the IR10 guide. This will make it easier for users to enter the correct amount.

IETC part year calculations up until entitlement for Best Start payments commences
Why will the IR3 Tax return not let you claim the IETC for the number of months a client is entitled to, before Best Start payments start. It will calculate the IETC for the 9 months in the return but as soon as the Working for Families schedule is added with the Best Start Payments boxed ticked it changes the calculation to NIL.
You would think that the IETC calculation would remain or could be manually over-ridden so all calculated amounts would show on the tax summary for the client. This could be flagged when an audit of the tax…

using the monthly exchange rates for current year profit
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.

have multiple VAT accounts and remove from default UK vat return
I have multiple clients who are registered in different countries for VAT, and I would like to suggest that there is a way to have multiple VAT controls accounts for where a specific new tax rate is created (for example 19% being for Germany VAT and 23% for Ireland). But also, if there is a way to automatically exclude these from the UK VAT return report
