Yes. Asked about this by a number of practices.
Missing fields such as Client Groups, Description and Custom Fields would allow for enhanced workflow insights (this would save on custom reports or Excel extracts that are currently required). -

As an implementation partner for Xero practices, I get asked about this for NZ XPM accounts also.
The ability to either auto roll-over or bulk generate draft income tax returns would save a huge amount of time and also allow to report fully in the report builder tax return modules. Also, the ability for admins to bulk delete returns would supplement this process where not required (currently singular return deletion available only).
Currently two separate reports are required (client returns not started & tax returns in progress) to see where the full tax workflow is at.
Common questions I get:
1 - Why I have to report in two separate reports to see all my tax returns (leads to Excel pivots and complexity)?
2 - Why I have to generate every single tax return when XPM has clients with signed authorities and tax returns expected (i.e. the rollover or bulk generation should be limited to certain fields, certainly not for all clients).Hope this helps add to the discussion as it is a nice win for practices if this can be surfaced on the roadmap.

Valuable product suggestion here. As highlighted, for GST and other tax types there are no such reports that shows outstanding balances. When you run a custom 'Tax Statement' report and filter to GST tax type, it unfortunately is a dud field that doesn't pull any data for this tax type. And as there are no payment notices issued for GST, the 'Tax Payments (Approved)' report doesn't work for this either. Having the GST (and other tax types) statement balances sync from IRD would be great for practices to be able to follow up on outstanding amounts from IRD without having to leave XPM. I have had several accounting practices ask for this functionality in the reports which would be very valuable for ensuring GST balances get paid.

Thanks for the feedback and great to hear the use you find in repeat templates in Xero.
While there's no way to bulk update templates atm, you may find updating your templates through export & import of invoices more helps quicken things up?
You could export invoices that have been generated from your template to CSV, update the amounts in the exported file, and then re-import.
This will create 'Draft' invoices in your Xero org from which you can create a Repeat template and then delete the draft. 🙂

Thanks for your support on the idea, everyone. We thoroughly appreciate your participation, and letting us know where you'd like to see change across Xero.
Customer statements, is an area of Xero that needs upgrades to it's technology in order to make ideas like this one here possible.
Currently, while we have plans for modernising this space soon we cannot commit to any new developments for Statements until this work has been complete. Once this has been done I'll round back to the idea here when we can reset the objectives.

Have been asked by a number of practices for this feature request.
Specific audit trail items that would be beneficial:
Jobs added, updated, deleted (who, date/time, detail)
Clients & contacts added, updated, deleted (who, date/time, detail)
Invoices added, updated, deleted (who, date/time, detail) - aware that can see on the invoice history but in a report is more what they are after so they can report in bulk.
Tax returns added, updated, deleted (who, date/time, detail) - aware that history shows in tax returns when viewing the return but in report would be great to report in bulk.
Agree that report builder audit log would be helpful too.
