Hoping for Retainers
I'm hoping that support for retainers can be added.
Maybe a PC can be designated as a "Retainer" using a checkbox somewhere under a tab of its character sheet.
This would allow the retainer (and true PCs) to receive the proper (monetary) treasure and xp when passing it out from the Party Sheet.

You can set the xp by setting the bonus to -50%. They take a full share of treasure right?

The negative xp bonus should work.
Retainers receive one half share (.5 shares).

Specifically, regarding retainers and their treasure shares:
ADV Player's Tome, Page 110:
Shares of Treasure
Fractional shares of treasure are cal-
culated by dividing the treasure by the
total number of shares. For example, a
party consisting of 5 PCs (who receive
full shares) plus one retainer (who is
paid a half share) discover 2,750gp of
treasure. The total is divided by 5.5 (five
full shares plus one half share): 500gp.
Thus, each PC gains 500gp and the
retainer gains 250g.

The way I do it is give out treasure. Remove retainer from ps and re share the 50% he received
