Payroll - Historical Payslip Report (bulk download)
Create a report to show all payslips for an employee for a given time period. Currently these have to be downloaded one by one.

Thanks for your continued support of this idea, everyone.
We understand that the current process of downloading multiple payslips can take some time for employees with multiple years worth of payslips.
Currently if you invite employees into Xero Me portal they can self-serve payslips and download for themselves as needed.
To be transparent, with much of the team being focused on ‘Building on Beautiful’, there’s no current work planned to develop an option to bulk download payslips.
If anything changes, we’ll update you here, and in the meantime, please keep sharing your feedback and insights on this idea, our product teams are often in these forums taking on board all of your valuable feedback.

This is required for apprentice schemes. Very necessary to do

Here is my "personal hello"reply from CEO, I'm not holding out any hope for a response.
Thanks for reaching out to ceo@xero.com - I love hearing from you and getting your feedback.
Emails to this inbox will be monitored by the Xero team and we’ll do our best to respond where possible.
If you have a support query, please continue to reach out via Xero Central. For all feature requests and product ideas, please go to Xero Product Ideas.
Best wishes,

I don't know if everyone got the "personal note to say hello" from the new CEO, Sukhinder Singh Cassidy.
Perhaps an email to her direct ceo@xero.com to express our frustrations with the lack of response and action to this might do something. Probably not, but worth a try. I am emailing now. -
Manager - Kerry Graham commented
think this has been going on for enough time for Xero to have done something about it? is there a reason is it not happening that we don't know about?? Come on Xero talk to your subscribers :-

Jeffrey Cohen commented
Maybe we should all refuse to pay our subscriptions.
That will get their attention!! -

Have commented regularly on this request and find it difficult to understand why XERO provides no comment or update to the many requests and comments to users.
This is very real and required report in Australia, and shouldn’t be difficult to provide. Anyone with access and system knowledge can pull a report from any system. Why is this not given priority? -
Mel Goodin commented
In my previous administration role, we had apprentices.
To be able to claim the apprentice rebate, we regularly had to supply 3-6 months of pay slips in one document as supporting evidence. This would be required by every employer Australia wide, who employ apprentices.
Downloading payslips one by one is extremely painful and time consuming.
Prior to tswitching to Xero, we used MYOB and could create this supporting document in 5 secs. Not hours later. -

This is required every quarter for every apprentice. Individual payslips are required each week for each employee, then need to be attached to NSW apprenticeship claim form. Very time consuming to manually download, save then attach each individual payslip for each apprentice. thanks Kylie

I am tempted to unsubscribe from receiving emails as it is getting to be just as much a waste of time reading our frustrations as it is printing the payslips. However, supposedly "the squeaky wheel gets the oil" ... pffft
This has been an ongoing issue - flagged as Critical.
Xero has given ZERO response to anyone, and obviously have spent ZERO time looking into this. VERY FRUSTRATING that there should be so many subscribers screaming out for this "seemingly" SIMPLE REPORT and yet "crickets" from Xero and this lip service "Product Ideas" facility is useless. -
Jen Martin commented
WE need this report

Alison Huntley commented
We have transitioned from a Trust to a Company. The Trust will still operate, but will only have 1 employee, thus the subscription will be reduced to save costs. I would like to bulk download pay slips for all employees from the Trust so we have a record in case this is required in the future

copy & send to colleagues to ask them to vote

SANDRA MCSWEENEY commented
Maybe we should charge Xero for our time to download individually all the payslips that are required for apprenticeships and people wanting them for their bank.
I have 50% myob clients and 50% xero clients. -
Andrea Blackbeard commented
This is so frustrating and time consuming.
The only way that Xero are going to pay attention is if more people vote - please ask your colleagues to log in and vote for this.

This should already be a feature. not time effective at all.

Completely agree, I posted about this some time ago and I can't believe there has been no response from Xero whatsoever. I am in the process of setting up a new entity and seriously considering a move back to MYOB. MYOB have made some serious updates over the last few years and it just seems that Xero is doing very little.
