As much as I recommend Xero to people, it is very disappointing that 12mths down the track since I commented we need to be able to add documents to an employee's file, I'm still having to print out paper and file away employee correspondence.
In this digital day and age! This really should be a priority, not on the backburner.

In the interests of Employee confidentiality payroll associated documentation (source documents) should be filed in the individual Card File under Payroll. Given that the response from Xero representative Kelly Munro was 2nd March 2023 (more than 12 months ago) and so many Xero users are requesting this option, perhaps it is one item that Xero needs to expediate to the the important/ action now list.
Thank you.

Ability to upload employee contracts, medical certificates, super info and required certifications would be of huge help and then everything is kept in one place

Contracts, Licences, Pay Rates, Medical Certificates, Resignation Letters as an exampl

AU payroll - add employee documents to employee record

When adding leave/updating/creating an employee record it would be great to be able to upload documents relating to that, in the same way we can add invoices to sales/purchases records.

Ability to upload files such as employee contracts, licences etc to the Notes section (Employees) in Xero instead of only being able to add a text note.

I would like to add my voice to this request.
It would be so useful to be able add relevant employment and statutory documents to an employee record, such starter forms, employment contracts, doctors fit notes etc.

I would like to upload employees medical certificates with received, is there a way to upload when I add their leave taken
thank you.

Two years since the initial request, a year after the last update, and this is still a much needed feature.

".....that there are no plans at present for this development. It is top of mind for the team, and will be reconsidered when resource becomes more available however we wanted to share and set expectation for the near term with you all, here."

How can something be "top of mind" but have "no plans at present for this development"

I strugle to comprehend the alleged complexity of a function that is already established in so many other areas of Xero?

Would be great to add reimbursement documents to employee payslips and further details when needed. Please make this update ASAP

In the employees' card it would be very handy to have a tab to drag and drop documents e.g. drivers' licence or any other HR documents like contracts, awards, letters from the employee, induction, anything in fact. Similar to the 'files' under the business name drop box. The 'notes' tab is good for that reason.

This is the perfect place to store employment contracts (required by law / as best practice) while retaining privacy. Adding this functionality would be brilliant

Need to add a subcontractor's invoice where we deduct withholding tax

Is this still on Xero's backburner?? how many votes does a topic require for Xero to actually look at and at least start the process? Obviously it is something we all need and in this age of Privacy concerns I would have thought this is a real, topical and major issue and something you need to action. Soon.

Over 100 comments. It’s becoming apparent that Xero development is not driven by the users. This is such a basic request it beggars belief why it was not in the original product design.

Guys please start listening to your front line users.

I can't believe we can't just attach contracts, medical certificates etc against an employee. Seems like a big miss here. C'mon Xero, you clearly can attach docs in your platform... why not here?

It appears that the power of the customer is not having any pull or worth in getting this function to be added. We need to add contracts, doctor certificates etc to the appropriate employee. Disappointed...and I know I am not the only one.

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE - We really need a the ability to attach the employee contracts, sick certificates etc.
