UK Payroll: Submit Additional Voluntary Contributions direct to NEST
Would like to be able to add a fixed amount deduction as pension contributions. Currently the option is to manually add a pension contribution, but this cannot be submitted direct to NEST, so has to be manually typed into NEST.

I have one employee that wants to pay £200 each month. His salary varies so the only way to get the correct £200 to go direct to NEST reports is to play with the percentages from 5% until I get the right amount for £200 contribution. It's currently 11.579% and you can imagine how many times I have to try to get it to make exactly £200! Sage could do it easily so Xero needs to be fixed to do the same please!

I can only second what Sally is saying - some employees opts to make a lump sum payment each month instead of a % contribution and it is not feasible having to add these manually each month

This really needs to be put in place. I suspect that some people don't even realise that these contributions are missing from their pension submissions
