AU Payroll - Allocate Paid Parental Leave pay items to a liability account
Currently the PPL pay item can only be allocated to an expense account.
This is not in line with the Australian Accounting Standard.
Can Xero update the ability to allocate to a liability account, please?

Hi there, we appreciate you raised this a little while ago. This isn't something we have plans for in the near term.
Not getting a lot of support from other members we’ll soon remove this from Product ideas. If it’s still highly valuable to you, welcome to start it again and see if it gets renewed interest.

Given Xero's huge subscriber base in Australia, I would imagine a lot of Xero's subscribers are part of the Paid Parental Leave Scheme. Which means a lot of Xero's subscribers have been and continue to be inconvenienced by Xero Payroll's lack of this basic ability to map an earnings pay item to balance sheet accounts.
Would Xero please prioritise this request to help manager your subscribers' frustration?

This should be a general functionality for ALL "Pay Items", and it should include the ability to allocate to ASSET accounts as well.
We do some internal rebilling of salaries within our organsiation and it would be much easier for us if we could designate specific pay item codes to go to specific asset (contra/recovery) accounts.
