AU Payroll - Ability to pay staff with joint bank account in same pay run
Please enable the ability to pay staff with a joint bank account in same pay run. We currently have to pay two couples with a joint bank account into separate accounts each run. Xero does not permit two payments into the same bank account in one pay run. I have confirmed with our bank that this is not an error on their end. Xero support have informed me that this is not a function that Xero currently offers.

??? I have 2 employees with the same bank account, no problems paying both in the same payrun. The BSB and account number are the same, but the bank account name input is just each employee's name, and this seems to work.

We have had to pay staff into secondary bank accounts rather than their shared (Joint account) transaction account to enable payment to spouses/partners in the same pay run. This function should be essential to process payments to staff. Surely, we are not the only business with partners that work together.
