AU Payroll - Link deduction pay item to bank account
Please create a deduction for payroll that can be linked to a bank account. Currently deductions can only be managed via balance sheet and/or by adding reimbursement to enable it to be transferred via EFT. Quickbooks and some other payroll software have this ability and it makes life so much easier and clearer for the emlployee too.

Payroll: Set a percentage on an employees bank account
Give the ability to set a percentage (i.e) 50% on an employees bank account when paying across more than one bank.
I have an employee who always splits her pay equally between 2 bank accounts, however she is a commission paid rep and therefore each pay amount is different. So the current function is no use to me- which allows a $$ amount to be set only. This is fine for set salaried employees but not for commissioned sales reps.
MYOB had a function where you could set a percentage on how much went to bank account 1, and therefore…19 votes -

AU Payroll - Option to select salary to include/exclude in Super
I work in the payroll team at a business where the majority of our employees are on salaries that include super. This means every July, I have to go into every person's pay template and recalculate what their new salary is (because xero works only on an excluding super basis).
My suggestion: The ability to select whether a salary is including or excluding super per employee. Then every year when the statutory super amount goes up, I won't have to recalculate everyone's new salary for xero. This also means that an employee's payslip has the same salary as what is…

AU Payroll - Prompt Payroll Admin to update leave accruals when changing pay calendars
When a company changes their payroll frequency to a new calendar there is no prompt to adjust the leave accrual.
For instance, I recently changed my client from Fortnightly to Monthly Calendar.
I adjusted each employee to the new calendar.On their Leave tab in the set-up of the leave accrual it asked the question:
Hours a full-time employee works in a Fortnightly pay period
When I changed the calendar to monthly this question changed to:
Hours a full-time employee works in a Monthly pay period
There was however no prompt to adjust the answer, the previous answer just transferred…3 votes -
AU Payroll - Add Parental leave pay item
Have a paid parental leave pay item so that a balance can be input and 'drawn down' on. The employee and the employer have clear visibility on how much time has been taken and how much is left.
Since STP PH2 compliance has come in, paid parental leave has just become an earnings pay item and not a leave pay item.
The workaround of running the Payroll Activity Summary or Transaction Listing Summary report to keep track of the earnings processed for the employee, is onerous and not available to the employee.

Xero Me - Payroll Authorisers to NOT include advisers
Please adjust the Leave Authorisers in Xero Me to be the employees in the business with Payroll Admin &/or the Authority to Approve Leave.
Currently all user with PAyroll Admin are available for selection - which includes ALL advisors.
As an accountant - we are having to revoke our access to a client's payroll to ensure that the staff in the client's business cannot select the accountant's staff members to approve their leave.17 votes -
Xero Me - Decimal hours for timesheets in Xero Me
Xero Me App
When an employee is trying to enter the hours worked it only provides an option to do hours and minutes for the day worked, yet on the desktop it can be done simply as a decimal. For example we do 7.6 hours normal working hours with 0.4 hours going to an RDO bank for every day (except on an RDO).
It just seems really silly to have to adjust it to an equivalent of minutes instead of the hours total, be it whole or decimal for each and every day. Can this be fixed to work exactly…

AU Payroll - Allow payroll history to be filtered by activity type
Currently in Payroll History you can filter activity by Type and select 'Employees'.
This is too broad to be able to easily pick up bank account changes. eg for 1 month there are 959 entries over 4 pages (which need to be manually clicked to load).
The entries have the type of 'Employee: Bank Accounts'
Features requested ;
1) Add a 'Subtype' filter for Employee events; of which 'Bank Accounts' should be an option.
2) Add ability to Export the report to PDF from initial screen without having to load all the other items.3 votes -

AU Payroll - Option to include allowances in annual salary on payslip
We pay our employees under the Electrical award which includes several compulsory 'All Purpose' allowances that are now reported separately as per STP2. Why are these allowances excluded from an employee's annual salary on their payslip? They used to be included as part of their base hourly rate - therefore included in their annual salary and as such, should still be included in 'annual salary'. Can you please have the option to 'include in annual salary' when setting up Allowance categories in the pay items?

AU Payroll - Add 'Payslips Sent' flag to STP filing screen
It would be good if you could go into 'Pay Employees' and next to the STP - Filed or not filed it would be good to have 'Payslips Emailed'. I have no way of checking / double checking if I have sent them.

AU Payroll - Ability to calculate protected amount for child support deduction
Currently payroll is only able to child support as a deduction.
In Australia, there is a protected amount that employee needs to earn before the deduction is taken out of their pay. There isn't a function that will allow this currently.
Payroll officers manually have to keep track of this and remove the deduction if protected amount is not reached. Small businesses with a few employees would be able to keep track but for the likes of a bigger business with more than 20+ employees, this would be a nightmare.

UK Payroll - Send payslips to multiple email addresses
Can you please create the functionality to send the payslips to both the employees and the employers.
Currently payslips can only be sent to one email address when being sent by Xero. A second email address can't be added to an employee's record for payslips to be sent to.
It would be beneficial to be able to send them via Xero to both the employee and employer.

NZ Payroll: Notes on Time Sheets
We have just moved onto Xero Payroll and it would be very helpful if employees could add notes to their timesheet each day.
19 votesHi everyone, an update to my earlier message:
This change was specific to users of the Australian payroll.
Apologies, and we'll shift this idea back to 'Submitted' so we can continue to track and share if there are developments in New Zealand Payroll.
However, at the moment this is not in the team's plans.
- If you operate across multiple regions, and are interested in reading more, I've updated this idea. which is specific to AU.
Thanks for your understanding.

AU Payroll - Show mark as paid on the superannuation status page
It would be very helpful if any super that has had the 'Mark as Paid' applied was also shown on the superannuation status page and also on the Superannuation Payments Report too. It is a collaborative QA, transparancy/visibility thing that would be very helpful given we have clients, BASAgents, Bookkeepers and Accountants all trying to make sure a client meets all obligations so showing this would provide good clear confirmation as to what has occured no matter which 'advisor' with permission logged in - we can all support each other this way.
