AU Payroll: Entering a branch number when filing Single Touch Payroll
Include a section to enter a branch number when filing STP, we have come into an issue where a few of our clients have changed branch numbers throughout a financial year and the process of changing the branch numbers is quite time consuming. I believe if we had the option to include a branch number when filing STP data it would save a lot fo time and confusion.
1 voteHey Telena, thanks for sharing your idea!
As part of our STP 2 updates, we've just released our 'Reset and finalise YTD amounts' tool. This allows you to zero out the amounts reported against the wrong ABN or Branch number and resubmit them against the correct ABN or branch number.
This replaces the previous process of filing negative pay runs to zero out the incorrect amounts with the ATO, and speeds up the time taken to correct your filings.
You can read more about this tool in our 'Correct your STP data after a change in ABN or branch number' article.

AU Payroll: Adding Work from Home Hours on Payslips
Due to the ATO now requiring employees to keep a record of the hours they work from home in order to claim a percentage of things like internet and electricity bills on their tax return, would it be possible to add this as a Pay Item for employee payslips so it can be easily referenced and submitted for tax purposes.
1 voteHey Nicole, thanks for sharing your idea!
Understand how it'd be useful for employee's to have this information available at tax time.
Just to clarify, it's already possible in Xero to create a custom pay item.
If you need to distinguish between WFH and office hours, you can create a custom pay item for "work from home".

AU Payroll: Start and end times for desktop Xero Me timesheets
Id' like to see the start/stop and break times added to web version too.
It's great that they are available on the XeroMe Mobile app, but even though Australia requires this information, I can not require staff to download a workplace app to their private phones.

Pay Run Journal - Add actual payment date
I run alot of unscheduled payruns due to real estate sales commission payment and bonuses.
It would be helpful if the Pay Run Journal report shows the actual Payment Date. Eg. I have an employee who is set-up for a regular monthly retainer wage paid on the 27th of each month. However during this monthly payment period, they can receive multiple other commssion payments. Can this please be put forward as an enhancement request to the developers?1 voteThis feature is already available, through the Pay Run Journal report 😊
When posting the automatic pay journal, Xero will always use the payment date you've selected in the pay run for the date of the expense.
This is the date you'll see on the journal report. You can read more about on our 'Review payments using the Pay Run Journal' support article.

AU Payroll: Text search for earnings rates in Employment tab
In the new employment tabs in payroll especially painful if you have 100+ pay items and have to scroll down the list and MANUALLY click the item you want.
Would like to start typing the name and have it jump down the list to that item, press tab and move on to the next section.
Too much clicking involved.
1 voteHey Kielan!
The 'Ordinary earnings rate' dropdown box supports text search as you've described 😊
You may have to clear the field by clicking the x next to your earnings rate first, but once that's complete, you can type in your earnings item and select it from the results.
