AU Payroll - Pay Contractors in payroll and include GST
Hi,
It would be great to be able to pay contractors (who are paid Super) in Payroll and have an option for GST. I feel the Contractor payments aren't user friendly for most small business as they have subcontractors and contractors where only GST is added and no PAYG tax is deducted.9 votes -
Invoice - Send void invoice email
A feature that allows an email to be sent for a voided invoice to the client so they have confirmation the invoice is voided as verification.
This can be as simple as taking the invoice template / previously generated pdf and branding "VOIDED" or "CANCELLED" on top of it.2 votes -
UK Payroll - Download links for Payroll reports
Once Payroll is posted we require the relevant reports (journal and activity), I feel a download link (alike the one for payslips) would be beneficial rather than having to view reports and then having to export download for printing or saving purposes, this would save users time.

Bills - Select documents from files in the Upload bills feature
At the moment you can't directly Upload bills from the files inbox we are having to download the files then upload them. Seems like an obvious feature.

Repeating Invoice - Set up daily invoices
Can we please have the ability to set up daily repeating invoices - currently the only option is weekly or monthly. I can't find an easy work around so far.

AU Payroll - Recurring leave request
We have 2 employees that will be taking 1 day LSL every week in the new financial year and it would be very helpful if there was a way to add in this type of leave request as a recurring request for the same day each week. Rather than having to add in 1 day leave for each occasion.

AU Payroll - Add Public Holidays (and all other forms of leave) to the Leave Transactions report
Add Public Holidays (and all other forms of leave) to the Leave Transactions report not just Annual Leave and Personal Leave.
Why this isn't already the default behaviour astounds me!

Logout now option on the timeout screen
When the screen locks it would be helpful to have the option just to logout. Currently if you have timed out but finished working on Xero you actually have to login just to be able to log out which is a waste of time.
5 votesHi 👋 your idea is being looked into by our Community team. We will be in touch soon to update you once your idea has been reviewed.

AU Payroll - Set the number of decimals places to 2
set the number of decimals places e.g. 2 so when Xero applies a award factor e.g. 1.5x award rate the results only displays to two decimals place in their pay.
Awards are published to two decimals places that's all we are required to pay in Australia.
Fixing the rounding wastes so much time.22 votes -
Export | Select which Sales Invoices/Bills to pay to Export to excel
To be able to only export a selection of sales invoices (or customers) and / or bills to pay (suppliers). Now you can only select on date or name via the search option. This will make it easier to send a selection of sales invoices and bills to pay in excel to customers or suppliers. (see file attached).
1 voteHi Marit, as shown when you've picked selected invoices and click the Export option only the one's you've selected will be exported. It sounds like you may want to search by a different term / field? If so can you share a bit more detail here to help when sharing your feedback with the team? Thanks

UK Payroll - Employee Contact Details
Payroll Employee Contact Details would be good to see a column for terminated employee showing date left and employee number

Products and Services - Add "In committed quotes" and "Quantity on order" to the columns in the main page & reports
This will allow a more accurate look on the stocks pre-ordered as well as incoming stocks. Instead of having to click each item to see it.
Even in the reports, it's great to see it so we can just generate a quick report about it.
4 votesHi team, we appreciate the value some businesses would find in being able to report on values of items that have been committed in quotes or quantities on order from purchase orders. While this isn't something we have plans around right now, we'll continue to track the interest for this from your idea here and share if there are any plans made.

Bank Reconciliation - Status terms need to be changed
After a transaction is matched with the online download status should be matched or cleared. Once the reconciliation report is completed the status should change to reconciled. A transactions status should not be deemed reconciled until account is actually Reconciled with the bank statement.

AU Payroll - Track Contractors superannuation contribution owed
Invoices submitted by contractors - Xero should have a tick box where we can tick 'I need to pay super on this invoice' and it tracks and records contractor super owing.

Bank Reconciliation - Add calculations into split section of Cash Coding
The Reconcile section split allows you to add, subtract, multiply and divide in the amount cell. The Cash Coding split section does not. I would like the Cash Coding split section to allow for the calculations so that you don't have to hop back and forth between Reconcile and Cash Coding in order to get all of the transactions in. This would save a lot of time for manual entry items.

Search Engine Optimisation - More intuitive
I would appreciate the Search engine to be reverted back to how it was. The new "upgraded" search is close to useless. When I search for clients, I expect all relevant clients to come up. I don't want to type in the whole client name, just to get their details to show up. Previously I could type in a few letters and the search would come up with an amazing list of relevance....
1. Contact listed first
2. Invoices listed next
3. Bills listed thereafter
4. then lastly bank transactionsThese searches used to come up with appropriate information and not outdated information from 8 years ago.....the tax office don't even require us to keep data for that long!
I am having issues with different clients. Support says, they need to "re-index", that did nothing, I have some clients I search for contacts, some for amounts, some for invoice number, some by tracking. This is my go to tool. I don't want to go to the contacts to search for the contact and then search for what I need. I don't want to go to the invoices to look for the invoice that I am looking for. I don't want to go to the bank and search for the amounts. I want to be able to do it all in the one place, like before.
I might not have all these details at hand, sometimes we use the search as a bit of hit or miss, sometimes we know the name of something similar and type it in and maybe we haven't quite got it so nothing shows up and we try again, until we get what we are looking for.
As it is Xero is extremely slow, and this tool was highly useful to search all aspects of xero. It was so much easier to search for documents through xero than my email at times! It made having everything at our finger tips a dream come true. We could answer queries efficiently, we could easily supply the information, simply with a search. Since the downgrade, this has all been messed up and it has become an incredibly frustrating and unproductive journey.

Report - Staff member monthly billing
A report to see how much each staff member is billing out per month. There are similar reports like the write on/off report but it doesn't seem entirely accurate.
4 votesHi Eilish, is there are particular way your staff are recording how they bill customers through your Xero organisation atm? - e.g are you using Projects, or Tracking?
As you noted there maybe a report that we an suggest that'll fully serve your needs in this here.

Contacts - Add decent length text field to Financial Details section
I would like to add information such as the date their bank details were changed on Xero and whether independent verification of the new details has been done (and how). This is becoming more important as the number of phishing invoices increases. If possible, the capability to attach a relevant document (eg notification from supplier of bank change) but if not possible, then a decent character length text field (as a comparison, the current Reference field is way too short and doesn't allow puctuation).
2 votesHi Sarah, while we don't have plans for expanding this field directly within a Contact atm, perhaps adding a note to the contacts record with this extra detail would suffice?

Payment Services - Add Alipay as a payment service
Proposal: Integrating Alipay as a Payment Option in Xero
Overview
Introducing Alipay as a payment option for Xero invoices will provide significant benefits for businesses engaging with international markets, particularly China. As China is Australia’s largest trading partner, offering a seamless payment method like Alipay will enhance cash flow, improve payment experiences, and reduce barriers for Chinese customers to pay invoices.Key Reasons to Integrate Alipay:
China is Australia’s Largest Trading Partner
China accounts for a significant share of Australia’s exports and imports. For businesses that trade with Chinese companies or customers, Alipay is often the preferred or only method of payment.
Providing Alipay as an option makes it easier for Chinese partners to pay invoices promptly, avoiding delays caused by incompatible payment systems.
Alipay’s Market Dominance
Alipay is one of the most widely used payment platforms in China, with over 1.3 billion users worldwide.
It dominates the digital payment landscape, with Chinese businesses and individuals heavily reliant on it for transactions.
By integrating Alipay, Xero will enable businesses to cater directly to this massive user base.
Seamless Cross-Border Transactions
Traditional international bank transfers are often slow, expensive, and prone to errors, especially when dealing with currency conversions.
Alipay simplifies the process by allowing instant, secure payments while managing the exchange rate in real-time.
This will accelerate cash flow for businesses and reduce administrative overheads related to tracking international payments.
Increased Competitiveness for Xero
Competitors offering invoicing software may already be looking to integrate popular international payment methods.
Adding Alipay will enhance Xero’s value proposition for businesses that trade with Chinese partners, making it a preferred choice for international companies.
Facilitating Growth for Australian Businesses
Australian exporters, particularly in sectors like agriculture, education, gas, manufacturing, and tourism, rely heavily on Chinese customers.
Allowing payments via Alipay will make it simpler for these businesses to collect revenue, helping them focus on growth and strengthening trade relationships.
Improving Customer Experience
For Chinese businesses and individuals, paying via Alipay is familiar, trusted, and easy. This reduces friction and encourages prompt payments.
Businesses will experience fewer payment disputes or abandoned invoices when their customers can use their preferred method of payment.
Strengthening Xero’s Presence in Asia-Pacific
By supporting Alipay, Xero can bolster its presence in the Asia-Pacific region, particularly among small-to-medium enterprises looking to trade with China.
This strategic move aligns with Xero’s goal to expand its reach and customer base globally.
Increased Adoption of Digital Payments
Alipay supports the global trend of moving towards cashless and digital payments.
Adding this payment option complements Xero’s existing tools for managing invoices, automating payments, and streamlining financial operations.
Implementation Benefits:
Reduced Payment Delays: Faster and more reliable transactions.
Improved Cash Flow: Businesses can access funds quickly and reduce waiting times.
Simplified Processes: Streamlined currency conversion and automated payment reconciliations.
Enhanced Customer Satisfaction: A payment method tailored to key trading partners.
Conclusion
Integrating Alipay into Xero’s platform will significantly enhance Xero’s appeal to businesses operating with Chinese customers and partners. This move will not only simplify the payment process but also improve cash flow, customer satisfaction, and Xero’s competitive position in the market. By acknowledging the needs of businesses in an increasingly global economy, Xero can continue to be a leader in innovative financial solutions.Proposal: Integrating Alipay as a Payment Option in Xero
