User Roles - Ability to filter and sort list by roles and permissions
As part of our QA, we review the list of users to check that it is up to date, eg, remove terminated employees, remove auditors at the completion of the audit or revert to Read Only, etc.
It would be great to be able to filter/sort the view by access type, such as looking only at Payroll Employees, or filtering them out.

AU Payroll - Manually including extra PAYG tax needs a zero cents validation
Typically Xero calculates all PAYG tax to be withdrawn from employees to the nearest dollar. Correct. However, the same check isn't in place if you manually add extra tax. In the past, I included extra tax to be withdrawn from an employee and included cents in the amount. At tax prep time, this caused a headache for my accountant. Xero could easily prevent this each time or warn you closer to the end of financial year to get back on track with zero cents.

UK payroll - Amend employee regular earnings if pay run hasn't been run
Please can you add a fix so that you can amend someone's regular earnings with the same start date if that pay-run hasn't yet been run.
You used to be able to do this, but recently you cant make a correction - instead you have to put the correct data on the next available date. This creates a second line on the payslip - which looks messy and clearly displays the fact you've made an error. Not something I'd choose to share.
1 voteHi Georgina, the salary line will only lock once it's been included in a pay run. Is it possible there is a pay run in draft? If so, you'd need to delete the draft pay run in order to edit the salary line.
If you're having any issues with this we'd recommend raising a case through Xero Central where our specialists can investigate this with you.

AU Payroll - Show the number of notes in the Employee 'Notes' Tab
It would be good to see the number of notes in the Notes Tab (perhaps in brackets, for example: 'Notes (2)'), so you can see at a glance, if there are any notes for the Employee and if yes, how many.

AU Payroll - Remove the letter "t" from Sept in the month field
Remove the letter "t" from Sept in the month field as all other months are only 3 characters long
1 voteThanks for your idea here, Rolf. Can't quite confirm the exact date this changed but you should now find the abbreviation for September in Xero Payroll has been changed to the 3 character long version 'Sep'.
If there is a specific place you're still seeing 'Sept' referenced please do let us know here and I can follow this up with our product team.

SG - Manually edit GST amount
There is a need to manually edit the amount of GST paid instead of using Xero's calculation. For example, for credit card merchant fees, merchants calculate GST based on individual transactions and sum up the total GST payable, add onto the merchant fees for the total amount payable. As Xero calculate GST based on the total amount, there is a difference in the GST payable. Other accounting systems allows you to adjust, and it will automatically adjust the total amount. Without this feature, we have to use either rounding (for below 0.10c) or add a new line item. The problem…
2 votesHi 👋 Xero calculates the GST on each line item in invoices, bills and other transactions. The GST is then rounded to the nearest cent. The total GST is the sum of these amounts.
We don't offer alternative rounding methods but if you have the global or Singapore versions of Xero you can enter a tax adjustment if you want to.
Simply,
- Select the Tax Exclusive option in the Amounts are field.
- Edit the amount shown in the Tax Amount box - if this box isn't showing, click the + symbol next to the Tax Rate heading
We have more information in our article here.

Xero Me: Allow multiple timesheet entries in one day when using start and end times
Add the ability to Xero / Xero Me for multiple time sheet entries per day.
For staff who work across multiple sites having the ability to add multiple time entries per day and either select a client to associate those entries against, or add a note for each time sheet entry would be fantastic.
Ultimately you would allow up to 6 time entries per day.Example
Monday
Time Entry1= 8:00 - 11:30am (note= site 1)
Time Entry2= 12:00 - 3:30pm (note= site 2)
Time Entry3= 3:30pm - 5:00pm (note = site 3)Doing this would improve the functionality and uptake…
6 votesHey team, apologies we've not got back to you here sooner. Our product team have implemented a change so you can now enter the start and end times in a timesheet, which enables you to enter time spend in multiple locations.

Xero Me | Expenses - Add stops for Mileage Reimbursement
Add the ability to add stops to mileage reimbursement. This way a person can add a round trip or add stops between the round trip to collect all mileage for the 1 trip.
15 votesThanks for the idea and adding your interest here, everyone. In lieu of a direct feature to accommodate this atm, you may find duplicating the claim to record each part of a trip useful in cutting down the data entry. We'll let you know if there's any change planned here.

Timesheets - New design has limited functionality
I have observed that the timesheets section in the payroll system has been updated. However, this update appears to have introduced several questionable design choices that hinder its functionality and efficiency.
Firstly, the employee list is not sorted alphabetically, which complicates the process of locating specific individuals. Secondly, the system no longer autofill's the default earnings rate, requiring unnecessary manual input. Thirdly, upon clicking the "Approve Timesheet" button, a redundant popup appears asking for confirmation of the approval, despite the action already being explicitly initiated. Lastly, when entering hours worked into a field, the system fails to clear the default…

Projects - Add people/staff without giving access
Adding staff working on a project without giving them access to Xero.
There is absolutely not need for staff to have access to Xero for me to log that they have worked on a project for 8 hours at £xx rate per hour.
I don't want to add this information to the ledger as the staff are payrolled so I cannot enter this as an expense but I would like to diarise time against the project so profitability can be calculated.

Tax Component Calculation - Xero should be calculating the sum of each tax component rounded for each line item.
Xero calculates tax per line based on the total tax value of all components then rounds this figure. It is later split between tax components.
Xero should be calculating the sum of each tax component rounded for each line item.
Image attached shows how Xero calculates a different value for two equal tax components due to this simplistic method it is using to calculate tax. What is the point in having the ability to set multiple tax components if this is not taken into consideration when calculating the total tax value per item.
2 tax rates, both set at 9%…

Bills - Record GST and employer deductions as bills and pay as batches
Where the business uses Xero for GST and payroll, it would be great to be able to create a bill off a finalised GST return or finalised payrun. To have the bill included in the payables automatically would ensure the bill is captured.
It would also be great to be able to pay GST and employer deductions with a batch file from Xero, just as we can with other bills. This would remove the need for manual loading of the payments in the bank and ensure the matching of the payment in Xero was a full circle to the…4 votes -
E-Invoicing - Setting the e-invoicing toggle button as default.
Could you please look at making the e-invoicing toggle button as default.
This will allow the invoices raised in Xero Practice Manager to be sent to Xero and then sent in Bulk (email multiple clients from awaiting payment) rather than selecting it manually. This will save a lot of time and also allow the other side to receive the invoice in their system.
Currently what it is doing is getting us to go into the invoice and then manually toggle this for clients we know are setup for e-invoicing. If this is handle automatically it will achieve its true purpose.…

Projects: Include labour costs from Gusto integration
I need to be able to track all my project expenses, including labor costs, for each project. All the labor data is already in Gusto, my payroll provider. Currently I have to create a report in Gusto then manually enter the data in Xero. I also have to manually maintain two lists of the same projects: one list in Xero, and one list in Gusto. I would like the Projects in Xero to synchronize (two way) with the Projects in Gusto. I would also like to be able to pull (or synch) the project labor cost from Gusto to Xero.

payroll - change the look back to the way it was (where you can see things at a glance)
I just updated the employees to STP2 and it has gone from a nice clean format where I can view everything at a glance to a horrible, lots-of-white-space, format now where I have to continuously scroll down to see the information. This new format looks terrible and creates more work for the user! This includes both the timesheet approvals page, and the Employee information tax / employment info pages.
1 voteHey Rachael 👋 thanks for sharing this suggestion.
To be transparent, we have no plans to revert the changes made to the Payroll screens.
These updates are part of “Building on Beautiful”, the work we’re doing to improve the foundations.
As every part of Xero starts to look and feel the same, it will be easier to make other important changes.
These improvements have already allowed us to deliver highly requested features such as Payroll History, and support for STP2.
You can read more about that on our ‘Building on Beautiful' page.

Bank reconcilliation - Allocate account transactions against each other.
Add a function to allocate transactions in an account against each other so you can easily identify which transactions are making up the balance (e.g. in a PAYE you would allocate the payment to HMRC against the payroll journal).
