Global Pay Run - Ability to select payable account for Deductions, Taxes and Post-tax Deductions pay types
The feature request is to allow the defining of current liability accounts for pay items with pay types set to Deductions, Payroll Taxes, and Post-tax Deductions. This will enable the tracking of payroll source deductions and taxes necessary for remittance reports to the tax authority (such as EI, CPP and income taxes for T4 and T4 summary completion in Canada).
There are two ways I believe Xero developers could achieve this goal.
Below is an explanation of what currently happens during pay runs:
For pay items with a pay type set to Wages, Allowances, or Non-taxable Allowances, the journal entry is credit Wages Payable the amount of net pay and debit the expense account defined when setting up the pay item. A separate pay stub is created for each employee that acts similar to a bill but is not editable. You must void the pay run and recreate if an error was made.
For pay items with a pay type set to Deductions, Payroll Taxes, Post-tax Deductions, or Employer Contributions, the journal entry is credit Accounts Payable for the full amount and debit the expense account of the expense account defined in the first pay item selected from the group above on the paystub, with exception of Employer Contributions which you can define the expense account when setting up the pay item. Xero will create a separate bill for each of these pay items in the name of the Contact defined when setting up the pay item.
To void a pay run, you must first remove all payments applied to bills or pay stubs related to that pay run. Voiding deletes all pay stubs and bills created for that pay run.
The first strategy would be to select a different accounts payable account for the pay items Deductions, Payroll Taxes, and Post-tax Deductions in the pay item settings.
The second strategy would be to allow editing of the bills.
I recommend the first strategy as the voiding logic would have to be changed as much. But this doesn't resolve the issue of having to void the whole pay run if you want to make a change of which account the transactions are posted to.

Invoice Settings - Separate Number Sequence for Credit Note
Currently, in the Automatic Sequencing setting, the invoice & credit note share the same number sequence. However, for tracking purpose, we prefer to have a separate number sequence for credit notes. Therefore, would like to request an additional 'Next Number' field for credit note, which can come with an option to share or not to share the number sequence with invoice.

Dashboard | Account Watchlist - Change the order
On the dashboard, be able to reorder the accounts in the watchlist. At the moment they are shown by default in alphabetical order and can't be reordered.
23 votesHi community, as much as we were amped to share that there was work begun to solve for the idea, unfortunately this has been pushed back for now while the team get through a few other developments that are taking priority. As soon as there's change or news to share around the Account Watchlist we'll update you on this, here.

AU Payroll - Ability to calculate Super accruals for U18s working less than 30hrs/wk
Currently, Xero lists a super accrual for employees under the age of 18 when they earn over $450/mth. However, it doesn't take into account how many hours that employee works per week. Under 18s are not eligible to be paid super unless they work over 30 hours per week (even if they earn over $450/mth), but Xero doesn't recognise this. Unfortunately this shows up a s liability for the employer, even though a liability doesn't exist. I know that it can be worked around in the pay run, but it just means extra work for the payroll admin - particularly if they have a lot of employees. Xero should automatically be able to see calculate that an employee is under 18, and whether or not they employee has met the 30hrs per week criteria before calculating any accrual for the employee.

Reporting - Allow Memo Accounts for non-financial information
We would like to be able to capture non-financial (eg head count) and statistical numbers (eg Order Book) in Xero and add it into Xero reports alongside the existing financial information for management reporting
Currently it seems that accounts that are added automatically appear in the Chart Of Accounts.
Could another Account Type be created that allows memo accounts to be created outside the CoA?3 votes -
AU Payroll - Option to add ETP Type D
We have had the unfortunate event of an employee pass away whilst still employed.
I would like to suggest that Xero make it easier for companies to be able to process a death benefit payment (ETP - type D) within the system rather than having to process this manually and then having to do journal entries for the system to balance correctly. And to then have to process paper copies of PAYG payment summaries to report this to the ATO.

AU Payroll - Show leave balance on payslip without accruals
Australian Payroll - sick leave on payslip - want to show balance without accrual in the payrun, and to be able to do this after employment has commenced. Currently this is only possible if you allocate the full balance to employee's at the start of the employment. Historically this has not been done and it needs to be changed to avoid staff confusion and having to reset the leave each payrun.
3 votesHi team, being open we don't have any plans around this atm. Currently to do this you would set the leave type calculation to 'No calculation required'. This will allow you to set the balance and have any accrual column showing.

Chart of Accounts - Ability to lock individual accounts
The lock date feature is great for preventing back posting as a whole but we would benefit from a lock feature for specific nominal accounts - to prevent colleagues posting to a specific account until dates are unlocked.
32 votesThanks for your idea, Sarah - We'll get a sense of the interest here.
Perhaps in the meantime you could look to use the Archive and restore options for an account in your chart of accounts as a way of managing this?

AU Payroll - Remove terminated employees
Ex Employees older than 5 years cannot be deleted. Data still contains payslips. Old data can be overwritten but payslips remain and employee cannot be deleted because Xero thinks it is in a payrun. This is a cyber security breach as old data of ex employees can still be accessed and cannot be deleted.

Bank Feed - Better Identification of Bank Institutions
When searching for a bank institution, you all should allow for searches for the bank URL home page and also include a logo of the bank with each institution. For example, 'First Bank' has 40 different institutions and each sound similar to the next. Please consider creating better identifiers for each bank institution Xero integrates with. (QBO does this)
13 votesHi community, our Product team have recently made an improvement to the flow of adding a bank account in Xero. To make the task of adding a bank easier in Xero, we've enabled the option to click the information icon next to a bank and view it's URL so you can identify that you're selecting the correct bank when connecting a bank feed.
We appreciate this isn't the direct ask in the idea of being able to search by URL, and while we'll continue to monitor the feedback on this here we don't have direct plans for developing the ability to search URL at this time.

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.

Invoices - Bulk send receipts for paid invoices
If you receive a lot of payments on the same day (20th of the months) would be useful to select the paid invoices all at once and send the receipt to all clients at the same time rather than have to open every single transaction and send the receipts individually
Alternatively could be a feature on invoices were you choose to send receipt automatically upon payment received.

Inventory - More decimal places for Quantity
It would be useful to add possibility of using long figures of quantity when entering inventory transactions. For now only 4 decimals are allowed. On practice it would be great if up to 10 would be possible.
