Payroll Journals
Allow facility to turn off payroll journals so they aren't automatically posted into the accounts.
Problem: Business which operates in departments and wants COS payroll journals and overhead journals. Unable to split out the NICS/PAYE through payroll, meaning the auto postings have to be reversed every month and new ones created to allow the split of costs into the P&L.
Ideal solution: Allow Xero payroll to split NICS/TAX/Pension costs into ledgers by departments which will negate the need to reverse the auto journals and create manual ones.

I agree 100%. Xero auto payroll journals bring me more works not less.
In our company's cases, some departments are allocated under COS and other departments are allocated under overheads in P&L.However, with current Xero payroll, we can't distinguish the expenses and liabilities by departments as per our finance reporting model.
Honestly, I regret introducing Xero payroll to our finance team currently. It's much more uncomfortable to use and the auto payroll journal is useless..
Did you find a way to reverse the auto journal by the way?
