Global Payroll: YTD Earnings and deductions on Payslips
An Employee's payslip gives the current pay period earnings, deductions and net take home pay. It's missing YTD earnings and deductions information on a payslip. Please consider including the same in your future updates. Thanks, We are a Canadian based business.
3 votesHi community, we’re making some changes to Global Pay Run to help you manage your payroll more effectively;
- From 23 July 2025 Global Pay Run will become read-only. You'll still be able to see all your past payroll information, however you will not be able to process any new pay runs after this date.
- Global Pay run will be retired after April 2026, at which point you'll no longer be able to access pay run.
We appreciate your input on how we can improve Xero for you, however with this change coming we don't have any plans to further develop Global Pay Run, and will move any ideas related to this on the site to Not planned.
If you're from a region where we offer dedicated payroll products (AU, NZ and UK) specifically designed for your regions unique requirements, you may want to explore transitioning to Xero…

UK Payroll - Be able to download payslips by employee group instead of one big batch of all employees
When you're in the pay run screen, you can only download ALL payslips as one PDF file. We need to be able to download payslips by employee group so they can be sent to the individual managers of the employee groups for review/approval.
18 votesThanks for your patience, it’s been a little while since you raised this idea, so we wanted to check in. We've now reviewed this idea and have moved it to Gaining Support status. Our product team are keeping an eye on this idea and we will continue to share updates as things evolve.

Global Pay Run - Hide Voided Pay Run from Main Pay run page
Hiding Voided Pay Run from showing on the Main Pay Run Page.
It will be great to have a functionality that allows you hide payruns that have been voided from showing on the main payrun list.
When approved payruns cannot be edited, the only option is to void and create a new one. If a functionality can allow editing approved pay run, then there will be no need. But now, we need to have a function to hide the voided payruns.
A screenshot has been attached for clearer understanding for voting and implementation.

UK Payroll - Payslip - editable Email Template
We need to change the subject line for our payslip email template to include the word Confidential so that we meet our ISO standard
14 votesIt's been a little while since this idea was raised & we wanted to touch base with an update. We can see that this idea has been steadily gaining support, so have updated the status.

AU Payroll - Support for more than 4 employees on Payroll Only plan
I have a client moving to a different platform for accounting but still needed a stand alone payroll platform for 23 employees and Xero does not offer this so we would be paying for all the other functionality that we won't be using to stay on Xero for payroll
4 votesHi everyone, though we appreciate the feedback we've received from you on plans here - as you'll have had communication of, with the launch of our new plans we made the decision to no longer offer a Payroll Only plan.
Payroll is now offered within our Grow, Comprehensive and Ultimate plans that you can read more detail of what's encompassed with each on our website.

Expenses claim - Access to suppliers list for reimbursable claims
When entering an expense claim you can only assign it to a supplier if you paid with company money. If you pay with personnel money the supplier field is only free text and doesn't list suppliers to choose from.
I would like it so that we can search for suppliers and see everything that has been purchased from them no matter if it was paid directly to them or from one of our team members' back pocket.

Xero Expenses - Ability to change 'How did you pay' through Xero Me app
Xero Expenses - be able to change an expense claim submitted by an employee through the Expense App as Personal money (reimbursable) to Company Money (non-reimbursable). Currently within Xero Expenses, you can change the 'How did you 'pay' on an employee's submitted expense only if it was processed as Company Money (non reimbursable). It would be good if we could also do it the other way round in that if an employee submits an expense on the app as Personal, it could be changed to Company.

NZ Payroll - Automate Sending Payment File to Bank
When payrun is done in Xero, the payroll payment file will be automatically sent to the bank (without authorisation). This could save the time of exporting payment files and import payment files to the bank.
1 voteHi Sung Tak, appreciate you raising this with us however we want to be upfront that we don't have any plans around this. This process requires user input as a means of validation. If automated it could cause issues when making corrections to pay runs, or if a pay run was accidentally posted.

NZ Payroll - Add 'Cash up - Sick Leave' pay item
As a small business it is hard when employees take time off when sick especially with 10 days now. We have an incentive in our contract to either roll these over or cash them up however this is not available through Xero.
1 voteAppreciate you sharing detail and why you'd like a cash up option with us here. Being open, as this is more specific to your business(not regulatory) we don't have plans for adding a cash up option within NZ Payroll.
However, there are currently two ways you could achieve this within Xero Payroll today
- Leave the Sick Leave maximum to accrue value as nil this will allow an indefinite roll over of sick leave
- If you're wanting to cash up then enter a sick leave request for a single day and enter the total value of a week to cash up with a description of cash up
We hope this can meet the needs you're after in recording cash up for sick leave. Thanks

Payroll: 'Save and close' option in draft pay runs
At the moment, inside an individual's payslip/pay run, the button options are 'save', 'save and next' and 'close'.
A button for 'save and close' would be ideal when only one or a few employees (not the whole batch) need to be manually viewed and edited. Instead, we need to click 'save', wait for the page to load again, scroll down and click 'close' to return to the pay run employee list.
4 votesThank you for your contribution and support on the idea. We understand that the ability to easily save and close in one click would benefit your workflows, however to be upfront we don't have direct plans for making this change within the payslip in the foreseeable future.
We appreciate this is not the news you’d hope to hear, but we'd like to be open and transparent with you on this, here.

To be open, with STP2 now released and majority of organisations having already updated their employees we want to be upfront we don't have plans for making this change.

AU Payroll | Employee - Second Emergency Contact Option
Could we please have an option to add a second emergency contact for our employees.
Currently when creating a new employee we only have one space for an emergency contact. However, in the case of an actual emergency only one contact may not be enough, a second contact gives a much higher chance of being able to get in contact with someone.
2 votesHi everyone, thanks for the idea and support here.
We appreciate being able to easily add a secondary emergency contact to the details tab of the employee record is important to you.
Atm, you could use the notes tab to add a new note to the employee record and include the details in here.
To be open we don't have direct plans for making this change within the details tab any time in the near future.

Expense claims - Recurring expenses
Ability to create recurring expenses in expense claims area in Xero.
Purpose: To save users’ time from entering their regular expenses in Xero manually.
58 votesHello everyone, thanks for the detail and support shared for this idea. We understand how recurring expenses would enable efficiency when you have frequent expenses of a similar nature (like subscriptions), so have moved the idea to Accepted.
Currently there is work needed within expenses to enable us to develop this capability. Once we're in a better position to be able to dive deeper into this work, we'll review all of your suggestions and share any progress with you here.
