AU payroll - Allow leave accrual on all Ordinary Time Earnings (OTE) regardless of rate calculation type
Problem: Xero only automatically accrues leave on OTE pay items if the rate is set to "Multiple of employee's ordinary earnings rate".
Impact: Custom hourly rates or flat-rate OTE pay items (e.g., higher weekend rates above standard award multiples) cannot accrue leave automatically, creating compliance risks and extra manual work.
Solution: Enable the "Accrue Leave" setting for all pay items configured as Ordinary Time Earnings, regardless of the rate calculation method selected.

Payroll Details on the Xero HQ page
Add payroll details on the Xero HQ Insights page.
In the same way that we can see the bank reconciliation data, we need columns that show the last pay run and the last date of super paid (or the earliest pay run of super that still needs to be paid). Earliest STP not filed would be good as well.
I understand that some entities will have multiple pay runs in operation but an indication of the last pay run processed, pay day suepr and STP filings would be af huge value in monitoring the situaiton for out clients.

AU Payroll - Superannuation - Track which user submitted the superannuation payment for authorisation
For the audit trail we need to track which user submitted the superannuation payment for authorisation either within the superannuation batch. This could be either within that superannuation batch payment, or in the History and Notes section of Xero.

Super Payments being able to be set up in advance
Being able to future date super payments in line with the payroll paid date would be useful. As a small business with part time employees and a monthly payroll paid on the 15th we process our pay and set the payment up in advance in our bank account for the 15th. Our option with super if the 15th lands on an authorisers non work day/unavailable for some reason is to pay the Super early or late and given xero is still taking the full 7 days to clear the payment being late is not really an option so being able…

Expense claims - Duplicate expenses warning is not helpful
A warning banner appears every time an employee makes an expense claim for the same amount as a previous expense claim. Many expense claims are for the same amount but for different dates. Can the warning please be improved to highlight only expense claims for the same amount and the same date?

In app bulk reconciliation
The app needs SO MUCH more functionality including the ability to multiple select transactions that aren’t tax deductions and then send them to an account all at once. That’s what takes up the most time, painfully going through every transaction separately. You should be able to multi-select a bunch and then send them to an account

SPPA Integration
Other payroll software integrates directly with SPPA so that at a click of a button you can export all the information you need for your SPPA Annual return. I know from speaking to my GP Practice Manager colleagues that this is the main thing preventing them from moving over to Xero Payroll. The reruns can be quite complex, especially if you have part time staff or staff starting part way through the year so this would make life a lot easier.

saving employee details form, TFN declaration and super form in Xero rather than expenal

Payroll Warning for Employees with Pending Leave Requests
When approving a pay run, Xero should check whether any employees included in the pay period have leave requests that are still awaiting approval and inform the payroll officer.
If pending leave requests exist, display a warning before the pay run can be completed, for example:
"2 employees included in this pay run have pending leave requests awaiting approval for the selected period."
This warning should work regardless of whether the business uses Xero Timesheets, enters payroll manually, or imports hours from a third-party timekeeping system.
Why this is important
In many businesses, leave approvals are performed by line managers…

New Pay Employees Screen Layout
New Pay Employees Screen - I do not like the new layout as it is not as visual as the previous one. Difficult to quickly identify status of a payrun. Brighter colours? Different layout or sorting options?

non-pensionable overtime
Earnings items - common ones such as overtime, bonus, commission, should have the option to untick pensionable. We need the rates overtime are paid, but also whether it is pensionable or not as a choice. Currently work arounds (using other earnings) does not give the rates, which is needed for overtime, and manual calculations are needed which takes longer and has a higher chance of errors. Surely this cannot be hard to adjust in Xero Payroll.

AU Payroll: Include total employer cost section within pay run.
Please show Super+Earnings on the payroll screen so I dont have to do the calcualation manually every month for every employee when trying to work out their pay which includes super. it would be a 15 min job to add this to the screen and would be very very helpful. see screen shot

AU payroll: Employee notes to display directly on new timesheet
Option to Choose Employee Timesheet Print Layout (Classic vs New)
The July 2026 update to the employee timesheet print layout has significantly impacted our business workflow.
Prior to July 2026, employee notes entered through Xero Me were displayed directly on the printed timesheet. This allowed us to quickly identify where an employee worked on each shift without having to open every individual note.
Since the update, the printed timesheet only displays "View Notes" instead of the actual note. While this may suit some businesses, it has created a major administrative burden for organisations like ours.
Our nurses regularly work across…

Payroll AU: Filter super payable by pay frequencies
Filter Super Payables by Payroll Run Name
Add a sort function to Super payable by Payroll Run Name
This will allow easy reconciliation of the super payment approval amount to the payroll run concerned.
We do multiple pay runs for different departments on 1 day so to be able to sort by pay run would be a great improvement & time saver.1 voteThanks for sharing your idea about filtering super payments by individual pay runs rather than just by pay period.
As you noted, when multiple pay run schedules share the same period, the current filter doesn't separate them. As a workaround, you can open the specific pay run and select Make Payment > Pay Super, as this will group the superannuation exclusively for that specific pay run.
As this is a community support platform it's up to the community to get behind and support your idea. Make sure you share your idea with any colleagues that this could benefit so they can add their vote too!
