payday super reports
We need a report for Payday Super compliance. Included in this report should be Payroll payment date, Approval date, Bank payment date, Processed date. This would be handy to provide to repeat offenders of non-compliance for Payday Super

Payroll template modifications
Can you make it so we can modify the setup or template for our payslips. My logo currently looks **** and I’ve tried uploading a bigger size and it keeps reverting it to a tiny one that doesn’t look very professional

Dedicated Licences & Qualifications tab within each employee’s profile
A useful addition to Xero Payroll would be a dedicated Licences & Qualifications tab within each employee’s profile.
When adding or managing an employee, the employer could record items such as:
Driver Licence
High Risk Work Licence
Forklift Licence
Working at Heights
Confined Space
White Card
First Aid Certificate
Trade licences or other industry-specific qualificationsFor each licence or qualification, Xero should allow the employer to enter the licence type, licence/registration number, issuing authority, issue date, expiry date, and ideally upload a copy of the licence or certificate.
The most important feature would be automatic expiry reminders. For example, Xero…

distributing wages when making an unscheduled pay - add a warning
When making an unscheduled pay, add a warning for the user to review the distribution of the pay in the bank account section of the employee file. The reason is that if you make an unscheduled payment, which could be for many reasons, it cannot be assumed that the wage distribution to multiple bank accounts would be the same.

AU PAYROLL REPORT based on Pay Period End Date
AU PAYROLL: I strongly believe Xero should provide an option for the Payroll Employee Summary, Payroll Activity Summary and Payroll Activity Details reports to be run based on the pay period end date, rather than only the payment date.
This is particularly important for businesses that process monthly payroll where the wages relate entirely to one month, but the employees are paid in the first few days of the following month.
For example:
Pay period: 1 July 2026 to 31 July 2026
Actual payment date: 2 August 2026Under the current Xero reporting method, because the payment date is 2…

Display alert for any pending RTI or Pension file not submitted to HMRC or the pension provider
Feature Suggestion: It would be extremely helpful if Xero included a clear status indicator or tag for both RTI submissions and pension filings after a pay run has been processed but not submitted. Currently, there is no visible prompt or warning to show whether there is an outstanding submission pending to HMRC or the pension provider, making it easy for outstanding filings to be overlooked. A simple "Pending Submission" status, alert, or dashboard notification would improve compliance, reduce the risk of missed submissions, and provide greater confidence that all payroll obligations have been completed.

Deductions
It would be really helpful if Xero Payroll allowed a bank account to be linked to a specific employee deduction.
This would mean that when the deduction is processed through payroll, the amount could be included in the payment file and paid at the same time as the employee’s wages. Currently, these deductions need to be paid manually, which creates an unnecessary extra step and makes the process quite clunky.
Other payroll systems I’ve used, including PaySauce and iPayroll, already have this functionality.
It would also be useful where a deduction relates to a specific debt or loan for the…

classic expense claims - do not retire this feature
It is unreasonable for a team of 4 to pay an additional $35/month for this functionality, when it's not even used monthly.
Coupled with the user experience issues with 'new' invoices, bills and manual journals, this company has lost the plot, I'm afraid.

Payroll Journal
Payroll Settings: Payroll journal Employer NIC postings allow incorrect selection of the net wages liability account. This makes the balance on net wages meaningless and therefore useless. Employer NIC and Employer's Allowance should always be posted to PAYE or NIC liabilities accounts.
The solution is to ensure that the drop-down does not offer net wages or any other inappropriate accounts.

Payroll Journal Errors.
When using the UK Salary Sacrifice scheme, the payroll journal incorrectly posts the gross deduction to Net Wages Liability. This means the balance on Net Wages is meaningless and therefore useless and, worse, because this deduction should be an expenses credit, the Balance Sheet and Profit & Loss are both incorrect.
The deduction can only be posted to a current liability account, so although I can divert the posting from Net Wages to a special liability account, I then have to use a manual journal every payroll to post it from liabilities to the Salaries expense account.
This is serious…1 voteThanks for submitting your idea on Xero Product Ideas. We appreciate you taking time to let us know how we could improve Xero for you.

location label for regular locations
Colleagues regularly attend client sites on a rota, so it would be extremely useful to have the ability to label saved locations (e.g. Client/Site) and allow colleagues to select these when recording their location.
This would save significant time for colleagues, as they would no longer need to repeatedly look up client postcodes within ‘Contacts’. It would also make the information much easier and quicker for the admin team to audit and verify.

UK Payroll - Bulk Export of Employee Data
UK Payroll - Bulk Export of Employee Data
We sometimes need to TUPE staff across from one payroll to another when a business changes hands. If both businesses use Xero, it would be really helpful to be able to bulk export the basic employee data from one and import it straight into a new Xero Payroll.

NFP's Unite! - Add Payrun Identifier to Payroll Activity Details report
There's currently no way to display the Payroll Expense Journal identifier (such as PD-47) within the Payroll Activity Details report. This is a limitation of Xero's current reporting functionality.
When a pay run is posted, Xero creates a single general ledger journal titled Payroll Expense Journal - PD-[number]. The PD reference corresponds directly to the pay run number and payment date shown at the top of the Payroll Activity Details report for that period. This is the ONLY UNIQUE LINKING KEY between the general ledger and the employee-level detail in Payroll.
Many NFP's need to be able to report on…

Grrrrrr
That I need to pay an extra $41/month just to go from 1 employee per pay cycle to 2 is disgustinnnnnn'. More than double the subscription cost for something that is nowhere near more than double the functionality/productivity etc etc. UK Xero offers a per person charge, do better.

Submit expense and make new expense right after
"Submit expense and make new"
When submitting an expense from using the submit button on the website you often need to submit another. It might be a good idea to have a UI control either a check box titled new expense upon submit" or an additional button titled "Submit and create New Expense" which lets one speed up the process of putting in multiple expenses.
