Fix estimated leave balance calculation when future approved leave is already included in the current balance
The estimated leave balance in Xero Me appears to account for future approved leave twice, which can make the projected balance significantly more negative than expected.
For example, my current Annual Leave balance is:
Current balance: -78.34 hours
This already includes -98.80 hours of approved future leaveIf I select 1 November 2026 as the future balance date, Xero Me shows:
Estimated accrual: +5.85 hours
Approved leave: -98.80 hours
Estimated balance: -171.29 hours
The displayed result corresponds exactly to:
-78.34 + 5.85 - 98.80 = -171.29 hoursHowever, the current balance of -78.34 hours already includes the -98.80 hours of…

Flag if Terminated Employee is in new payrun
A pop up warning if payrun includes terminated employee would be great.
Final pay was done via unscheduled payrun and done as final pay, employee terminated. A week later, processing the normal pays, that employee popped in with a full pay period of pay - I'm guessing because his termination date fell within the pay period. I don't think he should have been included at all - but if it stays that way, then a flag that the pay run includes a terminated employee would act as a reminder to remove - or to process the final pay.2 votesThanks for submitting your idea on Xero Product Ideas.

AU Payroll - timesheet summary Report - Totals
It would be great if a total field can be added to the report. It is quite cumbersome to export multiple reports out to excel to just total the hours and then requiring deleting the download.
I currently do this monthly for all active tracking categories. The attached example shows the Grouping and the tracking category.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.

automatic splitting of superannuation by timesheet tracking category
Request for automatic splitting of Superannuation by timesheet category to avoid have to post manual journals after every pay run. Very time consuming when removing Super exempt pay items like overtime and allowances.
This is needed so we can process accurate Profit and Loss reports for all tracking catergor4ies in a timely and accurate manner.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.

Timesheets
There is no history on the Timesheets in the new mode ie: when the Timesheet was submitted for approval or when it was approved. Nor does it tell me who approved the timesheet. As we have a couple of people who are approving timesheets this is important to know when it was submitted & who approved it. Please consider including as it was in the previous version

When unticking payslips for people with no earnings, stop returning to the top of the page after each check box
When unticking the payslip box for employees with no earnings in that pay run (which is quite a lot for us in the winter) - stop returning to the top of the page after each box is checked, meaning we have to keep scrolling down again each time! Please stay at the same place on the page after each box is checked.
It should just be a simple script change?

More than just SMS Verification for Super PLEASE!!
We need more than just sms/text codes for super authorisation - this is a big issue when travelling in areas where our carriers aren't available - not receiving texts means that super will not be paid on time. Can't we have an authenticator as an option? This can always be accessed by wi-fi ( i realise emails are not that secure but authenticators are refreshed every 30 seconds and have a sign on to ensure security is maintained)

Payroll Activity Details report - please add filter or remove earnings lines that have zero earnings
Can you please either revert to the old Payroll Activity Details report that DID NOT show an earnings line that was not used for the pay period, or allow a filter on a Pay Item that has more than 0.01, like in the Payroll Activity Summary report? This report is now excessively long.

Employee self-onboarding:
Employee self-onboarding: need to be able to attach Fair Work Information Statement and Casual Employment Information Statement. This would a) save sending a separate email b) ensures this compliance step isn't missed. This is available in the third party on-boarding app 'Xonboard', as is the ability to sign employment contracts and upload Welcome videos.

Claude MCP ability to see draft invoices
I have fully automated my ordering system from receicpt of order in emails, to adding it to Saleforce. When sent, it creates a draft invoice in Xero. I'd like Claude to be able to periodically check my emails and flag order delivered emails to approve the invoice etc. Ideally write access would come soon too. It's the only part missing from my entire work flow.

Entering photo's of receipts.
Receipt entry seems overly complicated, When I snap a picture of a receipt for say a dinner, small purchase etc, why not have the option to save the receipt to the Awaiting Payment folder, then the correct bank, expense category, etc can be added from the desktop. This seems particularly important as making tax digital catches more and more small business and freelancers.

Folders in Employees note section
It is great that we can now add files in the Employee note section. However, it was be so much more beneficial if we could add folders so the file section is tidy and the files would be easier to find based on filing preferences. A list of documents is just messy.
This was stated in the first email when advising that files could be uploaded. But it didn't happen with the new release.

claude connector super
The Xero MCP connector currently exposes accounting data only — invoices, bills, aged reports, P&L, balance sheet, bank transactions. There is no access to payroll: no pay runs, no employees, no super payment batches, no super payment status or due dates.
This matters more since payday super commenced 1 July 2026. Contributions must now be received by the employee’s fund within seven business days of the pay date, rather than 28 days after quarter end. The compliance window is short enough that it needs monitoring between pay cycles, not just at quarter end.
Without payroll endpoints, any automated check has…

Superannuation - Late payment offset (removed)
Are there any Xero updates or developments in the works regarding the removal of the late payment offset for superannuation?
Under the new rules, where an employer has paid super late, they are still required to lodge a Super Guarantee Charge (SGC) Statement. However, the late super payment can no longer be used to offset the SGC liability and is instead applied towards future super obligations.
The difficulty we are experiencing in Xero is that the payment remains linked to the original late super obligation.
This means we currently need to manually calculate which future super obligations the payment can…3 votesThanks for submitting your idea on Xero Product Ideas. We appreciate you taking time to let us know how we could improve Xero for you.

Expenses - Option to submit NIL mileage claim
Allow users to put in mileage claims at a nil rate per mile.
This would allow the invoicing team to pick up mileage to charge to clients that is not claimed by operational staff: for example, where operational staff have a vehicle provided by the company.8 votes -
Expenses - Restrict tracking category options
Currently, all our tracking categories are available to those entering expenses, however, the majority are not relevant to expenses (although they are required for invoicing so we cannot remove them from the list). We would like to be able to chose which items in the categories are available and which are not, just like we are able to with the GL accounts.

Thanks for submitting this idea on Xero Product Idea's.
As you're aware, currently there isn't a restriction on which tracking options you can select when you're entering transactions and expense claims.

Xero Expense - Use date of last entry
When entering expense claims, the program should be set to retain the date entered in the last expense claim item. When catching up on accounting, it is cumbersome to be working on July in December and have to go back and change the entire date for each entry. I should be able to retain the last entry date on the next and simply be able to edit the day.
5 votesThanks for sharing your feedback here, David. Appreciate how this could be useful when entering back dated expenses. Have you tried enabling receipt scanning as an option to automate some of this data entry?

Expense Claims - Edit after it has been paid
It would be good if you could edit some fields in an expense after it has been paid, without having to undo the payment and redo. It would be the the same as for Bills where you can edit some fields after they have been paid.
We pay our bills in batches so to undo a payment means you have to undo a lot of payments and redo.
The fields we would like to edit (like a tracking category, or unassigning an expense as billable) do not affect the payment details.42 votes
