UK Payroll - Allow leavers to access payslips after 14 days
Leavers can only access payslips 14 days after leave date. 14 days is not enough time as the final pay ay not have been processed at this time. So final payslips then becomes a manual process. If P45's could also be accessed that would be great.
30 votesThanks for sharing your idea, we understand sometimes employees need access to payslips beyond 14 days after their leaving date.
We've reviewed your idea and now it's up to the community to get behind and support it. Make sure you share your idea with any colleagues that this could benefit so they can add their vote too!

AU Payroll - Streamline deduction payments
Under the employees deductions sections during payroll, if one has salary sacrifice, child support, and any other deductions, you have to process the pay run initially. And then you would have to manually do a separate payment to a payee
Is it possible to have a payee that can be linked to the payroll deductions. Meaning when you run your payroll, the deductions will go against the payee and when the payroll aba file is created, the payee will be included in that aba file
Alternatively create a deduction for payroll that can be linked to a bank account. Currently…

AU Payroll - Include date range in exported version of Payment Summary Details report
When running the Payment Summary Details report for a previous financial year, the report does not show the dates of the financial year the data belongs to. The report is titled Payment Summary Details as at Today's Date. For example: it should show Payment Summary Details reporting period 1st July 2017 - 30th June 2018. For audit purposes, there is no way of determining the date range the reported data relates to.

AU Payroll - Option to set week ending date on Timesheet Detail report
The week ending period on the Timesheet Detail Report is Monday to Friday and cannot be adjusted.
Oaur pay week runs from Wednesday to Tuesday. We have to duplicate data on an Excel spreadsheet for reporting for management.
It would be very useful if the week ending period could be edited so we could use the reporting in Xero and save time processing payroll.
29 votesThanks for sharing your idea on filtering the Timesheet Detail report in-line with your pay schedules. Currently you can customise and re-order the Columns, however there is no direct option to filter on a singular pay frequency or pay period.

AU Payroll - Approve leave request from email
Approve employee leave requests directly from notification email.
As a Leave Approver, I want to be approve or reject leave applications directly from the notification email so that I don't have to continually login.
29 votesHi everyone, thanks for sharing your thoughts on this. We agree that streamlining leave approvals would be a time saver. However, approving leave directly via email raises some security concerns. Allowing updates to sensitive payroll records without a secure login creates risks around unauthorised access.
While we do have upcoming improvements planned in the leave space, approving leave via email won't be part of those changes. Currently, approvers can easily review and approve leave requests on the go using the Xero Me app.
Thank you again for your input and understanding.

Expenses: Automatic mileage tracking
Quickbooks has "motion tracking" mileage, meaning the user doesn't have spent time entering their starting and final postcodes, they literally just turn the feature on and it auto records their mileage via GPS. I have clients (using Xero) who are on the road everyday for business purposes and this feature would be so useful for them to save time.
29 votesHi everyone, thank you for feeding back and sharing with us through the idea here. We appreciate why you'd like to see automated mileage tracking developed within Xero expenses.
While our team have a keen eye on the idea and interest in exploring this in the future we want to be open that resources are across other important work atm and there are no plans to develop this, this year.
We'll continue to track the interest and keep you updated of any change for this through the idea, here.

AU Payroll - Ability to enter timesheet hours in previous payrun
Timesheet entry for hours in previous payrun. This allows employees who missed an timesheet entry to add their hours in . Quickbooks has this ability and it saves the employer from having to do a manual entry on the employees behalf.

AU Payroll - Ability to customise self onboarding form
It would be very helpful if we can add custom fields on the self-onboarding form to get the information that are specific to an organisation.
28 votesAppreciate organisations have different needs and details that they'd collect from employees. It's great to hear you're making use of self onboarding and we'll get a sense of the wider interest for customising this from the community here.
This isn't something we have plans of at present but will share if there are any updates.

Xero Me - Allow timesheet templates use in Xero me App
Hi,
Our employees work standard hours each day, but in addition to this there are often additional items on their timesheets, such as overtime, trip and overnight stay bonuses.
The use of timesheet templates simplifies this process by automating the inputting of their standard hours, though due to the remote nature of their work timesheets are being submitted through the mobile application which does not allow the uploading of templates.
Can the ability to upload templates be added to the mobile app or a default template be added when creating a new timesheet?

NZ Payroll - History and notes in Payroll to show changes made
There should be an audit trail in Payroll detailing when changes to an Employee record is made (for example: date an address was updated for an employee and what it was until that date, likewise for other details such as email address, bank account number, tax code etc). As an Employer we should be able to rely on the digitised Payroll system we are using to determine when changes to an Employee's record has been made. In terms of creating an audit trail, this doesn't necessarily only apply to Payroll only and should ideally be something that is normal and…

AU Payroll - Option to rehire employees using the same employee record
Xero recommends creating a new, duplicate employee record when a terminated employee returns to the organisation. This can also happen when an employee switches from permanent to casual, as they need to be terminated to pay out annual leave.
Due to HR add-ons that make the issue of setting up a new, duplicate employee in Xero extremely complicated and almost unworkable, I would really like to see an additional workflow in Xero to handle this. When unterminating an employee, I'd like to see Xero asking whether we're doing this to fix something or because we're rehiring the same employee, at…

AU Payroll - Ability to remove leave types incorrectly assigned
Need to be able to remove a leave type for employees. Ie an employee is entitled to 4 weeks annual leave p.a.. They have renegotiated their contract and are now entitled to 5 weeks AL p.a. I've set up a new leave type to accrue 5 weeks p.a. for this employee and asked that they use this option when submitting future requests. I have changed the AL 4 week code to No Calculation for this employee, however it still appears as an option when they request leave. I would like to remove this as an option because they continually inadvertently…
28 votesThanks team, we understand how beneficial it’d be to archive or remove unused leave types from employee records to keep things tidy.
It’s something we're exploring as part of our payroll modernisation work, however it hasn't been planned just yet.
We'll keep monitoring your input here and update the thread if this moves into active development. Thank you again for taking the time to share your thoughts on this.

UK Payroll - Ability to customise pension letters on Xero
For some clients we use Xero's Postponement and Eligibility letters. This has proved very useful but currently the letters cannot be customised.
We have a client for example who pays a higher employer contribution percentage than the standard. The letters however, only show the standard percentage's despite the settings being different to the standard. We also have a client who has asked for their company logo to be added to the letters.
After speaking with Xero Central I was informed that the letters currently cannot be customised and don't pull from the pension settings.
If this could be looked into…
28 votesThanks for sharing your idea on customising pension letters in Xero.
As you're aware, it's not currently possible to amend the details on the pension letters. These letters state the minimum requirements outlined by the Pensions Regulator.
We need to be upfront that customising these letters is not on the foreseeable roadmap, so we'll update this to Not in Pipeline. If you want to edit the details or wording of the letters, this would need to be done outside of Xero.

UK Payroll - Add reimbursed expense to gross to net report
The gross to net report currently doesn't include reimbursed expenses, and possibly other things we haven't found yet so the net pay doesn't agree to the payslips! Please can we have a gross to net report that agrees to payslips? Failing that even a report that shows reimbursed expenses per employee would be better than nothing.
28 votesHey all, thanks for sharing your feedback on having reimbursements show on the Gross to Net report. Currently this report only captures taxable income.

Expenses - Ability to set default for payment due date
It's good that the ability to set the due date of each expense is now available. However, there still is no way to set a default due date for all expenses, such as the last day of the month.
It will take a lot more time to select each expense and manually change the due date from today's date, especially where there are dozens of expenses to approve.
This is the sort of thing that software should do for us - streamlining workflows and handling monotonous actions automatically.
Could all users who read this vote 'critical' so that Xero will…
27 votesAppreciate the feedback, Justin and understand still needing more from this feature.
This is something we'll continue to consider and will keep a close watch on this idea in the community here.
I'll make sure to share if there are any further updates planned for this with you here.

AU Payroll - Include a comparison field in Payroll Reports
Payroll reports - it will be good to have a COMPARISION field on payroll reports just like the P&L - to compare with previous n number of months / periods.
While the grouping / summarizing features are good - they are limited to just reporting on a particular period.
Hence any Comparisions are tedious to run / export and consolidate on excel.
For. eg. I'd like to run a report to display :
Afternoon Shift Loading & Overtime work for a month OR the full FY with monthly columns.
Is this something we can get to without having to export…27 votesThanks for your patience, it’s been a little while since you raised this idea, so we wanted to check in.

Expenses - Export expense claim receipts
Expense claims - Download all pdfs submitted by employees
27 votesThanks for sharing this idea with us 🙂 We understand why being able to download attachments directly from an expense claim would be useful, especially where customers need to keep a copy of supporting documents or work with multi-page files.
We’re continuing to see interest in this idea, and recent feedback suggests support for this capability is growing. That helps build a clearer picture of the demand and the value this change could bring for customers using Expenses.
While we don’t have any plans or timeframe to share right now, the idea is gaining more visibility through feedback and engagement. We appreciate you taking the time to add your support and we’ll continue to share updates if there’s any progress in future.
