AU Payroll: allowance/other earning types to make up annual salary on payslip.
We have constant feedback that we are not paying people in full because the field Annual Salary Field doesn't include allowances
Can it be the Grossed up salary package?
3 votesThanks for sharing your idea about having the total salary package amount showing on the on payslips.
Currently only employee’s ordinary earnings rate make up the annual salary visible on payslips.

AU Payroll - Match decimal places for Leave and timesheet hours when using start and finish times
Entering leave and timesheets need to tie in together. Currently if an employee enters start and finish times on their timesheet it creates four decimal places and when they enter leave for the same day it does not link to the timesheet and the employee enters their leave with two decimal places resulting in the days pay not being the full hours for the day. The reports for timesheets need to default to four decimal places if that is how it is going to be calculated.

Payroll AU > enter balance reducing deductions
It would be good to see deductions being set up for a fixed amount to deduct each pay until a total amount is reached with the option of paying the deduction to a third party bank account. Having to complete this manually and keep track is archaic!

AU Payroll - Preset Start and end date for Child support deductions
It would be useful for child support deductions to be able when we get the letter saying "this much from this date to that date and this much from that date going forward" to be able to put both those things in at the same time rather than relying on all-too-fallible humans to remember to go in and change the amounts on a particular date.

AU Payroll | Timesheet - Ability to Drag and drop hours between days
When entering hours and locations into the timesheet, if a day is selected incorrectly (for example, selecting Thursday instead of Friday), it would be very helpful to be able to drag and drop the hours to the correct day rather than having to delete and re-enter the time in the correct day.

UK Payroll - Ability to input HMRC payments in the taxes and filings screen
Within the taxes and filings screen that details tax months and the breakdown of liabilities, input cells beneath each value for PAYE, NIC, recoveries, etc, with the purpose of entering in amounts paid and reconciling the individual months. Most useful when overpayments/underpayments occur, or a business is on payment plan. The total for each month and overall total could then recalculate after each entry and the total balance owing should then reconcile back to the balance sheet. Essentially something similar to the VAT reconciliation function

AU Payroll - Employee Remuneration - Ability to view date employee last paid
Payroll report (or add field to existing), "date employee last paid".
We have a lot of seasonal adhoc casuals, it would be good to have a column in payroll reports showing the last pay-period they were paid in. We'd use this to off-board employees we haven't paid in a certain period of time (i.e. 12 months). We don't use Xero timesheets, so it can't be done this way.3 votesThanks for sharing your idea, and letting us know the change that matters to you.

Expense claims - Item field
Xero Expense claims do not provide the field "Item" when submitting an expense claim for small items of inventory purchased infrequently. This means the inventory items purchased via expense claims will not show up on the reports "Inventory Item Details" and "Inventory Item Summary" reports" and a separate reconciliation just on expense claims will need to be run in order to account for the true inventory balance.
3 votesHi Camilla, thanks for your engagement on this idea regarding an item field in expense claims. We know that it's not possible to add an inventory item directly to an expense claim and the current process to track inventory for an expense is to raise a bill instead. 📊 The team is still looking at the best way to address your feedback, and while we can't promise a timeframe just yet, please know that we will be watching this to see how much interest it might generate 👀

Xero Me - Add detail to notifications
Xero permissions are all or nothing - you either have access to timesheets and expenses or you don't. As such, you get a lot of notifications about things that aren't yours to deal with. It would be good to have a little more detail in notifications, for example; "There is a new expense from Robert Smith to review" so you know if it's relevant to you or not
3 votesThanks for sharing your idea here, Sophie. Atm our product team are working on a few changes for expense notifications - Once live there will be a few different scenarios for notifications
- When an expense is submitted users with the admin or approver role will receive an email notification that an expense is awaiting approval
- When an expense is approved or declined the user that submitted the expense will receive an email notification
- Users will no longer receive notifications when they take an action on their own expense
I'll let you know once these changes have been rolled out. But if there are other specifics in the notifications that you'd find helpful it would be good to hear these, too.

AU Payroll - Leave Accrual - Correct decimal places to stop over accrual.
Xero uses 4 decimal places when calculating leave accruals. As it doesn't use the standard 5 decimal places, like most payroll software, the amount of leave entitlement that you record from this in the liability account in the balance sheet and P&L expense is more than it should be.
But the bigger problem this is causing is the fact that it is actually giving the employee more accrued leave than they are entitled to.
Even though this is a small amount against each payroll, this will build up very quickly over time and as more & more employees are added,…

UK Payroll - Unscheduled pay run in advance should only stop updates to staff included in the run.
UK Payroll - when an unscheduled pay run has been posted for a period it stops any updates to salaries even when a full payroll hasn't been posted. It makes sense that a full run would stop updates but only people included in an unscheduled pay run should be barred from having updates applied. For instance, with an unscheduled run posted I can't adjust starting dates or salaries for staff, and these may have changed after the unscheduled run was posted.

NZ Payroll - Separate "Post" and "Submit to IRD" actions
Currently, when you connect your Xero login to myIR, Xero automatically files the pay run with the IRD as soon as it is posted. Unfortunately, there is no option to opt out of this automatic filing without disconnecting from myIR entirely.
It would be much more flexible if posting and filing could be done as separate steps. While it's possible to have another user who isn't connected to myIR handle this, small businesses often rely on a single person to manage the entire payroll process.
We would prefer to post the pay run, send payslips, complete banking, and then submit…

UK Payroll - move "scheme cease date" box to the HMRC tab
When closing a UK PAYE scheme in Xero Payroll, I struggled to locate the option to end a PAYE Scheme within the system but found guidance in Xero help resources.
I suggest moving the "scheme cease date" box to the "HMRC" Xero Payroll Settings tab for better visibility and less confusion.

AU Payroll - Show number of employee's allowed depending on subscription
Display number of employee's allowed depending on the subscription they're on, in the Employee list screen.
3 votesHi there, we're aware it's been a while since you've raised this case, so wanted to update you. We've reviewed this idea and whilst showing the number of employees allowed directly in the pay run isn't in the pipeline, we can suggest a workaround.
To confirm the number of employees included in a posted pay run within the current calendar month, you can run the Payroll Employee Summary report and filter it by posted date
The pay run’s posted date determines which month it falls under.
It's important to note that the plan limits for employees per month isn't set by the number of active employees, but by the total number of employees paid during the calendar month.
This includes any terminated employees paid during the calendar month and employees that have been included in a pay run with a blank payslip.

AU Payroll - Make employee groups mandatory
Please give us the option to make Tracking Groups a mandatory selection on the Employee tab before Xero users can save a new employee. This will stop users from setting up new employees & forgetting to assign the Employee Group tracking group which results in misreporting
3 votesHi team, while we appreciate your feedback and why you'd like to make this field mandatory not all businesses use tracking for payroll. We want to be upfront that we don't have any plans for making the employee groups field mandatory.

AU Payroll - Change the formatting of the Employee Summary Report file name
Since the latest Payroll update there seems to be no functionality in Xero to change how the name of the Employee Summary report appears when saved. There are too many _ between words, for example: JoeBloggsPtyLtd-PayrollEmployee_Summary 4 June 2024.
So frustrating. Bring back the old style PDF format.
