NZ Payroll - Contractor pay items exempt from GST.
In situations where a contractor receives mixed payments (eg includes some exempt services), is it possible to apply GST only to the applicable gross earnings rather than automatically applying GST to the total earnings?
1 voteThanks for sharing your idea on processing additional GST exempt items on contractor payslips. Currently you'll need to apply a tax adjustment to the payslip.

AU Payroll - Allow Pay Frequency updates (without deleting future Leave/Timesheets)
For pay frequency for an employee, it would be good to be able to change this even if the employee has a pending leave request. Future leave or unprocessed leave has no relationship to the pay frequency if I want to pay an unscheduled bonus or other payment. This is very limiting as I may not be in a position to approve or process the leave before I need to change a pay frequency on an employee.

UK Payroll - Bulk add or amend pay items on employee pay templates
Ability to bulk amend pay template to cater for one offs payments to all employees - like a Christmas bonus
1 voteHi Lauren
Thanks for sharing your suggestion. I can definitely see how manual it is to add a Christmas bonus or one-off payment line for every single employee individually!
I’ve moved this to Gaining Support. Currently, pay templates in UK Payroll need to be updated one by one, so a "bulk update" tool would be a huge time-saver for larger teams.
I’ve updated the title to "UK Payroll - Bulk add or amend pay items on employee pay templates" to help others find it and add their votes.
Quick Tip for now: If this is a truly "one-off" payment (and not something you want on their template for every month moving forward), the fastest way currently is to add the Bonus pay item directly to the Draft Pay Run. Once you add the column to the pay run, you can enter the amounts for each person in one…

AU Payroll - Show multiple annual salary rates on payslips for multiple OTE lines
Can we please show multiple annual salary on the payslip if there is more than one ordinary time earnings rates. I would like to show a "secondment wages" line when a person is hired by another firm for one day a week as a breakup on the payslip.
1 voteHi Michelle,
Thanks for sharing this suggestion.I’ve moved this to Gaining Support.
Currently, Xero payslips are optimized to show a single primary annual salary, which can make things a bit confusing for employees working across multiple rates or secondments. Allowing the payslip to break down multiple salary bases would definitely add a lot of clarity for both employers and staff.
I’ve updated the title to "AU Payroll - Show multiple annual salary rates on payslips for multiple OTE lines" to help other users with similar needs find and vote for it.
Quick Tip: In the meantime, many users use the "Notes" section on the individual's payslip to manually clarify the secondment rate, though we appreciate an automated solution is the goal!

Contacts - When entering an expense claim, create a supplier contact with the employee bank account details
When an employee submits an expense claim for reimbursement, a new "supplier" contact record is created and the bill is assigned to this contact. When the contact record is created the employee's bank account details are not copied over to the supplier contact record. In order to pay them - using the batch payment screen, we have to load up their employee record and copy over their bank account details.
I am suggesting an enhancement to copy the employee's primary bank account over to their supplier contact record when the bill is created.

AU Payroll - Suggestion for improvement: Include 'Description' field in Leave Request report
We use the description field to identify when staff use different types of leave that reduce the PL balance, but require tracking - Moving Days, Wellbeing Days, Special Leave etc. Being able to include these descriptions in the Leave Request report enables us to keep track more efficiently.

excluding leave payments
AU Payroll - Excluding Leave request payments from Unscheduled Payruns
I would like to be able to exclude the payment of approved leave when processing an unscheduled payrun.
To illustrate, if I was processing a pre-Christmas bonus payrun for staff because the next scheduled payrun was after Christmas, the pay advice will include any unpaid leave hours that would normally be paid as part of that post-Christmas payrun, which then changes the total to be paid from the bank account & possibly the approved gross payment amount relating to the bonus.
Further, when you process the next scheduled payrun, Xero…

Expenses - Show remaining balance "To pay" if part payment is made.
The new dashboard shows the amount of the original expenses claim and NOT the balance outstanding and it is shown under the heading "To Pay". example I added an expenses for £340.10 and paid £200 so balance to pay is £140.10. However the tile shows £340.10 and will do until it is paid in full. This is misleading and means the liability is overstated. I think it should be amended so it is clearer.
1 voteHi Jenni, thank you for suggesting this improvement.
We completely agree that seeing the full original claim amount To Pay after a partial payment has already been made can be misleading. As you noted, this makes it difficult to see your true outstanding liability at a glance.

AU Payroll - Update so fixed amount bonus can be added and approved in timesheet
AU Payroll - Update so fixed amount bonus can be added and approved in timesheet
Currently employees can add into their timesheet a bonus or fixed amount pay item, but in Australia it seems Xero won't let the Payroll Approver actually approve a timesheet with a fixed amount item in it. So i have to take note if a certain employee is supposed to get a bonus this week, then delete it from the timesheet and then manually input it in the pay employees section.
There is so much room for error and employees risk missing out on wages they…1 voteThanks for sharing your idea about allowing users enter fixed amounts such as bonus/commission to timesheets.

UK Payroll - Reports - Backdate Posted Date/Payment Date functionality beyond August 2024
On the Gross to Net report, payments before August 2024 have a "posted date" set to the date the report was generated, which is incorrect. See attached example.
To reduce confusion, either:
- The Posted Date feature should be backdated so that payments before August 2024 show the correct "posted date"
- Payments before August 2024 should not state a "posted date" at all.1 voteThanks for sharing your idea, and letting us know the changes that matter most for you.

STP Finalisation - Add a prominent warning before finalising to confirm the year
The lack of warnings, pop ups or anything relating to accidentally finalising STP for the wrong financial year is pretty disappointing.
I work on a large screen and didn't see the tiny little 2025-26 drop down menu top right. I've selected the employees to finalise and proceeded with the wrong year. At no point was there a warning, note, message or anything to bring light to it being the wrong year.
Yes I know I should have concentrated more, yes I realise now the financial year is displayed at the top of the confirmation screen, but for something that has…1 voteThank you for submitting your idea and highlighting the key improvements you'd like to see.

NZ Payroll - transition employment basis instead of terminate
It would be great if could change casual employee to permanent without having to terminate the employee first and re-enter all their data and have to remember to delete their email address before adding to them as a new employee. It's especially annoying if they use XeroMe to submit timesheets. Other payroll such as IMS or MYOB don't require employees to be terminated and re-entered if their employment basis changes.

Expenses - Edit Submitter when awaiting approval
The expense reimbursement function should include an option to change the submitter after the request has been sent for approval, rather than declining the request and re-enter just to be able to update the submitter name in case of 'submitting on behalf'
Additionally, it should allow exporting the entered expenses into an Excel file to verify whether everything has been entered correctly. Currently, exporting is only possible once the request has been approved. This feature is especially important when there are numerous expense lines.
Furthermore, the screen layout feels a bit cramped. Could the input fields be arranged in a…
