AU Payroll - Payroll Advisors to receive Superannuation email notifications
Please include all Payroll Advisors in Superannuation bounceback email notifications.
Currently, only the Super approver receives an email notification when any super payment has bounced. Often, the Super approver does not pass this on in a timely manner, and it's not practicable to be constantly refreshing the Super Payments screen to check for any bounces, particularly for Accountants who manage multiple organisations in Xero.
With Payday Super coming in to effect on 1 July 2026, the window for ensuring super is paid is very tight. If only the Super approver is notified, they may not have the ability act accordingly…
134 votesHi team, we appreciate the interest here especially with upcoming Payday Super. I'd like to share that notifications and prompts are being developed with some of the changes we're working on, and achieve what's being asked here.
I'll round back when this is live and confirm what these look like to help in your processing of Superannuation here.

AU Payroll - Payday super reminders
With the pending Payday super requirements, can there be a reminder or a "can't progress" feature to prompt the person processing the payroll to also pay the Payday super?
Can the business choose to pay superannuation using BPay details instead of linking to a bank account?
42 votesHey community, thanks for your engagement about your needs in Payday Super.
As you may have seen, we've introduced a new auto super overview page which indicates the number of contributions that need attention/are past their expected payment date, as well as batches that need your attention too.
We have plans for developing send email notifications that'll be triggered to all payroll admins;
- 1 day after the expected payment date has passed, and again
- 7 days after if no action has been taken
We'll keep you updated on these notifications here and encourage your continued feedback.

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 - Set up multiple auto super authorisers
Having multiple people as a Super Authoriser would be helpful when the 1st person goes on leave.
619 votesThanks for continuing to share your feedback and engage with us through this idea, everyone.
We recognise the importance of providing greater flexibility when managing the authorisation of super payments, particularly now that Payday Super is in effect.
I’m pleased to share that we’re working on an update to authorisation for Xero Payroll’s auto super.
You’ll soon be able to nominate a list of eligible authorisers when setting up auto super or editing an existing registration. Each super payment will still require approval from one person, but you’ll be able to select which nominated authoriser receives the SMS code for that payment.
We’ll share another update as soon as this is available.

AU Payroll - Superannuation end of quarter reminder
Would be great if Xero could trigger an automated (email and/or text) reminder to the superannuation payment approver 10, 5 and one days out from the superannuation due date each quarter.
A similar reminder feature already exists in XPM for Activity Statement Lodgements - reminders can be turned on.
Xero also has the ability to automate reminders to Customers around bill payment.
Xero has the email and SMS of the superannaution approver already on file.
Advantage of these reminders:
Super gets paid on time - we're all human and life can take over and sometimes things get missed - a…
184 votesHey everyone! Thanks so much for your feedback and for sharing your thoughts on this. It’s clear from the support this idea has gained that automated reminders for superannuation payments could be a huge help for many of you. We hear you and can see how this could make managing your obligations smoother.
Our product team has taken a look at this and we’re exploring how we can build it in to help you stay on top of the proposed PayDay Super changes. It’s on our roadmap, and we’ll keep you posted as things move forward. 🙂

AU Payroll | Timesheet - Ability to add allowances of other unit types
When operating tracking income and expenses in two areas, payroll allows for the primary tracking category when setting up the employee and the time sheet allows the secondary tracking option to be selected.
Currently the timesheet option only allows for the 'hours worked' to be allocated to the secondary tracking option. Any allowance can only be added at the pay run which means it cannot be added to the secondary tracking category.
Can we have the ability to add allowances as an option in the timesheet?
192 votesHi everyone, I wanted to share another update regarding timesheet flexibility.
Our product team is currently working on a feature that will allow employees to add other unit-based earnings types directly to their timesheets via Xero Me. This means your team will soon be able to record allowances and other non-ordinary earnings pay items alongside their regular hours.
We know this has been a highly requested feature to help reduce manual adjustments for admins. We are currently in the development phase and will provide a further update here once we’re closer to a release date.

UK Payroll - Export payment file in CSV format
UK Payroll: Payment file csv format
Lloyds bank doesn't accept .txt format. It would be great if we could download a csv payment file to upload the employee pays to the bank.92 votesHi team, we'd like to share another update as work for allowing direct wage payments via open banking with Crezco is well underway.
We look forward to updating everyone on this idea as soon as this is released.
As previously mentioned - we want to be upfront that we don't have any plans for extending the payment file export format to CSV, however direct payments will eliminate the need for a manual export saving you a few steps in this process. 🙂
