AU Payroll - Future dated pay rate changes (Effective Dating)
I like to be able to change a payrate in advance but still be able to use the old payrate in the current pay runs. Then adding a new line for ordinary hours with the new pay rate if it starts in the middle of a pay week. This way you don't have to go into each employee to change the rate if you have a pay week where it is the old payrate for eg 2 days and the new one for 3 days. It's also handy when you have to set up pay runs in advance because you…

Payroll - Suggestion for a pre-submission alert/limit for negative leave balances in Xero Me
When employees are using xero me app to book leave and the amount of leave they are requesting will cause their leave balance to go to a negative, either the app needs to not allow them to submit the leave as they are in negative already or will go negative or an alert to say that they are/will be in negative that they then need to acknowledge to submit the leave.

AU Payroll - SGC statement report

AU Payroll - timesheet audit trail
Can we have an audit trail on Timesheets, please? If there is a dispute around timesheet entries, changes, submissions, retractions, re-submissions, approvals etc. it would be invaluable to have an audit trail for the employee. the approver and business owner to refer to. I was surprised this didn't exist as both Xero AI and ChatGPT explained how to find it! Sadly Xero Support confirmed this audit trail does not exist.

Expenses - Introduce Bulk Actions for Submission and Approval
Bulk Actions for Expenses: Restore Submit/Approve Many. With the retirement of Classic Expenses, a major efficiency feature has been lost: the ability to process expense claims in bulk.
The Problem: Currently, each individual expense claim must be opened, reviewed, and actioned one-by-one. For anyone who needs to approve 20 claims at the end of the week, this is an incredibly tedious and time-consuming process. What was once a 30-second task now takes many times longer.
The Solution: Reintroduce checkboxes and a bulk action menu to the expense claims overview screen. This would allow users to:
Select multiple claims.

UK Payroll - Amend employment contract information
Employment Information > Contract Details. I inadvertently ticked the wrong box for one of our Directors and it won't let me amend. You can amend pretty much most things in Xero but not this, and while it doesn't have any impact on the Director's status or pay, it is annoying that I can't amend or delete. It would be good to have this function in place. Or, just don't have it in place for Directors.

The Contract information is a new addition to the client information section and its great to get feedback on how this is working for our customers.

AU Payroll - Remove 250 payslip history limit in employee record.
The maximum of 250 historic payslips needs to be removed, or an option to turn it on or off in settings.
In legal forensic review work this is imperative.
While you can create a transaction report beyond 250 payslips, this does not provide the ability to identify the actual incorrect inputs by someone historically beyond the 250 limit.
There must be a simple setting in the background you can change or update, as when you add a new payslip, the earliest, previous payslip just drops off.
DO it NOW please.

AU Payroll - Allow to change settings for Decimal places.
Pay rates rounding by 4 decimal points causing an underpayment of wages. EG: Base rate is 25.65 x 1.5 = 38.475000 but the award rate is actually 38.48. Need a solution for this ASAP. Also change decimal place settings for pay slip and pay template items such as superannuation.

UK Payroll - option to bulk include/exclude all Employees from pay run.
For catering companies, or any business with many employees or recurring weekly staff, payroll can become stressful and very time-consuming. This is because all employees need to be unticked before running payroll for only those who actually worked in that specific week. Other companies face the same issue as well. Is there any shortcut to untick all employees at once before preparing payroll for the employees who actually worked in that week?
13 votesHi everyone, thanks for your votes and comments on this idea. It’s clear that a simple 'Untick All' option when creating a pay run would save you a lot of time. We understand that manually deselecting employees one by one is time consuming, especially for those who have a large number of employees but only need to process a pay run for a few. We will keep this idea updated as we move through any design and development phases.

UK Payroll - report to include employee bank details
UK Payroll report to include employee bank details - would like a report to run employee contact details which lists existing bank details
14 votesHi Joanne, thanks so much for all your feedback and comments on this idea. We totally get how handy it’d be to have a report in Xero UK Payroll that includes employee bank details.
Not having something like this can definitely add extra work and hassle—especially when you need to send bank info to a third party or double-check payments.
Right now, the idea’s in the ‘Gaining support’ stage, which means we’re keeping a close eye on how many people are voting and sharing their thoughts. The more input we get, the easier it is for us to understand how important this is and where it might sit in our list of priorities.

Xero Me - Ability to reconcile credit card expenses from a bank feed
It is impossible to us the credit card bankfeed function and allow for the credit card user to account for these expenses in Xero Me.
Solution: allow for credit card transactions to pull through into Xero Me via automatic sychronisation.

UK Payroll - Option to download RTI files in excel format
i have a query to resolve with HMRC regarding the difference between what is showing on our P32 and what payments they have taken/ FPS file received.

Payroll Journals - Customise Description for Transaction Reports to provide better context
When running reports to review Staff costs & looking into account transactions, Payroll journals provide descriptions that don't give correct/clear context. For example, under Employers Pension Contributions, the description provided is "Benefits" rather than Employers Pension Contributions. Or under Employment Costs it just says Earnings rather than "Gross Earnings". A final example was when an employee took unpaid leave, however the only description provided was "Deductions". This does not reflect clear context. It would be helpful if Xero had the means to be able to customise these descriptions or maybe have the option to ask Payroll/Reports to mirror the descriptions…
12 votesHi Sophie ✨, thanks for your feedback on this idea. We're well aware how the generic descriptions in pay run journals can be confusing when they don't align with your specific payroll settings. We understand that you've been using workarounds like exporting reports to Excel and manually editing them to get the detail you need. While this can help in the short term, we recognize it is a time-consuming process that shouldn't be necessary.We've shared your valuable feedback with our product team. As with all new features, we have to balance this against other development priorities. We can't promise a specific timeline, but the more support an idea gets, the higher it climbs on our list. Please continue to vote and comment on this and similar ideas to show your support. We'll be sure to provide another update when we can✨

Payroll AU - Maximum leave accrual limit or expiry dates for leave types.
It would be good to make it possible to either set a maximum leave accrual, or set an expiry date for leave. An example where it could be used would be study leave. We have an agreement with employees that gives them 7 days of study leave per year. Any unused study leave is forfeited after two years. Currently we have to manually monitor and adjust the leave.

AU Payroll - Calculate the length of service
Under the field "start date" have Xero automatically calculate their total length of service to the current date, and under the field "end date" once an employee is terminated, calculate their total overall service.
This would save the user from needing to manually calculating the service for notice periods, redundancy payments and long service leave in some states.4 votesThanks for sharing your thoughts on automatic length of service calculations in AU Payroll.
