Require an SGC statement report ( a combination of Employee remuneration + payroll activity summary report) that includes all details required about the employee and super accrued on OTE + Overtime hours worked. This would enable efficient reporting to the ATO when super payments are late.

Payroll - Include Employee group category on the employee list
Xero has discontinued to display tracking category in the employee list - This means I now need to run a report to receive this information which will make processing pays longer so it's no longer a smooth process. I would like to see a return for this feature. Thank you.

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.
4 votesThanks for sharing your thoughts around the ability to amend the contract information. 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.

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. This should provide a more streamline approach to recordinng individual company card expenditure, remove time in reconciling missing receipts and remove duplication.17 votesHi everyone, we wanted to provide a quick update on the idea to enable reconciliation of credit card expenses directly within Xero Me.

NZ Payroll - Add fixed allowance capability to timesheets
Currently, employees cannot add allowances to their timesheet if they are setup as fixed amounts (i.e - nightshift allowance where an employee works at night)
An employee should have the capability of adding the allowances they are entitled to where appropriate. The approver would then review before approving.

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…
9 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 - Automatically pull across overtime to TOIL allowance in Leave.
If an employee does overtime which is TOIL, Xero should automatically pull this across into the leave allowances for the employee so that it can be taken. Currently you have to manually post everything which is time consuming.

NZ Payroll - Filter Payroll Reports by Tracking Category
The problem:
Xero Payroll does not currently allow reporting by Tracking Categories (e.g. by location, cost centre, or department). While Tracking can be applied to invoices and expenses, payroll reports (Pay Runs, Pay History, Payroll Activity, etc.) cannot be grouped or filtered in the same way.
For businesses with multiple locations under a single entity, this means payroll costs cannot be easily allocated to the correct branch. At present, the only workaround is to export payroll reports to Excel and manually tag employees, or rely on journal postings into the P&L.
What’s already set up
Employees can already be allocated…4 votesHey Timothy! It's great to see ideas like this from the community, thank you for posting it.

UK Payroll - Monthly P30 report

Leave balances reports with updated rates, when carrying leave accruals for leave liabilities, rate changes in employee remuneration is commonly the reason for increases in accruals monthly, although not obvious from a reporting summary.

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.

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
6 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.

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 - Option to print timesheets in Xero
Once an employees timesheet has been processed and approved it would be handy to be able to print the completed timesheet off for filing away as a hard copy.
At the moment you have to process and approve the timesheet which automatically takes you back to the list of timesheets to be approved/already completed only to have to turn around at open the same one back up and select the 3 dots at the top as have shown to print the whole page which is incredibly frustrating. Can we please look into having a print option??

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 - Payroll Admin to create Time Sheet templates on behalf of employees
An Upgrade to the Timesheets function that would allow businesses to create permanent, personalised templates for individual employees.
Currently, timesheets need to be manually updated each pay period, which increases the risk of inconsistency and errors. Having the ability to set up fixed Earnings Rate descriptions as part of a permanent template would make timesheets more efficient, accurate, and tailored to each business.
For example, it would be very useful if a timesheet template could include pre-set lines such as:
Ordinary hours – Direct
Ordinary hours – Operating
Overtime hours (exempt from super)
Overtime hours (including super)
Overtime Mon–Sat –…

Payroll - Untick all Employees
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?
6 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.
