UK Payroll - Add tracking categories to automatic statutory recovery journal
Xero have added an automatic journal which credits salaries with the amount recovered from the government. This is great except we use tracking categories for all transactions in the P&L and the automatic journal leaves it blank. We have to post a manual journal to correct the posting. It would be useful for the automatic journal to include tracking.

Another case of incomplete functionality being implemented. Where is the quality control at Xero? Why would you implement something that does not work consistently with the rest of your solution? It is the same with the Payroll journal - rather than just create an ordinary journal it is a special type. When you view the journal it uses the usual enquiry screen to display it, but that by defailt doesnt show tracking codes and if you try to add the tracking code field because it isnt a normal journal it refreshes and returns no data.

We have similar issue as the Employment Allowance is left blank but the Employer's NIC is tracked, creating a mismatch.
