AU Payroll - Superannuation Payment Reporting - Column for Paid on time and Paid late
Subject: Enhancement Request: Superannuation Payment Reporting
Dear Xero Team,
I am writing to suggest an enhancement that would greatly benefit our operations during tax return preparations. Currently, distinguishing between superannuation contributions paid on time and those paid late is a time-consuming and sometimes confusing process, especially for newcomers. I propose the development of a comprehensive report within Xero that automatically categorizes superannuation payments into 'Paid On Time' and 'Paid Late' based on statutory deadlines. This report should allow users to select specific quarters or custom date ranges, include detailed breakdowns with payment and due dates, and offer export options in various formats (PDF, Excel, etc.).
Implementing this feature will save significant time and reduce errors, enhancing both efficiency and accuracy in managing superannuation payments. The visual indicators and automated categorization will simplify the process, making it user-friendly for both experienced accountants and newcomers. This enhancement aligns with Xero's commitment to providing powerful, user-friendly accounting solutions and will ensure compliance with tax regulations while improving the overall user experience.
Thank you for considering this suggestion.

It sounds like you would like a report that allows you to group contributions between what was paid on time and what was paid late.
Whilst the existing reports don't have the ability to group in this way, there is a lot of useful payment information in the Superannuation Payment report.
This report shows the due date of the contribution, plus the date the contribution was sent to the super fund (if you look at the payment code, the first 6 numbers are the date the batch was approved).
This report can be downloaded in PDF, Excel or Google Sheets if you would like to work with the data further in these formats🙂

Hi Team,
I hope you are doing well.
It would be wonderful to see the addition of a report or feature that clearly separates superannuation contributions into two categories: paid on time and paid late. This enhancement would significantly streamline our review process, saving time and reducing the need to manually reconcile data from the existing Super Payable and Super Paid reports.
Having a clear overview of super compliance status within a single report would also assist in ensuring accurate deduction claims and meeting ATO obligations without additional checks.
Thank you for considering this suggestion.
