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?

Hey 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.

Dear Xero Product Team,
I would like to suggest a feature enhancement within Xero that could greatly assist users in maintaining compliance with superannuation obligations.
It would be extremely helpful if Xero could include an automated reminder feature for upcoming pay days specifically linked to super compliance deadlines. Such a feature could notify users in advance to ensure super payments are processed and reported on time.
This functionality would improve workflow efficiency, reduce the risk of missed deadlines, and support businesses in staying compliant with superannuation requirements.Kind regards,
Mayank Chavda -

I don't want another direct debit on my account.
Is this new super feature a direct debit or do I pay it via Bpay? -

interesting. 1 month, 8 votes and this idea is 'in development'.
Yet a related idea over 3 years old with 344 votes and over 100 comments, many screaming "this must be done before 1Jul26" is at status 'accepted' and " high on our agenda, likely to be picked up later this year."I can imagine the frustration after receiving this reminder, and then finding this sole payment approver is on leave, so the payment can't go through anyway.

Agree with both of these.
Reminders required & definitely ability to pay using Bpay as ATO clearing houses closing down. 50% of employers pay super uding Bpay on a survey i did outside of Xero.
