UK Payroll - Lock draft payslips so no tax codes can be automatically changed etc
BrightPay ID have a feature where you can lock the payslips before submission (once you have processed them) and can "reopen" them on an individual or group bases to make any changes before making any submissions to HMRC.. It is a great feature and something Xero should seriously consider so no errors of automatic tax code changes can be pulled through whilst waiting for autorisation etc.

Hi Sarah, thank you for sharing this feedback with us!
Currently, HMRC tax code updates do not automatically flow into Xero if a pay run is already in draft status when HMRC issues the update. Draft pay runs lock in the active details at creation, any updates received while in draft won't automatically apply unless the paylips is reset.
Looking into your account details, we can see that this was raised as a query directly with Xero Support and has since been resolved.
We really appreciate you sharing your thoughts on how automatic updates in draft pay runs could streamline payroll processes. Community feedback like this helps us understand where we can improve efficiency for our users.
