Post payroll to different GL codes
Can we please have the ability for employee salary to be posted automatically to their appropriate GL codes? We currently have to do a manual journal every payroll to assign employee salaries (a mix of direct costs and overhead) to the correct GL code, since currently Xero Payroll in NZ can only post a salary to the organisation wide setting (ie one GL code you select). In this day of automation it seems crazy that we have to do a seemingly simple thing manually.

Hi Nikki, thanks for sharing this! Just to clarify, this functionality is actually already supported in Xero Payroll. You can assign individual pay items to specific GL codes to manage wage expenses, deductions, and other liabilities.
If you want another layer of separation, you can use Tracking Categories to track costs by location, department, or work type.
If we’ve misunderstood your suggestion or if you were looking for a specific enhancement to how this works, please reply with a few more details so we can better understand what you'd like to see!
