AU Payroll - Naming Convention Payroll ABA
As I am an external accountant to several client, each with several pay-calendars across numerous entities, I would much appreciate if the ABA files (much like pdf reports) could be given a naming convention that ties the ABA clearly to entity, and pay-calendar when I screen through my downloads.

AU Payroll - Reports downloaded from posted pay runs to include pay period rather than payment date
Every time I process a payroll (hundreds every year), I produce the Payroll reports to send to the client.
The Payroll Activity Details Report AND THE Payroll Employee Summary shows the INCORRECT details in the heading. For example The report reads: "For the period 17 November 2025 to 17 November 2025". THIS IS NOT CORRECT, and it wastes HOURS having to change it every single time.
The Report is for the Processed Pay Period just completed!!!
Can we have this corrected to the pay period when this report is directly created from a payroll run??? the date for Example SHOULD…4 votesThanks for sharing your idea about including the pay period in payroll reports downloaded from posted pay runs. Agree, it makes sense for the pay period to be shown rather than the payment date ("For the period 17 November 2025 to 17 November 2025").

AU Payroll - Notification when leave requests are created for the same date
Encountered an issue where employees annual leave has been entered twice and it doesn’t flag in the system. Unsure if a Xero glitch or a human glitch, but regardless, it shouldn’t be able to process 2 Annual Leave runs for the same dates/ Pay periods.

AU Payroll - Simplify and automate worksafe remuneration reporting

employees hours showing on Payrun
When creating a Payrun can we see total Employee hours populated in the Payrun? We use an external Time sheet, having this ability would enable us to have a quick reference without having to open up Employees details page and adding up their different hours logged.

Link from timesheets back to draft pay run
There is a link from an employee's draft pay run to their timesheet, but not back to their draft pay run. It would be helpful if there was a shortcut to go back from the timesheet to the pay run.

Payroll - Suggestion for a visual staff leave planner to manage overlaps and cover
A Planner with a visual representation of staff approved leave (with an option to note who is covering that leave) would be super helpful. We're trying to do this with with spreadsheets and it's diabolical - but the info is all there in Xero - seeing it in a planner would be AMAZING!
It would also assist with seeing overlaps to better manage additional requests for leave before approving them.4 votesThanks for sharing your idea, and letting us know the changes that matter most for you.

Pay items
Roll back to the previous version where pay items did not have to be included in employee pay templates!
Our employee have over 100 pay items and to have to include them all in each employee pay template is ludicrous!
This change will affect many Xero users in a negative way!

AU Payroll - Change Employee bank account from within pay run
I have a client that often has employees opt to pay into varying bank accounts from pay to pay. There is no option to change the default bank account, you either need to manually change it or add the amount to the bank account that the employee wants to be paid into, it is very manual and cumbersome and is prone to human error. An option to change default bank account would assist with this and also eliminate all those annoying change of bank account emails that Xero send through.

AU Payroll - Match decimal places for Leave and timesheet hours when using start and finish times
Entering leave and timesheets need to tie in together. Currently if an employee enters start and finish times on their timesheet it creates four decimal places and when they enter leave for the same day it does not link to the timesheet and the employee enters their leave with two decimal places resulting in the days pay not being the full hours for the day. The reports for timesheets need to default to four decimal places if that is how it is going to be calculated.

Payroll AU > enter balance reducing deductions
It would be good to see deductions being set up for a fixed amount to deduct each pay until a total amount is reached with the option of paying the deduction to a third party bank account. Having to complete this manually and keep track is archaic!

Payroll AU: Unscheduled pay run "payment date" automatically be todays date
When doing an Unscheduled pay run, to have the "payment date" automatically change to todays date, or have a pop up saying to check date.
1 voteThanks for sharing your idea about the payment date of unscheduled pay runs. If you're making a correction to a old pay run, in most situations you'll want the payment date to match that of the pay run you're making corrections for. However understand this is not always the case.

Central Location for Payroll Information Across my Client Base
I need a way to look across my client base (without needing to go into each individual Xero file) to ensure payruns have been posted and superannuation payments are up to date please. This has become even more important for my business given the Payway Super changes coming from 1 July 2026. Thanks
