Including additional earnings rates in the annual salary display. At the moment it only includes ordinary hours and has confused some of our emplyees.

AU Payroll - Bulk delete/mark inactive pay items.
Bulk delete/mark inactive pay items. We use deputy Awards integration and every time an award is updated we have to delete/inactivate so many pay items.

AU Payroll - Merge duplicate employees
Employee - Merge Function
I cannot believe that there is no merge function for duplicated employees. Most payroll systems have this function. The error occurred between integration with time and attendance software and Xero.

AU Payroll - Allow directors fees to be picked as an ordinary earnings rate
ATO Category pay items of Directors Fees should be able to be the Ordinary Earnings Rate for employees. Currently only the ATO category Ordinary Time Earnings can be the Ordinary Earnings rate for employees.
Whilst adding a zero Ordinary Earnings Rate solves the problem, it leaves the processing of pays open to input errors unnecessarily10 votesHi there, we appreciate you raised this a little while ago. This isn't something we have plans for in the near term.

Payroll - Feature for Cayman Islands
I'm an experienced chartered accountant relatively new Xero user. I'm flummoxed by the inclusion of payroll transactions in the "bills to pay" section. While the detail is hidden from some users, some personal payroll transactions (related to overpayment) have become viewable by users without payroll access. Even summary transactions should not be viewable by people without payroll access.
All payroll transactions should be in a separate section to avoid confusion and any breach of privacy.
I cannot, for the life of me, see the rationale for including payroll transactions in this area in the first place.
1 voteHi Steve, appreciate it hasn't been too long since I last updated you here. I wanted to round back with an update as we;re making changes to Global Pay Run. Meaning this product will be retired from April 2026.
With no plans for developing Xero payroll specifically for other regions at this time we'll shift your idea to Not planned, however I'd recommend exploring our Xero app store where we have multiple payroll app partners that integrate with Xero and could meet the needs of your business.

AU Payroll - Include all gross earnings in salary sacrifice
Suggestion? Please fix the Salary Sacrifice % of Earnings to include all gross earnings, not just payroll items selected for SGC.
Currently Xero will only apply a Salary Sacrifice % amount to any payroll item that is selected for SGC. If an employee chooses to Salary Sacrifice a % of their gross earrings that may include overtime worked, a manual calculation work around is required.

AU Payroll - Bulk file pay runs with STP
When doing a catch up job it takes forever to have to click into each pay run then back into pay employees and repeat. It would be great to be able to tick each one on the payroll > pay employees screen and then submit all at once.

AU Payroll - Reset leave accrual on anniversary date
Set up leave so that it automatically tops up at the start of the year with a set amount.
I have an employee that has an arrangement of xhours per years to be used as they wish. At the start of each year this reverts back to the agreed hours. Any hours not taken during the previous year is cleared.9 votesHi there, we appreciate you raised this a little while ago. This isn't something we have plans for in the near term.

Global Pay Run - Ability to include company logo on payslip
Please allow the option to put the company's logo on the payslip.
11 votesHi all, returning to the idea here I wanted to provide an update in light of recent communications you may have received - We’re making some changes to Global Pay Run to help you manage your payroll more effectively;
- From 23 July 2025 Global Pay Run will become read-only. You'll still be able to see all your past payroll information, however you will not be able to process any new pay runs after this date.
- Global Pay run will be retired after April 2026, at which point you'll no longer be able to access pay run.
This also means that we will not be making any more updates to our Global Pay Run product, and I'll move this idea to Not planned.
Between now and 23 July, as mentioned in my last post the best option here would be to use a pre printed letterhead to print…

AU Payroll - Submit Leave Request via SMS
Provide the functionality to receive leave requests by SMS notification.
1 voteThanks for sharing your idea with the community here, Rachel. I see it hasn't really picked up interest and with the ability for employees ti submit leave requests via the Xero Me app that is accessible from a mobile device we don't have any plans for developing SMS capability.

AU Payroll | Employees - Add Visitor Status as a field
In Australia we are required to check an employee's visa status and keep a record of such.
Additionally we have to report on this every quarter.
It would be great to add visit status to the employment record

AU Payroll - Permit special characters in superannuation member number
Many super fund member numbers have special characters, eg, dash '-' or underscore '_'.
At the moment, only numbers can be entered as the Member Number, which means any member numbers with special characters are deemed 'invalid' by Xero. This means we are unable to process super payments for the staff member.6 votesHi there, we appreciate you raised this a little while ago. This isn't something we have plans for in the near term.

AU Payroll - Edit text on payslips
It would be great to be able to edit text on a payslip. For example, one of my clients would like to hide the percentage of leave loading on their employees' payslip. Currently the payslip would read "Annual Leave - Leave Loading (17.5%, exempt from SGC)" for each time leave is taken, and they would like to hide the "(17.5%, exempt from SGC)" part.

AU Payroll | Timesheets - Ability to enter negative hours
Re Payroll/Timesheets/RDO's. Can you please allow employees to enter a negative No of hours in Xero Me to category RDO accrual to get their hours back to the usual eg. 76 in a fortnight. Currently cannot submit.
Staff working 40 hours to obtain hours RDO is problematic. I don't agree with Xero's instruction to change opening balance accrual figures. Must be able to be audited.Please change the break hours to be able to be 1. entered online and not just via Xero Me 2. within 1 entry. Currently staff have to enter 2 lines each day.

AU Payroll - Accruable earnings pay item
Accrued Earnings Payroll item in Payroll
We need to record a Project Incentive Payment as an accrual on payslips. These accruals vary per project with some accrued hourly, daily or weekly and are paid at the end of the project.
The Accrued Earnings payment would be setup in Payroll Settings, with a running total displayed on payslips.
