AU Payroll - Allowance to contribute to leave rate in final pay
Have the option to select what all-purpose allowances are included in the final termination pay rate. This will ensure the correct leave loading is calculated on the full pay rate on the final termination payout.
1 voteThanks for sharing your idea. While allowances don't currently contribute to the final pay, you can manually adjust the rate on the payslip.

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.5 votesThanks for sharing your idea, and letting us know the changes that matter most for you.

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 - Update so fixed amount bonus can be added and approved in timesheet
AU Payroll - Update so fixed amount bonus can be added and approved in timesheet
Currently employees can add into their timesheet a bonus or fixed amount pay item, but in Australia it seems Xero won't let the Payroll Approver actually approve a timesheet with a fixed amount item in it. So i have to take note if a certain employee is supposed to get a bonus this week, then delete it from the timesheet and then manually input it in the pay employees section.
There is so much room for error and employees risk missing out on wages they…2 votesThanks for sharing your idea about allowing users enter fixed amounts such as bonus/commission to timesheets.

UK Payroll - Split tax across weeks when processing holiday pay in advance
I have moved a clients payroll from Sage to Xero. They have weekly wages and pay holiday in advance. In Sage it would calculate the week wages plus week holiday to allow for the tax free allowance for both weeks. In Xero the tax is higher in the week and the following week when a payrun of zero is processed then a tax refund would show to compensate. Is Xero able to replicate this process in Sage.
4 votesHey Lorraine! 👋 Thanks so much for taking the time to share this feedback with everyone. After reviewing your suggestion for adjusting the tax calculation for advanced holiday pay in UK Payroll, we've now made it visible so it can gain support from other community members. It’s now ready to gain votes and comments from fellow Xero users who might find this useful.

NZ Payroll - Allow employee date of birth to be optional
Please remove the requirement to have a date of birth for an employee.
We have been asking for this to be removed for years, Xero recently told us it was an IRD requirement. We contacted our account manager at Inland Revenue and they said it is not an IRD requirement and that they have been in contact with Xero Payroll to make the field non-compulsory.
The workaround that Xero gives of adding a made up date does not work and causes issues where IRD send letters that the date of birth does not match that client.
It is not a…8 votesThanks Raelene, for submitting your idea!

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: AutoSuper Functionality for non AU bank account formats
Currently AutoSuper is not working if one has a Wise AUD bank account.
This would be highly advantageous for those that run their business entirely through Wise and don't use an Australian local bank.1 voteThanks for sharing your idea!
I wanted to let you know that it is possible to use Wise accounts for auto super payments; however, if the Wise base account is not the AU-specific account, the format will not follow the standard requirement of: BSB 000-000, Account 00000000.

AU Payroll - Change leave type while keeping existing information entered
When you go to enter a leave request manually (not employee entered), if you select the dates first, and then realise 'oh I meant this to be sick leave, not annual leave' and change the leave type, the dates 'reset' to current date, and don't retain the information you've already entered.
This means you can accidentally enter an incorrectly dated leave request, having done all the hard work of calculating the hours and dates, then realised at the last second that the 'type' of leave is wrong - everything resets!
I don't always work top-down, I want my work to…

Global Payroll - Dedicated Xero Payroll product for Gibraltar
To whom it may concern, my post is not an idea but rather a request for you to consider extending your UK based XERO product to jurisdictions where UK accounting practices have been adopted and reporting currency is GBP.
I am an AAT qualified accountant of approximately 30 years. I trained at Ernst & Young in Gibraltar then moved to BDO before settling as the accountant at a local Gibraltar private school where I have been for the past 15+ years. We use SAGE and have done for 15+ years to manage the school accounts. Alongside this role I served…2 votesHi team, thanks for sharing your interest in a payroll product for Gibraltar. Being upfront, we don't have any plans in the near term for developing specific payroll products for other regions, and will move the idea to Not in pipeline to set the expectation here.
You will still be able to vote here so it'd be good to still understand if there is wider interest.
If you need to process payroll there are app partners available through our Xero app store, we encourage you to review their app store listings to see which is the right fit for your business.

UK Payroll - Add filters to all reports, i.e. leave overview and Auto enrollment.
It will be great to have meaningful payroll reports. E.g., the leave overview is a blunt tool, as it shows all employees, including those who have left. The same applies to the Auto Enrolment Summary Report - it is a basic on-screen report with no filters, etc. And, yes, includes historical employees. Where there are filters, these overlook some choices which should be present. E.g., wage type, which payroll runs are they- monthly, quarterly, weekly, etc

A simple payroll report that shows the actual wages for a period for reporting for Workers Compensation as it is a legal requirement for AU businesses.
