Payroll AU - Payroll Advisors to receive Superannuation email notifications
Please include all Payroll Advisors in Superannuation bounceback email notifications.
Currently, only the Super approver receives an email notification when any super payment has bounced. Often, the Super approver does not pass this on in a timely manner, and it's not practicable to be constantly refreshing the Super Payments screen to check for any bounces, particularly for Accountants who manage multiple organisations in Xero.
With Payday Super coming in to effect on 1 July 2026, the window for ensuring super is paid is very tight. If only the Super approver is notified, they may not have the ability act accordingly…
45 votesHi team, we appreciate the interest here especially with upcoming Payday Super. I'd like to share that notifications and prompts are being developed with some of the changes we're working on, and achieve what's being asked here.
I'll round back when this is live and confirm what these look like to help in your processing of Superannuation here.

AU Payroll - Payday super reminders
With the pending Payday super requirements, can there be a reminder or a "can't progress" feature to prompt the person processing the payroll to also pay the Payday super?
Can the business choose to pay superannuation using BPay details instead of linking to a bank account?
9 votesAppreciate you raising the idea with us here, Jennifer and the quick support it's starting to receive.
We'd like to confirm that this is something our product team are working on as part of their development for Payday super in Xero. We will provide prompts to both;
- help payroll admins set up pay items to correctly calculate super, and
- highlight to payroll admins to pay superannuation when it's outstanding
However, BPay will not be a supported method of payment. We'll come back to share when the prompts we've noted above are released. Thanks

AU Payroll - Superannuation end of quarter reminder
Would be great if Xero could trigger an automated (email and/or text) reminder to the superannuation payment approver 10, 5 and one days out from the superannuation due date each quarter.
A similar reminder feature already exists in XPM for Activity Statement Lodgements - reminders can be turned on.
Xero also has the ability to automate reminders to Customers around bill payment.
Xero has the email and SMS of the superannaution approver already on file.
Advantage of these reminders:
Super gets paid on time - we're all human and life can take over and sometimes things get missed - a…
184 votesHey everyone! Thanks so much for your feedback and for sharing your thoughts on this. It’s clear from the support this idea has gained that automated reminders for superannuation payments could be a huge help for many of you. We hear you and can see how this could make managing your obligations smoother.
Our product team has taken a look at this and we’re exploring how we can build it in to help you stay on top of the proposed PayDay Super changes. It’s on our roadmap, and we’ll keep you posted as things move forward. 🙂

AU Payroll - Change Super Payment Frequency en masse.
If I want to change the Payment Frequency for Superannuation from quarterly to monthly, I currently have to do it for each and every employee individually, A fair waste of time because there are many employees on the list to change, but I've done it. When it becomes mandatory in 2024 to pay all employees fortnightly, I'm hoping to be able to 'Select All' employees, and select to change the Payment Frequency' from Monthly to Fortnightly. Do you know if this has been discussed or is likely to become an option for us?
17 votesWe can see you raised this a little while ago, so wanted to touch base with an update. The ATO are implementing Payday superannuation amendments in Jul 2026. This will significantly change the way Automatic Superannuation in Xero works. Whilst we don't have any specifics on how this will look in Xero payroll, our product team are working hard to make the necessary changes to keep our customers compliant in a user friendly way. As these changes may have an effect on this idea too, we've moved the current status to In Development for now. We'll be reaching out closer to July to let payroll customers know how PayDay super will work in Xero.

AU Payroll | Timesheet - Ability to add allowances of other unit types
When operating tracking income and expenses in two areas, payroll allows for the primary tracking category when setting up the employee and the time sheet allows the secondary tracking option to be selected.
Currently the timesheet option only allows for the 'hours worked' to be allocated to the secondary tracking option. Any allowance can only be added at the pay run which means it cannot be added to the secondary tracking category.
Can we have the ability to add allowances as an option in the timesheet?
186 votesHi everyone, I wanted to share another update regarding timesheet flexibility.
Our product team is currently working on a feature that will allow employees to add other unit-based earnings types directly to their timesheets via Xero Me. This means your team will soon be able to record allowances and other non-ordinary earnings pay items alongside their regular hours.
We know this has been a highly requested feature to help reduce manual adjustments for admins. We are currently in the development phase and will provide a further update here once we’re closer to a release date.

UK Payroll - Export payment file in CSV format
UK Payroll: Payment file csv format
Lloyds bank doesn't accept .txt format. It would be great if we could download a csv payment file to upload the employee pays to the bank.90 votesHi team, we'd like to share another update as work for allowing direct wage payments via open banking with Crezco is well underway.
We look forward to updating everyone on this idea as soon as this is released.
As previously mentioned - we want to be upfront that we don't have any plans for extending the payment file export format to CSV, however direct payments will eliminate the need for a manual export saving you a few steps in this process. 🙂
