Add POST/Update Support for Payslips & PayRuns in Xero Payroll UK API
We are currently building an automation workflow to support payroll processing for a UK-based organisation with ~250 employees and have identified a significant limitation in the Xero Payroll UK API.
At present, the API allows retrieval of pay runs and payslips (GET), but does not support creating or updating payslips or pay run data (POST/PUT), unlike the AU/NZ payroll APIs which do have these functions.
This creates a major gap for organisations that:
Generate payroll data externally (e.g. roster systems, care management platforms, or custom workflows)
Require bulk upload of calculated earnings, reimbursements, and adjustments
Need to avoid manual input…4 votesHi Matthew, thanks for sharing this on our Xero product ideas page. I wanted to let you know we have a different forum for APIs.
I've found an existing idea which seems to match what you're asking for. Take a look at this idea and don't forget to add your vote.

AU Payroll - default super fund in payroll settings
Employer's Default Super Fund.
Have a place in the Superannuation settings to store the Employer's nominated default super fund.2 votesHi Kingsley, for your post to be considered as an idea here, we may need some additional information to let our product team and the Xero community know how having a specific setting for a default superfund would improve your experience with automatic superannuation.
Many Xero users are new to automatic superannuation, so this will help others in community know what they're voting for, and ensure we can get your idea to the right people in product for consideration.

Timesheet - Audit trail, 'Save & Next', go back to Payroll screen if clicked on from there
- New Timesheet layout has lost the ability to see when the timesheet was submitted or approved. This audit trail is imperative to my clients using timesheets as employees are not always been truthful about when they actually submitted the timesheet. If they miss the pay run they then blame us for not getting paid in the standard payroll.
We seriously need this functionality to stay. ** In the original timesheet screen you could only see the latest update (IE when it was submitted OR when it was approved). We need to see when they were submitted AND when they were…
2 votesWe appreciate your feedback about timesheets in general. We don't accept ideas that have multiple request in one post. We'd recommend you create separate ideas for each feature or area of Xero you'd like to see this developed for, so we can gauge support and keep users updated.

Payroll AU: plan for additional employees
Can you introduce a plan to pay per additional user? We currently have 7 employee and to move from Grow to comprehensive is Ultimate 10 is an additional $55 per month and we don't need any of the other features. It's currently more cost effective to use external payroll software. It's not justifiable to pay an extra $660 per year for just your payroll function.
2 votesWe appreciate your feedback; this will be shared with our teams. Please note that we do not accept ideas regarding Xero pricing plans or plan structures, and we cannot make commitments to ideas of this nature.

change employment allowance part way through the year
To be able to amend the employment allowance part way through the tax year when changes to the employees happen so the company can claim what they are entitled to
1 voteHi Tracy, to help us understand exactly what you are looking for here, could you clarify a bit more about the specific roadblock you are hitting?
According to HMRC, if a business becomes eligible for the Employment Allowance partway through the tax year they are entitled to the full annual allowance to offset against their employer NI.
Currently, Xero does allow users to go to Payroll Settings > HMRC tab and turn the Employment Allowance toggle on or off mid-year, which then triggers an adjustment on the next EPS filing.

Payroll UK: Multiple Employment Contracts for a Single Employee
It seems bonkers to me that it's not easy to add multiple employment contracts for a single employee - this is how the world actually works, but the only solution from Xero at present, is what can only be called a workround. Please make it possible to add multiple contracts.
1 voteHi Jen, thanks so much for dropping this suggestion in!
To help us get a better handle on exactly what you need, could you give us a little more context? We'd love to know if you're looking for a way to roll an employee over to a new contract, or if you need multiple concurrent contracts for a single employee?
If it's the second one, what specific elements need to stay separate?
From an HMRC reporting perspective, multiple active contracts usually mean keeping separate Payroll IDs.
Get back to us if you'd like to update your idea, you can reply to this update and we'll re-review.
