Employee Files - Be able to add documents to a leave transaction (i.e. Medical Certificates for sick leave)
Employee Files - Be able to add documents to a leave transaction (i.e Medical Certificates or Leave Request Forms)
This would be great to have in each employee leave request as well as a dedicated documents file for each employee for keeping track of records for things like; Resignation Letters, Medical certificates, Leave Requests for anything related to specific employees for a 'all in one place' archive of employee data.

AU Payroll - Calculate the length of service
Under the field "start date" have Xero automatically calculate their total length of service to the current date, and under the field "end date" once an employee is terminated, calculate their total overall service.
This would save the user from needing to manually calculating the service for notice periods, redundancy payments and long service leave in some states.4 votesThanks for sharing your thoughts on automatic length of service calculations in AU Payroll.

Xero Me - Timesheets - Employees to view timesheets submitted on their behalf.
It would be good to have the ability to add timesheets to the payslips sent to the staff.
Our staff don't work set rostered hours and the times are entered by the Supervisors due to the nature of the work. When the employees want to check their pay, they haven't got anything to reference. Having the approved timesheets sent with the payslip would allow them to query their pay more accurately.
2 votesThank you for sharing your idea, and letting us know about the changes that matter most for you and your team.
We understand the need for employees to easily reference their timesheet details when reviewing their pay.
We wanted to point out that if you provide your employees with Xero Me access, they can submit and view their own approved timesheets directly within the app. This provides them with the reference needed when they receive their payslip.

Recurring technical issue regarding the employee invitation process.
Currently, when employees do not accept their Xero invitation immediately, they frequently encounter errors stating they are no longer part of the organization or lack access. Even after resetting their passwords, the issue persists. This requires our administrators to manually delete the user and resend the invitation, which often fails again if not accepted instantly.
As I manage 10 Xero organizations and over 500 employees, this manual workaround is highly inefficient. I would like to propose the following improvements:
- Automated Invitations: Implement a system where invitations are managed automatically to ensure consistent access.
- Self-Service Support: Provide employees with direct access…

Way to save employee contracts under thier profiles on Xero payroll
It would be really useful if under the employees on payroll module there was a way to upload the employee contracts of employment under their profile. This way we can easily refer to the employee related contract items through Xero payroll.

Xero Me - streamlined User Re-invitation & Access Request Process
Feature Request: Streamlined User Re-invitation & Access Request Process for Organisations. To the Xero Product Team,
Firstly, thank you for continuously developing a fantastic platform. We rely on Xero daily for our core business operations.
We are writing to highlight a significant administrative challenge we face and to propose a feature that would drastically improve efficiency for organisations with a large number of employees, such as ours with 200 staff.

AU Payroll - Suggestion for improvement: Include 'Description' field in Leave Request report
We use the description field to identify when staff use different types of leave that reduce the PL balance, but require tracking - Moving Days, Wellbeing Days, Special Leave etc. Being able to include these descriptions in the Leave Request report enables us to keep track more efficiently.

AU Payroll - Automatically blank out leave approved days and public holidays on timesheets
It would be great if Xero Me would automatically blank out the approved leave, and public holiday hours, within an employee's timesheet (manually overwritable of course) so that they cannot (or are warned not to) double up their hours. e.g. they have annual leave approved, to have a Friday off, but they can also enter paid hours on their timesheet for that same Friday, thus enabling double pay for that day.

Xero Me - Allow timesheet templates use in Xero me App
Hi,
Our employees work standard hours each day, but in addition to this there are often additional items on their timesheets, such as overtime, trip and overnight stay bonuses.
The use of timesheet templates simplifies this process by automating the inputting of their standard hours, though due to the remote nature of their work timesheets are being submitted through the mobile application which does not allow the uploading of templates.
Can the ability to upload templates be added to the mobile app or a default template be added when creating a new timesheet?

AU Payroll - Paid break times
Ability to enter a PAID Break - This would be particularly helpful in Contruction industry, where most awards provide employees with a paid tea break on OT & Weekend work. This would mean employers will meet their obligations for Start/Finish Times as well as break times.

AU Payroll - Restrict which earnings rate an employee can select in timesheets
Ability to restrict which pay items an employee can view in Xero Me to only those that apply to that employee. Without this ability employees sometimes choose pay items that do not apply to them. Most often this is picked up at the authorisation stage but why allow the possibility for error in the first place.
96 votesThanks everyone. We appreciate the thinking behind wanting to restrict which earnings rates employees can choose when they fill out a timesheet.
Since this idea was first raised we’ve made a small update - You can now assign earnings rates to employees and these'll appear first in the Xero Me app when an employee enters a timesheet. Just a heads-up that any other earnings rates will still show underneath and can still be selected.
As we continue to develop Xero Payroll in Australia this is something our product team have been keeping a close eye on. We’re planning work that’d let employees select only the earnings types in their Pay Template or the default rate from their employee record.
When this work moves forward I’ll come back here and share an update with you all. 🙂

Xero Me: Allow employees to update bank details
It would be great if an employee could update their bank details and pay disbursements on their xero me app.
53 votesHi everyone, thanks for supporting and sharing how enabling employees to update their own bank details in Xero Me would be beneficial to you.
We’ve recently released updates to Xero Me so that employees can view and update certain personal details directly from their app. This is part of our ongoing work to give employees more control over their information and reduce manual work for payroll admins.
However, the ability for employees to update their own payment details in Xero Me is not something we’re currently planning. When it comes to bank account and payment details, there are additional considerations we need to take into account. In many regions, employment legislation as well as fraud-prevention obligations mean we must be especially careful about how payment details are collected, changed and who can authorise those changes.
We really appreciate you taking the time to share how you’re using Xero Me today…

AU Payroll - Calculate future leave balances for employees
For permanent employees, all XERO business customers should be able to calculate their future leave balances. This will allow a business owner to know if they can approve the leave or not, or what conversation to have with a team member.
I hope this idea is backed and implemented.
205 votesHey team, 👋 "Can I take this holiday?" - Now, we know this is one of the most common questions employees ask, and it's one we'd like to be able to help you solve with Xero Payroll.
We'd love your help in shaping the future of Leave projections in Xero - As a start, please share any detail about;
- What information you normally need for calculating future leave balances currently?
- What would you need to see or understand to trust that the projected balance is accurate?
We're also looking to set up a research session to dive deeper into your current process and explore options wth us - If you'd be willing to give some time, take a few minutes to fill in our survey📝 and we'll be in touch in the coming days. Thanks!

Notification - Reminder to employee to enter Timesheets
An option within the employee page, once selected, to send app notification reminders that timesheets are due by specific date/time.
152 votesThanks for your support and joining in this idea. We get the challenges involved in manually chasing up employees to complete timesheets each pay period.
Although it's not the integrated solution you’re looking for, you could look to set up recurring calendar events or using external communication tools to prompt your team members.
We want to be transparent that we don't have any plans for adjusting the existing notifications for timesheets.
We'll continue to monitor this idea, and should our priorities shift in the future we'll let everyone know here.
