Expense Claims - Populate contact for reimbursable expense claims
Re-introduce Vendor Auto-fill in New Expenses to Save Time & Prevent Data Duplication. The new Expenses experience is missing the vendor auto-fill/suggestion feature that existed in Classic Expenses. This is a critical time-saving tool that also prevents the creation of duplicate vendor records due to minor spelling variations or typos. Re-adding this feature would greatly improve efficiency and data hygiene.

Payroll AU > Create an account transaction when you process super payment.
When you approve an auto super payment it would be helpful if an account transaction is created in the bank account with the description detailing the underlying payruns the super payment amounts relate to (ie pay dates, employee total). This would then be matched to the withdrawal on from the bankfeed.
When trying to reconcile what super has been paid and when this information would be very helpful in identifying late super from within the GL or account transaction report.

Payroll (UK) - Bank holidays to automatically deduct from annual entitlement
Link the holiday group, working pattern and leave entitlement so it automatically deducts the relevant number of hours taken off for a bank holiday. Our contracts stipulate 28 days including bank holidays pro rated. The holiday group deducts the bank holidays on the pay slips but doesn't reduce the annual entitlement so the leave allowance is always higher than it should be. If you don't use the holiday group so you can circumvent the allowance being incorrect you then have to manually add the bank holidays for each user to ensure the pay and holiday allowance is correct which is…
6 votesThanks for sharing your idea and highlighting what matters most to you. Currently you don't need to process a leave request for public holidays.
If an employee is assigned to a holiday group in their Employment information, Xero will automatically add a Bank Holiday/public holiday earnings line to the payslip and reduce their ordinary hours by this amount.
If you want a contract that’s “28 days inclusive of bank holidays,” you can set this up by either:
- Entering a reduced annual leave entitlement (for example, 20 days if 8 bank holidays are included).
- Not assigning the employee to a holiday group and treating bank holidays as part of their regular annual leave.

AU Payroll | Timesheet - Ability to Drag and drop hours between days
When entering hours and locations into the timesheet, if a day is selected incorrectly (for example, selecting Thursday instead of Friday), it would be very helpful to be able to drag and drop the hours to the correct day rather than having to delete and re-enter the time in the correct day.

Payroll / Chart of Accounts - Set Default GL Expense Account by Employee Group
Could you look into allowing employee groups to allow the set up different employee group with distinct expense accounts for direct cost based employees versus administrative staff (for example). this provides a better way to categorize and track labor costs as either direct costs or expenses (variable versus fixed)

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.

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.

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 - 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").

Stop hiding draft expenses
Currently if you add a receipt through Xero Me this is no longer obviously visible as it used to be on the old home screen. This makes it extremely easy to miss that there is anything pending.
Even if you click on Expenses to review, this does not bring up any draft receipts. It's as though this has been designed to make it really easy to overlook these!

AU Payroll - Notification when leave requests are created for the same date
Encountered an issue where employees annual leave has been entered twice and it doesn’t flag in the system. Unsure if a Xero glitch or a human glitch, but regardless, it shouldn’t be able to process 2 Annual Leave runs for the same dates/ Pay periods.

payroll pay plan for additional user
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.

AU Payroll - Unpaid leave report
Hi, this needs to be reopened as an issue as there is no report that shows Unpaid Leave taken which is required for reporting to LeavePlus, LSL calculations and all the reasons given on the original post for this topic which over 100 users have asked for over the last 3yrs+.
Unpaid Leave should be included in the Leave transaction report (the solution given but not correct and is also stated in the Xero help page), the Payroll Activity report and even payslips so employees have a record.1 voteThanks for submitting your idea on Xero Product Ideas.

AU Payroll - Allow Withholder Payer Numbers (WPN) for Automatic Superannuation
Clients who are not eligible for an ABN but have a PAYG withholding obligation (e.g. people who employ domestic help) have to register the ATO for a Withholder Payer Number (WPN) so they can deduct and remit PAYG. The SBSCH has enabled super stream for holders of WPNs but that is closing 1 July 2026. Xero STP/Auto Super currently requires an ABN for registration - please make use of a WPN possible.
