Xero Me - Timesheets default start and finish times
Ability for the employee in Xero Me. to be able to create a timesheet template so that they don't have to complete the start, finish and break times for every day every pay period.
44 votesHi community 🙋
Thanks for starting this idea! Did you see last week that our Product Team released an update that helps speed things up on Xero Me Mobile? They’ve enabled the ability to copy previous time entries in start-end timesheets on a per day basis. To do this, enter your time entries as usual for the first day in your timesheet, and then select the “copy from [date]” option when adding a new time entry for a consecutive day.
The team are interested in further exploring improvements in this area, but at this stage there are no firm plans to progress this idea. They’ve got their eyes on the ground though - closely monitoring your ideas, votes and comments. -
UK Payroll | Timesheets - Enter start and finish times on behalf of employee
To be able to enter and start and finish times on the time sheets on Xero me and login for staff, save miscaluculation on hours.
74 votesHey team, we’re grateful for all of the engagement this idea has received. We understand that adding start and end times to timesheets would greatly improve payroll accuracy and record-keeping.
As noted by many of you, this feature is available in the AU version of Payroll, but there is no direct workaround for this in UK Payroll.
I'm pleased to let you know we're moving this idea to In discovery, which means our product team is reviewing the viability of this feature. This is an important step as we explore what it would take to bring this functionality to UK Payroll.
We'll keep you updated on any developments.

AU Payroll - Reports - Sort by First OR Surname
I would like the payroll reports to be able to be sorted by first name or last name. I sue them for a number of reporting requirements with third parties and it would make it so much easier if I was able to do this.
56 votesHey everyone! It's been insightful reading through your comments on filtering payroll reports by both first and last name.
Our product team have reviewed this idea and agree it's an idea they would like to develop, but it isn't currently on the roadmap.
In the meantime, as mentioned by some of you you'll need to export the data to work with outside of Xero. We understand this may be an extra step and appreciate this feature could improve efficiency for a variety of situations.
We'll keep you updated as things progress. Your continued input helps us understand the priority and impact of features like this one.

AU Payroll - Schedule superannuation payments
Add in ability to forward date when a superannuation payment is processed. I would like to submit the authority when I review the monthly super but have the payment not made until it is actually due, which would be a date in the future that I enter.
13 votesWe appreciate you raised this a little while ago, thank you for your patience whilst we review. Whilst this isn't currently on our product team's road map, they've reviewed your comments and can see the value scheduling superannuation payments would bring. With this in mind, we've moved the status of this idea to Accepted and will keep you updated as we go.

UK Payroll - Link payroll journal to pay run
I think it would be a good idea to facilitate the location of payroll reports. Please could you create a link to payroll journals within the payroll "journal reports".
Secondly, it would very useful to be able to amend a payroll journal report, if needed.6 votes -
UK Payroll - Mark P32 as paid
UK Payroll - it would be handy to be able to mark P32 amounts due as paid or dealt with. Just helps to visual see where you are in the list of reports and keep on top of due payments.

Expenses - Bulk edit expense claims
Multi row edit UI on expenses.
I recent moved from Expensify, I've lost about 4 hours of productivity each week having to manually open and update 100s of expenses each week.
I’d like to be able to update categories and VAT status on many tickets at once, a simple list view UI with checkboxes on the left and the ability to update more then one row at a time would work well.

UK Payroll - Allow leavers to access payslips after 14 days
Leavers can only access payslips 14 days after leave date. 14 days is not enough time as the final pay ay not have been processed at this time. So final payslips then becomes a manual process. If P45's could also be accessed that would be great.
23 votesThanks for sharing your idea, we understand sometimes employees need access to payslips beyond 14 days after their leaving date.
We've reviewed your idea and now it's up to the community to get behind and support it. Make sure you share your idea with any colleagues that this could benefit so they can add their vote too!
Along with votes, other members can now comment to share additional detail about how your idea could improve their experience with Xero.

UK Payroll - Better connection between Xero and NEST
Xero and NEST do not always link.
For example a client of mine has a pay date 15th September (pay period 15/08/23-14/08/23). This gets sent to NEST from Xero using a pay reference period 15/09/23-14/10/23. This results in the submission showing in the period following the current period on NEST.
I have spoken to NEST and they advised that Xero is incorrect and need to change the pay reference period to match the pay period so the file is submitted to the correct period within NEST.
Please can this issue be rectified to avoid manual submissions having to be made.

AU Payroll - Include the leave description in Leave Request Report
This would be particularly helpful for employees who take excessive leave, instead of having to go in to the employee's Leave tab to view, or print screening to provide a report for reviewing.
14 votesHi there, we appreciate you raised this a little while ago. This isn't something we have plans for in the near term.
Not getting a lot of support from other members we’ll soon remove this from Product ideas. If it’s still highly valuable to you, welcome to start it again and see if it gets renewed interest.

AU Payroll - Create a shared Calendar
Integration of all employee leave taken with a shared calendar in outlook or calendar in Xero itself that everyone can view to see who is on leave and when.
73 votesThanks for your patience, it’s been a little while since you raised this idea, so we wanted to check in. We can see this idea has been steadily gaining support. Our product team are keeping an eye on this idea and we will continue to share updates as things evolve.

AU Payroll - Add new super funds from employee profile
When adding a new employee record, allow me to 'create new superannuation' during the process of creating their new record. Currently when adding a new employee record, I need to navigate away from the employee record to 'Settings > Payroll Settings > Superannuation' to add a new superannuation relationship. On the new employee record, when the pop up appears for superannuation, if you could add a spot to say 'Create New relationship' or something under the employee record - I'll buy you a beer.
39 votesThanks for your patience whilst this idea is gaining traction.
We've reviewed your comments and can see the that this idea has been gaining support.

Xero Me - Change Expense claimant on Xero Me app
Change Expense Claimant in Expense Claims.
I have a delegate who adds most all of my expenses using XeroMe.They are not an employee rather a bookeeper at the accountant. At present using XeroMe all expeneses are created in their name and in Xero, it states them as an Employee and after saving or submitting you cannot change whom it is for.
In Xero on a laptop, you can change who a claim is for, why is this greyed out in XeroMe?
It should be the same.Also, it would be good to enhance Xero, where you can change the…

AU Payroll - Option to enter withholding tax variation as an additional percentage
The witholding variation should be on top of the existing PAYG calculation not overrides it, as it currently does. If an employee completes a MyGov employee Tax Form and notes they want an additional % amount variation withheld - it should be on top of their existing PAYG tax, not instead of it. There is no other option to put in a percentage amount in XERO.
Or allow the upward variation amount to be a percentage amount - not just a fixed amount.
The screenshot attached shows this employee should be paying tax on the full amount (no threshold claimed)…
63 votesHi everyone, thanks for your feedback on this. We appreciate you sharing how important it is to be able to add an additional percentage on top of PAYG.
As you’re aware, you can increase the amount of tax withheld each pay, however the figure must be a fixed amount.
We understand some of you have been using workarounds like manual calculations or withholding variations, which create challenges if employees earnings are not fixed.
While this feature isn't currently on our roadmap, we've updated this idea to Accepted, so that it’s up for formal consideration.
We're grateful for your continued input as it helps us understand what matters.

AU Payroll - Choose when Employees have access to payslips in XeroMe
From the moment you post a payrun, and this can be 1 day or 10 days before payment is made, employees have access to their payslips. To pull an ABA from the payrun, you need to post the payrun first. I process payroll for over 30 business's. Part of that process, as I am sure it is for any agent or employee bookkeeper, you generally need to get an approval (even the filing for STP makes you verify that an authorised person has checked it). This approval is an email to the client with the payroll information (including ABA file)…

AU Payroll: Control default 'Timesheet type' for employees
Set the default time method for timesheets.
Allow the payroll admin to set the default method for all employees to capture the timesheet details. EG set all employees to use only the time in and time out method not the hours method.

UK Payroll - Ability to process prior year employment allowance claims through Xero payroll
At the moment this isn't an available feature, and HMRCs basic PAYE tools need to be used. It would be good to see this as an option in Xero.
128 votesHi everyone, thanks for all of your engagement with this idea. We appreciate you taking the time to share your thoughts on being able to claim previous year's employment allowances in Xero.
We understand this would save time and provide a more complete payroll solution.
As noted by others in this thread, the current workaround is to process prior year claims using HMRC's Basic PAYE Tools.
We've reviewed our upcoming development roadmap, and at this time building the functionality to process prior year Employment Allowance claims is not in our immediate pipeline.
We will keep this idea under consideration for future development, and should our plans change, we will provide an update here.

Link explain claim/user ID to a contact
Since we ultimately want to see how much each employee is spending and since employees must be set up as a contact - We should be able to link the employees User Id to their contact. This way all the expenses submitted will show up as spend money transactions under the contact for each employee.
Obviously right now the employee could choose themselves as the contact when they submit the expense report but more often than not, they will not.
Having the contact linked to the user id will be particularly helpful for reconciling credit cards since the contact info…
