Payment
I plan to use this data to organize and manage my business finances more efficiently. The information will help me track sales, expenses, invoices, payments, and overall business performance. I am building a system that will allow me to better understand cash flow, maintain accurate records, and make informed decisions as the business grows. The data will also help with bookkeeping, reporting, and improving the way I manage daily operations.
1 voteHi Jamie, thanks for raising this, however I am not sure what you are referring toon when you say this Idea will help you organise and manage your business. The attached file is Xero import CSV for bank statement imports. Can you please clarify exactly what your Idea is and we will review this for future consideration.🙂

UK Payroll - Add Project time tracking in draft pay run rather than timesheets
Currently there is no option to allocate payments to projects in payslips. We have on multiple occasions, allocated payments to projects as a manual journal due to payments for payroll not being allocated to projects in timesheets. It is frustrating as you only realise when checking project profit/loss and quite time consuming.
3 votesThanks for letting us know you're keen to see greater integration between Projects and Payroll.

NZ Payroll: Allow employee email addresses to be reused
Please allow email addresses to be re-used. It is a pain having to do into a past employee and delete the email address because you cant re-use it when you set them up again.
2 votesThanks for sharing your idea. As you're aware, a single email address cannot currently exist in more than one employee record, so you'll need to remove it from the terminated record before adding it to the new one.

UK Payroll: Ceased Benefits YTD to remain on payslip
The year to date figure of any previous benefits (that have ceased during the tax year) should remain on the payslips for the whole of the tax year in which they were paid. For employees on a cumulative tax code, their year to date tax figure does not make sense without it. This should also be the case for previous pay elements (rather than grouping altogether into other payments), this is to keep a split of the taxable and non-taxable pay elements. Thank you!
5 votesThanks for sharing your idea on having YTD benefits appear consistently on the payslips. I understand benefits make up taxable earnings and should remain on the payslip.

UK Payroll: Add Download P45 link in the Employee list
Add the P45 link in the Employee row, like P60.
If you have selected one or more employees to download the P45 you then have to scroll back up to the top of the page to find P45 Download button.
I had to use the Help resource to find it, rather than it be obvious.

AU Payroll: allowance/other earning types to make up annual salary on payslip.
We have constant feedback that we are not paying people in full because the field Annual Salary Field doesn't include allowances
Can it be the Grossed up salary package?

Currently only employee’s ordinary earnings rate make up the annual salary visible on payslips.

AU Payroll - Process payroll from Xero accounting app.
Would love to be able to access payroll data and process payroll from ipad app. Instead of having to loggin into safari or google to lodge payroll. I can nearly use every aspect of my daily xero usuage through the app and then need to log in somewhere seperately to do payroll. To be able to do it on the app as well would be amazing
3 votesThanks for sharing your feedback about a dedicated Xero Payroll app! As you're aware the Xero mobile app is a companion to the main Xero web platform. It allows you to monitor finances on the go like creating invoices, and reconciling transactions. Because it is a companion app, it doesn't include all of Xero's web features such as payroll.
We appreciate your feedback, and we agree that having a fully dedicated Xero Payroll app could be incredibly useful for managing your team on the move.

AU Payroll: Automate Pay Runs
For any fixed salary employees, there should be an option to automate their regular (fortnightly/monthly) payruns. There's no reason why I need to manually create these for fixed salary employees.
Any changes to salary or leave balances etc are all managed separately via their respective employee records or leave requests.

Payroll AU: effective start and end dates for pay items on pay template
Can we please have the ability to add effective start and end dates against pay items. For example, a deduction may only be for 10 weeks at a set amount. Rather than having to setup multiple notes offline to remind us of this, can we have this function setup in the payroll system so it only deducts the amount over the set period specified.

Be notified via My Xero or Notification Alarm Bell of bounced or rejected auto super payments
New notification of bounced or rejected auto super payments for all Xero files we have access to, in a central area like "My Xero". This way we could check My Xero once a day to see if any payday super payments failed instead of sifting through emails and possibly missing the alert.
Alternatively, a notification could show under the alarm bell logo notifying us of any auto super payments that didn't go through.2 votesHi 👋 your idea is being looked into by our Community team. We'll be in touch soon to update you once your idea has been reviewed.

Payroll AU: Display the Full Pay Period in a Pay Run
Feature Suggestion: Display the Full Pay Period in Payroll
It would be extremely helpful if Xero could display the full pay period (From DD/MM/YY to DD/MM/YY) within the payroll pay window, rather than only showing the "Week Ending" date.
For example, instead of displaying:
Week Ending 05/07/2026
display:
Pay Period: Wednesday 29/06/2026 to Tuesday 05/07/2026
or
29/06/2026 – 05/07/2026I process payroll for multiple entities with different pay cycles and pay periods. Having the start and end dates clearly visible would make it much easier to confirm that the correct pay run is being processed, reduce the risk of errors,…

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.

UK Payroll - Add tracking to NI, PAYE & pension
I would like to be able to allocate a team tracking category to each employee on our payroll, this way when the payroll journal pulls through, each employees salary, Er NI, pension costs and any benefits will automatically be allocated to their team.
I do quarterly reporting for our client and as it currently is, each quarter I will have to manual journal all the above accounts from an unassigned 'team', back into the same account but allocated to their correct team. I will have to work out the amounts to credit out looking at the detailed report and manually…

AU Payroll - Payroll Admin to create Time Sheet templates on behalf of employees
An Upgrade to the Timesheets function that would allow businesses to create permanent, personalised templates for individual employees.
Currently, timesheets need to be manually updated each pay period, which increases the risk of inconsistency and errors. Having the ability to set up fixed Earnings Rate descriptions as part of a permanent template would make timesheets more efficient, accurate, and tailored to each business.
For example, it would be very useful if a timesheet template could include pre-set lines such as:
Ordinary hours – Direct
Ordinary hours – Operating
Overtime hours (exempt from super)
Overtime hours (including super)
Overtime Mon–Sat –…

AU Payroll - Add additional Payroll employee for a charge
Please allow adding on an extra employee for payroll in Australia, as is possible in the UK.
The Ignite plan is enough for most small businesses and sole traders, but the jump in price just to add an extra employee means paying more than double, which is cost prohibitive.
Most businesses don't need the add on and accounting tools when you move up to Grow or Comprehensive - allowing for an extra payroll add on for a small charge, would be beneficial for family and small businesses.17 votesThanks for sharing your idea and highlighting how important flexible payroll options are for your business.
We understand that needing to upgrade your plan just to add a few more employees can feel limiting—especially for growing businesses. Being able to add employees on a per-user basis could offer a more cost-effective and flexible solution.

AU Payroll - Maximum leave accrual limit or expiry dates for leave types.
It would be good to make it possible to either set a maximum leave accrual, or set an expiry date for leave. An example where it could be used would be study leave. We have an agreement with employees that gives them 7 days of study leave per year. Any unused study leave is forfeited after two years. Currently we have to manually monitor and adjust the leave.

Xero Expenses - Add custom fields for SARS
EXPENCE MODULE - TRAVEL - NOT TAX (SARS) COMPLIANT
Xero Expenses currently captures the following for mileage claims: date, distance, and a description. This is wholly inadequate for South African tax compliance and exposes every South African business using Xero Expenses for travel reimbursement to material tax risk.

Expenses - make Customer field searchable in Xero Me app
The customer field box really needs a search bar. Having to scroll through 500 customers is very tiresome. There should be a search bar for every field to be honest. It does exist on the browser version, but not the app version.
