Expenses - Permission to submit on behalf without approval
Expenses - I want to be able to give an employee the ability to submit on another's behalf but not to be able to approve them or see everyone else's expenses e.g. Executive PA should only be able to submit her the Executive and not have the option to approve or see another employee's expenses.

AU Payroll - Option for Auto Super approval code sent to email instead of phone
AU Payroll - Email auto super code to email address instead of mobile number for overseas travelers who don't always have access to mobile phone
11 votesHi Tayla. Thanks for sharing your idea for alternative methods to approve auto super batch payments.
We've reviewed your idea and now it's up to the community to get behind and support it.
In the meantime, both the current auto super approver and also the subscriber can change the auto super approver details, so if there is another user who could approve superannuation batches, this maybe a workaround if the current super approver is unable to.

I raised a support ticket last week, as our expenses system has become painfully slow, going in and out of expense claims, after approving etc. I have chased them this week, but they have no update. This must have been after they they have updated something in the system. Has anyone else been experiencing these problems. If so, please can you add your support, so that Xero take this seriously and fix it?

NZ Payroll - Customise descriptions on payslip
It would be beneficial for clients who pay commissions to be able to customise the description on the pay slip (rather than showing just 'Withholding Income') or having to set up various 'Pay Items'.

AU Payroll - Enter Long Service Leve entitlements in "Weeks" not hours
I would like to enter Long Service leave balances visible to employees in "weeks" instead of "hours" as I want to avoid overstating or understating hours for those employees who have had varied hours over the course of their employment.
I do not want to have to do the long service leave calculations (as per the LSL legislation in Victorian) with each pay run to work out their average hours. When setting up the leave as a Pay item I can select it to be weeks but when I set up the employee it still only allows Hours.
Can Xero…

NZ Payroll - Allow employee date of birth to be optional
Please remove the requirement to have a date of birth for an employee.
We have been asking for this to be removed for years, Xero recently told us it was an IRD requirement. We contacted our account manager at Inland Revenue and they said it is not an IRD requirement and that they have been in contact with Xero Payroll to make the field non-compulsory.
The workaround that Xero gives of adding a made up date does not work and causes issues where IRD send letters that the date of birth does not match that client.
It is not a…6 votesThanks Raelene, for submitting your idea!

User roles - Hide the Customers list for Expenses "submitter" users
I appreciate that the "Assign to customer" option is useful, but I do not want all of our field staff who use Expenses seeing our customer list. Surely this option can be removed for "Expenses Submitter" roles (but kept on for "Approvers" and "Admin")?

Mobile App - Ability to manually edit or reset 'Common Expenses' list
Manually change Common Expenses! Infuriating that you can't changed these. I've been stuck with the top 4 I used in the first 3 months of the app but they are now so different.

Expenses - Mileage tracking to alert when 10,000KM's are reached
For mileage expenses a way to have a total amount of miles used so that I can track once I reach 10,000 miles and adjust the rate from 45p to 25p. Or have this set to automatically.
3 votesThanks for the idea ✨ and for explaining the need to be alerted at a mileage threshold so the rate can be updated. We’ve reviewed this and, at this stage, we’re not planning to progress it. The approach needed here would rely on a GPS component for automated tracking, and this isn’t something we’re exploring right now. In the meantime, you can continue recording mileage manually and adjust the rate when you reach your threshold. We’ll keep monitoring interest in this space, and if our direction changes, we’ll update here. Thanks again for sharing your use case and helping us understand your needs 🙏

AU Payroll - Change leave type while keeping existing information entered
When you go to enter a leave request manually (not employee entered), if you select the dates first, and then realise 'oh I meant this to be sick leave, not annual leave' and change the leave type, the dates 'reset' to current date, and don't retain the information you've already entered.
This means you can accidentally enter an incorrectly dated leave request, having done all the hard work of calculating the hours and dates, then realised at the last second that the 'type' of leave is wrong - everything resets!
I don't always work top-down, I want my work to…

Tracking - Assign Tracking categories for expense users
It would be useful to be able to assign default tracking categories to users for expense submission so these don't need to be manually added to each individual claim.
5 votesHello everyone, we understand that being able to automatically assign tracking categories to users for their expense claims would be a huge benefit, saving you time and ensuring accurate reporting. 📈
We've heard your suggestions we're continuing to monitor the interest in this idea, but it's not on our current development roadmap. We'll be sure to update you here if anything changes in the future. 👋

AU Payroll - Option to deep archive employee records
Could a similar function that UK organsiations have to "deep archive" employees be rolled out to AU organsiations? This will assist to adhere to legal requirements of retaining employee records for 7 years.
2 votesAppreciate re-raising this idea here to see if there is renewed interest in being able to deep archive employee records.
We'll keep an eye on the support this receives here but want to be open that this isn't something we have plans for in the near term.
In the meantime, you may like to share this idea with any other colleagues that'd find this beneficial so they can support in this too.

UK Payroll - Ability to input HMRC payments in the taxes and filings screen
Within the taxes and filings screen that details tax months and the breakdown of liabilities, input cells beneath each value for PAYE, NIC, recoveries, etc, with the purpose of entering in amounts paid and reconciling the individual months. Most useful when overpayments/underpayments occur, or a business is on payment plan. The total for each month and overall total could then recalculate after each entry and the total balance owing should then reconcile back to the balance sheet. Essentially something similar to the VAT reconciliation function

Expenses - Employee Directory Attendee Picker for Expenses
I’d like to submit a feature request for an enhancement to Xero Expenses, specifically around team meal and group expense submissions.
Current Challenge
When employees submit expenses such as team meals, client lunches, or group events, there is currently no built-in way to select the attendees from within the organisation.At the moment, users can only enter attendee details manually (e.g., typing names into the description), which leads to:
-inconsistent formatting
-missing attendee information
-difficulty auditing expenses
-additional work for finance teams during review and P11D/PSA reportingRequested Feature

trying to add expense, approve and pay it all on the same screen

Expense claims - Choose which fields are optional
Adding a feature in Xero that allows finance admins to designate specific fields on expense claims as mandatory or optional would ensure consistent data entry, improve financial tracking, and streamline the approval process.
Key Benefits:
Enhanced Compliance: By making certain fields mandatory, such as business function or event tracking, admins can ensure that all necessary information is provided, reducing the risk of incomplete or incorrect submissions.
Improved Data Accuracy: Mandating specific fields ensures that critical data, like cost centers or project codes, are always captured, leading to more precise financial tracking and reporting.
Flexibility: Different organizations or departments may have…
