Xero Projects (US) - Full Integration with Xero Payroll
Xero Projects Full Integration with Xero Payroll
Idea Summary:
Enable Xero Payroll (Coming later this year) to natively use approved time entered in Xero Projects for payroll processing, just as Projects time is already used for client invoicing.
Problem:
Currently, time entered in Xero Projects cannot flow into Gusto (or future Xero Payroll). Teams must re-enter time or rely on external payroll systems, creating duplicate work, errors, and reconciliation overhead. This makes processing payroll today (Gusto, Paychex, ADP) feel disconnected from the rest of the Xero ecosystem.
Proposed Solution:
Allow Xero Payroll (coming later this year) to pull approved project time directly from Xero Projects, with flexible mapping to payroll earning types and pay rates for employees, associates, and contractors.
Benefits:
• Enter time once and use it for both invoicing and payroll
• Eliminate duplicate data entry
• Reduce payroll errors
• Strengthen Xero Payroll (coming later this year) as a native Xero module
• Better support project-based and service businesses
Outcome:
A unified, end-to-end workflow where Xero Projects becomes the system of record for labor and Xero Payroll (coming later this year) consumes that data seamlessly.
