Thanks so much for sharing this idea 🙂 We can see how having to look up and re-enter the BPAY biller code and reference each time could slow things down and increase the chance of errors. Saving these details to the supplier’s contact would make the payment process much smoother. For now, we’d like to get a sense of the support for this from the community.

Hi everyone, thanks for sharing and supporting this idea.
We can see how being able to add supplier BPAY details directly to a contact would be helpful, especially when a supplier only accepts BPAY. Right now, Xero only supports bank account details on the contact, so BPAY details like biller code and reference number aren’t captured in a dedicated way.
We’re moving this idea to Gaining Support so we can better understand how many customers this impacts and the different ways BPAY is being used. If this would help your workflow, please add your vote and share a comment with a bit more detail about how you currently manage these payments.
Thanks again for raising this — we’ll keep you updated here as we learn more.

Hey team, me again. Apologies, getting a little ahead of ourselves with the status of this idea.
I can confirm that self onboarding of new employees is live for Xero Payroll in AU, however this feature does not extend to NZ organisations right now.
This will be something we continue to consider as we keep developing Payroll for NZ and I'll share any further updates with you all here. Thanks

The old paper mechanism, even by email, is so outdated and insecure we need it to be modernised
There are a few aspects to this:
Most BPAY references do not change (utility bills are an example of this) so why have the requirement to capture this more than once?
Where a BPAY reference is linked to a supplier bill number, ie: the reference changes each time, then the Biller Code should be recorded on the contact record and the reference number left blank to force its capture on bill payment.
From a bookkeeping perspective there should be no difference in process between BPAY details and BSB/Account details. If a change is made on the contact record, or during bill payment then an email should be sent to flag that payment details have changed.
