    Hi community, thanks for the strong support in being able to attach files within Xero Payroll, both for employee records and pay runs. We really appreciate you sharing the value and efficiency this could create for you when working with Xero. It's evident that being able to store important documents like licenses, sick notes, and onboarding papers directly in Xero would remove the need for external storing systems or manual processes.

    We acknowledge it's not the end goal but wanted to highlight the use of apps, as some have shared like Dext, to help bridge this gap in the meantime.

    I want to assure you that enabling attachments in payroll is part of our long-term intentions. However, to deliver this functionality effectively and reliably, we first need to develop some foundational elements within our payroll platform.

    We understand your frustration with the timeline and the limited updates, and we're…

    My sentiments exactly @judymoore! Xero have not responded at all with a comment. Ignoring this seems to be the norm. Xero is good software but 'others' have caught up and indeed left xero behind in their capabilities and offerings.
    Comment please Xero.

    Is it possible for someone from Xero to actually respond to this request. It's been here for such a long time with no comments from Xero. I feel that because we can already attach files to many other areas it seems the process is there. Id it so much more background work to get it happening?

    Is this still on Xero's backburner?? how many votes does a topic require for Xero to actually look at and at least start the process? Obviously it is something we all need and in this age of Privacy concerns I would have thought this is a real, topical and major issue and something you need to action. Soon.

    Hey everyone 👋 Thanks so much for all the detailed feedback on applying work patterns for part-time employees. We’ve been following the conversation and understand that manually adjusting pay runs for pro-rata entitlements can be a real challenge. It’s clear that having this automated could save time and give you greater peace of mind.

    I’m pleased to let you know our product team has reviewed this idea and we’re updating the status to ‘Accepted’. This means that while it’s not on our immediate roadmap, it’s something we see real value in and want to bring into Xero when we can prioritise the work.

    In the meantime, the workarounds shared here, like manually adjusting hours in each pay run, remain the best approach. We really appreciate you taking the time to share your thoughts, as your feedback plays a crucial role in shaping Xero. We’ll keep you updated on any developments…

    Hey everyone 👋thanks so much for your ongoing feedback and commitment to supporting this idea.

    We understand the need for a straightforward process to download all payslips at once, particularly for WorkCover claims or employee requests where multiple payslips are required. We’re excited to let you know that our product team is now actively working on a solution to allow bulk downloading of payslips.

    In the meantime, you can use the Payroll Activity Details report to get a detailed breakdown of each payslip. It's also worth noting that employees can access and download their own payslips directly through the Xero Me portal.

    We'll keep you updated on our progress right here. 🙂

    Well said @sharonhyde
    Xero - no response/update to this idea since November 2023. What is happening? some communication would be appreciated. Just finished downloading payslips for 6 clients ADMS lodgements. How time consuming and frustrating.

    @Catherine_Burford I would say you have been a little lucky with this. When I did upload that report I actually received a phone call stating it is not compliant - must have the ABN on each payslip and the Activity Summary does not do this.
    Xero - do we have any comments on this feature yet?

    @beau Gaudron - wow! thanks so much for sharing this hack - you have saved me so much time. I am very appreciative for your input and experience - shame Xero deems this operation as not very important.

    THANK YOU!

    Perhaps you are not quite seeing the big picture on this Xero? From my perspective, its not the employees wanting this - its me! Having to download/upload one by one payslip when dealing with apprentices is getting very tedious. If is was just one employee once a quarter I wouldn't be so frustrated! Seems like community wants this but its way down your list xero. Shame.

    Anyone who deals with apprentices knows how important this function is. Telling the employee to go to Xero Me is not the answer! Is it possible to at least have the company ABN on the Employee reports? Apparently this is acceptable to the authorities as well. Would save us so much time.

    Thanks for your engagement with this idea to allow setting specific working days for part-time employees in AU Payroll. We understand wanting to handle these common working arrangements smoothly and accurately.

    We know this is a key area for improvement and we'd like to look into this deeper in the long term, however it’s not in our roadmap just yet.

    Right now you'll need to manually adjust leave requests.

    We'll be sure to provide another update as we move forward with our investigations.

    Thanks for your feedback so far, everyone.
    We're currently looking at ways we could help fix double counting for issues at the ATO that have been made due to changes made to an organisation's ABN/Branch number and it'd be great to get input and further feedback from some of you here to help us understand and solve these issues.

    Hi community, your ongoing interest in giving users the ability to reconcile without viewing account balances is welcomed.

    We understand why this level of bank permission control matters. As recently mentioned in my updates on this idea, while we do have current work for user roles underway there is more complexities to developing permissions within the banking space and this isn't on the immediate roadmap.

    As we continue our journey to evolving roles within Xero we'll be sure to share any progress for permissions in bank accounts with you all, here.

    Xero should realise this is a very important issue. The time and effort it takes to manually amend the accrued hours seems such a 'backward' step and errors can be made so easily! Xero was such a forward thinking company with great ideas but now you are slipping behind.
    We must have leave accrue for weekend, after hours etc etc etc. It is imperative this be sorted.

    This should be a priority for xero. We have to deal with so many different scenarios everyday and something like this should already be in practice! I really would just like the ability to enter a pay rate for a pay item and select that item to accrue leave. Sounds easy enough but I realise lots goes on in the background but we already accrue leave for other items!

    Hey everyone! Thanks so much for your feedback and for sharing your thoughts on this. It’s clear from the support this idea has gained that automated reminders for superannuation payments could be a huge help for many of you. We hear you and can see how this could make managing your obligations smoother.

    Our product team has taken a look at this and we’re exploring how we can build it in to help you stay on top of the proposed PayDay Super changes. It’s on our roadmap, and we’ll keep you posted as things move forward. 🙂

    Would save so much time checking and re checking. We are all busy and I can understand clients may miss the sms sometimes but this idea helps keep things moving.

    Great news team, work has been moving along well and I'm pleased to share our teams are developing the ability for employees to self-onboard by entering their own onboarding details within Xero Payroll in Australia.

    We appreciate the extra admin and time this will take back for Payroll admins to be able to focus on the more critical payroll tasks. Currently in testing with a small group of users, I look forward to coming back with more details as we progress to release.

    Hi team, we’ve seen a lot of support for this idea, and acknowledge why you’d like a simple way of reflecting if part of a fixed asset is used privately.

    As Xero doesn’t currently offer a built-in way to allocate depreciation between business and private use I wanted to re-highlight from our last update how this can be recorded -

    Currently you could post manual journals to record the private use apportionment of a Fixed Assets depreciation.

    If you're using Fixed Assets in NZ it's possible to set up an asset and apportion a % for private use. However, it's important to note that it's not possible to apportion the private use depreciation of an asset prior to using Xero. In this case when you sell the asset a manual journal may be needed to correctly state the private use.

    At this time, we want to be upfront that our…
