Hi everyone, a quick update on multi-authorisation for Payday Super.
We recognise that multi-authorisation is a priority for many of you, particularly as Payday Super approaches and businesses review how they manage super payments in Xero.
Our Product team is actively working on an enhanced workflow for this, which is on track for release next quarter.
We’ll share more updates as soon as we have more to confirm.

Xero has a little over 18 months to implement this before payday super comes in and employers will be required to pay super on payday, even if the super authoriser is on leave.
I'm going to need Xero to pay my minimum 4 hour shift wages for each of the days I have to log in during my workplace's Christmas shutdown period in 2026, just to run super for clients and prevent them being late and subject to penalties. Looking at the calendar, that's at least five days worth because I'll have payday super on every single weekday except Fridays.

We had a situation recently - fortunately we pay our clients' super monthly rather than quarterly (smooths out cash flow), and it was a monthly batch not an EOQ batch! The authoriser for the super batch for one client was out sick, and since it's illegal to require people to work while they're on sick leave, this client's super couldn't be authorised until they were back in the office. So it was late (with regards to our agreement with that client; thank everything that it was the April and not the June super!) and we had no way of fixing that.

This is essential. If I get hit by a bus, my clients' employees still need to be paid and their super obligations dealt with. And where the subscriber and the approver are the same person, this gives a single point of failure (and Xero won't be paying the Superannuation Guarantee Charge if the super is late due to having that single point of failure)

We have an office mobile, so that no approval codes for any of our clients are going to personal mobile phones without audit oversight. Having said that, sometimes the client should be allowed to send off their own super...

Hi Junn Thanks for sharing your feedback about what you enjoyed in the old timesheet layout.
We don't accept ideas for removing or reverting to a previous experience as this forum is specifically for new ideas.
However we appreciate the points you've raised about productivity gains that you'd love to see in the new experience, so we have moved this to gaining support.
Now it's up to the community to get behind and support it. This helps our product team know what matters most to you all.

Hi Stephen, not at a Projects level atm, but perhaps the ability to set default sales accounts for your contacts could solve you needs here?

Hi everyone, apologies it's been so long since our last engagement here. We appreciate the additional feedback that's been shared.
Right now, it's not possible to assign bills to projects that have a Closed/Completed status. Instead, the best option would be to update the status of the Project temporarily to be able to assign your bill/s and then re close it.
Being upfront this isn't something we have any plans for enabling in the near term. If the position of this idea changes we will share an update here.

Hi everyone, while our team considered solutions in this space with other pieces of work planned there is no current development planned for adding a notes or description field within Projects at this time.
For now, as you may be aware you can add notes to the History and notes of the individual transactions within a project, or alternatively on the Contacts record.
We're continuing to watch this space and will share if there is any progress.

I have had to add Tasks to Projects just to make sure that the quirks of invoicing for the Project are visible to everyone who might need to see it, and that those quirks get updated regularly. This is a silly workaround.

Hi community, we appreciate everyone's engagement here. To confirm we have intentions of developing the purchase order experience, however developing Projects into this does have some complexities and requires work across both purchase orders and projects to deliver.
Right now our initial focus is releasing the new purchase order experience to all users.
While we don't have a timeframe for assigning PO's to Projects at this stage, this is top of our product teams radar and we'll communicate here as soon as there's an update.

This would be incredibly useful right now - I already have a Project set up for a particular clients' work, they've requested some more work which I'll put in the same Project, but to source things related to that new work, I have to issue purchase orders. Those purchase orders should be linked to the Project so that people looking at the Project can see what has been ordered and what hasn't yet!

Hi everyone, I'm pleased to share that we're moving forward with the ability to schedule the send of an invoice from Xero.
We're in the early phase of releasing our new invoicing scheduler to customers, and appreciating the direct interest you've all shown here we've included everyone that's voted on this idea in our initial rollout!
You'll see a tool tip on the invoice page for email scheduling, and be able to choose the right date/time when you go to email an invoice (from the send email dropdown). 😊
We're really keen to hear your feedback.
We appreciate there are asks within this idea for being able to schedule the send of other document type such as payslips and want to be upfront that this isn't in the roadmap at present. However, once our invoice scheduler is out to all, we'll be monitoring it's use closely and consider how this…

I customise the invoice emails with things like what the invoice is for - if it's for a particular month, a particular project, or which progress payment number it is. Right now, the only way to do that while scheduling the send ahead of time is to send the invoice to self and schedule the forwarding in my external email program, which is a stupid workaround that won't work for all email programs (and also requires me to leave my computer on and Outlook running if I want the scheduled email to send when I'm on holidays - that also depends on your settings, apparently there's ways to get around that in some versions)

The ability to pre-schedule the sending of invoices would allow me to create the invoice when I have an easy day before EOM and have it send at the right time when I'm juggling a billion things during EOM. Especially when EOM coincides with payroll, there's rarely time to get everything done, and sending invoices is lower priority than paying people, which then has knock-on effects on cashflow.

I have eight separate client payruns that are due between Christmas this year and when I get back into the office again. I'd really like to be able to schedule the sending of payslips so that I don't have to log in while on annual leave (which is illegal for an employer to require in Australia) to send the payslips within one day of the various paydays (which is a legal requirement in Australia).

@Derrick Murphy not to mention that logging in to send one invoice can trigger minimum shift payments from one's contract - I know my own contract has a provision that I get paid a minimum of four hours worth when I work for less than four hours in a day (it's very common here in Australia, where the legal minimum shift under most Awards is 3-4 hours). And it's really not worth it to my boss to pay me for four hours when I'm doing less than 15 minutes work on my day off!

@Geoff Schmidt in your scenario (prep payroll on Friday for payment on Monday) it's a legal requirement under the Fair Work Act 2009 (Cwth) that pay slips be sent within one working day of pay day, so technically sending the pay slips on the Friday would be legal (assuming a Monday to Friday working week). If you prepped payroll on Friday for payment on Tuesday, however, it would not be legal (technically) to send pay slips on the day that payroll was prepared.

I would love to be able to schedule an invoice so it sends when I'm on leave!

I would dearly love to be able to create December 2023 invoices before Christmas to be sent on the 2nd January, so that I wouldn't have to come back from holidays early just to ensure continuity of cashflow later.
I'd also dearly love to be able to create the payroll that's due for automated payment during the EOY break before I left to visit family, and have the payslips send on the day that it's scheduled for payment! It's not a break if I have to log in to send payslips, it's technically illegal in Australia for payslips to be sent that early (under the Fair Work Act 2009 they must be sent within 1 working day of the date of payment), and it's definitely illegal for them to be sent after I get back from holidays.

Thanks for your suggestion about syncing XPM timesheets with Payroll, Rebecca. We see how this could add value and reduce manual work.
Atm, this isn’t on our roadmap, however we'll continue to keep a watch on the support this idea receives.
We appreciate your feedback and involvement in the Xero community. If the status of this idea changes, we’ll update you here.

If the super authoriser is also the subscriber, as it is for a LOT of small to medium businesses, then that's a single point of failure. If that person gets hit by a bus, there is no way to transfer the ability to pay super fast enough to meet payday super requirements, and they'll be subject to penalties from the ATO through no fault of their own.
