Hi everyone, we appreciate the feedback we've received from customers that would like to use Xero to manage their own personal finances.
We want to be open that we don't have plans for developing a specific product for personal use - However, if you'd like to use a Xero business organisation for monitoring your personal finances, you could follow this process for getting set up:
- Set up your 'personal finances' organisation.
- Edit the Chart of Accounts, adding accounts that you would like to use (eg Salary & Wages, Groceries, Insurance Expense), and delete any unnecessary accounts.
- Add your personal bank accounts and import your bank transactions.
You could then use Tracking to create Categories like Income & Expenditure Goals and add the items that you'd like to track, as options within the related category.
The Tracking Summary Report will give you an overview of these 'goals'.
For customers in the…

Thanks for sharing your idea about filtering super payments by individual pay runs rather than just by pay period.
As you noted, when multiple pay run schedules share the same period, the current filter doesn't separate them. As a workaround, you can open the specific pay run and select Make Payment > Pay Super, as this will group the superannuation exclusively for that specific pay run.
As this is a community support platform it's up to the community to get behind and support your idea. Make sure you share your idea with any colleagues that this could benefit so they can add their vote too!
Along with votes, other members can now comment to share additional detail about how your idea could improve their experience with Xero.

Please add a "today" or Current pay period filter to the Superannuation report. Now that we are paying for each pay period a month is too wide if you pay weekly or fortnightly.
Currently having to enter the date as a custom date range.Lisa Height

Hey community, thanks for your engagement about your needs in Payday Super.
As you may have seen, we've introduced a new auto super overview page which indicates the number of contributions that need attention/are past their expected payment date, as well as batches that need your attention too.
We have plans for developing send email notifications that'll be triggered to all payroll admins;
- 1 day after the expected payment date has passed, and again
- 7 days after if no action has been taken
We'll keep you updated on these notifications here and encourage your continued feedback.

Would also be beneficial to see the ABN or at least see if an ABN is recorded. Agreed this page is too basic.

Thanks for your feedback about setting working days for part-time employees, everyone.
We’re pleased to share that working patterns are now in development, with the first release planned for later this year.
You’ll be able to set a one-week work pattern for each employee, which will automatically be used for leave and public holiday calculations in the pay run. For this first release, you’ll still need to update the employee’s pay template separately to reflect their standard working hours.
We plan to build on this by connecting working patterns with standard hours in the pay run and supporting a broader range of working patterns. We’ll share another update as the release gets closer.

Hi everyone, thanks for your continued feedback about managing working patterns for part-time employees.
We’re pleased to share that we plan to begin rolling out working patterns in AU Payroll later this year.
The first release will allow you to set a one-week work pattern for each employee. This pattern will automatically be used for leave and public holiday calculations in the pay run. At this stage, you’ll still need to update the employee’s pay template separately to reflect their standard working hours.
We plan to build on this foundation by connecting working patterns with standard hours in the pay run and supporting a broader range of working patterns. We’ll share more details as the first release gets closer.

Thanks so much for all your support and input on this idea, everyone.
We understand how helpful it’d be to have a credit limit field for suppliers in Xero, and how it could help manage cash flow and stay within agreed limits with your key suppliers.
A good workaround shared here, is to use the Notes field in the supplier's contact record to manually track their credit limit. While this doesn't automatically stop you from exceeding the limit, it's a visible reminder for your team. Additionally, regularly running the Aged Payables Summary or Detail report can help you keep an eye on what you owe and when it's due.
We know there’s a desire for this functionality, however we want to be transparent that we don’t have any plans for this in the near term, and will move this to Not in pipeline.
The idea will remain open for votes…

This would be a great idea - to get on the front foot with supplier credit accounts.

Thanks everyone, for continuing to share your experiences and examples here. We’ve been following the recent comments and really appreciate the added detail around the challenges this creates in real payment runs, particularly where credits need to be reflected alongside bills so supplier statements and remittances stay aligned.
This March, we released the ability to find and match credit notes when reconciling, which was another highly requested idea on Xero Product Ideas.
We recognise this is an end-of-process solution and doesn’t address the core need raised in this idea. As a quick update from my last post, we’ve done some early exploration into the technical requirements needed to solve the pain points mentioned. This is a complex area to get right, as it touches multiple parts of the bill payments and credit note experience.
At this stage, our focus remains on continuing to develop our bank-agnostic payments solutions across regions,…

Hi community, we acknowledge the strong feelings in this idea and why you need a feature to flag bills directly within Xero. We really appreciate all your feedback and the detailed explanations of how this would help streamline your accounts payable.
We are dedicated to providing a solution for this over the longer term, but this will take some time requiring changes that sit beneath the face of bills.
In lieu of a direct feature for this we wanted to highlight some of the options discussed by the community here:
- Add a note to the bill: A detailed note on the bill itself can serve as a clear internal reminder of the dispute.
- Utilise tracking categories: Creating a specific tracking category like "Disputed Bills" can help you filter and report on these items.
- Adjust the due date: Temporarily extending the due date can prevent accidental payment while the dispute is…

Hi there, we appreciate you raised this a little while ago. This isn't something we have plans for in the near term.
Not getting a lot of support from other members we’ll soon remove this from Product ideas. If it’s still highly valuable to you, welcome to start it again and see if it gets renewed interest.

Hi everyone, thanks for your continued feedback. To be upfront, we do not have any planned work to change how non-reportable allowances are processed at this stage. Currently, you need to use a reimbursement pay item to process these allowances. Our product team has confirmed that this remains a compliant solution with the ATO.
However, we hear you. We know that relying on reimbursements involves workflow challenges. While it's not on our immediate roadmap, we will continue to monitor your feedback and will update this thread if anything changes.

Completely agree - this process just doesnt seem to make sense from the employers or the employees point of view. You also cant put units or rates against reimbursements meaning manual calculations, unclear reporting and room for error.

Can we please add a filter to the Superannuation Accruals report for "today" or "current pay period" - now that we are paying each pay period - this month is too wide a range. Having to enter the date via custom date range.
Or when you do add a link to the report direct from the pay run, make it automatically filter to the matching date.
