Xero Payroll should have a way to assess employees for pension enrollment without having to first post a payroll.
I also noticed that the assessment is based on the monthly salary for the initial payroll rather than the employee's annual salary. So, eligible employees who start partway through a month and earned less than the monntly pension threshold in their month are assessed as not eligible. The system then has to reasses them the following month when they earn a full month's salary and reach or exceed the monthly earnings threshold.
Xero really need to come up with a better way to do the pension assessments.

This report, in a tabulated format, is a standard report in all the other payroll softwares that I have used in the past 25 years. Many businesses have to submit the total earnings and deductions per each employee report to their year-end accountants or auditors. Businesses who make R&D tax credit claims would also have to provide a similar report with the monthly payroll breakdown per employee to the provider managing their R&D claim.
I'm surprised that Xero doesn't have this standard and basic report. Instead we have to run the payroll Activity details report for the year but the report is in an odd layout (like the Xero payslips) so, you end up wasting time manually collating the data into a spreadsheet. Thanks to Xero Payroll's weird reports, a 1 minute exercise becomes a time-consuming task.
If Xero won't provide tabulated annual summary reports, I wish they would at least let user be able to design and create their own reports from scratch.
Xero has a p

Hey everyone, thanks for all your feedback on displaying leave balances in days on payslips. We recognise that many of you are keen to see this feature.
Our product team has reviewed this suggestion. While we understand the value it'd bring, it isn't on our foreseeable roadmap. As a result, we're updating the status of this idea to 'Not in Pipeline'.
We're keeping this idea open for votes to help us gauge its popularity when we next review our payroll priorities. We appreciate you taking the time to share your thoughts with us.🙂

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. 🙂

Can Xero please include the start and end dates for deductions where an employee pays a fixed recurring amount for a specific period of time.
Deductions such as Cyclescheme (Cycle to Work), Childcare Voucher scheme, Season Ticket Loans are usually a fixed amount for a period range. At present, the user must remember when the last deduction is made and manually remove the pay item from the employee's payroll profile to stop any further deductions being made. However, removing the pay item from the employee profile means that the year-to-date deduction amount in the tax year is no longer displayed on the subsequent payslips after the final deduction was made.
Example, UK Payroll, April to March tax year:
A £1,200 student ticket loan is being repaid over 10 months from May to February. A £120 per month deduction pay item is added to the employee profile from May. I must manually remove this pay item in March to avoid any futher deductionns being made. However, iremoving the pay item means that the £1,200 YTD deduction will not be displayed on the March payslip as it should.
Start and end dates feature should also be available for benefits (e.g., medical insurance) because the annual amount changes each year and, in most cases, the benefit year usually differs to the tax year.
This is a standard feature in other payroll systems. Why was this omitted from Xero Payroll?
