    Hello everyone, we appreciate you engaging with us about this topic. To clarify, we acknowledge support in this idea has arisen from a new requirement from the ATO that means large orgs that withhold over $1M annually to submit PAYGW weekly via STP.

    While we appreciate why you'd like to automate this flow of information from Payroll to BAS within Xero there are two current options;

    • Within Payroll settings you could untick “Reportable as W1 on Activity Statement” so your payroll data is not included in BAS, or
    • Manually remove the W1 and W2 figures from your Activity Statement to lodge activity statements for clients that are submitting weekly PAYGW.

    This idea is on our product teams radar, however we want to be upfront that at this stage we don't have any plans for developing an automation of these fields.

    We'll continue to monitor this idea closely, and share if…

    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.

    Every time there is a public holiday, I am adjusting and triple checking my part time employee hours, which are apportioned across the week, including the PH. Same goes for leave. This is incredibly inefficient and probe to errors. This should be a priority fix for Xero Payroll.

    Thanks team, we understand how beneficial it’d be to archive or remove unused leave types from employee records to keep things tidy.

    It’s something we're exploring as part of our payroll modernisation work, however it hasn't been planned just yet.

    We'll keep monitoring your input here and update the thread if this moves into active development. Thank you again for taking the time to share your thoughts on this.

    Thanks for continuing to follow along and join in the support of this idea, community. To reiterate on our last update we appreciate and understand the need in being able to easily view an employees' leave balances when reviewing leave.

    As already spotted from comments here, I'd like to share an update with the release of projected leave balances in Xero Payroll Australia. This feature has just been rolled out to Payroll admins, where you'll be able to view an employees estimated leave balance when adding, editing or approving leave. You'll be able to view a calculation breakdown and will see a warning when a leave request may result in a negative balance. Helping you to better assess and manage leave for your organisation. 😁

    We understand this feature is desired in other regions we offer Payroll and we'll continue to consider how this may be adopted in other…

    Hi everyone, we've been tracking this idea for some years now and truly value all the feedback we've heard on the desire and time saving reducing the manual steps in reconciliation

    would achieve. We completely get wanting to skip that extra ‘OK’ click when you trust the suggested matches.

    We’re excited to share that this idea is now in development. At Xerocon this year we shared automated bank reconciliation - Using JAX to automatically match and categorise your bank transactions with your Xero transactions.😊

    It's in beta already and being tested by a small group of users atm, and as soon as we have more to share on this rolling out wider I'll give you another update here. Thanks again for helping us shape the future of Xero!

    Yes need this for quickly matching credit card feeds, which match via an add-on application.
