    Hey everyone! It's been really insightful reading through your comments on adding a preferred name field to employees. We see how this feature could help with creating a more inclusive environment, while also helping prevent simple administrative mix-ups.

    There isn’t a dedicated way to manage this in Xero right now, but your feedback has highlighted the opportunity for one. For this reason, we have updated the idea's status to Accepted, confirming our product team agrees this is a feature we’ll put on our radar to consider developing in the future.

    We’ll let you know as soon as we have an update here.

    Changing an employee's surname due to marriage, for example, changes their details for historical payslips and all other payroll historical reports. Could a field be added perhaps that allows for 'maiden name' or 'previously known as' without disrupting historical info?
