Heya team, thanks for all your input here. We hear you, and understand that being able to assign multiple tracking categories to pay items would improve your reporting capabilities, and simplify tracking costs for various projects, locations, or departments.
For now, we’d suggest using manual journals to split and reallocate payroll costs after a pay run. Alternatively as some have shared, you could create specific pay items for each tracking category combination, although we recognise this may not be suitable for all.
While this isn’t in our plans at this stage we understand the rationale here and will consider how tracking works within payroll closely as we continue to develop our roadmap.
If there are any changes or news for tracking in payroll we’ll be sure to update you of this here.

Hi team, we appreciate your engagement here and wanted to provide you with an update.
There are many good suggestions shared in this thread on how to currently process this in Xero. Alternatively, you could create a bill to make and track these payments. Employees can then review their balance directly with the scheme provider.
Atm, the changes required to implement this aren’t on our road map, however we’ll continue to monitor the support for this idea. We'll be sure to keep you updated if there are any changes in the future.

Hey team 😊 happy to come back to share that this work is now underway with our product team as they begin development for managing files within Xero Payroll.
We really value the feedback we've received from you all in this idea, which has helped inform our teams approach to developing a solution that will fit majority of needs.
I'll return to share as we get nearer to release with more information on what this looks like including where and how you'll be able to attach files in Payroll.

Firstly, thank you for all the support and detailed input on this idea. We know an automated Leave Liability Report could be a valuable tool for accurately reflecting a business’s financial position in AU Payroll.
While it’s not something we’re planning to build in the immediate future, we’ve seen some useful suggestions from the community, such as using manual journal entries or tracking in spreadsheets, though we recognise these aren’t perfect solutions.
We appreciate the time and thought you’ve put into sharing your feedback. While we’re moving this idea to Not in pipeline for now, we’ll continue to monitor its traction and share any updates if plans change.

Hi everyone, we really appreciate the sentiment and engagement on the idea of being able to forecast leave balances.
We know this feature could make planning ahead and managing leave approvals much easier, but at this stage it’s not something we’re planning to develop in the near term, so we’ll be moving it to 'Not in pipeline'.
We’ll continue to keep an eye on how this idea trends in the community and will leave it open for voting. If our plans change, we’ll share an update here.

Hi everyone, thanks for sharing your thoughts on this! With Payday Super legislation now active, superannuation contributions align directly with regular pay runs. Because of this shift to real-time processing, quarterly due date reminders are no longer necessary.
To assist with compliance under the new legislation, we have added reminder prompts directly to the super payment page to highlight which accruals are at risk of being late.
As a result, we won't be moving forward with quarterly reminder updates for this request. We really appreciate everyone’s feedback on this topic, please continue to share your ideas on how we can keep improving your Xero experience!

Hi everyone, thanks for sharing your feedback on having timesheets displayed in order from newest to oldest, by default. We appreciate you taking the time to explain how this impacts your workflow.
We know some of you have been filtering date ranges as a workaround, though this adds extra steps.
We're updating this idea to Accepted as part of wider timesheet updates which are currently being investigated by our product team. We'll keep you updated as we learn more.

Hi everyone, these are the sort of updates I like sharing! This idea has remained top of mind for our product teams - We appreciate all your feedback and how we could improve managing and reviewing employee timesheets in Xero Payroll.
With that I'd like to let you know that we're updating the timesheet admin experience, including a new timesheet list and a redesigned details view to help you find what you need faster.
Join our early access program ✨
We’d love your help to shape these improvements. We’re looking for customers who manage or approve employee timesheets to join an early access program. You’ll try the new interface and give feedback directly to our team.
What you can expect:
- Easier admin tasks: Navigate your list and details views faster (this only impacts admins, so there’s no change for employees)
- Early access: Try these updates before they’re available…

Hello everyone, while you can currently export reports to compare pay runs, we understand the value of having this capability built directly into Xero and have been following this idea closely.
For now, AU and UK organisations can use the Payroll Activity Details report for one employee at a time by selecting the relevant date range for the pay periods. To help prevent errors, we recommend checking that employee pay templates are set up correctly, ensuring future pay runs are consistent and accurate.
Although this isn’t on our roadmap at present, we recognise the impact it'd have for customers and will continue to consider it as we plan future payroll enhancements. We’ll share any updates related to payroll comparatives here.

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.

Totally agree. Logged a support ticket with Xero thinking it was just me but nope. On positive note though they did refer me to this article/request to add my voice. Hopefully the PTB's will action it.
