Thanks for your strong feedback on logging start and end times in NZ Payroll timesheets. We understand some of you are currently using workarounds or additional softwares to track start and end times.
I'm pleased to let you know we're moving this idea to In discovery, which means the product team is now reviewing the viability of this feature. This is an important step as we explore what it would take to bring this functionality to NZ Payroll and how it could best serve your needs.
We'll keep you updated as we learn more.

Xero, it's been a year and OZ has this functionality. Stop ignoring NZ customer base, and just add the same features, why do we have to request this sort of functionality...

Hi everyone, thanks for getting behind this idea and sharing the need for employees to add multiple earnings rates to Start and End timesheets.
Your examples demonstrate how different earnings rates in a single timesheet would save time and improve payroll accuracy for industries with varied awards.
We understand many of you are currently editing timesheets after employees submit them, which adds extra steps.
The good news is that idea is now in discovery. Our product team is currently reviewing the viability of this idea and exploring what a solution could look like.
We will post an update here as soon as we have more news.

Hey everyone, as a first off we'd like to say a big thank you to everyone that filled in their details and engaged with our teams research in this space.
I'm pleased to return with a further update for you all.
We have been developing the capability fir employees to self onboard to Xero Payroll. Our feature would enable employees to enter their own onboarding details via a secure web form. Giving payroll admins back more time to focus on more important tasks.
We want to be upfront that the intention is to release this in the Australian version of Xero Payroll first, with NZ and UK to follow. We will keep you up to date of the release here. 😊

Hi everyone, thanks for voting and your detailed comments on this idea.
We understand the challenge of having to navigate away from the approval screen to find an employee's leave balance. Providing this information directly within the approval screen could streamline the process and reduce the risk of approving leave that results in a negative balance.
The good news is that our product team's reviewed this idea and recognise the value it would deliver. It's something they’d like to work on in the long term. It's not on the roadmap just yet but we'll update you when we're able to bring more focus to this idea.

Hi everyone, we'd like to return with an update for all who've supported the idea for attaching files within Payroll.
As we develop foundations of payroll to enable us to consider new features like this, we're beginning discovery of how we might build this capability and when this could be planned in our roadmap.
This is just the initial stages of diving deeper into this work, but steering in the right direction.
I'll be sure to share any progression around attachments within payroll with you all, here.

Hey all, it’s been a little while since this was raised, so we wanted to check in.
Right now it is possible to apply tracking to payroll timesheets, however as pointed out by John, there is currently no full Payroll > Projects integration so tracking does not apply to project jobs. We'd encourage you all to show support for this alternative idea to include tracking in projects.
Not getting a lot of support from other members here, 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 the feedback. We recognise that a timesheet summary report would be a valuable addition to NZ Payroll.
This idea has been moved to our Accepted for future consideration.
While it isn’t currently on our roadmap, we’ll check back in here if that status changes.
We appreciate you continuing to share how this would impact your workflows

Hi everyone, an update to my earlier message:
This change was specific to users of the Australian payroll.
Apologies, and we'll shift this idea back to 'Submitted' so we can continue to track and share if there are developments in New Zealand Payroll.
However, at the moment this is not in the team's plans.
- If you operate across multiple regions, and are interested in reading more, I've updated this idea. which is specific to AU.
Thanks for your understanding.

Hi everyone, thanks for sharing your feedback on pre-tax deductions for salary sacrifice schemes like WorkRide. We appreciate you sharing how you’re currently managing these.
Currently you can achieve the result of a pre-tax deduction in Xero payroll by using a Discretionary Payment category pay item and entering the deduction amount as a negative figure. Gross earnings are effectively reduced, eliminating the need for PAYE adjustments.
We recognise that this workaround may not be a perfect fit for all schemes. While this feature is not yet on our immediate roadmap, we have updated its status to Accepted. This ensures it is flagged for formal consideration by our product team during future planning cycles. We'll keep you updated as things progress and value your continued input.

Hi everyone, thanks for your feedback on allowing authorised employees to approve timesheets. We appreciate you sharing how having managers approve timesheets without full payroll access could help streamline processes.
Our product team is currently exploring more granular permission levels in payroll, so we’ve moved the idea to Accepted.
Although this isn't currently on the roadmap, we'll keep you updated as things progress. Thanks for your continued input.

Hey everyone! It's been insightful reading through your comments on filtering payroll reports by both first and last name.
Our product team have reviewed this idea and agree it's an idea they would like to develop, but it isn't currently on the roadmap.
In the meantime, as mentioned by some of you you'll need to export the data to work with outside of Xero. We understand this may be an extra step and appreciate this feature could improve efficiency for a variety of situations.
We'll keep you updated as things progress. Your continued input helps us understand the priority and impact of features like this one.

Hi team, we want to be upfront that we don't have immediate plans for enabling the ability to create multiple draft pay runs in NZ Payroll.
If this is something you'd like to see developed for NZ Payroll please add your vote here and we will continue to get a sense of the overall interest from community, and can share if there are any plans made.
