    Hi everyone, thanks for your continued feedback. To be upfront, we do not have any planned work to change how non-reportable allowances are processed at this stage. Currently, you need to use a reimbursement pay item to process these allowances. Our product team has confirmed that this remains a compliant solution with the ATO.

    However, we hear you. We know that relying on reimbursements involves workflow challenges. While it's not on our immediate roadmap, we will continue to monitor your feedback and will update this thread if anything changes.

    Agreed. It makes no sense whatsoever to have a box that you can tick to say non-reportable W1 (in the earnings category of the Payroll Settings) if it then still gets reported (incorrectly) to the ATO. Please Xero fix this ASAP!!
    LOADS of charitable organisations including churches have non-reportable earnings as a portion of their wage (this is not a reimbursement - which is currently the only way these earnings can be recorded). Putting these wages (earnings) in as a reimbursement throws out Superannuation and Leave Entitlement for these employees. This is crazy!!!
