    Hi everyone, thanks for providing your thoughts on this idea. We appreciate you sharing how important a CSV payment file is, as some banks don't accept the BACS file.

    You might have seen from a related idea that our product team is currently testing a new feature to allow direct wage payments from Xero payroll.

    While this is not exactly what you’re suggesting, an integrated payment feature would defeat the need for manual payment file exports. We'll be back to share more updates on this.

    It is madness that Xero seem reluctant/unwilling to create a standard CSV file showing Employee name, Bank account info and Net pay? with that i believe ANY upload file could be subsequently created for submission to the majority of banking instituitions.

    Payroll is a staple part of every business and it would be "common sense" for this to be already available rather than the current "standard 18 format" that all banks i work with do not recognise!
