Thanks for the great discussion and all the votes on this idea. We know that without the ability to set specific leave approvers, it can be harder to keep governance clear, avoid self-approval and ensure requests go to the right person.
While we’re not planning to develop dedicated approval workflows in the near term, we want to share a tip that many have found useful. You can help streamline the process by guiding employees to select their direct manager from the approver list. While all payroll admins and leave approvers are listed, this step helps make sure requests reach the right person and keeps oversight clear.
Your feedback here is incredibly valuable for future planning and we’ll continue to keep an eye on this idea’s traction. We’ll keep it open for voting and will share any updates if plans change down the track.

Hi everyone, thanks for supporting and sharing how enabling employees to update their own bank details in Xero Me would be beneficial to you.
We’ve recently released updates to Xero Me so that employees can view and update certain personal details directly from their app. This is part of our ongoing work to give employees more control over their information and reduce manual work for payroll admins.
However, the ability for employees to update their own payment details in Xero Me is not something we’re currently planning. When it comes to bank account and payment details, there are additional considerations we need to take into account. In many regions, employment legislation as well as fraud-prevention obligations mean we must be especially careful about how payment details are collected, changed and who can authorise those changes.
We really appreciate you taking the time to share how you’re using Xero Me today…

I would love the ability to drag and drop more than one file in into the inbox at once back please. Had two separate emails, each with an attachment. I don't want to have to "email" them to Xero or save the attachments to a folder to upload. It is much quicker to just drag and drop them one at the time. Now I have to drag one, deal with it and then drag and drop the next one.

Great to hear you like the new layout of the navigation, Jason.
Appreciate how further customisation of reports and possible nesting under the relevant menu drop downs could be useful. We'll get a gauge of the interest in this from others in the community here.
This isn't something we have plans for atm, but will share if this gets picked up at all.

Hi Sophie ✨, thanks for your feedback on this idea. We're well aware how the generic descriptions in pay run journals can be confusing when they don't align with your specific payroll settings. We understand that you've been using workarounds like exporting reports to Excel and manually editing them to get the detail you need. While this can help in the short term, we recognize it is a time-consuming process that shouldn't be necessary.We've shared your valuable feedback with our product team. As with all new features, we have to balance this against other development priorities. We can't promise a specific timeline, but the more support an idea gets, the higher it climbs on our list. Please continue to vote and comment on this and similar ideas to show your support. We'll be sure to provide another update when we can✨

Thanks for continuing to follow along and join in the support of this idea, community. To reiterate on our last update we appreciate and understand the need in being able to easily view an employees' leave balances when reviewing leave.
As already spotted from comments here, I'd like to share an update with the release of projected leave balances in Xero Payroll Australia. This feature has just been rolled out to Payroll admins, where you'll be able to view an employees estimated leave balance when adding, editing or approving leave. You'll be able to view a calculation breakdown and will see a warning when a leave request may result in a negative balance. Helping you to better assess and manage leave for your organisation. 😁
We understand this feature is desired in other regions we offer Payroll and we'll continue to consider how this may be adopted in other…

Hi everyone, thanks for your suggestions regarding consolidating the information provided in the current leave reports and the suggestion to include a running leave balance.
We appreciate that the current leave reports in Xero require exporting out of Xero and manual work to track running balances. We hear that this can add time to your workflows.
After reviewing this idea, we're updating this idea to Not in Pipeline. Whilst we can see the value to you for this particular report configuration, this isn’t an idea that’s on our product teams foreseeable roadmap.
We know this isn't the outcome you hoped for, and we value your input as it helps us understand what matters to the community. The idea remains open for votes so we can continue gauging interest. We’re constantly reviewing the level of support for your ideas, so will keep you updated if the status changes in the future.

MYOB has a report like this (see attached). This would be ideal in Xero too!

Hi everyone, thanks for sharing your thoughts on having a payroll report that calculates payroll state tax. We understand some of you are required to calculate tax across multiple states.
While we don't currently have a report which calculates earnings based on state, some of you have mentioned workarounds such as using the Payroll Activity Summary report. This report includes earnings totals and can be filtered by a date range and employee groups.
We recognise the value a report of this nature could have for our customers and it’s been added to the wider pool of ideas for our product team to consider for future development.
While it’s not on our immediate roadmap, we’ll be sure to keep you looped in if there’s any progress.

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.

Hi everyone, thank you for your continued feedback. We appreciate you sharing how important selecting multiple employees is for you when running payroll reports.
The good news is our product team has reviewed this idea and agrees it is a valuable addition to Xero. We have updated the status to Accepted.
This feature is not currently on our immediate development roadmap, however by accepting it we are formally adding it to our backlog for consideration.
We will keep tracking interest here and update you as soon as we have news.

Hi there, as part of our ongoing review process, we’re in the process of updating our idea statuses to better track Xero Product Ideas.
We’ve taken another look at this idea. Whilst we can see the value for payroll administrators to be able to view the payslip in PDF from within the Employee’s record, this update doesn’t currently fit into our product team’s road map. We’ll move this idea to a status of Accepted and will continue to review this in future planning.

Hi team we appreciate the feedback and interest in adding the Tracking Summary report to Report Templates here. Being upfront this isn't something we have plans for.
However, we've made a recent update to enable you to adding a custom Tracking Summary report to Adviser packs which may meet some of the needs here.
I see there's also been mentions in this thread of users that'd like to add payroll report to report templates and I wanted to highlight this idea that I'd recommend adding your vote for if of interest. Thanks!

Hi community, we appreciate hearing your interest around the reports that would be useful for you to use in Report Templates.
We have decided to split the request for Payroll reports and the Tracking Summary report as it is unlikely these would both be added at once.
You'll find the new idea for the Tracking Summary report across here and this one will remain centered around Payroll reports.
We want to be honest that we don't have any plans at this stage for adding payroll reports to Report Templates. But, our product teams are aware of the interest surrounding this and we'll let you know if there is any progress on this idea.

Think this is a great idea. Would also be good to have an option to be able to enter a "service break" period which reduces the length of service. I've work at places where people have had significant time off without pay (6-12 months) which would reduce the length of service calculation particularly for LSL
