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.

Vote Critical!!
Most payroll providers (including MYOB and others) already offer reducing balance functionality for deductions, and it would be a huge improvement if Xero did the same.
Why it matters:
Reducing balances remove the need for manual follow-up.
They ensure the correct deduction amount is applied each pay run.
They eliminate the risk of over-deducting, and avoid the admin burden of tracking balances separately.
Example:
If an employee has scissors sharpened for $150, I currently need to set up a recurring $15 deduction, then manually track when to stop it after 10 weeks. With reducing balances, the system would simply reduce the balance each week and automatically stop once paid off.
When you have dozens of employees at different stages of paying off tools, scissors, and other items, manual reminders (like calendar alerts) aren’t practical.
Some days I even consider moving back to MYOB because they already have this feature.
Please add reducing balance deductions to Xero Payroll. It will save small business owners significant time and prevent costly mistakes. -

I’m from NZ and this is essentially
I need to allocate all costs and expenses to three different salon locations
This includes payroll
I can put employee into categories/groups. BUT I can pull a report that has these groups for payroll.
This is crazy
