    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.

    It would be great to have this available for users of the Extraordinary pre-tax Public Transport offering too!

    We've had multiple customers request this, and I'd love to help with any questions that the Xero team have about how this works from the Extraordinary customer side - please reach out!

    Cheers,
    Greg
