Hi there. With Payday Super changes coming soon, we know many of you will be thinking about how the new super payment timing will work for your business. It’s something we’re keeping a close eye on too.
While this particular idea isn’t currently on our product team’s roadmap, it’s on our radar and we’re actively monitoring the feedback here.
There are also a couple of related ideas focused on super payment timing that are already in development:
AU Payroll: Superannuation > standardised payment date aligned with PayDay Super - In Development
AU Payroll - Payday super reminders - In Development
If either of these would help, we’d really appreciate you adding your vote.

Hi team, we appreciate the interest here especially with upcoming Payday Super. I'd like to share that notifications and prompts are being developed with some of the changes we're working on, and achieve what's being asked here.
I'll round back when this is live and confirm what these look like to help in your processing of Superannuation here.

If the payment is occurring at a different time to the transaction being entered is there a reason why the transaction is not being recorded as a bill, Anne-Marie?
There are lots of efficiencies in how bills can now be created in Xero without much manual intervention so would be good to understand more of the detail behind your business needs, here.

Being able to create remittance for Spend Money transactions will help manage stakeholder expectations as we pay down loan balances that don't have bills attached to the loan.

Approve Super Now, Pay on Payday — Future-Dated Super to Match Payday Super Compliance
Currently, when a payroll approver authorises superannuation in Xero, the payment is submitted to the clearing house immediately or on the next business day — regardless of when wages are scheduled to land. This creates a compliance tension for businesses using future-dated ABA files, where wages are processed ahead of pay day but released on a scheduled date.
With the introduction of Payday Super legislation in Australia from 1st July 2026, employers are required to pay super on the same day as wages. Xero should allow the authorised super approver to approve the super payment at the time of payroll finalisation, with the clearing house submission automatically scheduled to coincide with the nominated pay date , not the approval date.
This would give businesses a single, clean payroll workflow: process, approve, and schedule everything on one day, with wages and super both landing on the correct pay date. It removes the need to return to Xero on pay day solely to release super (which might be a weekend), reduces the risk of timing non-compliance, and brings Xero's super workflow in line with the realities of Payday Super obligations.
For any Xero customer using future-dated payroll, which will become increasingly common as businesses adapt to Payday Super, this feature is not a nice-to-have. It is the missing piece of a compliant, fully automated monthly payroll workflow.
