Hi team, while we appreciate your feedback and why you'd like to make this field mandatory not all businesses use tracking for payroll. We want to be upfront that we don't have any plans for making the employee groups field mandatory.

Hi there, we appreciate you raised this a little while ago. This isn't something we have plans for in the near term.
Not getting a lot of support from other members we’ll soon remove this from Product ideas. If it’s still highly valuable to you, welcome to start it again and see if it gets renewed interest.

Thank you for your contribution and support on the idea. We understand that the ability to easily save and close in one click would benefit your workflows, however to be upfront we don't have direct plans for making this change within the payslip in the foreseeable future.
We appreciate this is not the news you’d hope to hear, but we'd like to be open and transparent with you on this, here.

Hi community, appreciate your sharing in community here. Atm if you're wanting to change the payment date for an unscheduled pay run, you can edit the payment date while the pay run is in draft status. We don't have any plans for automating this.

Hi everyone, thank you for sharing how your businesses manage salary packages. We understand those using a Super inclusive salary model require manual recalculations with annual SGC increases.
Xero is designed primarily to support small businesses, the vast majority operate on an exclusive salary model. This is largely driven by the award system, where SGC is paid on top of base rate.
Our product team has let us know we don’t have plans on our foreseeable roadmap to change how these calculations are handled in Xero.
We truly appreciate you taking the time to share your workflows with us, as it helps us understand the diverse needs of the Australian business community. We’ll let you know if our priorities change.

Hi everyone, thank you for sharing your feedback on the Employee Contact Details report.
In 2024, this report was updated to include date of birth and age. We’ve noted the suggestions to include start and end dates as well.
Adding further details to this report is not on our current roadmap. As a result, we are moving this request to 'Not in Pipeline.'
We appreciate your continued ideas and feedback, and we will let you know if our priorities change.

Hi everyone, thanks for your feedback on this idea. We appreciate you sharing how important STP reporting is.
The existing solution is to view the STP finalisation screen, as this information is included in the employee's STP summary.
Something to note is that leave paid out on termination has several reporting types depending on the termination reason and leave type (i.e. Type U, Lump Sum A, etc).
If you use the STP finalisation reports, you may like to view this in conjunction with the ATO’s guide: STP Phase 2 Reporting - Quick reference guide.
Creating a new report for unused leave paid out on termination isn’t currently on our product team’s road map, so we've updated this idea to Not in Pipeline. The idea remains open for votes though so we can continue to monitor interest.

Hi team, we appreciate your engagement here and wanted to provide you with an update.
There are many good suggestions shared in this thread on how to currently process this in Xero. Alternatively, you could create a bill to make and track these payments. Employees can then review their balance directly with the scheme provider.
Atm, the changes required to implement this aren’t on our road map, however we’ll continue to monitor the support for this idea. We'll be sure to keep you updated if there are any changes in the future.

Hi everyone, thanks for taking the time to explain how important this functionality is to upload files to leave requests.
We're currently exploring ideas to attach files to employee records, however our product team confirmed that attaching files directly into leave requests is not something we're focusing on at the time. We’ve moved this idea to Not in pipeline.
We know this isn't the update you were hoping for, but we want to be transparent about where things stand. The idea remains open for votes, so we'll continue monitoring community interest and feedback as we plan for the future.

Thank you all for sharing your feedback on how important consolidated employee details are for your businesses.
In November 2023, we released updated payroll reports which allow greater flexibility, however we understand this doesn't fully meet your needs
While employee’s date of birth and account details are accessible from two separate reports, due to the sensitive nature of TFNs, there’s no plans to include these in exportable reports.
While we truly appreciate your feedback and support in this idea, we want to be upfront that we don’t have intentions of combining all the data requested here into a single report that can be exported from Xero Payroll.

Hi everyone, thanks for your feedback on automating leave provisions. Currently Xero does not automatically include leave liabilities on the Balance Sheet. Some of you have mentioned workarounds such as reviewing the Leave Balances Report and creating Manual Journals to include the liability in your reporting.
While we’re dedicated to streamlining payroll calculations, our product team confirmed this specific idea isn't on our foreseeable roadmap. We’ll be updating the status to Not in pipeline. The idea will remain open for votes so we can continue to monitor community interest.

Firstly, thank you for all the support and detailed input on this idea. We know an automated Leave Liability Report could be a valuable tool for accurately reflecting a business’s financial position in AU Payroll.
While it’s not something we’re planning to build in the immediate future, we’ve seen some useful suggestions from the community, such as using manual journal entries or tracking in spreadsheets, though we recognise these aren’t perfect solutions.
We appreciate the time and thought you’ve put into sharing your feedback. While we’re moving this idea to Not in pipeline for now, we’ll continue to monitor its traction and share any updates if plans change.

Hi everyone, thanks for your feedback on having Xero generate a Superannuation guarantee charge statement. We appreciate you sharing how this could streamline late SGC reporting.
We’ve shared this idea with our Product Team who see value in developing this.
While this is not currently on our roadmap, we'll keep you posted if anything progresses.
In the meantime we’ll continue to gauge your support and feedback on this thread.

Hi everyone, thanks for your feedback on Schedule 5 calculations for commissions and bonuses. We appreciate you explaining how important this is for commission-based industries where commission is often the primary income.
Currently Xero payroll requires regular earnings to calculate Schedule 5 tax. We understand the current setup requires manual workarounds when employees have commission-only income.
Our product team has reviewed this idea and moved it to Accepted so it can be formally considered in future planning cycles. We'll keep you updated as things progress.

Hi everyone, thanks for sharing your stories about the time it takes to manage timesheets. We definitely want to make these types of administrative tasks more efficient.
We've reviewed this suggestion and agree it’s a need that we’d like to address in the future.
While we aren’t in a position to start building this just yet, updating the status to Accepted ensures it’s flagged for consideration by our product team during future planning.
We’ll continue to monitor the interest here and will provide further updates as they become available.

Hey everyone! It's been insightful reading through your comments on filtering payroll reports by both first and last name.
Our product team have reviewed this idea and agree it's an idea they would like to develop, but it isn't currently on the roadmap.
In the meantime, as mentioned by some of you you'll need to export the data to work with outside of Xero. We understand this may be an extra step and appreciate this feature could improve efficiency for a variety of situations.
We'll keep you updated as things progress. Your continued input helps us understand the priority and impact of features like this one.

Hi everyone, thanks for your continued feedback on this idea. We appreciate you sharing how important selecting multiple employees is for you when running this report.
Our product team has reviewed this and agree this is something they'd like to develop, though it isn't currently on the roadmap. We’ll update the status to Accepted, so that it’s formally put up for consideration.
In the meantime, Kelly mentioned the Payroll Activity Summary report lets you run reports by employee groups, though we understand this doesn't fully meet your needs with the two tracking category limit.
We'll keep tracking interest here and update you if there's progress.

Hi everyone, thanks for your feedback on this. We appreciate you sharing how important it is to be able to add an additional percentage on top of PAYG.
As you’re aware, you can increase the amount of tax withheld each pay, however the figure must be a fixed amount.
We understand some of you have been using workarounds like manual calculations or withholding variations, which create challenges if employees earnings are not fixed.
While this feature isn't currently on our roadmap, we've updated this idea to Accepted, so that it’s up for formal consideration.
We're grateful for your continued input as it helps us understand what matters.
