Expose the Employee's Status in the Payroll API
The Employees endpoint in the NZ Payroll API returns all Employees of the Organisation. There is no way to distinguish between the "current" Employees and "old/former" Employees.
This means any UI showing the Employees includes everybody rather than just the current Employees. Where the user should only be selecting "current" Employees we should be able to provide them a drop down that is limited to the valid choices!
This is not currently possible because the API does not expose the status of the Employee.

Retrieve Pay Calendar end dates
Currently there is no way to determine the end date for a twice monthly calendar.
I can think of two solutions:
1. Expose the "calculatePeriods" function as an end point
2. Add EndDate to the result of the PayCalendars end point4 votes -
Add payslip messages to payslip POST API
Our app allows adding earnings lines for commissions to payslips. We would also like to add messages to the payslip at the same time (via the API) to indicate what each commission was for. Currently the payslip API doesn't allow this that I can find. So our clients have to cut and paste payslip messages from our app to the payslip in the Xero website, which is very cumbersome and error prone.

Filter PayRuns by calendarID and period start / end date
In Payroll NZ it is not possible to filter payruns by payroll calendar id or period start or end date whereas it is in payroll AU
GET https://api.xero.com/payroll.xro/2.0/payRuns
would be a big help to have this!3 votes -
Identify archived Payroll Calendars (AU)
There is no way to distinguish between archived and active Pay Calendars via the API.
An argument could be made for excluding them from this API call all together. At the very least there should be a way to tell if a Calendar is archived or not.

keypay
One of my clients moved to KeyPay integrated with Xero in February, as we have to pay over 200 employees per month.
I've just found out, because I ran an activity statement for March and it didn't show any W1 or W2, that the Xero API prevents KeyPay from posting wages and PAYG accordingly! Pretty useless, that! And I can't even run a report in Xero as it doesn't show in there either.
As I've just discovered this, it means I've also under-reported the February W1 and W2 to the ATO so I'll have to amend it. And run reports…

Webhooks for timesheets
It would be great to have webhooks for timesheets. Same for leave requests (requested by others).
This allows us to create a better experience by having to know if a timesheet has been marked as paid and etc and allowing us to prevent any further edits and etc. Additionally, you may have different personas that may edit directly on Xero itself so it would be important to receive those hooks when it happens.

AU: Add STP FILED status to PayRunStatus
For the PayRunStatus in GET PayRuns you show DRAFT and POSTED, it should also be possible to get FILED status so we can see if it's been filed for STP.

Include tax and filing information in US Payroll API
We are building some automated processes that help us process payroll approvals and provide tax information to a growing number of clients and it would be very useful to have access to the payroll taxes and filings information in Xero. In particular I would like to see the following information exposed in the US Payroll API:
1.) ALL pay run data that is included on the Xero web UI. Currently, benefits and employer taxes are not included in the API data, making it impossible for us to communicate the total cost of a payroll to an approving party.
2.) Taxes…

Terminating an Employee should be incorporated into a Wizard Function.
From review of the Xero's instructions there are several steps and places that you need to go just to terminate an employee. Surely this can be incorporated into a Wizard feature whereby you choose to terminate one or more selected employees and Xero takes you through the necessary steps to effectively and correctly terminate an employee/s.

Allow entry of a default or base hourly rate per employee
When feeding timesheets into Payroll, there is nowhere to specify an hourly rate for Ordinary Hours. The only way to get around this is to set up a default pay per employee that pays 0 hours at the required rate. It works, but is not very intuitive.

timesheets
Have an "Approve and Next" button for Timesheets, so that once you have approved a timesheet you don't have to click close and then click into the next persons timesheet, you would just click "Approve and Next" and it takes you to the next one. Saves time. Like when approving the Payslips, this option is there, but not in Timesheets.

Employees API Not Updating Timestamp
The Xero AU Payroll Employees API does not update or return the “last updated” timestamp when employee bank account or superannuation details are changed. Our HR system relies on this timestamp to detect updates, and without it, outdated data may overwrite correct information in Xero. This poses a risk of employee pay or super being sent to incorrect accounts.
Please review and update the API so these changes correctly trigger a timestamp update, ensuring accurate and reliable data sync between systems.

AU Timesheet approval process upgrade
- Give payroll admins the ability to move the status from "draft" to "pending approval" as is possible in NZ and UK or
- Give permissions to users with approval power to see the timesheet in the "draft" status through "Xero me" or
- Permit users with approval power to see the "timesheet" module in addition to "Xero me"
