UK Payroll - Change holiday to hours
When booking more than one days holiday Xero does not allow you to edit the hours taken. Xero assumes everyone works a 5 day week. So if a part time employee who works 5 hours a day 3 days a week totalling 15 hours books two days holiday Xero assumes they will be taking just 6 hours when it should be 10. There is not an option to amend the hours taken like there is if you just book 1 day.

Hi community, with the recent change in UK Payroll to introduce working pattern templates so now you can now create default work schedules for employees, ensuring their pay and leave are calculated correctly. You can have up to 100 templates with up to 13 weeks of entries.
Working patterns provide visibility around earnings rate calculations and will eliminate the need to amend miscalculations manually.
We appreciate your interest in this here. Thanks

We are in hospitality and are open 7 days a week. Xero only recognises working hours as Monday to Friday. When an employee who works Tuesday to Saturday books a holiday, I have to adjust the hours as we cannot set their working pattern. Sage has this available over a four week period to accommodate for a shift pattern.
Please Xero can you allocate a shift pattern for each employee and not just on Sick leave.

Our staff works different hours during the week. Friday is shorter. There is currently no way of amending individual days to enable amendment for holidays. Everything needs to be adjusted manually which causes errors.
