AU Payroll | Timesheet - Ability to add allowances
When operating tracking income and expenses in two areas, payroll allows for the primary tracking category when setting up the employee and the time sheet allows the secondary tracking option to be selected.
Currently the timesheet option only allows for the 'hours worked' to be allocated to the secondary tracking option. Any allowance can only be added at the pay run which means it cannot be added to the secondary tracking category.
Can we have the ability to add allowances as an option in the timesheet?

being able to track allowances through payroll is critical for us. This is already offered in MYOB which we just transferred from.

Can we PLEASE have the ability to have allowances that use the total hours worked off the timesheets, automatically take the total hours worked and add that quantity into the payrun quantity for the allowances? Because of the STP change we have to enter the hours on every allowance manually and a lot of staff have more than one allowance. 32 staff with 4 allowances each is a lot of extra manual entry after we have just manually entered the timesheets :(

Not just required for mileage, but also other allowance types: laundry, broken shift, meals etc!

This would be a great feature and save emailing back & forth with employees!

Yes please! I work for two companies, one needs this for travel and the other needs it for meal allowances. Please make it happen ASAP!

This is extremely critical for us. We have to pay staff according to km travelled and with no way to record this against timesheets we have to manually enter this information on payslips allowing for errors in overpayments and underpayments

It is extremely important to allow Fixed Rate allowances to Timesheets. Work around solutions we have implemented has too much room for error

this would be extremely useful to be able to include daily allowances that we pay for overseas travel

Can employees please be able to enter their travel kilometres per day just like they add their hours per day on their timesheets as it is very frustrating requesting employees to email or text km's to manually add to their payslip.

How many votes do we need to get these changes made?!!

Jackie McGregor commented
really need to be able to enter travel into timesheet. This has to be done manually and really does not work

A new issue which has arisen through STP phase 2 is when the employee enters a timesheet it removes the travel allowance which is entered into the pay template.
Is there away we can keep this template travel allowance when the employee is entering a timesheet? -
Samantha Devers commented
Just taken on a payroll client where we need to approve timesheet hours and then manually update the payslip with kms travelled. This would be a good feature to have.

Daniel Kelly commented
Have a client with over 100 employees and for each we have to manually edit the payslips. Desperately need this, huge time suck at present.

Scott Leonard commented
We already have this feature. Xero chose to remove it as part of the never-ending transition to STP2.

Kerin Jarvis commented
This would be fantastic! Allowing staff to enter km per hour, or nights away, or meals away would save a lot of manual entry.

Ben Swan commented
Being able to have employees record KM's travelled with their time sheet will save a lot of time and headaches when processing payroll

We need allowances as a drop down on timesheets. We used to be able to work around it but now with STP Phase 2 this is no longer available.
Please make allowances an option so staff can enter their own kms used etc.
