NZ Payroll - Option to show Holiday Pay accrual as hour value
Payroll>Employees>Leave currently has leave balances in days and dollar values, this makes it difficult to determine what the amount should be either way.
As the dollar amount may change due to pay rises or an average applied as per statutory legislation, it would be better if all fields were hours based values. This would make it consistent and easier as a consumer to use.
As a user, I should not have to be trying to calculate what the values should be and if something doesn't appear to be right, I should not need to contact Xero to find out how they have calculated a field.

Hi team, we've recently released changes in Xero Payroll. As you may have seen you can now set up working patterns for employees to more accurately calculate employees wages and leave. While Holiday pay remains in dollars, Annual Leave will show in weeks and FBAPS Leave will now be shown in days.
Just to note, Holiday Pay is not a one to one correlation to Annual Leave, however if you prefer to have leave in hours you could consider enabling leave in advance. You can see our article here for more information on managing employees leave.
We appreciate your interest and sharing with us through Xero Product Ideas.

The Payroll Leave Balances report displays so odd totals - it shows annual leave in hours, and holiday pay in dollars, and adds the two numbers together to display hour dollars, or dollar hours - a nonsense number. I would suggest to remove the total as it is erroneous number, and add the units of measure to each line, like (hours) & ($) which would make the report read correctly.
