AU Payroll - Option to 'Approve & Next' employee
In Payroll --> Timesheet --> entering hours for employees, there is no option to 'Approve & Next' employee, which would make entering hours easier. It would mean one doesn't have to keep going back to the main Timesheet menu when they are working through a roster of staff.

Also needs to be updated for NZ Payroll. If there is a "save & next" option, this would also enable the time taken to approve timesheets to be reduced significantly, when approving the timesheets in a week AFTER the timesheets are related to. We process payroll weekly, on the Monday for the week prior ending on Sunday. At the moment to save time processing payroll, I need to approve the timesheets on Sunday night after we close business. If I approve timesheets on Monday, then I need to add the additional steps of scrolling down to the "View More" tab at the bottom of the screen, to bring up the previous weeks timesheets. This needs to be done for every staff member seeing as there is no automatic progression available to the next staff timesheet. Probably the most frustrating and clunky feature of Xero Payroll - so timewasting and inefficient with a simple fix that is already offered in other aspects of the software.

When editing an employee's payslip within the payrun, options at the bottom of the screen include "save", "save & next", "close". Suggest :
1. Firstly, a button that allows you to easily navigate to the previous employee.
2. Default to save - for example, the buttons would be "previous employee", "next employee", "close". Each button would automatically save. The "close" button would return to the main payrun screen while still saving the payslip details. The option to close without saving is not necessary as there is a "reset payslip" button.
3. Move the buttons suggested in option 2 up to the top of the screen.
