I agree it would be great if approved Expense claims auto-populated draft Payslips like approved leave requests do. I understand this would need to be a configurable option, as some businesses use methods other than payroll to reimburse employees.

If auto-populate is not feasible, then at least have approved claims visible/accessible from the "add reimbursement" button.

Then if that's not possible, how about a warning at the top of the payslip that there are un-paid (or un-approved) expense claims for this employee, the same way there is a warning when they have un-approved leave requests.

It's crazy that this isn't the default.

Yes, I would love this! This would be similar to the timesheets feature on Xero Me where hours are auto transfered to payslips once approved.

It'd be great if a feature can exist where employees add kilometre claims per pay cycle, like they do with their timesheets to be approved and ensure ease of use for both the employee and the employer, streamlining this would be great!

Currently, my staff have to email me separately each week with their total kms to claim, and it has to be manually inserted into each individual payslip.

This is such a logical idea, I don't know why it isn't already part of the standard functionality. The current process is clunky and time-consuming.

If an employee has had their expenses approved for payment, could you automatically create a line item in their next pay run for the reimbursement of that expense?

Why have they not done this already ???

Agreed. Needs to be improved

This is a sensible and simple integration that would save employer's time.

Yes please! I'm amazed this isn't set up already!

This would be a great addition! Being able to choose approved expenses submitted by an employee when clicking the Reimbursement button in a pay run would be a fantastic enhancement to the workflow.

Totally agree. It also needs the ability to report spend with the actual supplier, so we know where all the money is going. See my Xero request:

Half finished idea is right - sometimes it's like Xero builds half a bridge when you expected a full bridge, so you have to do just as much manual work as if the feature wasn't there.

Currently to reimburse employees for expenses you have to add them manually to each pay run for each employee, it would make sense for expenses that have been added using the expenses function to auto add to payroll each month to reduce work and to allow staff to be reimbursed quicker. this would also make the expenses function more worthwhile for the cost.

This would reduce stress for staff putting on employees as expenses that have been approved will automatically be added and marked as paid.

Completely agree, another half finished idea, all the data has been collected, should be able to click a button and at directly to their payslip or auto add if the expenses have already been approved
