AU Payroll | Timesheets - Ability to Import Timesheet templates from excel

Could we have the ability to update timesheets each payrun from and excel spreadsheet.
This is so that admin staff can data enter timesheet information without necessarily having access to the payroll system. This is also in the case of Company's who do not want the Xero Me function.

Hi everyone, thanks for all of your support on this idea.

We've been following your comments and recognise that having a streamlined way to get timesheets from a spreadsheet into Xero Payroll would be a huge time saver.

As noted by others in this thread, one option is to explore some of the connected time-tracking apps in the Xero App Store. While we know this isn't a perfect substitute for a direct import feature, it may help bridge the gap in the meantime.

The good news is that we see the value this feature would provide and we want to explore it further. We'll change the status of this idea to Accepted.

We appreciate your patience, we’ll provide any further updates right here.

    Hi, I would like to request Xero to update the product team to prepare an excel time sheet template that we could automatically upload into the time sheeting function. We have a client and we have to do the payroll every week. The payroll process is that we have to prepare an excel from their time sheet to calculate the hours and then have to enter the total hours in Xero to process their pay. If Xero could come up with a template of time sheet suitable for Xero then we can upload the times heet straight to Xero and Xero will do the hours calculation.

    Desperately need to import external pay run information e.g. hours, earnings rates, into Xero in either the Timesheets function or directly into the pay run.

    We use an ERP system and today need to manually enter all payroll times by employee. Not really acceptable for payroll!
