AU Payroll - Automatically calculate pro-rata start and termination pay
New Employee start date is part way through a pay week. The New pay run does not recognise the start day and calculates an entire weeks pay.
This requires manual calculation and double check if the pay run has been recalculated. Open to errors and over payment

Have the "set as final pay" button automatically calculate the final pay without the need for any adjustments. If the employee did not work for the full pay period in their final pay, I don't think we should have to adjust the hours, Xero should calculate the hours using the termination date. If that means we need to enter each employee's regular working days and hours for Xero to determine this, then have a function that allows you to enter this information for each employee. I'm pretty sure many Xero users assume the final pay function is doing all this for them.

I always falsely believed that once "Start Date" is filled in, Xero (such an amazing software) calculates the pro-rated hours by default. Poor me!

In AU this is already sorted, why can't we have something similar in UK?

Currently if termination date falls in the middle of a pay cycle, the final pay run will not calculate the staff pay pro rata and therefore payroll admin has to manually update the payslip. Please include this feature so Xero constructs the payslip taking into consideration the termination date whilst still using the employee card details (rates, deductions etc etc).

Seems silly that the start date is not taken into account for the first pay run when the data is all entered on the employees profile.
