    Hi everyone, thank you for sharing your thoughts and voting on this idea. While we recognise that an import tool for leave requests would be helpful, building a traditional import feature is unlikely to be something we develop in the near future.

    However, as we continue to expand and develop AI capabilities across Xero, exploring ways to streamline and automate data entry, like leave requests, is something we may look into down the line.

    We appreciate your patience and input here as we work to make Xero smarter and more efficient. We’ll be sure to update this thread if plans progress in this space!

    Adding to this comment. Would like to be able to import a spreadsheet that lists:

    Employee Name
    Leave Type
    Leave Start Date
    Leave End Date
    Number of Hours

    In our business we need to create 26 RDO Leave Requests, in advance, for each of our client's 10 employees - in line with the ETU award.

    Cheers,
    Alex Scott

    Thanks for the great discussion and all the votes on this idea. We know that without the ability to set specific leave approvers, it can be harder to keep governance clear, avoid self-approval and ensure requests go to the right person.

    While we’re not planning to develop dedicated approval workflows in the near term, we want to share a tip that many have found useful. You can help streamline the process by guiding employees to select their direct manager from the approver list. While all payroll admins and leave approvers are listed, this step helps make sure requests reach the right person and keeps oversight clear.

    Your feedback here is incredibly valuable for future planning and we’ll continue to keep an eye on this idea’s traction. We’ll keep it open for voting and will share any updates if plans change down the track.
