    Hi everyone, thanks for your continued feedback about managing working patterns for part-time employees.

    We’re pleased to share that we plan to begin rolling out working patterns in AU Payroll later this year.

    The first release will allow you to set a one-week work pattern for each employee. This pattern will automatically be used for leave and public holiday calculations in the pay run. At this stage, you’ll still need to update the employee’s pay template separately to reflect their standard working hours.

    We plan to build on this foundation by connecting working patterns with standard hours in the pay run and supporting a broader range of working patterns. We’ll share more details as the first release gets closer.

    Hi community, we appreciate the challenges manually chasing approvals can cause in the flow of processing your transactions.

    We’re pleased to share that we’re now actively working on a customisable bill approvals workflow to tackle this front on. As part of the flow an approver will receive an email when their approval step becomes active, and within Xero you’ll be able to see what needs attention.

    This means the person responsible can go straight to the bill, review it and approve or reject it without searching through the wider bills list. 🙂

    We recognise this work is limited to bills at present and there are users that'd also like to see these similar notifications on other document types. This is something we’ll continue to consider how we might leverage these notification patterns for other areas of Xero but don’t have commitments for as yet.

    Yep, we really need this. We just upgraded to add xero expenses and I can't believe it doesn't notify me when there is one to be approved!
