    I have put in place an interim solution where I use the "Type of Units (e.g. Hours)" in the Earnings Rate Set Up to be a consistent (eg. CAS.MULTI<12M)
    This field seems to be the one that bunches the Earning Rates together in the timesheets
    So I have all related other rates, for that Classification quoting the name "CAS.MULTI<12M" Type of Units and have updated the Earnings/Display Name to include "per hour" instead
    As long as you have the employee set up with one of the rates of the same Type of Units, then all related pay rate options will appear in their timesheets
    Means there are some duplicated rates if paid the same across all classifications, but they are distinguished by the Type of Units field, so it flows through to the relevant timesheet of the employee of that classification
    Screen shot of the Earnings Rate and timesheet examples attached that this has worked for

    Thanks Sarah - I totally back this
    I can't figure out how Xero is deciding which pay rates the staff can access either, as they can only randomly select some, not all
    Casuals can even select Part Time rates, which completely baffles me
    Would be much more logical to either:
    1. allocate all relevant pay rates to each employee in their profile
    2. restrict at group level (eg Casual Level 4) which employees access what rates
