    Not in pipeline  ·  AdminDavid Reynolds (Admin, Xero) responded

    Hi everyone, thanks for sharing your feedback on flexible pay periods. We appreciate you explaining how important this is, especially for those running 4-4-5 week structures.

    The product team have reviewed this idea and, after looking into what would be involved, have confirmed it isn’t something we’re planning to add to Payroll in the foreseeable future.

    We’ve updated the status to Not in pipeline. While we’re not moving ahead with this work, your feedback is still really valuable and helps us understand the different ways you’re running payroll in your business.

    Looking at all the comments, it appears that this is a common issue that we are having to deal with.
    To process our payroll we need to be able to change the pay period to accommodate 4 and 5 week pay periods.
    We moved over to Xero so that we could import our timesheets directly onto Xero but have been unable to do this because of the set pay periods.
    Please could this be sorted ASAP.

    We need the option to change the pay period to accomodate 4 and 5 week pay periods. Currently Xero does not give this option - there are just set pay periods which just doesnt fit in with our payroll.

    We have the same issue.
    It would be very useful to be able to change the pay period to accommodate 4 and 5 week pay periods.
    At the very least, to be able to take off the pay period on the payslip so that it just shows the month number rather than the dates.

    In development  ·  AdminKelly Munro (Community Manager, Xero) responded

    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.

    It would be extremely useful if the Approver received notifications when items are awaiting approval.
    Much time would be saved if this was done automatically, making the process more efficient and streamlined.

    Having an automatic notification sent to the approver when Purchase Orders have been raised would save so much time and would avoid the need for manual emails to be sent. Would be great if this could be set up asap.
