    Hey everyone, we thank you for the detailed feedback on improving how leave requests work for part-time employees in Australian payroll. 

    We understand the value of shifting the task of adjusting hours to employees, freeing up payroll administrators’ time for other priorities and we also appreciate the points raised around accuracy and compliance.

    While we don’t have current plans to deliver exactly what’s been suggested here, our product team is continuing to focus on developing working patterns within AU Payroll. Based on what we’ve seen in other regions, this'll likely address many of the needs discussed here.

    We’ll move this idea to Not in pipeline for now, but we’ll keep you posted on any updates that could help achieve what’s being asked.

    For businesses using monthly payroll Xero is auto generating strange hours for leave days, sometimes this is 7.1429 hours. The staff work 7.5 hour days.
    Please add a field where we can enter the correct default work hours rather than making us edit every single leave application to adjust to the correct hours.

    I need to be able to set a number of pays for recurring payroll deductions.
    For example; my employee buys a laptop under salary sacrifice and wants to pay it back over a specified number of pay cycles.
    At the moment I need to track this manually to ensure that the deduction is removed at the right time. It would be great if the software could do this for me.

    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.

    Hi everyone, we're looking into this idea as part of research our teams are doing on managing employees, particularly looking at our customer's experiences onboarding new hires and setting them up in payroll.

    Knowing the interest from our community in this here, we wanted to share an opportunity to get involved.

    If you'd be willing to take part, our teams will be scheduling sessions which will be about 60 minutes via video call.

    You can share your interest by taking a few minutes to fill in this form ✍️ - We really appreciate your time.

    Thanks, and I'll make sure to share any outcomes from this discovery back with you all here.

    Hi community, thanks for the strong support in being able to attach files within Xero Payroll, both for employee records and pay runs. We really appreciate you sharing the value and efficiency this could create for you when working with Xero. It's evident that being able to store important documents like licenses, sick notes, and onboarding papers directly in Xero would remove the need for external storing systems or manual processes.

    We acknowledge it's not the end goal but wanted to highlight the use of apps, as some have shared like Dext, to help bridge this gap in the meantime.

    I want to assure you that enabling attachments in payroll is part of our long-term intentions. However, to deliver this functionality effectively and reliably, we first need to develop some foundational elements within our payroll platform.

    We understand your frustration with the timeline and the limited updates, and we're…
