The ability to have a changeable flag on fixed assets to indicate their being at cost or valuation would be good also.

This is important also for when grants are received for fixed asset purchases

Hey team, 👋 "Can I take this holiday?" - Now, we know this is one of the most common questions employees ask, and it's one we'd like to be able to help you solve with Xero Payroll.
We'd love your help in shaping the future of Leave projections in Xero - As a start, please share any detail about;
- What information you normally need for calculating future leave balances currently?
- What would you need to see or understand to trust that the projected balance is accurate?
We're also looking to set up a research session to dive deeper into your current process and explore options wth us - If you'd be willing to give some time, take a few minutes to fill in our survey📝 and we'll be in touch in the coming days. Thanks!

I have raised this before. It wastes so much time having to manually calculate future leave availability so you can approve leave applications.
This is especially tedious at Christmas, when our office closes for three weeks. Adding in public holidays and consideration of the rosters of part-time staff who work only some days of the week, a lot of time is wasted and accuracy risked.

Currently a lot of manual calcs are required to pay an employee in advance eg before Christmas shutdown or to calc if employee has enough leave before approving leave

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.

It would also be good to be able to store the work days / hours per day roster, which would help with this.
Each part time person has to be adjusted when there's a public holidayAn error occurred while saving the comment Lyn Birnie, Treasurer

Even a simple hours per standard shift would help. If an employee doesn't work a full week, eg when there's a public holiday, hours for every pay type for every employee have to be adjusted

Please amend draft pay functionality for public holidays when using timesheets.
When there's a public holiday, I currently have to go through every employee's draft pay and add the public holiday hours. Before I used timesheets, the public holiday line on draft pays was populated with hours; now it's zero. For a large payroll that included some people not entitled to public holidays, it would be a lot of work and an accuracy risk to have to manually adjust every employee's draft pay. Will you ask the system designers to amend this as soon as possible, pls? Thank youLyn Birnie, Treasurer

Hi there, we appreciate you raised this a little while ago. This isn't something we have plans for in the near term.
Not getting a lot of support from other members we’ll soon remove this from Product ideas. If it’s still highly valuable to you, welcome to start it again and see if it gets renewed interest.

Agree re second element which could be negative eg for grant offsets
