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, I wanted to share another update regarding timesheet flexibility.
Our product team is currently working on a feature that will allow employees to add other unit-based earnings types directly to their timesheets via Xero Me. This means your team will soon be able to record allowances and other non-ordinary earnings pay items alongside their regular hours.
We know this has been a highly requested feature to help reduce manual adjustments for admins. We are currently in the development phase and will provide a further update here once we’re closer to a release date.

Thanks for your feedback about setting working days for part-time employees, everyone.
We’re pleased to share that working patterns are now in development, with the first release planned for later this year.
You’ll be able to set a one-week work pattern for each employee, which will automatically be used for leave and public holiday calculations in the pay run. For this first release, you’ll still need to update the employee’s pay template separately to reflect their standard working hours.
We plan to build on this by connecting working patterns with standard hours in the pay run and supporting a broader range of working patterns. We’ll share another update as the release gets closer.

This is frustrating, with large payroll we need to remember which employees work certain days for public holidays and leave requests do not calculate properly. This is a problem when the employees enter the leave requests through XeroMe as it will be incorrect

We use projects and automatic monthly invoices from Ignition which does not link to the project in Xero. This would save us so much time each month when allocating these invoices to projects and ensuring we have not missed any

Thanks to everyone who's shared how a second reference field on bills would support supplier invoice numbers, purchase orders and job references. We appreciate the strong appetite for this improvement and the practical examples provided.
Some groundwork has already been completed, and while this isn’t in our immediate pipeline, it's high on the teams radar and something we would like to pick up.
Though we can't commit to development just yet, we’ll keep you updated here of any progression.

We are working with Salesforce and need the PO number to sync bills across

Hey everyone, thanks for your feedback on having the ability to run a File Attachment report in Xero.
We know it's a bit of a manual process right now, but to confirm there are currently some places within Xero that'll help provide a view of the files attached to transactions, such as the account transactions page in the bank reconciliation screen, or the list pages like on Invoices or Bills.
Though we really appreciate you highlighting how this feature would be useful to you, we want to be transparent that we don't have any plans for building a report of this nature right now.
Though the idea has been updated to Not in pipeline it will remain open for votes. If there are any changes that change this state we'll make sure to share with you all, here.

It would be great to be able to run a report to send a client showing all expense items or purchases that do not have a supporting document attached. eg receipt or invoice

Hi everyone, thank you for your continued support and for sharing how valuable it is to keep employee documents in one place within Xero Payroll.
We’re pleased to share that this feature is now rolling out in Xero Payroll for all AU customers.
We'll be allowing Payroll Admins to upload files directly to an employee profile, securely store them against the relevant employee, and organise them into folders. They’ll also be able to view, rename, move, sort and delete files, with access restricted to Payroll Admins.
Expanding the feature to NZ and the UK isn’t on the roadmap just yet, but it’s something we’ll continue to consider as part of longer-term improvements. We’ve created separate ideas for these regions and added relevant voters from the idea here.
We’ll return to share another update once the Australian release is…

We have employees that have allowances for KM's and overnight, this would be so much easier if they could be added to the timesheet and part of the approval process
