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.

Xero, this request has been going on for 9 months in this thread, and I also know there are other threads on the same topic. Please listen to the requests of your subscribers, and focus on delivering something that is pretty fundamental and critical to some many. This isn't about something looking good, or a minor tweak, it significantly impacts our work/businesses.

This has been requested by so many people in different threads - it's a really fundamental function, that Xero needs to address. It affects annual leave requests and public holidays, and is very time consuming having to do it manually for all staff.

Fully agree with these comments. Xero calculates the leave accruals pro-rata, but then when employees submit leave requests, it pro-ratas the request by the hours in a leave request is calculated by the number of hours in a full pay period, divided by the number of business days in the pay period. For example, 38 hours in a week, divided by 5 working days. But all my part time employees work full days and have non-working days, so it needs to reflect 7.6 hours per day of leave requested - we shouldn't have to manually over-ride this every time. An easy option would be to set up a standard roster per employee, and it calculates the leave request based on that.

Hi everyone, thanks for continuing to raise your needs in proforma invoicing with us here.
Atm, deposits can only be taken against approved invoices(powered by Stripe), and taking payment against quotes or draft invoices isn’t supported at this point.
We understand that pre-invoice and proforma-style workflows matter for some businesses, especially where payment needs to be secured before the final invoice is raised.
Earlier-stage deposit workflows is something we’re considering for the direction in this space, and we’ll share more here if that progresses further.

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.

We need to be able to breakdown all income and expenditure associated with a tracking category, which is how we manage individual projects - a combined Profit and Loss, with an Account Transactions Report. This seems to be a common request, that doesn't seem overly onerous from a Xero perspective, that is very time consuming for an end user
