Hi everyone, thanks for your feedback on this idea. We appreciate you sharing how important accurate leave accruals are for managing payroll when employees work at different rates across various days or departments.
While we aren't able to add this to our roadmap right now, we want to make sure you are aware that it is currently possible to set up leave to accrue on more than one earnings rate.
As mentioned in this thread, the key is to set the Rate Type for these additional items to "Multiple of Employee's Ordinary Earnings Rate".
Please refer to our support article Set up overtime or earnings that accrue leave for a guide on how to do this. We'll keep this thread active for future feedback.

It would be ideal if you could opt to accrue leave on fixed rate earnings that are in addition to Ordinary Earnings pay items such as Saturday, Sunday, Night Shift and Afternoon Shift pay items. We have a client that imports timesheets from their main software and require payroll items to be set up as 'rate per unit' for it to successfully integrate with Xero. However, we have now run in to the issue of having to complete a manual calculation for leave accruals for permanent employees who work regular shifts on Saturdays, Sundays etc Xero does not allow you to select leave accruals on other fixed rate earnings payroll items only multiples of ordinary earnings. Seems simple enough to set up for the multiple, that I don't see why it should not be an option for fixed rate payroll items. With the client newly coming to Xero it was a bit of shock, especially because they are on such a large subscription.
