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.

I cannot believe the XERO Development Team have not even considered this. Not all payroll admin should have access to approve leave or timesheets for all employees. We have our Accountants now annoyed that they are getting each and every Christmas holiday request, which is time consuming for them to have to delete.
The user access module needs to be updated to allow additional levels and requests per 'payroll admin' very similar to how the rest of the system works. Considering that payroll would be the most confidential part of the account, Xero has left this wide open to anyone with 'payroll access' not smart !!

Hi Community! Thanks for your active and on-going participation in this idea. The volume of comments and votes highlights how important more granular user permissions are for managing your payroll processes effectively.
Improving user permissions and providing greater control over sensitive data is a key area of focus for us. While we have no specific feature to announce today, your feedback is critical in shaping the future of this part of Xero.
Because of the clear need you've all highlighted and our desire to investigate this further, we're moving this idea's status to In Discovery.
During the discovery phase, our product team will be digging deeper into the core problems you’ve raised.
We appreciate your patience as we explore this. We'll be sure to update this thread when we have more to share. Thank you again for helping us understand what matters most to you.

We need to ensure this is review and sign, MYOB has this option and it informs clients to 'review' and 'sign'
Xero has 'Your Activity statement is ready', clients have no indication that they need to do anything, therefore, their BAS is not getting lodged on time without constant chasing up.
My Xero clients are asking NOT TO USE THIS SYSTEM becuase its confusing with the subject wording
