    Hi everyone, thanks for sharing how important it is for your business to have monthly salaried employees complete timesheets for tracking and reporting purposes, without impacting pay run calculations.

    Some of you have found workarounds like approving timesheets after processing pay runs, although this may create challenges down the line.

    Our product team is currently undertaking a wider review of timesheets, and this idea will be included in that process. Therefore we're updating this idea to Accepted. We'll keep you updated if there are any developments on this.

    This would be great. We are obligated to keep time records for our employees but cant seem to do this on Xero because the timesheet interacts with the pay run. I have tried just leaving the timesheet in draft and processing the pay run but ive read that down the track this can create issues if you need to change the pay period for an employee as you would need to delete all the draft timesheets. Im not sure if you can approve the timesheet after filing the payrun though?

    Hi everyone, thanks for your feedback on having approved timesheets not override the pay template.

    We appreciate you sharing how important this is for your payroll processes, to avoid manual payslip corrections.

    Some members have shared alternative processes, such as keeping the timesheets in 'Draft' until after the pay run is posted.

    We are moving this idea to Accepted to include it in a wider review of timesheets currently being scoped by our product team. Please note, this status does not confirm a timeline for development. We will update you here on any developments.

    Thanks for your support and joining in this idea. We get the challenges involved in manually chasing up employees to complete timesheets each pay period.

    Although it's not the integrated solution you’re looking for, you could look to set up recurring calendar events or using external communication tools to prompt your team members.

    We want to be transparent that we don't have any plans for adjusting the existing notifications for timesheets.

    We'll continue to monitor this idea, and should our priorities shift in the future we'll let everyone know here.

    This is a really basic and essential feature to add. I dont know why its not already in built! It would reduce time wasted chasing up staff who havent submitted their timesheets in time for the pay run to occur. Ideally the system would only send reminders / push notifications / email when an employee has not yet submitted their timesheets by the end of their allocated payrun period.

    This would seem like pretty basic feature which would assist both payroll and employees in getting pay done efficiently and on time.

    Hi everyone, thanks for your suggestions regarding consolidating the information provided in the current leave reports and the suggestion to include a running leave balance.

    We appreciate that the current leave reports in Xero require exporting out of Xero and manual work to track running balances. We hear that this can add time to your workflows.

    After reviewing this idea, we're updating this idea to Not in Pipeline. Whilst we can see the value to you for this particular report configuration, this isn’t an idea that’s on our product teams foreseeable roadmap.

    We know this isn't the outcome you hoped for, and we value your input as it helps us understand what matters to the community. The idea remains open for votes so we can continue gauging interest. We’re constantly reviewing the level of support for your ideas, so will keep you updated if the status changes in the future.

    Hi everyone, appreciate the feedback on the idea here. Being open we don't have any immediate work planned for this.

    However, I also wanted to highlight with differing needs and regulation our payroll products are developed separately for region specifically. We try to keep the ideas regionally separated in community here as it helps when feeding back to the team and also in keeping customers updated.

    That said we have a separate idea for this similar feature in AU Payroll and I've added any voters from AU to that idea to keep updated there.

    Hi everyone, thanks for your feedback on automating leave provisions. Currently Xero does not automatically include leave liabilities on the Balance Sheet. Some of you have mentioned workarounds such as reviewing the Leave Balances Report and creating Manual Journals to include the liability in your reporting.

    While we’re dedicated to streamlining payroll calculations, our product team confirmed this specific idea isn't on our foreseeable roadmap. We’ll be updating the status to Not in pipeline. The idea will remain open for votes so we can continue to monitor community interest.

    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!

    Hi everyone, thanks for getting behind this idea and sharing the need for employees to add multiple earnings rates to Start and End timesheets.

    Your examples demonstrate how different earnings rates in a single timesheet would save time and improve payroll accuracy for industries with varied awards.

    We understand many of you are currently editing timesheets after employees submit them, which adds extra steps.

    The good news is that idea is now in discovery. Our product team is currently reviewing the viability of this idea and exploring what a solution could look like.

    We will post an update here as soon as we have more news.

    Hey everyone, thanks for all your feedback on displaying leave balances in days on payslips. We recognise that many of you are keen to see this feature.

    Our product team has reviewed this suggestion. While we understand the value it'd bring, it isn't on our foreseeable roadmap. As a result, we're updating the status of this idea to 'Not in Pipeline'.

    We're keeping this idea open for votes to help us gauge its popularity when we next review our payroll priorities. We appreciate you taking the time to share your thoughts with us.🙂

    Hey Community, thanks for all the support shown for this idea. We understand that the core of this request is for business owners and payroll admins to be able to view, edit and complete draft timesheets.

    Our product teams have carefully considered this, however we want to be upfront that developing this capability isn't on our foreseeable roadmap at this time.

    The idea will remain open for votes so we can continue to gauge interest, as it will be important for when we next review our payroll priorities. Thanks again for sharing with us here, we really do value your input.
