Hi everyone, thanks for your feedback and for sharing your experiences with leave requests for employees who work non-standard hours.
Later this year, we plan to release the first stage of Working Patterns in AU Payroll.
This will allow users 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.
This initial release will establish the foundation for supporting a broader range of working patterns in the future, including more complex or changing schedules.
We’re moving this idea to Accepted while we explore how leave requests could work for these employees. Please continue sharing your specific scenarios, as they’ll help inform how we develop this functionality.

This was raised in 2019 (https://central.xero.com/s/question/0D53m00005Wa8sWCAR/payroll-staff-working-patterns), this is a critical function that should be in accounting software.

Hi everyone, thanks for sharing this idea with us! We appreciate you taking the time to explain how being able to mark multiple invoices as sent could help when invoices are shared outside Xero.
We’re opening this idea for community votes and comments so we can better understand how many customers would find this useful and the different ways it could support their workflows. If this would help you, please add your vote and share more about how you’d use it—your input helps our teams understand the broader need and impact. We’ll continue to monitor the feedback and post any updates here. Thanks again for helping us improve Xero 💙

Hi Brett, separate actions in them self but it is possible to Approve multiple invoices at once from the Draft tab. When actioned you'll see a message from which you can 'View invoices' and multi select to Email.
Being open this isn't something we have plans for right now - Is there a common scenario, or specific reason you'd like these actions as one? It'd be good detail to share back with the team.

We import all our invoices to Xero from our practice management software. They are imported as draft invoices. Once the invoices are in Xero I have to go through each invoice and complete the following steps otherwise Xero won't send reminders for overdue invoices.
- Set the date to today (which also sets the due date)
- Set the invoice to approved
- Set the invoice sentA solution to this would be to be able to select all draft invoices and bulk set them to approved and sent. This must be an issue for others.

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.

Account Transactions: Receipts - Send automated 'payment received' e-mail when payment is reconciled
562 votesHi everyone, we totally get how automating the sending of receipts when a transaction is reconciled would free up time and the manual task involved in this activity.
Though not in the pipeline at present, this is a feature our product team would like to explore more in the future.
We’ll be sure to update you all again when we are able to look into this deeper. Thanks

This appears to be another basic feature that is requested by Xero users the Xero team ignores, raised 8 years ago and no action. The complexities mentioned by Xero are easily resolved, and even if they are not from a technical perspective just adding an email receipt on reconcile option tick box would be a workaround that would stop the frustration by users.
For Xero users maybe voting with your feet my get better results.

Hi guys, great to hear this is happening. I agree with the comments below; we have a couple of team members on 9-day fortnights, and we do pay run on a fortnightly basis.
