    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.

    If employees are set up with 'Fixed Amount per Period' the daily hours in each leave request are calculated using the hours field from their Pay Template instead, then divided by the working days in their pay period. When employees are on a monthly salary, this can cause a fluctuation, as you have found.

    Currently, it's not possible to set a specific number of daily hours in a leave request for employees.

    This needs to be fixed ASAP - I cannot believe that all Companies that pay there employees Monthly are not jumping up and down - else they are looking at other solutions???
