    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.

    I am surprised, to say the least, to discover that Xero does not have this (seemingly) fundamental capability already in the product. We've just added our first part-time employee who will be working fixed days each week. I hope this does not become a manual reconciliation nightmare for our bookkeeper.
