    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.

    In development  ·  AdminKelly Munro (Community Manager, Xero) responded

    Thanks for continuing to explain how the current all or nothing Payroll Admin access affects your teams. We’re now developing more granular payroll permissions, starting with separate View, Edit and Approve Timesheets access so timesheet tasks can be delegated without exposing the wider payroll area.

    While the current work is focused on Timesheets access directly we recognise there are other sensitive areas within payroll that you'd like more incremental access to and we'll continue to consider these as our development of permissions evolves.

    I'll come back to share when these Timesheets options are live!

    It would be really helpful if there could be more separation in user permissions.
    We have an Admin Team that has the authority to approve leave in our office but does not have the authority to complete other payroll activities - pay runs, view/change pay templates, etc.
    Currently Xero does not allow for this separation in permissions so we cannot have this setup correctly in our office
