    Hi everyone, thanks for your feedback and votes on adding birthday notifications to Australian payroll - we understand how this could help with team celebrations and managing age-based award rate compliance.

    After reviewing with our product team, this feature isn't currently on our roadmap, and we'll update the status to 'Not in Pipeline'. Right now, setting up an external calendar could help you track these important dates.

    We appreciate you all taking the time to share your feedback with us, and will continue to watch the traction this idea receives through Votes. If there is any change, we will share an update here.

    Birthday, apprentice anniversaries and employee anniversaries reminder would be great. Email reminder or may be a pop up in Xero when processing payroll.

    Hi everyone, it’s been a while since our last update on this, so we wanted to share some progress.

    Our product team is currently working on a wider project to improve the timesheets experience. We're pleased to share that very soon, employees will only be able to select pay types that have been specifically added to their individual Pay Template when creating timesheets in Xero Me.

    This change is designed to reduce errors and ensure employees only see the earnings rates relevant to them.

    We’ll be sure to post another update here as soon as this is ready to roll out!

    The employee should only be able to select the pay rate assigned under their pay template, rather than any pay rate available. Please fix.

    Thanks for the great discussion and all the votes on this idea. We know that without the ability to set specific leave approvers, it can be harder to keep governance clear, avoid self-approval and ensure requests go to the right person.

    While we’re not planning to develop dedicated approval workflows in the near term, we want to share a tip that many have found useful. You can help streamline the process by guiding employees to select their direct manager from the approver list. While all payroll admins and leave approvers are listed, this step helps make sure requests reach the right person and keeps oversight clear.

    Your feedback here is incredibly valuable for future planning and we’ll continue to keep an eye on this idea’s traction. We’ll keep it open for voting and will share any updates if plans change down the track.

    Xero could enhance its platform by incorporating a feature that allows for selective delegation of leave request approval authority to designated Payroll Admins, without necessitating the removal of their broader Payroll Admin access privileges. Employees get confused when they see a long list of people from Accountants team in their leave approval section.

    Hey team, me again. Apologies, getting a little ahead of ourselves with the status of this idea.

    I can confirm that self onboarding of new employees is live for Xero Payroll in AU, however this feature does not extend to NZ organisations right now.

    This will be something we continue to consider as we keep developing Payroll for NZ and I'll share any further updates with you all here. Thanks

    Unusual for MYOB to be ahead of Xero in one aspect for a change
    Come on Xero, help Payroll admins out with an easy onboarding link in payroll
