    Not in pipeline  ·  AdminKelly Munro (Community Manager, Xero) responded

    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.

    Agreed, Employees should not be able to approve/cancel their own leave.

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

    Hey everyone, as a first off we'd like to say a big thank you to everyone that filled in their details and engaged with our teams research in this space.

    I'm pleased to return with a further update for you all.

    We have been developing the capability fir employees to self onboard to Xero Payroll. Our feature would enable employees to enter their own onboarding details via a secure web form. Giving payroll admins back more time to focus on more important tasks.

    We want to be upfront that the intention is to release this in the Australian version of Xero Payroll first, with NZ and UK to follow. We will keep you up to date of the release here. 😊

    I am loving Xero. However, I am also very disappointed after transitioning from MYOB to find out XERO do not have this basic function. :(
    Come on guys!
