    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 discovery  ·  AdminKelly Munro (Community Manager, Xero) responded

    Hi everyone, we're doing some research on managing employees, particularly looking at our customer's experiences onboarding new hires and setting them up in payroll.

    We'd love to get input from our community here that we know have a vested interest, and we'd really appreciate your time.

    If you'd like to take part, we're looking to schedule sessions that'll be about 60 minutes via a video call.

    You can apply using the link here - It just takes a few minutes to fill in and your answers are confidential. I'll be sure to share any updates or progress that comes from this work with everyone here. Thanks!

    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!
