    Thanks everyone. We appreciate the thinking behind wanting to restrict which earnings rates employees can choose when they fill out a timesheet.

    Since this idea was first raised we’ve made a small update - You can now assign earnings rates to employees and these'll appear first in the Xero Me app when an employee enters a timesheet. Just a heads-up that any other earnings rates will still show underneath and can still be selected.

    As we continue to develop Xero Payroll in Australia this is something our product team have been keeping a close eye on. We’re planning work that’d let employees select only the earnings types in their Pay Template or the default rate from their employee record.

    When this work moves forward I’ll come back here and share an update with you all. 🙂

    I've only just discovered this is happening too. I naturally assumed the employee only saw the rate attached to them. There would be privacy issues around this surely. To have multiple generic options of eg "ordinary time" leads to all sorts of issues - employees could select the incorrect one, would have to manually keep double-checking the correct rate has come through if an error slipped through to a processed pay it would be a nightmare to fix Surely there is a way by permission to only see the rate applicable to them - I agree @Xero please fix urgently -- I'm from NZ so needs to reflect here too :-)
