    I think I worked out how to fix this. Can someone check. Ticket should stay open so it is clear and easy to apply AND can be applied to groups or ALL employees.

    Xero AU Payroll - Monthly pay based on actual working days
    Setup:

    Payroll Settings > Pay Items > Ordinary Pay: set Rate Type to "Rate per unit", Units to "Hours"
    For each employee: Payroll > Employees > Pay Template > add Ordinary Pay earning line with hours = 38, the annual salary and Calculation Type "Annual Salary"

    Result on payslips:

    Hourly rate derived from annual salary (annual / 52 / 38)
    Hours vary each month based on actual working days
    Public holidays and sick leave tracked as separate lines at the same rate
    Total earnings reflect the real working days in each pay period

    This is a major compliance issue.

    Leave taken per day does not vary per month. This is a bug as not fit for purpose. to use the functionality would breach compliance
