    Thanks for your engagement with this idea to allow setting specific working days for part-time employees in AU Payroll. We understand wanting to handle these common working arrangements smoothly and accurately.

    We know this is a key area for improvement and we'd like to look into this deeper in the long term, however it’s not in our roadmap just yet.

    Right now you'll need to manually adjust leave requests.

    We'll be sure to provide another update as we move forward with our investigations.

    This is so disappointing to read David. The feature is live in other Xero regions. Given the past two weeks of instability in the Australian environment surely it is time to give us some of these important features we so desperately need.

    Hey everyone 👋 Thanks so much for all the detailed feedback on applying work patterns for part-time employees. We’ve been following the conversation and understand that manually adjusting pay runs for pro-rata entitlements can be a real challenge. It’s clear that having this automated could save time and give you greater peace of mind.

    I’m pleased to let you know our product team has reviewed this idea and we’re updating the status to ‘Accepted’. This means that while it’s not on our immediate roadmap, it’s something we see real value in and want to bring into Xero when we can prioritise the work.

    In the meantime, the workarounds shared here, like manually adjusting hours in each pay run, remain the best approach. We really appreciate you taking the time to share your thoughts, as your feedback plays a crucial role in shaping Xero. We’ll keep you updated on any developments…

    This was nearly a year ago Kelly and it is a product that has already shipped to the UK and NZ. Why the continual delay for Australian customers. Every forum I read complains about this as a pain point with Xero payroll, often leaving your customers to seek other solutions.
