    Thanks for your feedback about setting working days for part-time employees, everyone.

    We’re pleased to share that working patterns are now in development, with the first release planned for later this year.

    You’ll be able to set a one-week work pattern for each employee, which will automatically be used for leave and public holiday calculations in the pay run. For this first release, you’ll still need to update the employee’s pay template separately to reflect their standard working hours.

    We plan to build on this by connecting working patterns with standard hours in the pay run and supporting a broader range of working patterns. We’ll share another update as the release gets closer.

    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.

    Hi everyone, thanks for your continued feedback about managing working patterns for part-time employees.

    We’re pleased to share that we plan to begin rolling out working patterns in AU Payroll later this year.

    The first release will allow you to set a one-week work pattern for each employee. This pattern will automatically be used for leave and public holiday calculations in the pay run. At this stage, you’ll still need to update the employee’s pay template separately to reflect their standard working hours.

    We plan to build on this foundation by connecting working patterns with standard hours in the pay run and supporting a broader range of working patterns. We’ll share more details as the first release gets closer.

    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.
