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.

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.

Hi everyone, thank you for your continued support and for sharing how valuable it is to keep employee documents in one place within Xero Payroll.
We’re pleased to share that this feature is now rolling out in Xero Payroll for all AU customers.
We'll be allowing Payroll Admins to upload files directly to an employee profile, securely store them against the relevant employee, and organise them into folders. They’ll also be able to view, rename, move, sort and delete files, with access restricted to Payroll Admins.
Expanding the feature to NZ and the UK isn’t on the roadmap just yet, but it’s something we’ll continue to consider as part of longer-term improvements. We’ve created separate ideas for these regions and added relevant voters from the idea here.
We’ll return to share another update once the Australian release is…

Thanks for the great discussions here, just wanted to touch base to let you know we’re listening. The idea is still open and currently gathering support on Xero Product Ideas, so we don’t have a public timeframe to share right now. We’ll continue to keep a close eye on support here and update if anything changes.

Hi team, we appreciate the interest here especially with upcoming Payday Super. I'd like to share that notifications and prompts are being developed with some of the changes we're working on, and achieve what's being asked here.
I'll round back when this is live and confirm what these look like to help in your processing of Superannuation here.

Hi everyone, we’ve been following the conversation around how Xero calculates leave request hours for salaried employees. As you’ve mentioned, the current calculation based on the working days in a month isn't hitting the mark for everyone.
We understand some of you would prefer an alternative calculation method and are manually adjusting leave requests so they reflect the exact amount of hours in a day.
While this feature isn't currently on our roadmap, we see the logic in your request. We've shared this idea with the product team and moved it to Accepted. We’ll keep you posted right here if anything evolves.

Please fix this ASAP, its a basic function that should be calculating correctly. You should also be able to choose which days that a part-time employee works so that the leave calculates correctly if they take those days off and doesnt take anything off for days they wouldn't have been working anymore. This is critical to most businesses I'd say and saves a lot of manual adjustments (the last thing you want in payroll systems).
