  Now supporting Leave requests in Payroll exports:
  Workbench now supports exporting transactions on Timesheets that use a Payroll code that matches a Xero Leave Pay Item. Previously, only Earnings Pay Items were supported. This means that when a Payroll Batch is exported, based depending on the Workbench Payroll Code used in the Activity or Time Code, either a Timesheet or a Leave request will be created in Xero. Note that

  • Leave requests are

  unapproved (this is what Xero API allows only).

  This is a great enhancements for those Fortnightly Payroll runs in which in some cases one week was Time and another week was Leave and manual intervention was required to export this to Xero.
