Error

Type Feature Error Name
Sync error Employee file Unable to add Pay Template Earnings Line for Earnings Rate ID as this is auto generated by the application.

Explanation

This error occurs when an employee file in Xero does not have an ordinary earnings rate assigned to their pay template. When Employment Hero encounters this issue, it will not synchronise the affected employee file over to your Xero platform.

Solution

Adding an ordinary earnings rate to the employee's pay template within their Xero employee file and then re-syncing the two platforms will resolve this issue.

Resolving this error
  1. Log in to your Xero platform.
  2. Click on the Payroll button.
  3. Click the Employees button.
