Update leave categories from Xero to the HR classic platform

Available for the following HR plans: Premium, Platinum
Available for the following user access levels: Admin

A leave category enables employees to submit time off under specific predefined types. These categories help track the types of leave taken and the accrued balances, allowing your organisation to effectively manage and report on employee leave.

If you use Xero for your payroll, the Update Leave Categories feature allows you to synchronise the leave categories created on your Xero platform and make them selectable within the HR classic platform. This helps ensure Employment Hero has the latest configuration data and your employee records have the correct information.

Getting started

Update Leave categories from Xero
  1. Click the   Settings menu.
  2. Click the Leave Categories submenu.
  3. Click the   Update From Payroll button.

    Helpful Hint

    The Pay Categories page will now show a grey   Updated button and means Employment Hero has successfully imported your pay categories from your payroll platform.
