Projectworks has an integration to Xero payroll, while leave reports can be exported to be loaded into other systems.
Projectworks has a built in integration to Xero Payroll, allowing leave that is entered and approved in Projectworks to be automatically exported as leave for the employee in Xero Payroll.
There is also a CSV export option that is formatted specifically for uploading into iPayroll.
The All Leave screen in the leave section allows you to see all leave requests for a date range and filtered so you can see the ones you are more interested in.
You will only be able to see leave requests for the people you have permission to see (reporting lines are used for this). If you have to leave approver superpowers you will be able to see (and approve) all leave from here.
A few tips
- Filter by status if you just want to identify pending requests - so you can review them (or follow them up)
- Use the date picker to select a custom date range (eg your payroll period)
- HR/Payroll people - you can also see leave request for inactive people if needed (eg if an employee has recently left)
- The CSV exports are based on the filters that are set
