Add industry total wages index to read_payrolls #177

Closed martintburgess closed 2 years ago

martintburgess commented 2 years ago

Hi @MattCowgill,

Thanks for all your work on this.

I think we are missing one sheet from the payrolls data in the read_payrolls function - Table 4 has a second sheet "Total wages index".

I think it is a relatively straightforward fix to add into the existing function, I will have a quick go at that now and then send you a PR.

Many thanks, Martin

Thanks @martintburgess - I did actually have that in there at one point as an option, I think I dropped it because the ABS said they were going to stop publishing the wages totals, but then backtracked on that.

Sure, if you don't mind submitting a PR that'd be great. The series column in the returned tibble should read wages obviously. Thanks

Thanks @MattCowgill, I think code to swap the series column to wages is still there from the previous version so it's a very simple fix.
