Question

Can we change the employee name dropdown on timesheets to not include inactive employees?

For our primary admin user, it is showing the inactive employees first and she has to scroll down past them to get to the active employees. It's very annoying and time consuming. Thanks!

Hello, bonniew-healingr.

 

I understand the feeling when you have to select something within a lot of unnecessary choices from a list just like when choosing an employee on the timesheet. However, this option is unavailable. Previous employees with transactions attached to it will continue to appear from the timesheet list.


Read more about how Timesheets works through this article: Fill in the weekly timesheet.

 

You may want to look for a third-party application that can help you achieve this task. There are plenty of applications or apps developed by third-party businesses that sync or integrate with your QuickBooks account. These apps can extend account functionality and provide additional services for your business.

 

To find a tool for pricing rules, perform the steps below:

 

  1. Login to qbo.intuit.com
  2. From the left menu, select Apps.


That should answer your question for today. Let me know if you need anything else. I’ll be here to help. Wishing you and your business continued success!

Hi,

 

The first paragraph of your response makes sense, even though it's not the answer we were hoping for.

 

The second part about 3rd party integrations is confusing. Are you suggesting there is a 3rd party service that can somehow make the former employees not appear in the time sheets "employee" dropdown?

 

I would rather you stick to an actual answer, even if it's not what we were hoping for, than to send me on a wild goose chase for a 3rd party extension. That is confusing, and unfair. Just own the answer, good or bad. Don't try to pass it off onto a 3rd party and/or waste my time.

 

Thanks.

It's really annoying that we cannot eliminate inactive employees from the timesheet dropdown choices.
