Hi there fvoffice-justlik,

 

Mistakes like this are easy to make, but I know how important it is to correct them. Removing the duplicate employee from the system will be an easy process, and I'm here to walk you through it.

 

If you've already completed this employee's profile or have run payroll for the duplicate profile, you'll be able to mark them as Inactive rather than completely delete them. This is similar to deleting, but gives you the option to continue to access the information associated with their profile if necessary.

 

To make an employee Inactive, please follow these steps:

 

  1. Navigate to the Employees section of the Payroll menu from the left.
  2. Choose the duplicate employee from the list, then click Edit.
  3. Change their Employment Status to Inactive

 

If you haven't yet finished completing the employee profile for the duplicate, you may notice the option to Delete employee at the bottom centre of the page when you select their name from the list. If this option is present, go ahead and delete the employee. It's as easy as that.

 

Let me know if there's anything else I can help with, and have a great weekend!
