Hi there, 


Reactivating your employees is an important tool that you have access to in QuickBooks Online. Rather than starting from scratch, QuickBooks makes it easy for former employees to be reactivated in the system when the continue employment with your company. 

 

Here's what you'll do:

 

1. Click the Employees tab on the left navigation menu. 

2. Under the Employee list, from the Active employees drop-down menu, select Inactive employees.

3. Click the employee you'd like to reactivate. 

4. Click Edit employee.

5. Select the Employment tab at the top of the page. 

6. Change their status to Active. 

7. Click Done. 

 

That's all there is to it. If you have any other questions, let me know. 


Have a great day.

Do you change the start date of the employment?

In this case, the employee is coming back after a year of absence and as casual labor versus full-time.

Hi Yogasomewhere. Thanks for chiming in on this thread. The original start date can remain the same or you could edit it if you'd like. The choice is completely yours when it comes to this. Let me know if you have other questions, I'm here to help.

I had issued an ROE to an employee and we have now hired him back.  How do I amend that in Quickbooks desktop ?
