Delete an Employee

Alex Duran -

Warning: Deleting an employee record permanently erases all of the employee’s profile data and attendance history. This action cannot be undone. When an employee leaves your company, we strongly recommend that you change the employee’s status from “Active” to “Inactive” rather than deleting the record, so you can continue to access the employee’s attendance history via reports (in case of an unemployment dispute, for example). You should only delete an employee record if you are absolutely certain you will never again need access to the employee’s attendance history.
 
  1. Click Employees in the top menu bar to open the Employee Directory page.
     
  2. Click the Employee's Name within the List to display their profile.
     
  3. Click the Delete Employee link at the top of the profile.

    I cannot delete an employee.  The time out timer just keeps circling.

    It seams nobody wants to correct this issue since here it is a week after the comment Joanna made and I am having this problem also!

    I am having the same problem. I want to clear out a couple of people that were here for a very short time. It just spins and nothing ever happens.

    Same issue - the delete employee function doesn't seem to work.

    I've accidentally put someone in twice and can't delete one of them. I guess I'll make the incorrect record inactive. That's the only way to not have them count against your number limit.

    Here is how I deleted an employee - 

    Change the employee that you want to delete to "Inactive" and save then delete.  That is how I got it to work.

    I make everyone inactive and then leave them in for a bit before deleting, so that method doesn't work for me. I tried again just in case, but it's a no-go.

    click on save and continue

    remove the email address

    then click on delete employee

    That worked! I wish they would publish this for the masses or just fix the glitch.

    Same for me.  Trying to delete one and it just spins and spins.  Very frustrating.  We love this program, but when it won't work, it completely counteracts the love : (

    I am having the same response when trying to delete an employee. They are ready classified as inactive and now I want to delete them altogether.
