You can delete an employee, but there are important considerations depending on whether they've been exported to payroll.

⚠️Important: For employees exported to payroll: You cannot delete employees who have been exported to payroll. Instead, you must terminate their employment and notify payroll to ensure they don't get paid.

For employees not exported to payroll

To delete an employee that wasn't exported to payroll, follow the below steps.

  1. Go to the employee's profile by using the organisation search.

  2. If there are multiple employments, switch to the required one

  3. Click the Admin tab then select Delete Employment.

  4. Repeat for any additional employments

To delete the entire person record

⚠️Warning: Deleting removes all historical data including rota hours, documents, and profile information.

  • Once deleted, this cannot be undone.

  • Only system administrators typically have access to these delete functions.

  • This feature is intended for employees entered in error, not regular terminations.

To delete the entire person record, follow the below steps:

  1. After deleting all employments, select Delete Person.

  2. Or alternatively: Open the employee record then click Amin.

  3. Click Admin again then click Delete person.
