How Do I Reactivate an Employee?

To reactivate an employee:

1. Go to Payroll > Employees > Employee List
2. Make sure your employee list has the “Show Inactives” toggled on.
3. Find the employee you want to reactivate, and slide the “Status”
4. Change the status to “Active”
5. Enter the Effective Date of the status change.
   • Effective dates in the future will show on the employee list in the Pending Status column.
6. (Optional) If you are paying the employee before their effective date, check the box and enter the date you want this employee to show in payroll step one.
7. (Optional) Enter a Reason.
8. (Optional) Enter any Comments.
9. Click “Save.”

Note:  At the time you inactivate an employee, any deductions or contributions on their record will also be inactivated.  If you reactivate the employee, their deductions and contributions will remain inactive, unless you activate each deduction and contribution.

To inactivate an employee, you would do the reverse.  See “How Do I Inactivate an Employee?“
