Error message when changing from hourly to salaried

SimoneL5

Trying to change an employee who was mistakenly listed as hourly when infact should have been salaried.

Getting error message - 'One or more payroll categories cannot be deselected as they have been used on recorded timesheets'

 

I am a novice. Please help.

Hi @SimoneL5 

 

A payroll category cannot actually be removed from an employee’s card if it had ever been recorded on a timesheet for that employee. If that's the case, you will either have to create a new employee card or continue using the same card with hourly rate.

 

But, if it has never been recorded in a timesheet before, I would make sure there are no unprocessed Timesheets in your system that could be causing this error, even if they are blank without hours in them - you will need to delete these - to avoid the error. You can find these under Reports > Payroll > Unprocessed timesheets > Right-click on the timesheet and delete.

 

Let me know how you go with this, happy to assist with any further queries.
