error: one or more payroll categories cannot be deselected as they have been used on recorded timesheets

I need to unlink unused payroll categories from employees cards - how can this be done?

    Hi FarmNess

     

    Apologies for the delay in getting back to you.

     

    Due to the way AccountRight works, it's not possible to unlink a payroll category from an employee once it has been used in a timesheet. One way that other users get around this is renaming old payroll categories with ZZZ at the start, eg ZZZ Overtime, this way the payroll category appears at the bottom of lists. You may also try to unlink directly from the payroll categories and not on the employee card file on the exempt part.

     

    I hope it goes well, and consider giving a kudos if the information was helpful.

     

    Cheers,
    Leneth
