Hi Jaydana1,
Thanks for your post.
A payroll category cannot actually be removed from an employee’s card if it has ever been recorded on a timesheet for that employee. If it has been used previously, you could rename it and add zzz to the front of the wage category name (if it is no longer in use). This would put it at the bottom of the similar-typed wage categories, which would help make it more obvious that the wage category wasn’t being used.
If you'll be unlinking payroll categories in the employee's card, this can be done by going to Card File >> Card List >> Select Employee >> Select Payroll Details >> Untick the selected payroll categories >> Select OK to save changes. Or go to Payroll >>Payroll categories >> select category >> select employee to open the list of employees and untick >> select okay to save changes.
However, it is not possible to unlink a payroll category once it has been used in a timesheet. If this is an unused payroll category, could you remove it from the timesheet? Once this is not included in the timesheet, you can always go back to the employee's payroll details to unlink it.
Please let me know if you need further help.

Hi thank you for the response however that doesn't help, sorry. I'm aware you cannot remove the payroll category, my suggestion is for it to become "inactive" for that particular employee. It remains on the employee's card but doesn't show on the timesheet anymore once it has been marked "inactive" I cannot remove the "tick" as it has been used previously. So the employee's card has that payroll category "ticked" but if you go into the payroll category, there needs to be a button (similar to other cards) that you can make it "inactive" just for that employee. The category is used by other people so no, I can't rename it or make it zzz as it is needed for other people's timesheets, I just want it "inactive" for this particular person so when I do his timesheet, the category no longer appears for selection which saves any errors when processing. Just needs to be more user friendly. At the moment the way it is set up, it is "all or nothing". Needs to be a way to not "remove" it but just stop it showing up anymore for selection when doing timesheets.
