Payroll Catagories - Make them inactive

Hi, we have alot of payroll catagories that are no longer active as they are under the current award rate (they go back almost 8 years) but as employees used them a long time ago i am unable to remove them from payslips

 

I keep seeing solutions to put zz infront of the catagory but they stil show up on payslips. Some employees have 20 different rates (all old rates)  on their payslips so this doesnt work

 

Is there a way to make them inactive so they no longer show on payslips as they will not be used anymore. Clients have been asking MYOB to solve this issue for a long time but it seems that nothing has been done to fix this issue.

    Hi SharonKoch,

     

     In AccountRight, payroll categories can't be deleted if they have been used historically. However, if a category is not used in a new pay run, it will not appear in the future pay runs, though it will still show up in previous pay runs where it was used. To move it to the bottom of the list, we recommend adding a 'Z' or similar identifier to the category.
