Removing payroll categories

Hi georgieh

Thanks for sharing the payroll category screenshots. I get how a long list of payroll categories can make things a bit messy. While you can't delete categories that have been used, you can definitely manage their active status. This should help clear up your screen a bit. If you're expecting more codes with the new financial year, it's a good idea to sort this out now. If you need to permanently remove a pay item from an employee so it no longer appears in their pay, here's how:

1. From the payroll menu, choose employees.
2. Click the employee's name.
3. Click the relevant tab, such as Salary and Wages, Leave, Deductions, Superannuation, or Expenses.
4. Click the remove icon next to the pay item to be removed.
5. Click Save.

Kind regards,
