MYOB Essentials/Business - changing casual employees with timesheets to full time permanent on salary

[A-ZBookkeeping]

I keep getting the error message: One or more payroll categories cannot be deselected as they have been used on recorded timesheets.  But I don't know which pay item it's referring to so I can try to correct it?  I have updated leave accruals and leave pay items but these have not been used before.  Employee previously using timesheets.  I have deselected 'use timesheets' etc but still no luck.  How do I find the pay item in question and fix it - or do I need to make a new employee card?  TIA

Hi

My personal recommendation is always to create a new employee card when an employee changes Employment Basis.

For your specific question, once a category has been used via the timesheet module, you cannot deselect/delete them. MYOB are aware and may provide a fix one day.

Thanks

Hi @A-ZBookkeeping 

Thank you so much for your post. I would recommend to check if 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. 
Regards,
Earl
