ANSWER ID:4423

When an employee finishes and you terminate their employment, they remain in Payroll as an Ex-Employee. This is because the software needs to retain the employee pay history.

Do you need to complete this process?

The finishing process described below is only to be used if you need to terminate an employee without processing a final pay to pay out all leave balances. If you are processing a final pay, see process a final pay.

 

Here's how you can finish an employee without paying a final pay, and how you can reinstate an employee who starts working for you again.
