I marked an employee as a leaver in error
If you've marked an employee as a leaver but haven't yet processed a pay run, you can reinstate their record. Once reinstated, they will be included in your current payroll.
To reinstate an employee:
Navigate to the People Section:
- Click on the People section in the main menu.
Select the Employee:
- Find the employee you wish to terminate.
- Click on the three dots (...) next to the employee's name.
- Select Edit to open the employee record.
Reinstate Employee
- Next to the employee's name in their record, click on the three dots (⋮).
- Choose Reinstate employee* from the dropdown menu.
Note: If you have already processed the employee as a leaver and submitted payroll, you cannot reinstate the leaver. Instead, you must add them as a new starter and use the P45 from their previous leaver record. Note that you will also need to give them a new payroll id, as indicated by HMRC.
