Easyfile Employer - can one delete or merge employees?

[Laurence Lombard]

I manually created an employee and IRP5 certificates. Then I was testing the "Import/Export Payroll File" and generated an IRP5 for the same employee using the csv format. Now I have two employees with the same name on my list of employees. Is there a way to either delete the second instance of the employee or merge it with the first instance, else it gets pretty confusing. I am not sure why the "Import Payroll File" process added the employee as it was already there. Some details were different (Employee number, parts of the address) - I'm guessing that was the cause

Hi Laurence

There is a way of merging employees. Go to Utilities > Reassign Certificates. Choose the two identical employees and reassign. The "new employee" should be the one with the correct info.

If I remember correctly you have to be in ADMIN mode to do this.

Brilliant. Thanks folks. Works like a bomb. Once again this forum comes to the rescue.
