Remove employee from Project Hour costs

Hello nik-infitouts-co,

At the moment we're unable to remove an employee added to the hourly project cost. If the employee is no longer working for your company you can edit the amount or cost rate of the employee to zero. 

If the employee is no longer with you, you can also check your employee list and set the employee to terminated status. Here's how:

1. Click on the Employees tab.
2. Click on the Employee name.
3. Scroll down to the bottom of the employee detail, and click on Terminate employee.
4. Set termination date and reason.

Post again in the Community if you have more questions. I'll be around to help you.

So you can delete but can you edit the name of the employee? I can’t see an option on that either 

Hi nik-infitouts-co,

Let me show you how to edit an employee name. 

1. Go to Employees tab.
2. Select an employee.
3. Then enter the employee's name on the field provided.
4. Select Save.

Feel free to message us back if you need further assistance. Have a great day!

The employee section is empty and my project cost rate has employees?

Its asking me to add employees 

Hi nik-infitouts-co,

Thanks for getting back to us. From the Employees tab page, can you set the filter to All Employees instead of Active Employees? From there check if the employee's name shows up and see if you can set them to inactive or terminated status by clicking their name.

Since the feature to remove employees from the hourly project cost is unavailable at the moment, it's best to set the hours to zero for that employee to not be included in the project.

Feel free to post again in the Community if you have more questions.
