How to delete employee from Time who is already deleted from Quickbooks online?

Good day, @siri0726. Thanks for using QB Time as your partner in tracking your employee time. Moreover, we'd love to help you archive those employees.

We see that the ability to archive employees is greyed out, you're most likely linked to QuickBooks Online through our payroll bundle option. What that means is that to archive, you'll need to make that user inactive in QuickBooks online and then run an import. 

You'll run an import by selecting the QuickBooks dropdown menu in the upper right-hand corner in QB Time. It provides you with the option to import new information.

Other than that, you need to log in as Master Admin or Admin to be able to archive employees. 

Moreover, We'll share articles here to help you navigate your QB Time account:

• Create ad manage jobs or customers in QuickBooks Time.
• Set up and manage customer fields in QuickBooks Time.
• Set up and manage Time Off in QuickBooks Time.

For additional questions, don't hesitate to reply to this post. We'll be happy to lend a hand. Take care.

I am having the exact same problem with not being able to archive three different terminated employees within QuickBooks Time.

The ability to archive employees is greyed out and says "Employees and QuickBooks users can't be archived. Which I understand means that my QuickBooks Time is linked to QuickBooks Online through the payroll bundle option.

After visiting QuickBooks Online and verifying that each terminated employee is inactive in QuickBooks online I ran an import in QuickBooks Time. I ran this import by selecting the QuickBooks dropdown menu in the upper right-hand corner in QuickBooks Time.

After the import was completed I still have the same three terminated employees still visible and not archived within QuickBooks Time. I am an admin so I should be able to archive employees.

Please help me figure out what is going on.

Hi, Joshua. We appreciate the steps you've performed when managing employees' time. And, I've come to share additional insights to help you archive these employees in your QB Time account.

Since you've imported the new information to QuickBooks Time, we can manually delete them from your settings to ensure data are now accurate. To do that:

1. In your QB Time account, go to My Team from the left panel menu.
2. Under the All Team Members tab, select the specific employee and click on the three-dot icon.
3. Then, click Archive to delete them.

However, if you're still unable to archive these employees, we recommend contacting our QuickBooks Time support team to provide real-time assistance in archiving them from your account. Also, they have the necessary tools to ensure all selected employees are deleted from your time-tracking data. 

Furthermore, I'm including these handy resources that you may utilize when setting up time off accruals and timesheet approvals:

• Set up and configure time off accruals in QuickBooks Time.
• Set up timesheet submission and approvals in QuickBooks Time.

I read through the string here and none of the suggested fixes are working. Is it possible the protocol has changed since these postings?
