Time sheet editor team member field has a default name
The team member field defaults to an employee that is no longer with our organization. Is there a way that field can be blank?

Good day, DockCo.
At the moment, we're unable to save blank name in QuickBooks even if the user is already inactive. You'll want to archive the old employee so the name would no longer show up in the list of team members.
Let me share the steps with you:
- Go to the My Team menu.
- Look for the name of the old employee, then click the three-dot icon in the right-hand corner.
- Select Archive and click Confirm to remove the user.
Additional details about this are also provided in these articles:

- Add and Manage Team Members in QuickBooks Time
For additional references and guidance, feel free to check out these articles as well:

Please don't hesitate to reply back to us and let me know if you're able to remove the name. You can also ask follow-up questions if you still need help with this.

Strange thing but there is no "archive" option on this individual. There is for all other employees listed but not for her.
Back story is that she used to be the primary administrator. She is no longer with the company.

We sincerely appreciate you responding to the thread and giving us further information,@DockCo. It's my pleasure to help you with this.
The archive option is unavailable if that particular individual is still set up as the primary admin in QuickBooks Time. If you're the admin, you can transfer or change the primary admin role to have the option and be able to archive that person. If you aren't and the primary admin is no longer with the company, you can request to be the primary admin.

I am an employee and the primary admin manager. I have two users in Quickbooks time. Am I paying for two user id's? If so, how can I remove this and be a primary admin as well as an employee? This feature was just added on as myself and another employee didn't need/use Quickbooks time.
More add ons that don't need to be. Quickbooks needs to stop fixing things that don't need fixing.
