Editing an employee lets you keep their profile up to date — from job details and department to compensation, work schedule, and status.
Steps
- Open the employee from the Employee Directory, or click Edit on their profile.
- Update any fields you need. You can change name, email, phone, Department, Manager, Job Title, and Employment Type.
- Set the Status (Active, Inactive, Terminated, or On Leave). You can also record a termination date.
- Adjust personal details, address, emergency contact, compensation, and work schedule as needed.
- Click the save button to apply your changes.
Warning: A termination date must be on or after the hire date.
Status and the linked login account
If the employee has a linked login account, changing their status keeps the account in sync:
- Setting the status to Terminated or Inactive deactivates their login account.
- Setting a previously terminated or inactive employee back to Active reactivates the account and sends them a welcome email to set up their password again.
Managing the login account
- If the employee has no account yet, you can turn on Create User Account to create a new one or link an existing user.
- If the employee already has a linked account, you can unlink it.
