Sometimes an employee may be terminated incorrectly or a mistake is made which needs to be corrected (e.g. an incorrect termination date). In these instances the best option is to use the Undo Termination function. As the name suggests, this reverts the termination so the employee is active again. This will reinstate the employee at their original start date and keeps all data.
When an employee is returning and beginning a new period of employment or is under a new contract, the Reinstate option can be a better option. Please see the guide on Reinstating an Employee for details.
To undo a termination, select the Employee tab > Search > Show Terminated Employees and select the relevant employee.
Select Reinstate Employee in the ribbon and choose Undo Termination.
In the dialogue box presented, click OK to continue.
Once the reversal of termination is complete, the details fields will change from grey to white to allow for changes.
Note: undoing a termination will not alter any payments made, only employee status. Any termination payments made to an employee will not be removed from pay packets, and will need to be recovered if necessary.
