Punch/Pay data purge?

Post by blabj »

Hi,

We are finally going live on timetrex staring Dec. 28th (first pay period in 2009).

I have all employees and policies established, but I have alot of test punches and open pay periods (6 months worth).

Whats the best way to purge punch and pay info?

I tried going to the Pay Period Schedule List, selecting all periods and clicking "Delete".. it gave warning, but it didn't delete anything.

Thanks,

-Bob

Were the pay periods closed or locked by chance?

Sorry shaunw.. my bad. The reason it didn't work is because there were two pages of data.. you have to delete the oldest first.. so once i went to page 2 and deleted those.. I could delete page 1.

Is this all that is needed to purge?

Is there any setting for defining beginning of year to be Dec. 28th?

Thanks,

-Bob

Yes, deleting the pay periods should be all you really need to do. Just confirm any pay stubs are also deleted.

TimeTrex really has no concept of "the beginning of the year". It simply uses the first pay period with a transaction date in 2009.
