Employee Termination Dialog Window Update
The following 2 min 38 sec clip shows the different messages that a Timegate Web 20.3 user can expect when terminating employees. These messages act as an aide-mémoire to ensure you do not terminate an employee when there are still customer payments due for duties that the employee has undertaken.
From Timegate Web Version 20.3 , a new feature has been introduced to provide different messages depending upon whether the employee being terminated does or doesn't belong to a future locked/closed transaction. When an employee is terminated (i.e. by entering a Date Left in their Employee Record) and selecting Save, a message is displayed on your screen:
-
If the employee has no future transactions that are locked/closed, you will receive the message that you've traditionally received. It advises that the Employee Termination Date has been set. It also tells you that the employee will be removed from all duties, diary events, and contracts after the event
- If the employee has transactions that are locked/closed, a slightly different message is displayed on screen including the original text. It advises you that the Employee Termination Date has been set. It also tells you that the employee will be removed from all duties, diary events, and contracts after the event. Additionally, it tells you that the "Employee could be in a locked or closed period that they will be removed from after this date"
The second message is a great way of making you aware that those shifts or diary events that were contributing to a transaction within a locked/closed period will be impacted by the termination. If you have any outstanding monies or diary events that need to be logged in a previous transactions make sure that it can be done before the termination. This will help you to ensure that that they are picked up in the following period lock/close, rather than being removed completely.
