Attaché Payroll: Cancel a timesheet in Express Leave

Updated over 2 months ago

Timesheets in Express Leave cannot be deleted, but they can be cancelled. Once cancelled they cannot be re-entered or reinstated. The Period ending dates are not available to re-enter the details. You would need to enter the timesheet into Attache manually. To cancel a timesheet, follow the steps below.


If the employee is still with the company

  1. Ask each employee to submit the timesheet in question if it has not been submitted.

  2. Get the approver user to approve the timesheet if it has not been approved.

  3. Once done, go to the Check Pay Period menu and search for these timesheets. Each one will now have a Cancel option, and you can cancel each of them.


If the employee has left the company and the timesheet is saved, but not submitted

  1. If the employee has been already deleted from Express Leave, they will need to be re-instated. This issue requires the assistance of our Support team. Please create a case so we can re-instate the employee.

  2. In Attaché Payroll, go to each employees Masterfile and from the Online Services tab, untick the Enable Attaché Online checkbox and save the changes.

  3. Go back into Express Leave as administrator and from the Manage Users area, update the email address for each of these users to be your own email address, and also make yourself the approver for these users.

  4. Log out and back into the Express Leave company. You will see multiple instances of this company under the Change Company drop down. Select each instance to then see the name of the employee and go into the My Leave tab to submit each timesheet.

  5. Select your instance of the company, go to the Approve Timesheets menu, and approve all of the timesheets for each of these users.

  6. Once done, go to the Check Pay Period menu and search for these timesheets. Each one will now have a Cancel option, and you can cancel each of them.

  7. Once done you will then be able to delete these employees from the Manage Users menu.
