Removing or restoring staff

Take someone off a store when they leave, and bring them back later from Past employees with their details intact.

When someone leaves, remove them from the store on the Staff tab. They disappear from new rosters and stop counting towards your subscription, but nothing is deleted: they move to Past employees, where you can restore them any time.

Removing an employee

  1. Open the store and click the Staff tab.
  2. Click the ... menu at the end of the person's row, then Remove from store.
  3. Confirm with Remove.

They're taken off this store only. If they work at another of your stores, they stay there. Their WeRoster login isn't deleted. If they're also a manager here, they stay a manager until you remove them from the Managers list too.

Restoring an employee

  1. Find Past employees below the Employees list and click Show.
  2. Click Restore next to the person (or Restore to this store in the ... menu).

Their wage and weekly hours come back as they were. Adding someone with New employee using the same email address also brings them back.

Removing or restoring a manager

In the Managers list, click the ... menu, then Remove as manager, and confirm with Remove. They move to Past managers. Click Show there, then Restore to make them a manager again.

Removing someone as a manager doesn't remove them as an employee, and the other way round.

Does it affect billing?

Yes. Your plan is based on the number of people across all your active stores, so removing people who've left can move you to a smaller plan. Someone still counts if they're an employee or manager at any of your other active stores, so remove them everywhere they no longer work. See Plans and pricing.
