Deleting an Employee

You must have the Enterprise level permission called Delete Employees to remove an employee record.

  1. Select the Enterprise, property, or revenue center, click Configuration, and then click Employee Maintenance.
  2. Search for the employee record.
  3. Right-click the employee record, and then select Delete.
  4. From the Delete Employee Records dialog, click Yes to confirm.
  5. To view a list of all deleted employees in the search area, select View Deleted Employees, and then click Search.
  6. To reactivate a deleted employee, right-click the employee record, select Reactivate, and then click Yes to confirm.

    After an employee has been de-identified, the employee cannot be reactivated because the employee’s personally identifiable information has been deleted from Simphony and cannot be reconstructed. Removing Personal Data from Simphony contains more information about de-identification.

  7. If you are an administrator and want to permanently delete an employee, right-click the employee record, select Permanently Delete, and then click Yes on the prompts to confirm.

    You cannot permanently delete an employee who is not marked Is Deleted and who has associated sales or timecard records in the Oracle Hospitality Reporting and Analytics database. Employees are mapped between the Simphony and Reporting and Analytics databases using the object number from the EMC. Consider the following example:

    • Employee 12345, Ted Davis, has $500 in sales

    • Employee 12345 is deleted from the database

    • If the EMC allowed this employee to be permanently deleted, a new employee, Mary Smith, could be added at employee record 12345 and the new employee would essentially start with $500 in sales

    Thus, the two-step employee deletion process preserves the object number between the two databases. Because of this potential scenario, object numbers are not reusable. If employee 12345 shows as Is Deleted in the database, you cannot create a new employee record using number 12345.

  8. Click Save.
  9. To withdraw an employee’s consent, see Withdrawing Consent.
