"How do I move all the people between pay batches and locations?"
The pay batch or location "move all" button makes it possible to move everyone from one pay batch or location to another.
To move everyone from one pay batch to another:
- First, select the pay batch that the people are currently in, on: MenuPay batches
- Then tap: SettingsPay batch settings
- And scroll down to the "People in" heading.
- You'll now see a list of all the people in the current pay batch, that you're about to move to a different pay batch.
- Then (at the bottom of the list of people), tap: Move all
- Next, select the pay batch that you'd like them to all be moved to.
- If you're curious to see the pay batch's existing people, before the move, tap the "View" button: (at the end of the row)
- Then once you're ready, tap: Yes ... move all
- The people have now all been moved. To see the moved people, tap the link in the confirmation message.
- Then tap the three dots: (in the top-right corner), and tap: Reload
- And finally, you'll see all the people have been successfully moved to the other pay batch.
To move everyone from one location to another:
- First, select the location that the people are currently in, on: MenuLocations
- And scroll down to the "People in" heading.
- You'll now see a list of all the people in the current location, that you're about to move to a different location.
- Then (at the bottom of the list of people), tap: Move all
- Next, select the location that you'd like them to all be moved to.
- If you're curious to see the location's existing people, before the move, tap the "View" button: (at the end of the row)
- Then once you're ready, tap: Yes ... move all
- The people have now all been moved. To see the moved people, tap the link in the confirmation message.
- Then tap the three dots: (in the top-right corner), and tap: Reload
- And finally, you'll see all the people have been successfully moved to the other location.
Keep in mind that:
- You can always move them back again, if you change your mind.
- However, if you keep them there, the moved people instantly get all the new pay batch's or location's settings.
- Including all of the pay batch's holiday dates, tax settings, and more.
- If the new pay batch has different payday settings, watch out for unintended consequences. Like them getting double paid for time already paid in the previous pay batch.
- If you only want to move a few people, instead of all the people, use Add people instead.
And that's it! That's everything you need to know about how to move everyone from one pay batch or location to another!
