If you have deleted an employee's data, you can restore a backup. If you have an eportal or Employee Self Service (ESS) application, then restoring a backup will not be advised; this will jeopardise your employee's leave application and approval. (Depending on the backup date that you restored, you will need to get your employee to cancel their leave and reapply again in eportal).

Follow the steps below to restore a backup, or you can create the employee's data and his past pay records (if you choose not to restore a backup):

Restore a backup

  1. Click EPE Control, then click Restore.

  2. Select the database and click Next.

  3. Select the backup file to restore and click OK.

Recreate the employee and his pay records

  1. Go to the Core module, and click Personnel Details.

  2. Click New and enter the employee's record, then click Save.

  3. Click the Employment Status tab, and click New.

  4. Enter the employee's employment records and click Save.

  5. Go to the Payroll module, and click Pay Records.

  6. Click New and double-click the current period.

  7. Change the period to period 1, for example then click Next to bring over the employee. (Repeat these steps until the current period),

  8. Go to the Leave module, click Modify Leave.

  9. Select the employee and apply all his leave records for the current year.

  10. In the Leave module, click Modules and select Adjustment Leave.

  11. Adjust his leave records if necessary.

  12. Click Modules and select Brought Forward.

  13. Enter the Brought Forward leave days for this year.
