Payroll - Employee Pay Items Report question

[rporter1952]

I have tried a couple things in version 11 to prevent former employees showing up in the Pay Items report in the payroll module. I have tried setting their end of employment date, assuming that would be the most obvious. I also tried deleting all pay items. They still show up in the report for pay items. Is there something missing in the software to more elegantly manage this? Also, why do we have to select only one pay group to generate the pay items report?

I am in version 9, but this might help. We set up a group called "G" for gone. everyone we don't want to list goes into that group. Then we pull "S" for salary, or "P" for preschool "H" for hourly.

Version 11 adds a "Former Employees" pay group by default. The idea is that once an employee leaves you will move them to this group.

Thank you for the clarification. I've now set those who have left to the Former Employees group.
Now that you've shown me, it is obvious.

Now to my question about selecting groups for reports. Could the report be improved to allow selection of more than one group for reporting?
