New employees can be created directly in Salaris, they can be imported from SocialSchedules or if they exist in both systems, they can be linked to an existing profile in SocialSchedules. Employees who have left your employment can be terminated.

Employee Payroll Mapping to Schedule
If you have added Employees manually in Salaris who already have a profile in SocialSchedules or Workforce you will need to map them. This connects their timecards to the correct employee in Salaris so hours can be included in payroll.
For mapping instructions, see:
Employees do not need to be mapped if they will not be paid based on timecards (for example, salaried employees).
For employees who have not downloaded the mobile app, they will need it to complete their payroll profile:
Employees in Genius for Restaurant POS
If you use Genius Restaurant POS, see the Genius Integration Guide for information on importing employees and syncing employee data with SocialSchedules.
Employee Rates and Positions
Rates and positions are managed in the scheduler rather than in payroll. Please refer to the SocialSchedules or Workforce Management articles on Rates and Positions/Jobs for more details.
Terminating/Remove an Employee from Payroll
Employees who have left your employment can be terminated from payroll in Salaris. Terminated employees can still be paid.
Log into Salaris > Employees
Click Employee Name > select vertical ellipsis ⋮
Terminate Employee > enter Termination date > Save
Inactivating an Employee in Payroll
Once they have been paid their final payroll, the employee can be marked inactive. Inactive employees cannot be paid. This cannot be done in the UI. Please contact Salaris support with the employees to be marked inactive.
Terminating Employees in Workforce
Employees who have been paid in the current year cannot be terminated without an SSN, as it is needed to produce their W-2 at the end of the year.
We recommend not terminating employees in POS before their last paycheck has been paid.
When an employee is terminated in Customer Hub in Shift4, they are removed from Workforce. Salaris can no longer use their employee rate to calculate their pay, so it will default to the position rate.
