Archiving an Employee Record

Archiving Employee Records

This article explains the process for archiving individual records on Common Benefits.

The Employee Archive

The employee archive is a storage space for inactive employee records. Archived employee records do not appear on reports, exports, or data feeds.

Individual records can be archived from the Employees screen, or from the Employee Detail screen.

From the Employees screen, administrators can toggle the view between active and archived employee records by clicking the Archived Employees and Active Employees buttons.

Prerequisites

  • The Company must be in either Administrative Mode or an active Enrollment Session suspended to archive employee records.
  • If data feeds are being used to send data to a carrier or vendor, then it is important to make sure recent changes to the employees record, such as terminations, are first sent on any ongoing feeds before archiving the record.
