Amending an Employee's Surname

To amend an employee’s surname within Thesaurus Payroll Manager:

 

  • Within Add/Amend Employees, select the employee in question using the Surname drop down menu.

  • Left click at the end of the employee’s surname so that it is no longer highlighted in blue





  • Without deleting the original surname, type in the new surname directly after the old surname.






  • Using your mouse or arrow keys on your keyboard, now place your cursor between the two surnames.






  • Use your ‘backspace’ button on your keyboard to delete the old surname.

  • When only the new surname remains in the surname field, click 'Update' to save your changes.






  • Click 'Yes' to confirm the surname change.
