How do I merge team member with payroll team member?

[GroomingZen]

I have myself listed as a “team member” and also as a “payroll team member”  but the two are not connected (as they are for the rest of my employees) this is probably because of the way I originally set things up when I was first learning the system (as in I set myself up in both sections independently of each other as opposed to hitting the option to “add team member to payroll”).

Is there anyway to merge these two entries or do I have to delete myself from payroll and then add myself from the team member section?

@GroomingZen Ouch.  I know of no way you can merge those two.  You might be able to call Square Support at (855) 700-6000 and have them do it, but I can not guarantee that.  Having said that……

I will give you one warning.  Square Payroll can get confused if you have two employees in the payroll team that have the same social security number.  I had a serious mess with that because I inadvertently created two payroll team member accounts for the same employee.  That took a week or so to straighten out, and it was definitely my own fault!  So, if you do decide to delete yourself from payroll and then add yourself back the correct way, you would be wise to change your social security number to something like 555-55-5555 and save that before you do.

Personally, I’d call Square Support before doing anything.  You definitely do not want to mess up your payroll!

Best wishes,
