How to delete a document published in error

How to Delete an HRDoc Published in Error in HRLocker

If an HRDoc has been published in error, the document must first be archived and then, if necessary, republished correctly. It is not possible to archive the document for a single employee; archiving affects all users who have access to that document.

Steps to Unpublish and Delete an HRDoc Published in Error

  • Navigate to HRDocs:

    • Log in to HRLocker and go to the HRDocs section.
  • Select All Documents:

    • From the dropdown menu, select All Documents to display all published HRDocs.
  • Archive the Document:

    • Locate the document that was published in error.
    • Archive the document by selecting the Archive option.
    • This will unpublish the document for all users immediately.
  • Go to Archived Documents:

    • After archiving, navigate to the Archived tab in HRDocs.
    • Select All Documents from the dropdown to view the archived documents.
  • Delete the Document:

    • If the document should not be used at all, find it in the Archived section and select Delete to permanently remove it from HRLocker.

  • Un-archive a Document (if archived in error):

    • If a document was archived by mistake, locate it in the Archived section.
    • Select Un-archive to republish the document and make it available to the relevant users again.
  • Republish the Document (if needed):

    • If the document needs to be republished with corrections, return to HRDocs, click Add New, and republish the document with the correct details.

Important Notes

  • Archiving unpublishes the document for all users, not just one employee.
  • If a document is deleted from the Archived section, it is permanently removed and cannot be recovered.
  • To correct a document, it should be archived, deleted, and then republished with the correct information.

By following these steps, you can efficiently unpublish, delete, and republish HRDocs that were published in error.
