How to Edit an Employee's Regularization Date in Sprout HR?
Need to update or correct an employee's regularization date, but the field seems locked or uneditable? If a team member is already marked as "Regular," the system hides the date modification field by default. To unlock it and update the records, you simply need to perform a quick status refresh within their profile.
Follow these steps to update the regularization date successfully:
- Navigate to the Profile: Search for the employee and open their profile.
- Go to Work Information: Click on the Work Information tab.
- Toggle the Employment Status: * Locate the Employment Status dropdown.
- Temporarily switch the status from Regular to Probationary (or any other active employment status).

- Temporarily switch the status from Regular to Probationary (or any other active employment status).
- Re-select Regular: Immediately switch the dropdown back to Regular.
- Input the New Date: Toggling the status prompts the system to display the hidden field for the New Regularization Date. Enter the correct date in this field.
- Save Your Changes: Scroll down and click Save Changes at the bottom of the page to apply the update.
