Hey there, @mheastandsonsltd,

I can get you around on how to remove inactive employees from your payroll processing in QuickBooks Online for United Kingdom.

To exclude these employees when creating payslips, you'll need to update their employment status. Perform these steps on your account:

1. Choose the Employees menu from the navigation panel.
2. Tap the Employees tab to open your employee list.
3. Select the inactive name to open his/her profile.
4. Click on the Active drop-down below the employee name.
5. Select the Mark as leaver option.
6. Fill out the Leaving date and the Reasons for leaving fields.
   
7. Hit Save.

That should complete your work. I've attached here an article to help you manage employee status in QBO: Managing an employee status in QuickBooks Online Standard Payroll

Please get back to me if you have additional questions about the payroll feature in QBO. I'm here to ensure you're on top of your business activities. Have a nice day!
