Quickbooks Payroll Standard transfer - duplicate names on Employee list

We have now moved over to Quickbooks Payroll 'Standard' and I have the success message. When I click on the Employees tab as expected there is a list of our current 'live' Employees. But also on the list are duplicate names of some of the employees (including one who left in 2019). These 'duplicate' names are marked as 'incomplete'. If I go into the record of one of these extra employees one of the actions offered is 'delete'. Is this the correct solution to remove these unwanted duplicates? Or will this cause a problem? I can leave them there if necessary. Thanks.
