Letting an employee go can be challenging. But it's important to take steps to keep your records accurate. I'm here to share some insights about deleting your employees in QuickBooks Online (QBO) Payroll.
The option In QBO Payroll, we have two ways to remove an employee from the list: deleting or changing their employment status.
Before deleting an employee, ensure that there are no pay histories, timesheet data, or paychecks associated with their name, as this will prevent their removal.
Here's how you can delete your employee:
- Go to Payroll, then select Employees.
- Select the employee's name. If the employee isn't on the list, select All Employees from the Active Employees dropdown.
- Select the employee you want to delete.
- From Actions, select Delete employee.
- Select Yes.
