My accountant mistakenly have entered an employee in the suppliers list. I wants to delete it just concern about how it will affect the past transactions made on his name? 
or is there any way to shift the name from supplier to employees without deleting any thing?

I've got you covered, NarjisACCA. I'm here to help you change your supplier to an employee in QuickBooks.

 

In QuickBooks Online, you can only inactivate your supplier. When you make your supplier inactive, the transactions associated with them remain in your company data. This prevents messing up your books. After inactivating it, we can now create an employee.

 

Here's how to make your vendor inactive:

 

  1. Go to the Expenses menu and then select Vendors.
  2. Select the name of your supplier name.
  3. Click on Edit.
  4. Choose Make inactive, then select Yes.

 

Once done, you can now create an employee. I'll show you how.

  1. Go to the Payroll menu and then select Employees.
  2. Click on Add an employee
  3. Enter the necessary details of your employee, then click Done.

 

Additionally, I encourage running payroll reports in QuickBooks Online. This helps you view useful information about your business and employees. 

 

Please come back and keep us posted on your progress in changing your supplier into an employee. It's my priority to ensure this gets resolved.
