Hello ahughes-hugheslo,

 

Welcome to the Community! It's great to see that you're taking advantage of QuickBooks Online Payroll to manage all of your bookkeeping in one place and keep organized. I can walk you through how to handle this employee. 

 

The program allows you to make an employee Inactive rather than completely deleting them in case any of their information is needed in the future. Here's how you can change an employee's status to inactive in QuickBooks Online Payroll: 

  • Select Employees from the left menu.
  • Click the name of the employee you'd like to make inactive.
  • Choose Edit employee or click the pencil icon beside the Employment heading.
  • Change the Status of the employee using the drop-down menu.
  • Fill out the appropriate information.
  • Click Done to save.

After completing these steps the employee will no longer appear in your active employees list. 
 

Please reach out if there's anything else I can hep you with!
