THAT IS NOT DELETING THE CONTRACTOR

You can only make contractors inactive to delete them, Hayes. QuickBooks Online Payroll uses this option so you can still access their information and retrieve their status if needed.

When a contractor is deleted or inactive in the program, their information won't display on your active list anymore nor in your reports. You can follow the steps provided by my colleague, Sherrie_F.

Additionally, here's an article on paying contractors using direct deposit in QBO: Pay a contractor with direct deposit.

I'll be sure to keep an eye out for your reply if you still have additional questions concerning contractors. Feel free to reach out to the Community at any time. Take care!
