In this article you'll learn how to deactivate an employee profile and then delete it from your organization. Deactivating an employee removes their access to your organization and stops billing for their account, while deletion removes their profile from reports and search results across most modules. This article is for HR administrators who need to remove employee records from the system.
Go to the item People in the left menu bar
Click on the Employee profile you would like to delete
Go to the Personal page of the employee profile
Click Deactivate Employee on the right corner under Actions.
Accept the popup dialog to deactivate an employee
Once you deactivate an employee, you will see an option to delete an employee. Click Delete Employee under Actions
Accept the popup dialog to delete an employee
Note:
Once you deactivate an employee, he/she won't be able to access to your organization anymore and you will not be charged for this account.
The employee profile will never appear in reports or search results except in some functionalities as listed below:
