I have no such option. I inserted an employee instead of a Contractor by accident. Can you provide steps how to delete the employee, so that I can enter the Contractor instead?

Let me walk you through the steps on how to delete an employee, @contact-webcraft,

 

In QuickBooks Online Payroll, deleting an employee accidentally entered can be done directly under their profile information. I'll show you how.

 

  1. Go to Payroll.
  2. Select Employees.
  3. Choose the name of the du[plicate employee in question.
  4. Under the employee name, select Edit employee.
  5. Select Delete employee.
  6. Click Yes.

 

Now that your employee is gone, here's an article you can read and learn more about adding contractors: Set up Contractors in QuickBooks Online Payroll.

 

I've got you this helpful article for ideas about how you can work well with your employees' payroll in QuickBooks: Help Articles in QuickBooks Online Payroll. You can also get an overview of the other payroll features used to save time in creating your paychecks and running your payroll.

 

If there's anything else that I can help you with aside from working with your contractors in QuickBooks, please let me know in the comment section below. I'll be notified once you include my name, @JonpriL, in your follow-up reply. Take care always!
