There are only a few steps to make an employee inactive, @Godzilla1.

To do it, you just need to select Terminated or another appropriate status. I’m glad to show you the steps.

1. Click the Payroll menu, then go to Employees.
2. Select the employee's name.
3. Select the Pencil icon on the Employment section.
4. Under the Status dropdown, select the best option.
5. Press Done to save the changes.

Check out this reference to learn more: Terminate or change your employee's status on payroll.

In case you need to create a final paycheck before updating their status in QuickBooks. You can use this information to cover their remaining wages: Create final paychecks for terminated employee.
