I have made an error in entering an employee and I want to delete what I have done and start over. How do I do that?

Hi guestservices-bo,

It's great to see that you're using QuickBooks Online Payroll for business needs. QuickBooks Online has a robust payroll module that makes paying your employees a breeze. Let me walk you through this process and get you back to doing what you love.

You'll need to remove any paycheques created on their profile prior to deleting the employee.

To delete an employee, follow these simple steps:

1. Go to Payroll from the left navigation menu.
2. Select the Employee tab.
3. Click Paycheque List.
4. Check the box for the paycheques for the employee, and click Delete. Confirm Yes. Keep in mind that you'll only be able to delete the most recent paycheque.
5. Click back to employee list.
6. Choose the employee you wish to delete, and click Edit employee.
7. At the bottom of the screen, you will see Delete Employee. 
8. Confirm and click Yes in the window that opens.

Once this is completed, you can re-enter all of the employee's information.

Reach out if you have any further questions. I'm here to help. Have a great night!
