If you prefer to deactivate instead, choose the Deactivate button—this will allow you to retain the employee's time tracking data, but they will no longer be able to access the account or be counted towards billing.


Delete Administrator

The process of deleting an Administrator is the same as deleting an employee or manager, but you must first remove the Administrator from the Admin list.

This can be done from the Settings --> Administrators page:

The admin will then move to the inactive employee list. You can leave them there or follow the steps under the employee/manager section to continue with the deletion.


FAQ:
