To delete a user account, select the "Delete" button on the user profile:

Select delete on user profile

This will convert the employee to a regular contact.

Note: If you convert an employee to a regular contact, you will also need to change their email address to an email address that does not use an Associated Email Domain.

If the contact has an email address that uses an Associated Email Domain and "Auto Map Email Domains to Organisation Names" is checked in Account Settings, they will revert back to an employee.
