Firstly, it’s important to note that an inactive employees do in fact count towards your total number of active employees. If an employee is active and you no longer want them to count towards your total, you will need to archive them.

Note: Making an employee inactive still counts towards your 'active' total. They need to be archived in order for them to no longer count.
