How do I hide future and ex-employees from the employee search box?

By default, the employee search box at the top of the employees page will allow you to search for all employee records in the system, regardless of whether the employees are active in the company. You can change this to only show current, live employees by going to the administration section and selecting “Employee List/Search Options” from the “Employee Administration” section.

On this page, change the setting for the “Employee Search” dropdown list to define whether employees who have left or those who have not yet started should be shown in the employee search box and click “Save Settings” to store the changes.
