❗How to delete employee groups

⚠️ Please note that each employee can only be associated with one legal entity. If you have employees who work in multiple markets or for different companies within your organization, we recommend including them in the main legal entity or the one where they work the majority of their hours. Additionally, consider the currency used by the specific legal entity, as the employee's pay-slips will be generated in the same currency.
