I'm doing account cleanup and I need to clear out abandoned accounts. The only process I've managed to figure out is VERY MANUAL and it seems like this should be automated. I want a solution that doesn't require hiring a developer.

Thanks Elisabeth - I would also advise to toggle the Disabled check box on the user profile as well, that makes the user profile unusable for a user profile lookup at login time.
Depending on the version of the software in question, there are multiple ways to do authentication, roughly they come down to either:
Once you are authenticated, then a Content Management user profile lookup will happen as that will provide the necessary Authorization to the logged in user providing UserRoles and UserGroups. Do note that if you used External Authentication, that a disabled domain account, would not never allow a user profile hit anyway.
In general we think that the user profiles are part of a historical database and true deletion is not advised. I hope this clarifies the generics, and get you going as we are missing some details in the initial question.
