Harris, 47, was the manager of Millwall for the first time between 2015 and 2019.
However, he left the South London club by resignation in October 2019 before going on to join Cardiff City the following month.
Harris rejoined the Lions in February on an 18-month contract with the club, threatened with relegation from the Championship.
The Lions were just one point above the bottom three, but he led them to a 13th-place finish, winning all five of their final games to the season.
However, his term as manager has been cut short after a confirmed statement by Millwall.
Harris is will step down as Millwall manager after the clash against Middlesborough on Saturday.
This means he will have two more games in the dugout, with the first against table-toppers Sheffield United on Wednesday evening.
Despite the club’s strong form at the end of the previous campaign under Harris, it has not been continued this term.
Millwall are currently 13th in the division, having seen their nine-game unbeaten streak come to an end in their last match.

On Saturday, they were beaten by Coventry City 1-0 at The Den.
It was after that result that Harris claimed people needed a reality check.
He said: “That is where people have to get their heads out of the clouds and realise how well we’ve done to achieve what we have so far. And how tough it is for us as a group.
“Right at the end we put the ball in the box and one of my young centre-forwards and one of my young wingers are standing outside of the penalty area.
“It shows a lot of learning we have got in front of us.
“You miss Romain [Esse], you miss Japhet [Tanganga] and you miss Jake Cooper.
“Three players that probably get in any Championship team.
“Just a reminder to people, the thickos, that when you take the three best players out of the team that this is Millwall Football Club.”
