4º Saving the changes:

After making the desired changes, click “Save All” in the lower corner of the window.

A success notification will appear in the lower-left corner, indicating the user was updated successfully.

5º Confirming the status change:

After saving, check the user list: the “Is Active” column will show “Yes” if the user is active or “No” if inactive.

Best practices:

  1. Deactivate when leaving the team: as soon as a collaborator leaves, deactivate their account to prevent unauthorized access.

  2. Check for pending tasks first: ensure there are no open tasks or processes before deactivating.

  3. Record deactivations: maintain a history of deactivated accounts for auditing and possible reactivation.
