Activating or deactivating users allows you to quickly control who can access the platform, ensuring security and efficient access management.

1º Accessing the user administration module:


In the lower-left side menu, click on “Users”.

This section displays all registered users, allowing you to activate, deactivate, or edit each record.

2º Selecting the user to activate or deactivate:


  1. Locate the desired user in the user list.
  2. Click on the row corresponding to the user to open their profile.

3º Activating or deactivating the user:


  1. In the user edit panel, scroll down to locate the “Is Active?” toggle at the bottom of the tab.
  2. Click the button to switch the user’s status:

    • If Active: the button will be blue; click it to suspend access.
    • If Deactivated: the button will be gray; click it to reactivate access.
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.

    Conclusion:

    You have learned how to activate or deactivate a user account, quickly controlling who has access to the platform. If you have any questions, please contact our support team.
