Activate/Deactivate Users

Sometimes in your organization, the users' hierarchical status may change or they may move to different business units. In such cases, you might have to deactivate those users after transferring ownership of the records to other users. Note that deactivating a user is different from deleting a user. When you deactivate a user:

• The user will no longer be able to access the Recruit account.
  
• No one will be able to log into the service using the deactivated ID.
  
• You are free to use the same user license to add another user. 
  
• The user license is not canceled. You will be billed for the number of user licenses that you had bought.
  
• The user will be listed under Deactivated Users.
  
• If you decide to activate the user again, you can re-invite the deactivated user.

Delete Users

When a member of your organization quits or is replaced you may have to delete the member from your Recruit account. Note that deleting a user from Zoho Recruit is not the same as closing their Zoho account. They are deleted only from Zoho Recruit.

When you delete a user

1. You cannot undo the action. If you don't want the member to access Recruit but you are not sure about deleting the user, you can deactivate them.
   
2. The records that belong to the deleted user remain in Zoho Recruit. You can transfer them to another member at any time. It is recommended that you transfer the records before you delete a user.
   
3. You cannot reinvite a deleted user. If you extend an invitation to a user you have deleted, the user will be added again in Zoho Recruit as any other new user.
   
4. Only the Super Admin of your account can delete a user.
   
5. A user deleted from Zoho Recruit will still be able to access other Zoho services without hassles with the same email address.
   
6. All the integrations configured by the deleted user will be lost after you delete them.
   
7. Deleting a user does not cancel the user's license. To cancel license you must manage your subscriptions.
   

To delete a user

1. Click Settings > Setup > Users & Control > Users.
   
2. Click on the user you wish to delete.
   
3. Click Delete this user button present at the end of the User Details section.
