Activating and Deactivating Users

Activating and Deactivating Users

Activate/Deactivate Users

Sometimes in your organization, the users' hierarchical status may change or they may move to different teams. 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 Workerly 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 cancelled. You will be billed for the number of user licenses that you had bought.
  • The user will be listed under Inactive Users.
  • If you decide to activate the user again, you can activate the inactiveuser.

To deactivate a user

  1. Log in to the Zoho Workerly with Administrator privileges.
  2. Click Setup > Users & Control > Users.
  3. In the Users page, select the ActiveUsers view.
  4. In the Users list view, check the box against the user you wish to deactivate.
  5. Click Confirm Deactivation.

     
  6. The user will be deactivated and a system generated email will be sent to the corresponding user.

To activate a user

  3. In the Users List, select the checkbox against the user you wish to activate.
  4. The user will be activated and a system generated email will be sent to the corresponding user.
Note: Only active users are counted towards user licenses.

Delete Users

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

When you delete a user:

  1. You cannot undo the action. If you don't want the member to access Workerly 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 Workerly. 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 re-invite a deleted user. If you extend an invitation to a user you have deleted, the user will be added again in Zoho Workerly as any other new user.
  4. Only the Admin of your account can delete a user.
  5. A user deleted from Zoho Workerly 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 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.
    Read the consequences of deleting a user and confirm the action. The user will be deleted from Zoho Workerly and will appear under the Deleted Users view.
