What is the best way to make a user inactive that allows them to be quickly reactivated instead of deleting and recreating

Hi Mark,

I am assuming you are talking about Snow License Manager access users. in the Snow Management and Configuration center you can create and edit users. to make the user inactive you can change the password, set a valid to date with a date in the past and remove any roles from the user account to prevent them from accessing any part of the system. You can find more information about the security view here or more about the roles privileges here

Hi Jelle sorry yes I am talking about SLM. We have AD integration so I am not too sure if resetting the password will help? I am asking because we have to make anyone that hasn't used the system in 30 days inactive but we wanted to ensure the users settings stay exactly the same roles and all so if they do come back it is easy to activate them again with the same roles ect they had before but by what you are saying that is not possible within the system

  In that case the best way to manage it is to remove them from your AD group.
  
  Kind regards,
