Managing Active and Inactive User Access (Cloud)

Managing Active and Inactive User Access (Cloud)

User access in Visual Matrix can be controlled by activating or deactivating a user account. Deactivating a user prevents them from logging into the system while keeping their profile and history intact. This is useful when an employee leaves the property or no longer requires system access.
Instead of deleting users, Visual Matrix uses an Active/Inactive status: 
- Active=Yes-User can log in; 
- Active=No-User cannot log in
Notes
Deactivating a user does not remove their data or past activity.
Path: Management > User Settings > Security

Instructions

1. Find the user in the list. Use filters if needed.



2. In the Active column, change: Yes → No



3. Click Save to apply the update. The user will no longer appear in the Active list.


Notes
Changes are not applied until saved.

View Inactive Users

To view inactive users, change the filter from Active to Inactive or All.
