3. Manage Inactive Approver Users (optional)
Inactive users who failed to login within the set period or respond to the warning emails but are the an account's only approver on an account or have orders awaiting their approval cannot be automatically deactivated. Instead the system adds them to the Inactive Approver Users list with deactivation suspended. This means the user's account is still active and they can login to the website.
You can manually flag such a user an approver on this list to be deactivated the next time the task is run. (However, they will only be deactivated if the conditions preventing deactivation no longer apply.)
To view and manage edit inactive approver users found by the system:
- On the Inactive User Management page, scroll down to Approver User Management.
