This feature is used when a user is no longer employed, for example, or for other reasons that would require a user’s VA Network ID to be inactivated. This requires that you enter a precise date and a reason.
To inactivate a user, complete the following steps:
Select Manage Users.
To locate the user, you can either enter the User ID, the Last Name, or enter the Last Name and full or partial First Name with the wildcard character (for example: "Johna%").
Click Search.
The user's profile window will appear.
Click in the check box to the right of Inactivate. A check mark will appear indicating that the inactivate feature has been enabled. (To activate a user, uncheck the Inactivate check box.)
Enter the Inactivation Date and select an Inactivation Reason from the drop-down menu.
NOTE: The Inactivation Date cannot be a future date.
Select Submit.
A message will appear indicating that the user was updated successfully. Any changes made will be effective the next time the user tries to log into the application.
