De-activating vs deleting a user account
There is a distinct difference between deleting a user account, and setting the active status to inactive.
Deleting a user account will result in that user account being removed in all areas of the system. You will not see their name appear anywhere, and cannot create another user account with the same user name. This option is best used if the staff member will no longer return to your office.
De-activating a user account will temporarily hide the user account, and has the option of being reactivated. This option is best used if a staff member is taking a leave of absence of an extended period of time.
