Deprovisioning a User
The status of a user’s account is either Active or Deprovisioned. If an account is Active, users are able to login to Apporto. If an acount is Deprovisioned, users are unable to login to Apporto – but the users’ profiles (files and configurations) are persisted until their accounts are deleted.
Deprovisioned users are automatically deleted after a pre-defined time period (30 days by default). You may change the number of days before deletion in the Deprovisioning screen in Settings.
You may deprovision individual users or multiple users at once. Both may be accomplished via the Users screen.
