What the implications are of deactivating users
How to deactivate users in Thynk
When a Thynk user leaves your company, you will need to deactivate them in Thynk, instead of deleting them. If you deleted the user, you would delete all sorts of valuable booking histories and activities, which you should never do.
What are the implications of deactivating users?
The first thing you will want to prevent is for the user to access the data, so deactivating them will remove their access.
Sales activities will still stay on the deactivated user, until the Corporate/Group administrator transfers them to the new user. For instructions on this, please refer to the Salesforce Help Article .
Accounts, Contacts and Bookings will still show the deactivated user’s name. These will need to be transferred by the Corporate/Group Administrator.
The implications of transferring bookings to a new user can be very significant as they may affect bonuses.

Check your SOPs if there is a guideline on how quickly a user should be deactivated. Your IT department will have procedures in place as well to prohibit the user to access company information on all systems. It’s always a good idea to deactivate them in Thynk as well.
Always get your leadership’s permission before deactivating a user.
Once you have deactivated your user, your Corporate/Group administrator will still be able to mass transfer the user’s accounts, contact, bookings to the new manager. Again, this should be performed with your leadership’s permission because typically they will decide how to divide up the leaving manager’s bookings, activities, accounts etc.
