Deactivate and activate participant
Deactivate a participant that no longer takes part in a project, for example a partner that has left the consortium or a staff member who has left. Its history stays, but it can no longer be chosen for new work.
💡 Note: To deactivate or activate a participant, you need Edit rights to it (see Roles and access rights).
What deactivating does
- The participant can no longer be selected for activities and budget items.
- Existing links stay: activities, budget items and expenses that already belong to the participant are not changed.
- All sub-participants are deactivated as well.
- In the table, an inactive participant is marked with a pause icon. With Filter you can show or hide inactive participants.
Deactivating or activating a participant
- Open Participants and click the participant to open its sidebar.
- Scroll down and switch on Inactive to deactivate it, or switch it off to activate it again.
- Click Save Participant.
Tip: To deactivate or activate several participants at once, select them in the table and use bulk editing (Inactive). The Inactive switch appears only after a new participant has been saved for the first time.
To remove a participant completely, see Delete participants.
