User Configuration 〉 Activate/deactivate or delete users
 
Activate/deactivate or delete users
It is possible to deactivate a user account, for example if an employee is temporarily absent. The deactivated user can then no longer log on to SwyxServer. However, the user’s call routing (Call Forwarding, etc.) will continue to function and all his or her settings will remain intact.
* 
In a SwyxWare for Data Center installation a deactivated user will also be counted for the license report (Configured User). Select the feature profile 'Deactivated' for the deactivated user. Users with this profile are not included in the license data reporting.
* 
In SwyxON, the ordered number of users is recorded in the usage report, even if these persons are allocated to the function profile “Deaktiviert” (“Deactivated”).
* 
If the rule " lock user after failed login attempts" is activated in SwyxServer configuration, then users can be automatically deactivated by the system and any potentially terminal devices and clients logged on may be logged off. See Password settings.
