Learn how to deactivate, reactivate, and delete employee profiles on Sling.

Deactivate Employee Profiles

Deactivating an employee does not remove their historical data from Sling. You will still be able to view their timesheet and report details. Deactivated employees do not count toward your total active user count, so you will not be charged for them. 

 

Note: Admins can perform this action for any employee in the company. Managers are restricted to employees for their assigned locations.
