# Making Users Active/Inactive

When a user no longer needs access to Rev.io, regardless of whether their role no longer requires it or if they are no longer with your company, you can set them to an *Inactive* **Status**. Inactive users are unable to log into a Rev.io environment and essentially have no active permissions to perform any actions. 

Rev.io does not allow you to delete users. However, setting users to inactive accomplishes the same functions of preventing that user from logging in and removing them from reporting.

| Users can be created in either the legacy Billing application or in Rev.io and will sync across both systems. However, users from legacy Billing will not display in the User Management list view until they log into Rev.io for the first time. |

There are 2 ways to make users active/inactive: 

-   From the User Management list view
-   From the Edit User screen for the specific user

## **Permissions Required**

Adding new active users to the system requires the *Create new users, roles, and user groups* permission. Reactivating a user whose current **Status** is *Inactive* requires the *Edit/Enable users, roles, and user groups* permission. 

Changing a user's **Status** to Inactive requires the *Disable users, and delete roles and user groups* permission.

## **Make Active/Inactive from the List View**

To set a user as active/inactive from the User Management screen, simply click the ellipsis at the end of the row and select **Set to Active** or **Set to Inactive** from the menu. Inactive users display with an Inactive **Status** on the User Management screen.
