To prevent missed revenue opportunities and keep a clean, organized database, it’s important to regularly review and manage items assigned to deactivated users. This ensures that no crucial deals, leads, contacts or activities are left unattended.

You can transfer ownership during user deactivation or use the data cleanup dashboard to do it later. You also have the option to mark items as complete or delete outdated ones.

Here’s a quick guide on managing open deals assigned to deactivated users. You can follow these steps to handle other items as well.

Steps to review open deals assigned to deactivated users

Access the list of open deals

Navigate to Settings > Usage > Data cleanup.

Then, on “Open deals” click “View deals”.

You’ll be directed to a list view showing all open deals assigned to deactivated users.

Customizing filters

To refine the list, click the Edit icon next to the current filter and enter “Open deals assigned to deactivated users”.

If necessary, add additional parameters to narrow down the list of deals. Then, select “Save as new” to save the customized filter.

Actions to take through bulk editing or individually:

• Transfer ownership: Assign the deal to a new active user.
• Mark as won/lost: Update the deal status to reflect its outcome.
• Delete: Permanently remove deals that are no longer relevant.

When transferring ownership, you also have the option to update linked items. This will overwrite the current owner of the following:

• Undone activities
• Contact persons
• Organizations

After selecting a new owner, check the options for the appropriate linked items in the bulk edit panel. Confirm the changes by selecting “Edit deals”.

Any selected linked items will also be transferred to the new owner, ensuring a seamless update across your database.
