To deactivate an organization, you must ensure that you have the appropriate privileges and scope. The MA can deactivate all organizations. GAs and OAs can deactivate all organizations in their scope.

To deactivate one or more organizations:

  1. Ensure that you are logged in with the required privileges and scope to deactivate the organization.
  2. Activate the Organizations tab.
  3. Under the Manage Organizations section, click the Search Organization link to display the Search Organization page.
  4. Enter the complete or partial information of the organization you want to search and click Search.

  5. Select one or more organizations that you want to deactivate.
  6. Click Deactivate to disable the selected organizations.

    A message box appears.
