Thynk is a Salesforce-native hospitality commercial platform for hotel and venue sales, catering, events and MICE.

## Full answer

Deactivating users promptly keeps Thynk secure and data well organised.
Deactivate users as soon as they leave or no longer need access.
Before deactivating, transfer their accounts, contacts, bookings and open tasks to a colleague.
Update report subscriptions and approval steps that include the user.
Deactivate rather than delete, so the history of their work is kept.
Review active users regularly.
These steps protect sensitive data and keep ownership clear.
