# How to Deactivate Dashboard Users

## Quick steps to deactivate a staff member on the Dashboard.

In TDC, users cannot be permanently deleted. Instead, Admins and Sales Managers can **deactivate** users when they no longer need Dashboard access.

---

### Deactivating a User

1. Navigate to the **Staff** tab in the top-right corner of the Dashboard.
2. Use the **search bar** to find the staff member you want to deactivate.
3. Click the **Deactivate** button next to their name.

Once deactivated, the staff member will no longer be able to log into TDC.
