# Changing Staff Member to Inactive

## Managing Staff Access While Keeping Records

If you prefer to maintain a record, you have the option to mark the staff member as inactive instead of deleting them. This action will revoke their access, and they won't receive any further emails from the system.

#### To inactivate a staff member:

1. Click `<` to the right of `Staff`.
2. In the expanded menu click `View All`.
3. Locate the staff member's profile that you wish to inactivate from the list.
4. Open their profile by selecting their name, and under the `Basic Information` tab, you'll find the option to `Edit`.
5. Change the `Status` to `Inactive` and click `Save`.

Once the staff is inactive, you would want to detach them from any class they are assigned to (and assign a new staff member). Here's an article that walks you through how ➡️ [Editing / Updating Assigned Staff of a Class](https://help.classmanager.com/en/attaching-a-new-staff-member-to-their-classes?hsLang=en)

Marking a staff member as inactive ensures they no longer have access while maintaining their records in the system. Remember to review and update any assigned classes to prevent scheduling issues.
