Deactivate Organization and Child Organization

You can deactivate a root level organization or a child organization if the organization is no longer required. If a root level organization that you deactivate has child organizations below it, the child organizations are also deactivated. For example, consider the hierarchy, Documentation Management Company>>NA>>New York>>Islandia. Deactivating NA deactivates New York and Islandia. Deactivating only New York also deactivates Islandia. 

Note: You cannot deactivate the out of the box root level organization that has been created during tenant provisioning. However, you can deactivate the child organization or sibling organization belonging to the out of the box root level organization. 

Follow these steps:

  1. Navigate to MANAGE> ADMINISTRATION> Tools> Organizations.
  2. Select or search for the desired root level organization or child organization.
  3. Click the Image Modified icon.
  4. Click Yes to confirm the deactivation.
    The organization is deactivated.

Note: The deactivated organization is retained on all tickets, CIs, knowledge articles, and other transaction records for reporting and other purposes. However, the deactivated organization is not available for use in any new operations.

Organization Support Note

Analysts are working with many different organizations (or departments) and aren't always aware of special considerations such as upcoming renewals, recent upgrades, management changes and so on. With the Organization Note, an analyst will see key information about the requester's organization directly on the ticket. This keeps them up to date on the latest information for that organization so they can better handle the ticket and user.  

Administrators can add a support note to an organization. To do so, perform the following.:

  1. Navigate to Mange, Tools, and then Organizations.
  2. Select an existing organization and edit it or create a new Organization, click the Image Addedicon.
  3. Type the required note in the Support Note text box.
  4. All users that are part of this organization will now have the note associated with them. If the organization does not have any users in it, Select the Users tab and create a new user or relate an existing user to the Organization. See Manage Users to learn more.
  5. Click Save & Exit to save the Organization.

While creating or viewing a ticket, the support note will be shown based on the Requester and Requested For user. If the Requester's Organization has a note, it will be shown below the Organization field in red.:
