Delete or Suspend an LDAP Group or User
You may not delete an LDAP group or user from Rev as you would a Rev created group (from the Group or User module, Actions column).
There are two methods to removing an LDAP group from Rev:
Remove the group from Rev by deselecting it from the group import screen and perform an import again.
Remove the group from LDAP itself and perform an import again.
When you delete a group, whether through Rev or LDAP, user data and accounts are preserved (not deleted). However, they are placed in a suspended state.
Suspended LDAP user accounts will be removed from a suspended state when:
The group is re-imported again to Rev
The user account is added to another group in LDAP and the new group is imported to Rev.
The only time that imported user accounts are deleted from Rev is if the LDAP Connector itself is deleted.
You may manually suspend an LDAP user account as you would a Rev created user account. To activate it, you simply press the Activate button in the Actions column on the User module as you would a Rev user account.
LDAP user accounts that are not manually suspended (through the Actions drop-down UI) and that may be automatically suspended and then deleted as a result include:
Those accounts that are created and imported but then never log-in. An example of this may be a user account that leaves the company before logging-in.
These accounts may be permanently deleted upon an LDAP sync by selecting Delete Suspended Users Who have never logged in checkbox under the LDAP Server Synchronizations Setting section on the LDAP Connector device. Please keep in mind that if this checkbox is enabled, the Suspended account deletions will be permanent and will only include those accounts that have never been logged in; not the manually suspended accounts through the Users module UI and described above.
