Active and Inactive Businesses

Making a Business Inactive keeps buyers and vendors out of your Business selectors without deleting them or their history. You can re-Activate a Business at any time.

Kept

Whether a Business is Active is set separately for each organisation. Switching a business off in your agency doesn’t affect any other agency. A Temporary Business is also hidden from pickers outside the Sale it was created in.

Make one business inactive

  1. On the Businesses screen, open the business.
  2. In the General section, switch off Active.
  3. Select Submit.

Change several at once

  1. On the Businesses screen, select the businesses.
  2. Open the actions menu and select Bulk Update [number] Businesses.
  3. Set the Active field and confirm.

This needs the Bulk Update Businesses feature. For temporary businesses, use Inactivate ([n]) Unmatched on the Temporary Businesses screen instead.

Result: Inactive businesses stop appearing in pickers. To bring one back, switch Active on.

Troubleshooting

If a Business you switched off is back in your pickers, someone may have added it again as a Connected Business, which switches it back to Active.

If you can’t find a Business you expected to find, check Is Active on the Businesses list before assuming it’s gone.
