<p>Unfortunately, there isn't a way to re-activate an existing
user. You can only activate new users (policy level) and choose to
delete/disable/ignore orphaned users.</p>
<p>This does sound like an interesting feature though. I highly
recommend posting a suggestion to our <a href="http://ideas.hannonhill.com/">Idea Exchange</a> if you would like
for this feature to be considered for a future release.</p>
<p>I think your best bet would be to delete the users that become
orphaned so that when they are re-created they are enabled,
assuming your user policy is set to enable new users. The problem
there is you would lose history and audit information. Also, I
believe if the user still has active workflows or locked assets the
deletion would not occur.</p>
<p>Please let me know if you have any questions.</p>
<p>Thanks!</p></div>Ryan Griffithtag:help-archives.hannonhill.com,2010-02-09:Comment/387714442015-12-30T13:36:33Z2015-12-30T13:36:33Zldap - Deactivate Users<div><p>Hi Eric,</p>
<p>My apologies, I misread your comment; specifically when you
stated the user is placed back into an applicable group in
LDAP.</p>
<p>Speaking with the developers, the user should definitely be
reenabled and un-orphaned since the LDAP account would technically
be discovered again. I went ahead and logged this as a known defect
and assigned it to this discussion. You can track its progress in
the upper right-hand corner of this discussion; the status will
change from <em>Open</em> to <em>Close</em> when it has been
resolved.</p>
<p>Please let me know if you have any questions.</p>
<p>Thanks!</p></div>Ryan Griffithtag:help-archives.hannonhill.com,2010-02-09:Comment/387714442015-12-30T20:53:11Z2015-12-30T20:53:11Zldap - Deactivate Users<div><p>Thanks Ryan, I appreciate the update!</p></div>Erictag:help-archives.hannonhill.com,2010-02-09:Comment/387714442015-12-31T11:38:34Z2015-12-31T11:38:34Zldap - Deactivate Users<div><p>Not a problem at all, Eric.
