How to Off-board an Employee using an Off-boarding Smart Ticket

When an employee leaves an organization, MyVCM allows you to create one ticket to off-board an employee when they depart, since access to multiple systems, devices, documents, and training needs to be removed.

A user cannot be removed from MyVCM until each and every system owner has confirmed that they have removed access. This is especially valuable in a time-sensitive situation such as an emergency employee termination.

Please note that while you can on-board multiple employees, you can only off-board one employee at a time. As ownership of items within MyVCM (e.g. documents, audit tasks etc.) needs to be reassigned. Deleting one user at a time ensures that work and ownership are being allocated correctly.

To access the off-boarding ability in MyVCM, click the 3 bars in the top right corner of any MyVCM page, and select ‘Users’. Once on the Users page, select the employee you want to off-board from the User’s grid, and click the gear icon in the top right corner, then click Off-board Selected User.

To create an off-boarding ticket:

To onboard an employee using a smart ticket, Click the + icon in the universal side tray to the right.
Click Ticket.
Select the System Templates tab.
Choose the system-provided smart ticket: Smart ticket - Off-board users.
Remove permissions
- Off-bording user: Select the user would like to off board.
- Off-boarding options: Choose how you would like to off-board this employee given the following two options:
  - Off-board & suspend user
    - This process allows you to immediately suspend the user and reassign all of their activities and artifacts, except private artifacts. To reassign private artifacts, you must choose “Delete user”.
  - Delete user
    - This process allows you to delete the user and reassign all of their activities and artifacts, including private artifacts.
    - This process will only delete the user and will not create any requests to remove the user from physical artifacts. If you want to ensure physical access is removed you must first use the 'Off-board & suspend user' process and only Delete the user once all physical access has been removed

Off-board & suspend user

As appropriate, click remove permission for Custodian, Consumer, Approver, Task Owner, Access List, Manager, and Static Groups.
Once finished removing permissions click Next to proceed.
