# Deactivating a Member

### Overview

In the event you need to deactivate a member from your organization, you can easily do so via the members section. Once a member is deactivated, you can reissue the seat to a new member by clicking 'Invite People.' If you decide to not add any additional members, you will be able to remove the unused seat(s) and the following billing cycle will cost less.

### From the Members Section

Navigate to the member that you would like to deactivate and click the (•••) or 'more' button. Click 'Deactivate Member.' A dialog will appear asking you to confirm by clicking 'Deactivate.' This member will now appear (only to owners) as deactivated.&#x20;

To reactivate a member, follow the above steps but click 'Reactivate Member.'

**Note:** If this member is assigned to any parent companies, these will continue to remain in their respective workspaces but will now appear as unassigned from within the 'Assigned to' filter. To reassign the parent company reference [Assign Me to Shipper](/teams-and-agencies/assign-me-to-shipper.md).

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.shippercrm.com/settings/organization/members/deactivating-a-member.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
