What to do when a team member leaves?

When a team member leaves your organization or changes projects, here are some best practices for closing their account.

Recommendations

We do NOT recommend deleting a member's account. Deleting a member removes them from the system entirely, including all the data from tasks they worked on in previous sprints/projects used for historical reporting purposes. This is generally not advisable except for erroneously created member accounts (such as duplicates).

Here are a few ways to handle these types of situations.
